A guide to which levels characters receive rune slots at.
Rune Slots
In Suikoden 3, the playable characters vary in when they get each rune slot available. Here is a complete table to help you. An asterisk means he or she(or it) has that rune slot available upon recruitment.

Rune slots with grey backgrounds are unavailable. Those with rune names have those runes locked into place. White slots with numbers are the levels at which those slots are gained; blank white slots are available from when the character is level 1.

* Chris and Hugo gain different True Runes (which one is dependent on your decision) at a specific point in the story. The runes equipped on their RHs prior to that will be placed back in the inventory. Before that point, and in the short time where they lose their True Runes (this part also applies to Geddoe and Sasarai), the rune slot will be open, or if they have not yet reached the level indicated in the box, will have no available rune slot.
