'''Adlai''' (アダリー, ''Adarī'') is a character in [[Suikoden II]] who also appears in [[Genso Suikogaiden Vol.1]]. Adlai is an eccentric inventor who came up with a form of [[elevator]].


==Biography==
==History==
===Suikoden II===
Adlai is a self-proclaimed genius inventor, although there is little evidence that any more than a handful of his designs that have been completed and worked. Where he gets his research funds from is a mystery although many rumors abound that he creates them himself.
Adlai is an eccentric inventor from [[South Window]] whose experiments severely annoyed his neighbours. Adlai also travelled to [[Tinto]] where he installed an early elevator, though it was rarely used due to it being perceived as being dangerous.


Adlai met [[Riou]] while the young leader was in South Window. Adlai demanded Riou fetch him a [[Sacrificial Jizo]], a [[Wooden Shield]] and a [[Wind Crystal]]. After fetching all three things, Riou threw the Wind Crystal in Adlai's face. He approved of Riou's standing up for himself and decided to join the [[New State Army]].
His eccentricities and almost entirely useless inventions (such as his rabbit noise shoes) have caused a lot of damage, making him something of a nuisance to those who live near his home in [[South Window City]], which doubles as his laboratory. The salvation of the hapless residents of South Window City would be [[Hero (Suikoden II)|the leader]] of the [[New State Army]].


Adlai built an elevator in [[North Window Castle]]. He considered the elevator his greatest work and felt people should thank him for it more often. Adlai also saw his inventions disappear from time to time.
Adlai rudely demanded several errands from him and after one order too far, a [[Wind Rune|Wind Orb]] soared towards his head by some unexpected coincidence. The shock apparently inspired Adlai to continue his work on the [[elevator]] mechanism. Joining the New State Army, he immediately headed for the [[New State Army Headquarters]] and installed an elevator there without permission. The speed in which he installed it may indicate another talent of his.


Following the end of the [[Dunan Unification War]], Adlai returned to South Window, where he continued to invent and annoy his neighbours.
It is later shown that Adlai's elevator was in fact powered by humans, called "[[Elevator barbarians]]", located in a hidden room above the elevator. They would operate the elevator using a system of pulleys and could sometimes be heard complaining about the heat. On his journey through [[Greenhill Forest]], [[Nash Latkje]] came across Adlai training his elevator barbarians.


==Trivia==
Returning to South Window following the war, the possibility that the elevator is Adlai's first (and last) successful invention is undeniable, but with his elevator running and its merits plain to see, it appears his talent as an engineer is, in fact, genuine.
* According to [[Richmond]], the elevator is Adlai's only useful invention so far.

Adlai (アダリー, Adarī) is a character in Suikoden II who also appears in Genso Suikogaiden Vol.1. Adlai is an eccentric inventor who came up with a form of elevator.

History

Adlai is a self-proclaimed genius inventor, although there is little evidence that any more than a handful of his designs that have been completed and worked. Where he gets his research funds from is a mystery although many rumors abound that he creates them himself.

His eccentricities and almost entirely useless inventions (such as his rabbit noise shoes) have caused a lot of damage, making him something of a nuisance to those who live near his home in South Window City, which doubles as his laboratory. The salvation of the hapless residents of South Window City would be the leader of the New State Army.

Adlai rudely demanded several errands from him and after one order too far, a Wind Orb soared towards his head by some unexpected coincidence. The shock apparently inspired Adlai to continue his work on the elevator mechanism. Joining the New State Army, he immediately headed for the New State Army Headquarters and installed an elevator there without permission. The speed in which he installed it may indicate another talent of his.

It is later shown that Adlai's elevator was in fact powered by humans, called "Elevator barbarians", located in a hidden room above the elevator. They would operate the elevator using a system of pulleys and could sometimes be heard complaining about the heat. On his journey through Greenhill Forest, Nash Latkje came across Adlai training his elevator barbarians.

Returning to South Window following the war, the possibility that the elevator is Adlai's first (and last) successful invention is undeniable, but with his elevator running and its merits plain to see, it appears his talent as an engineer is, in fact, genuine.
