Also, Kefka a diplomat?? Please don't tell me you're serious. The words "Kefka", and "Diplomat" should never be mentioned in the same sentence without inserting the words "is not a" between them.
I didn't mean that Kefka is a diplomatic kind of guy. I mean that he is sent out as a diplomat/ambassador for Gestahl.

I don't think he was a general. He's never called "General Kefka". You hear "General Leo" all the time, and you hear of Celes being an imperial general. But Kefka isn't ever called a general or a military officer of any sort which leads me to believe that he functions as ambassador or an advisor, of sorts.
