Suikoden IV cast

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

Major characters

Lazlo (Hero)

	Nickname(s):	Marvin Gaye
	Star:	Tenkai
	Age:	?
	First Appearance:	Part 1

Our hero starts out as one of many Knights of Gaien and as the best friend and slave of one Snowe Vingerhut. And as we all know, best friend + slave = sex partner. He ends up with the totally shitty Rune of Punishment, because that's just what happens to heroes in Suikoden, but he's still much more bitter about Snowe dumping him like a prick than anything else.

Snowe Vingerhut

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Tenan
	Age:	19
	First Appearance:	Part 1

Snowe is the hottest, richest young thing in Razril. As such, he's handed sweet positions in his daddy's military, not to mention innocent teenage boys with big doe eyes. When things start going not so well for Snowe we see that he's got more mental and emotional hangups than Billy Corgan and Robert Smith put together. Later he wears a dog collar and it's really hot, but he's still a wanker.

Stars of Destiny

Katarina

	Nickname(s):	none
	Star:	Tenjyu
	Age:	30
	First Appearance:	Part 1

Glen's second-in-command in the Gaien Knights, Katarina seems like a pretty straight-laced, serious woman. Surprisingly...no, wait, she is actually serious and straight-laced. She does creep around after Glen like she's some scorned lover, which is actually pretty disturbing when you find out that he's her father. Yuck, she mixed her incest with her work relationship.

Other characters

Glen

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

Poor Glen. All he's ever done for people is be a kind, supportive father figure. Well, except for Snowe, whom he seems to enjoy smacking around like a bitch. (Who doesn't?) And what does he get for his kindness and mentoring of others? The goddamn Rune of Punishment. And a load of underlings so incompetent that his whole Knighthood completely collapses after he's gone. God. Ungrateful kids.

Lord Vingerhut

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

Just how freaking rich is this guy? He's so rich, he owns the damn military. The Gaien Knights are his own fucking personal army of people in ugly clothing. Also, he's rich enough to pay everyone in Razril to like Snowe. I mean, that has to be the explanation. 'Cause Snowe's a dick.

Brandeau

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

Brandeau is the first of many bearers of the Rune of Punishment we will meet in the game, and he's probably the coolest. He's a bad-ass pirate (or a bad ass-pirate, if you like) with a sexy six-pack and a voice that indicates he's been hitting the liquor pretty hard for about five decades. He dies before we really get to know him better, but we can at least remember him for famously causing pain to Snowe's arm. Good times.

Assassin

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

Because this guy has a character portrait, he gets to be included here. That said, I have no earthly idea why he has a character portrait--he dies after one battle and cut-scene and is never seen or heard from again. But he does look like an undead mushroom, and that's pretty cool.

Colton

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

Colton plays the role of the elder statesman on the side of villainy: a weathered old salt who is there to guide the young, hot bad guy in the ways of antagonism. He plays another role, that of the parent of another character. This seems like a double guarantee that he will die before the end of the game, but he doesn't. That Suikoden IV, shaking up the stereotypes!

Leknaat

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

You know who Leknaat is. I'm not writing this again.
