Sephiroth never wanted to destroy the Planet, but to simply wound it. He would sit at the center of the wound where the Lifestream would gather in order to repair it. There he could gain devine power and emerge as a god. He planned to recreate life in his own image. When Sephiroth entered the Lifestream the first time, the truth about what he believed in was finally revealed(which I never knew). When Jenova planned to use Sephiroth for it's own bidding he turned against it. The use of "Mother" after Sephiroth killed President Shinra is a dead metaphor. And he never relates himself to the Cetra from that point on. Goth or "emo" could be name calling on the internet I guess. I would consider Sephiroth "emotional". Sephiroth was always a man of a few words. But many do not realize that his past relationships with others reflected on his decision. Sephiroth wanted to become a divine power because he believed he was more then a monster. Only one person has ever influenced Sephiroth - Angeal Hewley, who said that no matter what you become you should always have dreams and aspirations.
Kuja was evil, but he did realize the wrong he did in the end. What made Kuja interesting is how he communicated with others; I thought that was brillant. Kuja pretty much had hate induced into him; being around Garland for most of his life. Even though he formed his own idea apart from Garland his jealousy influenced his actions against Zidane. I wouldn't just say he was trying to destroy life as we know it but also make a point.
Kefka had a shallow soul, and really expressed no other interest then killing period. He was just your usual murderer on a larger scale with magic. Not saying his agenda wasn't simple especially with others trying to stop you. He became God-like and almost like all villains in this case, he felt that the life of human's had no meaning. It's the end the world as we know it. The heroes try to convince him but they simply can't. One last battle must be fought; you get the picture. Whatever evil possessed Kefka is more deadly then it's person.
Sephiroth and Kuja wantedto be more then what they were created for. Sephiroth was influenced by his past, and with protocol holding over Kuja he wanted to desperately break it. Some how world domination or destruction evolves from that. As for Kefka he simply wanted to dominate others. But what makes me laugh is that once he gains the power he's like...."f&ck this sh!t; kill them all".
