Ronettes

Ronettes (ロネッツ, Ronettsu) is a character in Genso Suikoden Short Story Collection 1. She is a Sarady innkeeper who aided Gremio during the War of Succession.

History
Ronettes was described as short and thin body with pale white skin. Beneath her frizzy red hair shone sharp blue eyes. Gremio judged her to be around 40 years old, and quite beautiful. As an innkeeper, she wore a deep red dress and an apron.

Ronettes ran a Sarady inn during the War of Succession which was requisitioned by troops loyal to Geil Rugner. Put out by their disruption, she was initially grumpy to Gremio and Eiji when they first looked for accommodation. She quickly softened and fed them supper, only to become furious once she realized they couldn't pay for the meal. She agreed to let Gremio work off the debt, however.

In her previous life, she was a bandit of Mt. Tigerwolf, feared greatly as the "Slender Dual Swords" for her skill with a sword and her ability as a raider. When fighting broke out in the Sarady inn during Gremio's attempt to rescue hero, Ronettes would return from a doctor's appointment sword in hand, saving Gremio and Eiji from the soldiers who greatly outnumbered them.

She also had arranged for the villagers to surround the inn, forcing the soldier's surrender. After the successful rescue of McDohl, Ronettes would advise and prepare some small supplies for both Gremio and Eiji before seeing them off.
