Ramin

Ramin (ラミン, Ramin) is a minor character in Suikoden Tierkreis. Ramin is a wandering bard whose attitude is almost as rage-inducing as his mysterious music.

Biography
Ramin was a musician who performed using a rare instrument called a plucking bow. Incredibly haughty, Ramin was extremely prideful and prone to talking down to anyone and everyone, whether they wanted to hear his music or not.

Ramin's music had the unusual characteristic of bringing out the anger inside his audience, and he often enjoyed watching onlookers break into violence against each other. These performances were brought Ramin to the attention of the Company, and after barely managing to avoid giving into their own anger, Ramin would be detained.

He would be pressed into service when it was discovered that his music could also boost the Company's attributes during battle though this newfound outlet did little to curb Ramin's attitude or desire to instigate violence. His music was surprisingly ineffective on monsters as well as the Porpos-kin.

At some point during the war, a version of Ramin from elsewhere in the Infinity arrived to similarly cause havoc. The two did not get along due to their similarly haughty attitudes and their individual music cancelled out the other, allowing the non-native Ramin to be quickly dispatched back to his home world.

After the war, Ramin would travel to Lugenik where an impromptu performance almost saw him crushed to death by the Auster Folk there.

Music
Ramin has two musical tracks associated with him. The first is his character theme "The Wandering "Plucking Bow" Player". This theme plays during Ramin's recruitment scenes and during his confrontation with Ramin?, a version from another world of the Infinity.

Placing Ramin in the active battle party changes the battle music to a remix, named "The Power of Pent-Up Anger" and is generally considered Ramin's secondary theme. These two songs are listed as songs 19 and 20 on disc 3 of the Genso Suikoden Tierkreis Original Soundtrack.
