{{quote| Adventure calls! | Meg}}


Meg was a young woman from [[Lenankamp]] who ran away from home, shouting her maxim "Adventure calls!", much to the frustration of her parents<ref>"We have a daughter called Meg. If you ever run into her, please tell her to come home once in a while." - Meg's mother ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref><ref>"Darn that tomboy Meg. "Adventure calls" indeed. Making her folks worry like this." - Meg's father ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. She would eventually end up in [[Kaku]], looking for her uncle [[Juppo]]<ref>"I'm looking for someone. Maybe you know him. His name is Juppo, he's my uncle and he's a trickster." - Meg ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. She eventually encountered him and joined the [[Toran Liberation Army]] against his wishes<ref>"No, you musn't!" - Juppo ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref> in order to learn the [[trickster]] trade from him<ref>"Hee hee. I was hoping to learn some tricks from you." - Meg ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. Juppo refused to teach her during this time<ref>"Who says I'll teach you?" - Juppo ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>, which frustrated Meg to a large extent<ref>"Old Juppo's so stingy. He won't teach me a thing." - Meg ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>.
Meg was a young woman from [[Lenankamp]], who, while pure and positive, was also reckless and did not think about the consequences of her actions. She ran away from home, shouting her maxim "Adventure calls!", much to the frustration of her parents, in the hopes of becoming a [[trickster]]. That said, her parents did encourage her thirst for knowledge.
 
[[File:Meg loves to learn.png|thumb|left|220px|Just don't learn his fashion sense, Meg.]]
She would eventually end up in [[Kaku]], looking for her uncle [[Juppo]], regarded as one of the world's finest tricksters. It was said her costuming was a deliberate attempt to mimic her uncle. She eventually encountered him and joined the [[Toran Liberation Army]] against his wishes in order to learn the trickster trade from him. Juppo refused to teach her during this time, which frustrated Meg to a large extent.
 
Following the end of the [[Gate Rune War]], Meg apparently returned home for a short time before leaving again, once more stating "Adventure calls!" Meg would eventually catch up with [[Juppo]], spending the next two years at his [[Rikon]] [[Juppo's Workshop|workshop]] and generally disrupting his actual work rather than tinkering with the box of spare and broken parts he would frequently try and direct her to. Her bad habit of ignoring blueprints and hastily disassembling and reassembling creations in different (usually non-working, smoke spewing, exploding) configurations, often frustrated her uncle.

[[File:Juppo presents Gadget.png|220px|thumb|left|He's a barrel of fun! Get it? Because he's... Ah, forget it.]]
He would build her [[Gadget]]. After that, he would leave, feeling both that Meg needed to see more of the world to become a true trickster and that she needed to return to [[Lenankamp]] under Gadget's escort. Meg attempted to follow him, reasoning he would go to the [[City-States of Jowston]], before losing track of him.


Meg would eventually catch up with [[Juppo]] and he would build her [[Gadget]]<ref>"Uncle Juppo promised to teach me, but... He said, 'You need to see more of the world to be a true trickster.' He gave me Gadget, at least, and now I'm on an adventure." - Meg ([[Suikoden II]])</ref>. After that, he would leave, claiming that Meg needed to see more of the world to become a true trickster. Meg attempted to follow him before losing track of him. She was noted for not really thinking ahead, even her pursuit of Juppo had no real reasoning behind it<ref>"This girl doesn't think before she does something.  There's no good reason for her setting off after Juppo either it seems." - Richmond ([[Suikoden II]])</ref>.
She was noted for not really thinking ahead, even her pursuit of Juppo had no real reasoning behind it, save for her craving of adventure. It was noted that her fearlessness made her a fine candidate as a trickster, but her lack of finesse when working with small parts practically cancelled that out, often frustrating her.


After the fall of [[Muse Principality|Muse]], Meg would try to cross the [[Muse-Greenhill Border]] but was refused admittance by the [[Highland Army]] after Gadget refused to fight them, much to her frustration. She then noticed [[Hero (Suikoden II)]], who had witnessed the incident and after realising who he was, and reckoning he resembled Juppo, she decided to join the [[New State Army]].

==Game Info==
During the trip, she would undergo a magical adventure alongside [[Nash Latkje|Nash]] and [[Millie]], thanks to [[Viki]]'s teleport magic. She greatly enjoyed the adventure and even ended up meeting her own matured future self, who was hired by [[Tony]] to repair a well pump on his farm.
 
Sometime after these adventures, Meg would have a daughter named [[Belle]] who would continue in her footsteps as a trickster. Meg would upgrade Gadget into the new [[Gadget Z]] for her daughter before wandering off on her own continued adventures.

History

Adventure calls!

—  Meg

Meg was a young woman from Lenankamp, who, while pure and positive, was also reckless and did not think about the consequences of her actions. She ran away from home, shouting her maxim "Adventure calls!", much to the frustration of her parents, in the hopes of becoming a trickster. That said, her parents did encourage her thirst for knowledge.

Just don't learn his fashion sense, Meg.

She would eventually end up in Kaku, looking for her uncle Juppo, regarded as one of the world's finest tricksters. It was said her costuming was a deliberate attempt to mimic her uncle. She eventually encountered him and joined the Toran Liberation Army against his wishes in order to learn the trickster trade from him. Juppo refused to teach her during this time, which frustrated Meg to a large extent.

Following the end of the Gate Rune War, Meg apparently returned home for a short time before leaving again, once more stating "Adventure calls!" Meg would eventually catch up with Juppo, spending the next two years at his Rikon workshop and generally disrupting his actual work rather than tinkering with the box of spare and broken parts he would frequently try and direct her to. Her bad habit of ignoring blueprints and hastily disassembling and reassembling creations in different (usually non-working, smoke spewing, exploding) configurations, often frustrated her uncle.

He's a barrel of fun! Get it? Because he's... Ah, forget it.

He would build her Gadget. After that, he would leave, feeling both that Meg needed to see more of the world to become a true trickster and that she needed to return to Lenankamp under Gadget's escort. Meg attempted to follow him, reasoning he would go to the City-States of Jowston, before losing track of him.

She was noted for not really thinking ahead, even her pursuit of Juppo had no real reasoning behind it, save for her craving of adventure. It was noted that her fearlessness made her a fine candidate as a trickster, but her lack of finesse when working with small parts practically cancelled that out, often frustrating her.

After the fall of Muse, Meg would try to cross the Muse-Greenhill Checkpoint but was refused admittance by the Highland Army after Gadget refused to fight them, much to her frustration. She then noticed the hero, who had witnessed the incident and after realizing who he was, and reckoning he resembled Juppo, she decided to join the New Alliance Army.

Meg would often experiment on Gadget, taking him apart and putting him back together again, usually with a few extra screws left over. Although her talents as a trickster had advanced significantly, her tinkering was far from perfect, and Gadget would often try to hide from the impetuous young inventor.

Sometime after these adventures, Meg would have a daughter named Belle who would continue in her footsteps as a trickster. Meg would upgrade Gadget into the new Gadget Z for her daughter before wandering off on her own continued adventures.
