Borus Redrum (ボルス・レッドラム, Borusu Reddoramu) is a supporting character in Suikoden III. Borus is one of the Six Mighty Zexen Knights.

History

A member of the six renowned Zexen Knights. He is unrivaled with his sword handling techniques and is known as the "Swordsman of Rage".

—  Borus' profile

Borus was one of the Six Mighty Knights, the most renowned of the Zexen Knights. He was raised by proud parents in a prominent Zexen family that has produced many fine Zexen Knights but seems to become angry whenever this is brought up. As such, he had apprenticed in the knights from an early age.

He was said to be the best swordsman out of the entire Zexen Knights but was also said to lack composure. He wielded a double-edged, one-handed sword that slightly longer than normal so that it could be used from horseback. His temperament and skill led to him being known as the "Swordsman of Rage." Nevertheless, he was extremely loyal, honest, and passionate person. As a knight, he held absolute confidence in his skill as a swordsman and was unintimidated by any opponent.

He was friends with Percival Fraulein. Though the two graduated at the same time, they were initially assigned to different companies and so did not have much contact. It is only after they both became two of the Six Mighty Knights that they got to know each other. They were initially rivals but eventually forged a bond as comrades.

Borus had harbored strong feelings towards Chris for quite some time, though perhaps these feelings were more of admiration than romance. This has led him to become easily flustered and enraged should he be mocked for it.

During the Zexen attack on the Karaya Village at the outset of the War of the Champions, the resulting massacre cast a dark shadow across his mind. Although the massacre itself was perpetrated by the Destroyers, Borus could not deny that he had been caught up in his anger, bringing out his brutality. Since then, he struggled to forgive himself, even for a moment. His pride as a knight also got in the way of his acceptance of what had happened.

Borus' personality clashed somewhat with the more laid-back members of Budehuc Castle. The castle staff did not like him, especially Juan. Borus however paid little attention to them and followed Chris everywhere she went. Suspicious of just about everyone, Borus immediately let Chris know that Kathy was showing an interest in her horse. In his spare time, Borus indulged in wine collection as a hobby.

As the knights made their way through the Ceremonial Site for the final battle against the Destroyers, he requested to be expelled from the Zexen Knights. He was aware that his guilt would not be removed by expulsion but was unwilling to let the incident lie. Chris Lightfellow refused and requested that they continue to fight together. Moved, Borus would swear allegiance to Chris once again. By acknowledging his own prior immaturity, Borus had finally begun to mature as a knight.

Following the war, Borus continued to serve the Zexen Knights and Lady Chris. His cavalry would act as the vanguard in many border disputes between Zexen and the Tinto Republic.

Trivia

  • Borus has a Suggestion Box letter that only occurs if Hugo is selected as Flame Champion and Chris acts in a play, talk about specific.
  • Borus first name is likely a reference to Bors (ボールス), one of the Knights of the round table. Their Japanese names only slightly differ. His last name is murder read backwards, probably referencing the Stephen King novel The Shining.
