Revision as of 17:02, 13 August 2012

Characters in each section are listed in order of recap appearance.

Major characters

Riou (Hero)

	Nickname(s):	Barry White
	Star:	Tenkai
	Age:	?
	First Appearance:	Part 1

Our doe-eyed, fashionably-dressed (*cough*), ever-silent hero. Member of the Unicorn Brigade with his "friend" Jowy, he also has a famous father. Gee, that's never been done before. He uses tonfa, a weapon possibly even more phallic than the gunblade, making him an instant hit with ladies AND gents.

Jowy Atreides

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	none
	Age:	17
	First Appearance:	Part 1

Barry's childhood friend. In the grand Suikoden tradition, it obviously goes a fair bit beyond friendship, as far as he's concerned. Add to the mix that Jowy has Daddy issues, and we are in store for one sexually confused boy. Oh, and his name and avatar keep changing.

Luca Blight

	Nickname(s):	Adolf Hitler
	Star:	none
	Age:	27
	First Appearance:	Part 1

Prince Luca gets his jollies from making people squeal like pigs, setting things on fire and from cleansing the world of "filth"-"filth" being, in this case, anyone who isn't him. And to extend the Hitler resemblance even more, he has Daddy issues, too.

Viktor

	Nickname(s):	Bear
	Star:	Tenko
	Age:	32
	First Appearance:	Part 1

Viktor is largely the same meat-headed oaf that he was in Suikoden I, but he's three years older and suddenly in charge of a group of mercenaries. Who in the hell would let this guy be the boss of anyone? More importantly, he looks like a bear.

Flik

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Tenan
	Age:	28
	First Appearance:	Part 1

Unlike Viktor, Flik actually changes a little bit since we last saw his blue-clad ass in Suikoden I. For one thing, he's still obsessed with Odessa, but he's not a complete dillhole about it. For another, he's cool now. What three years can do.

Nanami

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Tenjyu
	Age:	16
	First Appearance:	Part 2

Barry's sister. Nanami is excitable, eager and very, very protective. Jowy would no doubt like to ditch her so he and his "man" could have some alone time, but she'll have none of that. She and the Hero aren't related by blood, but according to Jowy they're "a real family." I shed a tear.

Shu

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Tenkai
	Age:	?
	First Appearance:	Part 1

Leon Silverberg

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	none
	Age:	?
	First Appearance:	Part 1

Stars of Destiny

Barbara

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Chison
	Age:	36
	First Appearance:	Part 1

The warehouse wench at Viktor's fort. It's almost refreshing to see a fat chick who isn't evil or psycho…then again, it's not like Barbara's important to the plot, either. Baby steps, people.

Leona

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Chihi
	Age:	32
	First Appearance:	Part 1

Your typical "lonely, bitter bar maiden with a heart of gold and a delicious booty." She, indeed, runs the bar at Viktor's fort, and makes a point of hitting on our hero. A woman in an RPG thinking the hero is cute? I know. You're so shocked.

Gengen

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Chitan
	Age:	17
	First Appearance:	Part 1

Gengen carries on the Suikoden tradition of Kobolds being annoying, proud-without-reason, speech-impaired gits. Sadly, most of the other characters think he's the bees' knees for some reason.

Tuta

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Chijyu
	Age:	11
	First Appearance:	Part 1

Dr. Huan's medical assistant. I only know Tuta is male because I've played Suikoden III and he actually gets some testosterone by then. His testosterone is practically in the negative numbers at this point.

Eilie

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Tenzai
	Age:	17
	First Appearance:	Part 1

A gypsy knife-thrower who travels and performs with her sister Rina and her brother Bolgan. She's extremely pushy and stubborn, and yes, she has a major thing for the Hero. She tries-and fails-to hide that fact.

Rina

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Tenken
	Age:	18
	First Appearance:	Part 1

Eilie's older sister and Suikoden II's resident ho. Eilie is greatly embarrassed by her behavior, but really wishes she could be that forward with men. Rina reads tarot cards as part of their traveling show, and more than likely tells everyone their fortune is to have sex with her behind the nearest tree.

Bolgan

	Nickname(s):	Andre the Giant
	Star:	Tenpai
	Age:	16
	First Appearance:	Part 1

Bolgan is the youngest of the three travelers, and as such is the biggest and dumbest. (Get it? The big guy is the little brother? Ha!) His trick is to breathe fire and to say stupid giant-type things.

Mukumuku

	Nickname(s):	Muku Ranger Red
	Star:	Chima
	Age:	6
	First Appearance:	Part 2

The first of the Squirrel Ranger Team, and the leader, since he's in red. Found hiding behind a tree in the Hero's backyard. Maybe the tree is their secret Squirrel Ranger Vehicle. Or not.

Rikimaru

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Chian
	Age:	25
	First Appearance:	Part 2

The Gang finds this wino/beggar passed out near the inn in Ryube. His character development? He likes food. What a winner.

Millie

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Chiku
	Age:	14
	First Appearance:	Part 2

Suikoden II jumps on the fanboy eye candy stereotype bandwagon early with this girl: she's sugary, she's well-endowed, she's wearing a sailor outfit, she's 14. Smell the spank material. And she has a very scary pet named Bonaparte.

Kinnison

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Chisin
	Age:	18
	First Appearance:	Part 2

I would call Kinnison a granola-munching hippie for his complaints about Highland destroying his forest home, but he's a hunter, also, and hippies don't dig killing animals. Whatever. His dog is cool, and that's all that matters.

Shiro

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Chitai
	Age:	9
	First Appearance:	Part 2

He's a big white wolf, hence the name. His favorite activities include saying "Whooooooooo" and eating cuddly animals. Therefore he's the game's best character.

Zamza

	Nickname(s):	Lawrence of Assholia
	Star:	Chisin
	Age:	29
	First Appearance:	Part 2

Another random catch for your party. Zamza dresses like an Arabian and is convinced of his utter, incomparable coolness. The reality? He's a wuss and a jackass to boot. If I could have him killed and still get the game's best ending, I would.

Apple

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Chifuku
	Age:	18
	First Appearance:	Part 2

Apple is technically a strategist, but I prefer to think of her as a Coattails Clinger. She sucks in the realm of battle tactics, which is good, because it means we get cooler strategists to make up for her incompetence. She's also a master of saying really stupid things. In short: I hate her.

Hanna

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Tensatsu
	Age:	29
	First Appearance:	Part 2

Poor Hanna. She must have been designed during a lunch break. There's nothing really outstanding about her. In appearance, in character, in battle, she's just there. Even her manliness is unimpressive.

Tsai

	Nickname(s):	Tsai of the Divine Spear
	Star:	Tenyu
	Age:	37
	First Appearance:	Part 3

A weapon smith living the hermit lifestyle in Ryube Village, Tsai has a divine spear by reputation, but I'm willing to bet the legendary divinity of his spear wouldn't hold up to testing.

Kiba

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Tenmou
	Age:	47
	First Appearance:	Part 3

The leader of Highland's 3rd Royal Company. He's loyal to the King, and not the Prince. This is our less-than-subtle clue that Kiba's really a good guy stuck under the leadership of a really bad man.

Hilda

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Chiin
	Age:	33
	First Appearance:	Part 4

She runs the White Deer Inn east of Muse with her husband and son. She doesn't have much personality worth mentioning, but she's got major diamond lust that she tries, in vain, to hide. Typical chick.

Alex

	Nickname(s):	Lloyd
	Star:	Chisu
	Age:	36
	First Appearance:	Part 4

Hilda's unibrowed, bowl-cut, treasure-obsessed husband. He hates the rural inn life and wants to find a bounty of gold so he can move his family someplace nice. Hopefully wherever that is, they'll have a decent barber there.

Clive

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Tensyo
	Age:	27
	First Appearance:	Part 5

Clive's a gunner from the Howling Voice Guild, and he's been sent to track down Elza, who stole some shit from his bosses. He takes his mission very seriously, but isn't very good at it--after all, he requires the help of a gay teenage boy just to find a boat across a lake.

Jess

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Tenku
	Age:	24
	First Appearance:	Part 5

Lady Anabelle's infatuated, assholish assistant. He's one of those annoying civilian politican types who talks a big game but doesn't really understand what War and Hardship are all about. And he'd be shot in a second on the battlefield, wearing those bright yellow pants. Duh.

Dr. Huan

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Chirei
	Age:	34
	First Appearance:	Part 5

Tuta's boss, and the bestest doctor in the whole wide world! But we see none of his fat cash--he lives in a very modest building in the middle of Muse, with only a sexually confused little boy to assist him. Maybe medicine in Jowston is socialized or something.

Anita

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Tenkyu
	Age:	29
	First Appearance:	Part 5

Some random warrior chick Barry meets in Muse. She apparently has some rival that drives her up the wall, and she just loves being hit on and waited on by effeminate young men. And though she's a seasoned fighter, she still chooses to wear sexy chick armor that exposes a bunch of skin. Right.

Fitcher

	Nickname(s):	Big Gay Fitcher
	Star:	Tenritsu
	Age:	32
	First Appearance:	Part 5

A seemingly random messenger of Muse who becomes marginally important in the grand scheme of things. Going by appearances, this guy is easily as gay as our tiara-wearing hero, and his nancy-boy attitude doesn't help matters. The picture says it all, folks.

Camus

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Chiki
	Age:	27
	First Appearance:	Part 6

Head of the Red Knights of Matilda. Camus, despite the reference to a 20th century existentialist, is straight out of the pages of an Arthurian romance. Fortunately, I’ve never seen piles and piles of Lancelot x Gallahad slash, something I can’t say about Camus and Miklotov.

Miklotov

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Chimou
	Age:	26
	First Appearance:	Part 6

Opposite Camus as the leader of Matilda’s Blue Knights. Smell the yaoi. Miklotov is the noble idealist--he believes it’s their duty as knights to help people in need. Clearly, this conflicts with his boss’ view that their duty is to sit on their asses and watch people die. Bad work environment.

Hauser

	Star:	Chison

	First Appearance:	Part 1

Other characters

Rowd

	Nickname(s):	The Prick
	Star:	none
	Age:	29
	First Appearance:	Part 1

Captain of Barry and Jowy's unit in the Unicorn Brigade. More importantly, he's a total asshole who uses anyone and everyone possible in order to get promoted in the Highland Army. Thankfully, this behavior gets him nowhere.

Pohl

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	none
	Age:	?
	First Appearance:	Part 1

A self-important dweeb who managed to be special enough to get his own character portrait. Don't ask me; I don't know why, either. He enjoys bossing around "kids" at Viktor's mercenary fort, even though he's barely an adolescent himself, from the looks of things. But don't worry-he won't be around long enough to get too irritating.

Genkaku

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	none
	Age:	63 (deceased)
	First Appearance:	Part 2

Barry and Nanami's famous dad. Or grandpa. Or foster parent. Whatever. They aren't related by blood, but Barry nonetheless ends up inheriting Genkaku's old Bright Shield Rune, ensuring that everyone he meets looks at him as some kind of legacy kid. Barry and Nanami buried him under a penis stone.

Jillia Blight

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	none
	Age:	16
	First Appearance:	Part 2

Jillia Blight is Luca's younger sister and the Princess of Highland. Because she's an RPG Princess, she's very proper and polite and, of course, much saner than her big bro. Like that's saying anything. Be prepared to have several men make asses of themselves in front of her.

Bonaparte

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Chitan
	Age:	?
	First Appearance:	Part 2

Millie's pet demon pig. It is terrifying.

Pilika

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	none
	Age:	6
	First Appearance:	Part 2

Pilika's family nursed Jowy back to health in Toto Village. Pilika calls him "Uncle Jowy," which makes me puke. She's a happy, healthy, sweet-as-sugar tot…. Gee, I wonder if anything bad will happen to her.

Solon Jhee

	Nickname(s):	Salon Jhee
	Star:	none
	Age:	31
	First Appearance:	Part 3

Head of the 2nd Company. He's extremely cocky, which may or may not be due to his masses of hair gel seeping into and corrupting his brain. He's Prince Luca's loyal right-hand man, which means he probably won't last until the end of the game.

Culgan

	Nickname(s):	Richard Gere
	Star:	none
	Age:	29
	First Appearance:	Part 3

One half of the Loyal Henchmen Duo of the Highland Army. Culgan is extremely serious and cautious, the sober yin to Seed's raging yang. This means they want each other. 39 million Culgan/Seed doujinshi artists can't be wrong.

Seed

	Nickname(s):	Julia Roberts
	Star:	none
	Age:	26
	First Appearance:	Part 3

Culgan's tag team buddy in Highland. He's a hothead who likes to attack first and think second. We rarely, if ever, see this attitude demonstrated by action in battle, but it must be true, because Exposition!Culgan said so.

Leknaat

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	none
	Age:	?
	First Appearance:	Part 3

Since the end of Suikoden I, Leknaat has gone from being the imperial horoscope chick to a general purveyor of magical exposition. The improved character artwork in this game allows us to see that she's really hot.

Elza

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	none
	Age:	?
	First Appearance:	Part 5

A scarred blonde lady running away from Clive because she stole some guns or something. She has a good time making Clive look like an idiot, which is a fun quality in a female RPG character.

Anabelle

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	none
	Age:	34
	First Appearance:	Part 5

The mayor of Muse, and Viktor's conveniently-placed love interest. Despite that, she's a very capable lady and doesn't at all show the trappings of your typical RPG female. This, of course, means she's going to bite the big one sooner or later. Actually, sooner.

Gorudo

	Nickname(s):	Wart
	Star:	none
	Age:	37
	First Appearance:	Part 6

The Meanie!Leader of the Matilda Knights. He’s corrupt and cruel, and uses his position as liege lord of the Matilda Knights to get people to kiss his ass. But he gets his in the end, because ugly bad guys always do.

Makai

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	none
	Age:	31
	First Appearance:	Part 6

The weak-chinned, nancy-boy representative of Two River. He’s a big pussy and doesn’t want to fight the Highlanders. And he’s a bigoted elitist until he has his Big Revelation. Not much else to him.

Granmeyer

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	none
	Age:	52
	First Appearance:	Part 6

Granmeyer’s the Mayor of South Window. He must be dumb, if he trusts Viktor’s mercs farther than he can throw them. He further shows his dumbness by having Freed as his right-hand man. His crazy amounts of dumb get him killed, too. Just dumb.

Gustav Pendragon

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	none
	Age:	47
	First Appearance:	Part 6

Another of the Cornelius Fudge-like "let’s just stick our heads in the sand and pretend this isn’t happening" crowd of the City State. He kind of looks like Brock from Pokémon after about thirty years of aging.

Neclord

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	none
	Age:	29
	First Appearance:	Part 1

Star Dragon Sword

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	none
	Age:	29
	First Appearance:	Part 1
