'''Sid''' (シド, ''Shido'') is a character in [[Suikoden II]]. Sid is a [[Winged Horde]] who enjoys teasing children, particularly [[Chaco]].


==Biography==
==Profile==
Sid is a [[Winged Horde]] who hung around with [[Chaco]] as a child<ref>”I heard that he hung around with Chaco a lot when they were both little kids.” - Richmond ([[Suikoden II]])</ref>. Eventually, Sid claimed he was going to move away from [[Two River City]], but in actuality moved into the sewers beneath the city.  
Sid exhibited a range of peculiar and eccentric traits throughout his life in [[Two River City]]. He was known for routinely harassing fellow [[Winged Horde]] [[Chaco]], treating him as a plaything since their childhood. Sid's behavior often included telling terrifying stories to children, causing some to empty themselves with fear.


When [[Hero (Suikoden II)]] and [[Chaco]] went into the sewers, they encountered Sid. Sid, after finding out that Chaco had become a member of the [[New State Army]], decided he, too, would join, much to the dismay of Chaco<ref>”Noooo!!!!! No!!!!!!!!! Please don't come!!!!!” - Chaco ([[Suikoden II]])</ref>.
His idiosyncrasies extended to engaging in bizarre activities, such as walking around on his hands upside-down and burying fish skeletons, creating over 100 makeshift graves.


Sid continued to taunt Chaco at the [[New State Army Headquarters]], telling him scary stories in order to give him nightmares<ref>”Please do something. Every night before I go to sleep, Sid tells me these scary stories so I can't sleep...” - Chaco ([[Suikoden II]])</ref>. At the same time, Sid also attempted to scare others, telling terrifying stories to a group of children<ref>”I saw him surrounded by a bunch of kids the other day.  I thought he was playing with them, but it turns out he was telling them a super scary story.” - Richmond ([[Suikoden II]])</ref> and sending cursed chain letters via the suggestion box<ref>”This is a cursed letter. If you don't pass it on to 5 more people, you'll be cursed. Have a nice day.” - Sid ([[Suikoden II]])</ref>.  
Despite his penchant for solitude and secrecy, Sid maintained a certain fondness for the Winged Horde community. A few individuals, such as a winghorde child and [[Taki]], saw a different side of Sid and considered him to be somewhat shy.


Following the [[Dunan Unification War]], Sid returned to Two River and continued to do his best to frighten the townfolk<ref>”Living some where in Two River where he does his best to frighten the townfolks.” - Sid's Ending Text ([[Suikoden II]])</ref>.
==History==
Sid, a member of the [[Winged Horde]] from [[Two River City]]'s Winged Horde district, grew up with peculiar tendencies that both intrigued and disturbed the townspeople. When he was a child, he would listen to the strange and eerie stories shared by his grandfather of his wanderings.


==Personality and Traits==
His routine harassment of [[Chaco]], a fellow Winged Horde, persisted from childhood into adulthood. Sid had a reputation for sharing scary stories with children, leading to unsettling reactions.
Sid was frequently said to behave bizarrely. Sid was spotted walking around on his hands upside-down<ref>”What's with this guy?  When I peeked in on him, he was walking around on his hands upside-down.  Is that some kinda training or what!?” - Richmond ([[Suikoden II]])</ref> and burying the skeletons of fish that he had eaten, amassing over 100 graves<ref>”What a weirdo. He makes graves for fish after he eats them.  He's already got over 100 here.” - Richmond ([[Suikoden II]])</ref>.


Sid also loved to scare others, telling children such scary stories that some emptied their bowels<ref>”One of the kids even pooped in his pants.” - Richmond ([[Suikoden II]])</ref>. Sid had a special fondness for teasing and scaring [[Chaco]], frequently giving him nightmares<ref>”No, I'll have nightmares....” - Chaco ([[Suikoden II]])</ref>. Sid claimed he was like a big brother to Chaco<ref>”I'm Chaco's.....well, I'm sorta like Chaco's big brother.” - Sid ([[Suikoden II]])</ref>, but Chaco claimed Sid used him as a toy for his amusement<ref>”You treat people like me like I'm your personal toy!” - Chaco ([[Suikoden II]])</ref>.  
That said, many saw Sid's actions as his way of befriending and toughing up children. He had looked after Chaco when he was a baby and had even made a ball for the young boy.


Sid enjoyed solitariness, and claimed to have moved into the sewers after telling everyone he was leaving town because he did not want others to find him<ref>”Left town? That was a lie. I just didn't want anyone to find me. I like it down here.” - Sid ([[Suikoden II]])</ref>. Despite this, his presence was known to a few people, including a winger child<ref>”Apparently that jerk Sid is actually living in the sewers below the city. What a liar!” - Winger Girl ([[Suikoden II]])</ref> and [[Taki]], who considered Sid a bit shy<ref>”It's about that boy, Sid, eh? He's just a little bit shy. He's still in the tunnels underneath Two River, isn't he?” - Taki ([[Suikoden II]])</ref>.
He had agreed to participate as the masked men for the community's [[Spirit Festival]] but quickly grew bored of giving the same scares he did in his day-to-day life. Before he continued his scares, he was confronted by the spirit of his deceased grandfather admonishing him. This silenced Sid for a time but he soon perked up with ideas for new scary stories.


==References==
At some point, Sid claimed he would leave Two River City but instead moved into the city's [[Two River Sewers|sewers]], seeking solitude. Few people knew his whereabouts in the sewers, considering him elusive and secretive.

When the hero and Chaco ventured into the sewers, they encountered Sid, and upon learning of Chaco's involvement in the [[New Alliance Army]], Sid decided to join as well. He continued his habit of teasing and scaring Chaco within the army, even extending his eerie tactics to others, such as sharing spine-chilling tales with children and sending cursed chain letters.
 
Despite his eccentricities, Sid proved to be a formidable fighter, wielding his spear with surprising strength and skill during the [[Dunan Unification War]]. After the war's conclusion, he returned to Two River City, where he continued to exhibit his enigmatic and eerie presence, often frightening the townsfolk and Chaco.
