==Biography==
{{quote| Then let's go!! We will show them the might of the Kobolds! | Gengen}}

Gengen is a soldier from [[Kobold Village (Suikoden II)|Kobold Village]] who joined [[Viktor]]'s mercenaries. Although he still had quite a ways to go as a warrior, his inherient brightness was found to be calming and he became something of a familiar mascot for the [[Mercenary Fortress]].

Following the defeat of Viktor's mercenaries, Gengen, along with other survivors of the attack, became a member of the [[New State Army]], where he served as an Infantry Captain during the [[Dunan Unification War]]. Following the war, Gengen remained a soldier, becoming a captain of the [[Dunan Republican Army]], coming closer to his goal of being a truly great warrior.
