Winged Horde

The Winged Horde (ウイングホード, Uinguhōdo), sometimes referred to as Winghorde and, colloquially, Wingers, are a race in the Suikoden series. Several characters in the series have been members of this race.

Overview
The Winged Horde are a demi-human race, with large wings on their back. Their wings do not support sustained flight. Rather, they are used for gliding purposes. They use "Wing Water", a foul-smelling liquid to protect their wings and repel insects.

Their largest known settlement is in Two River City. They once had settlements in Tinto Principality but were expelled from the area as Tinto's strip mining began to damage the land. A displaced people, the Winged Horde were brought to Two River City by Genkaku.

The reputation of the Winged Horde in Two River suffered to a lack of cultural understanding between the races there. However, their bravery during the Dunan Unification War was noticed and following the conflict, the persecution they suffered in the past has ceased.
