Once there was hero named Barbarossa-"the
Golden Emperor"-hero of the Scarlet Moon
Empire. But the sun is now setting on the Empire.

The day is silently drawing near. The 108 Stars of
Destiny are gathering.

The son of distinguished soldier Teo McDohl, one
of the five Imperial Generals, lives without want
for anything, surrounded by his attendant Gremio,
his father's servants Cleo and Pahn, and his best
friend Ted.

One day, Teo makes a trip to the north to protect
his Empire. It is then that the boy realizes his place
in the Empire and sees the world with his own
eyes for the first time. A world filled with
resentment toward the Empire awaits...

Enter an ancient world of bravery,
mysticism, and romance

In this epic role-playing adventure, you will roam the land trying to build an army of rebels. On your quest for freedom from the Scarlet Moon Empire, you will meet many people who will provide you with guidance and friendship--and many who will try to crush you under their boots. Let your head and heart guild you, but a word of advice; a sharpened sword and a touch of magic will lead to a longer life!

Suikoden is a 10-30 hour RPG with magic, demons, and an evil empire. Your party of six can be made up of around 80 characters, with 108 in all to recruit. A castle serves as the HQ that builds up with evey character that joins, adding a bath a library and others. The game itself is based on an ancient Eastern lore. Also see the anime movie "Suikoden" that has almost nothing to do with the game. Instead of runes they use guns, and it takes place it Tokoyo.
