Characters
He challenges for battles and is troubled as the son of the local lord.
* Snowe Vingerhut
* 19 years old
From his well mannered and soft looks, Snowe gives off the fact that he lives the high life. As the succesor of the local lord, Vingerhut family, who the orphaned Hero is the servant of, he is trying to teach himself the right and wrong constantly. He is a knight-in-training of the Gaien Knights, and always worries for the sake of the Hero who has no relatives.
"Insecurities? What are you saying? The time to put my own power to use for Gaien has finally come. Rather, I've been waiting for a long time."
Assists the leader of the Knights with her calm personality
*Katarina
*30 years old
She is the second in command of the sole group of Knights located at the eastern part of Gaien, Razril. She has a calm personality that keeps cool at all times and she is a woman who firmly support Glen, who is preparing for the invasion from another country and patrols Razril. Her magic ability is exceptionally high, and personally chooses to not neglect training. You can refer to her as one of the exceptional knights.
"In the name of our Gaien Knights' pride, let's do our best to not let these cowardly pirates onto land!!"
The leader of the Gaien Knights who possesses a strong will
*Glen Cott
*53 years old
Glen, who owns the rank as the leader who controls the Gaien Knights, has a very strict and serious personality. He is the teacher of the knights-in-training like the Hero. He has a strong sense of responsibility. Recently not only the rowdy pirates, but violent monsters continue to appear. He seems to also be responsible to escort the merchant ships from harm.
"You fool! What is the captain of the ship doing by leaving his subordinates!! A captain may never retreat until the end!!"
The one who travels around the world to chase their dream to become a big merchant
*Chiepoo
*? years old
Chiepoo, who is seen as having a cat's ears and tail, is a young man from the Nekobold tribe. He works all around the world as he travels, to dream the day he will become a big merchant person (cat?). In order to acheive his dream, he is always hard working and doesn't falter to any hardships by staying happy. It is interesting to see how he will meet the Hero!
"Oh, you don't have to say that even though I'm young I face many hardships. Because... I will become a big merchant who walks around the world. I have to work hard for my dream. Anyhow, where is this ship headed for?""
Journeying - Meet your new comrades by crossing the ocean!
The previous works mainly focused on the story developing while on land, but Suikoden IV's stage is the ocean. Since the Hero is a part of the marine knights group, the story seem to develop crossing from ocean to ocean. This causes us to be curious about the transportation process and the headquarter. Of course, even if it is a fact that one will transport on a ship, will there be various types of ships? Also, where will your headquarter be within this vast ocean. It's exciting to see if a rowdy pirate becomes your party members, and we will look forward to the monster you will meet at sea.
New tidbits
The majority of the article has stuff that is already known, so I will start listing the new info here:
-the magazine speculates that the rune of punishment's memory of the past may reveal the secrets of the Suikoden world
-they confirm the fact that Windy is "MIA"
-Eleanor Silverberg is describes as a "drunk" when you meet her
-The Hero was found at or near the ocean of Razril
-The Gaien fortress is made out of stone
-A scene with an injured person lying on shore is shown (most probably a shipwreck)
Jeane?!
150 years. No appearances from ones from the rest of the series? But, "she" makes an appearance.
Leknaat, who appears in all is a critical character plotwise, but she is not one of the 108 stars of destiny. That means, the fans will be hoping for new characters being added on, the ancestors of characters from previous games, or characters who are immortal because they possess a true rune. Please take a look at the right picture. (Picture of Jeane-like person with the big caption "How old is this person!?" and with the side caption "She definitely looks like Je___. Did this person possess a true rune? We also are eagerly anticipating the info of other characters) She is a woman who has a sexy gaze and mouth. It seems like the only person who can wear a revealing outfit rightfully like this has to "that person". Please look forward to the revealing of her identity next time!
