Boris Wizen (ボリス・ワイゼン, Borisu Waizen) is a character in Suikoden II. He is the son of Ridley Wizen and will join the New State Army should his father perish during the Dunan Unification War.

History

Of course! For my father's soul, and for the City-States, I stake my life on this battle!

—  Boris Wizen

Boris was the son of Ridley Wizen, Commander of Two River City's kobold armies. His dream was to one day follow in his father's footsteps and succeed him in leading the kobold forces.

While perhaps not quite as gifted as his father and lacking in practical experience, Boris had all the makings of an outstanding soldier. His looks come from his mother's side of the family though his ability to look good in a uniform was surely his father's influence.

Boris was studying in the Nameless Lands when the Dunan Unification War broke out. If the leader of the New State Army attempted to abandon the army in Tinto City, then Ridley would perish searching for his commander as the city was besieged by Neclord's zombie horde. Hearing of his father's death, Boris would travel to join the New State Army in his place in order to fulfil his father's wishes.

Following the war, regardless of his father's fate, Boris would continue to try and follow his father's path by eventually succeeding him as commander of Two River's kobold forces.

Personality and Traits

Boris was considered to be very like his father in looks as well as equal to him in ability. Should Ridley perish during the war, Boris would take his death hard, although he would make sure not to let it show.

Boris was also rather concerned about his appearance, spending over an hour each morning brushing his fur.
