Suikoden IV/Characters: Difference between revisions

Line 3:

== [[Canon Name|Lazlo]] {{spoiler|En Kuldes}} ==

⚫

* [[The Hero]]

⚫

** [[Magnetic Hero]]: By necessity, with 107 potential recruits on offer.

⚫

* [[A Taste of Power]]: Inverted: He wears the outfit of the Razril Knights at the beginning of the game, including their single-sword style. When he ditches the uniform for plot reasons and takes up his second sword, his attack power effectively doubles.

* [[Blessed with Suck]]: The Rune of Punishment. Not only does it have the normal baggage of one of the True Runes, it actively drains the life of its bearer whenever they use it. {{spoiler|Unless it successfully transitions to the Forgiveness phase.}}

* [[The Chosen One]]

Line 11:

Line 8:

* [[Dual-Wielding]]: His [[Weapon of Choice]] is a pair of swords.

* [[Earn Your Happy Ending]]: Good thing you're big on the whole 'hard work' ethic, Lazlo. {{spoiler|Your life depends on it.}}

⚫

* [[Mr. Fanservice]]: Lazlo has a lot of [[Fan Girl|Fangirls]] in-universe. Must have something to do with the short-shorts...

* [[Game Breaker]]: Pair him with Ted, spend hours at the [[Training from Hell|Training Room]], and train up to level 100, then train the other party members. With the exception of the guy running the place, EVERYONE will be level 100 by the time you're done.

** {{spoiler|And he doesn't stop there! Finish [[Suikoden IV]] with him surviving, start a game with [[Suikoden Tactics]] while loading the data from [[Suikoden IV]], recruit him and send him out to a battle field. Unlike other characters who can be [[Killed Off for Real]], he ''does not get killed off'', his [[Blessed with Suck|Rune of Punishment]] becomes so insanely powerful even without the rune, and you can pair him off with either Kika or Kyril for a [[Combination Attack]].}} How's THAT for a [[Game Breaker]]!?

* [[Hard Work Hardly Works]]: [[Averted]]; Lazlo's hard work and dedication is what caused him to catch Glen's eye and be treated as a prodigy.

⚫

* [[The Hero]]

⚫

** [[Magnetic Hero]]: By necessity, with 107 potential recruits on offer.

* [[Heroic Mime]]: Interestingly, though, the player can select one of two voice sets for him, or go completely without one.

* [[Moses in the Bulrushes]]: He was washed up on Razril's shore as an orphaned toddler. The Vingerhut family took him in as an adopted servant and playmate for their son, Snowe.

** [[Happily Adopted]]: The pair enrolled in the Gaien Marine Knights Academy together, where his dedication to hard work caught the eye of Commander Glen.

⚫

* [[Mr. Fanservice]]: Lazlo has a lot of [[Fan Girl|Fangirls]] in-universe. Must have something to do with the short-shorts...

* [[Power Strain Blackout]]: He faints after each use of the Rune of Punishment, {{spoiler|due to it draining its host's lifeforce with each use... until it finally kills them. This can be averted by successfully recruiting all 108 Stars of Destiny.}}

* [[The Scapegoat]]: Gets framed for {{spoiler|Glen's death}}.

* {{spoiler|[[Secret Legacy]]: He's actually the lost Prince of Obel, who was lost to sea at the same time the Queen of Obel sacrificed herself. Ironically, the King of Obel later considers naming Lazlo as his successor, despite not realizing his true identity.}}

* [[The Stoic]]: Not very expressive, particularly when compared to other Tenkai Stars.

⚫

* [[A Taste of Power]]: Inverted: He wears the outfit of the Razril Knights at the beginning of the game, including their single-sword style. When he ditches the uniform for plot reasons and takes up his second sword, his attack power effectively doubles.
