Meta Information

Appearances

Suikoden

Kaku (カク, Kaku) is a village which appears in Suikoden. Kaku is a small village located on the east bank of Lake Toran.

Information

Kaku is known as the town where fishermen gather and has a noted reputation for its sordid characters. The fishermen who reside here are said to be very tanned due to their outdoors work. The town also produced a lot of flour.

Toran Castle is visible from the village and before becoming the base for the Toran Liberation Army there were a host of rumors about the castle being haunted. It was possible to take boat rides out to the castle.

The small town itself bustles with several businesses, including inns and blacksmiths. Many of the town's lively fishermen, and other notable figures such as Tai Ho and Gaspar spen their time rolling dice in the basement of one of the town's bars.

The claiming of the castle by the Toran Liberation Army opened up more fishing opportunities, with the fog around the castle dispersing.
