Esmeralda was a [[Scarlet Moon Empire]] aristocrat convinced of her own beauty<ref>"Well, I suppose that's my fate. And it's all because of my beauty, isn't it?" - Esmeralda ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref> who encountered [[Hero (Suikoden)|Master McDohl]] in [[Antei]] and convinced herself she was about to become the subject of a kidnapping<ref>"You're planning to kidnap for a ransom, aren't you? How frightening!" - Esmeralda ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref> by the [[Toran Liberation Army]]. She allowed herself to be "abducted" in exchange for a rare jewel, the [[Opal]]<ref>"Let's see... I'll do as you say if you bring me the "Opal."" - Esmeralda ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>, the delivery of such apparently showing Tir's good faith in the matter<ref>"Now I know you're acting in good faith. I'll come along." - Esmeralda ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. Her aristocratic upbringing allowed her to be one of the commanders of the Liberation Army's [[Narcissists|Narcissist regiment]], although she often complained about her surroundings<ref>"I'm sick of this run-down place." - Esmeralda ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>.
Esmeralda is a slightly ambigious and enigimatic but mostly elegant and naive woman fond of dressing fashionably and luxuirously. Like [[Vincent de Boule]], she appears to be an aristocrat of the [[Scarlet Moon Empire]]. During the [[Gate Rune War]], she was invited to join the [[Toran Liberation Army]]. Esmeralda misunderstood and believed she was being kidnapped. Believing her beauty to be a curse which drew the interests of the Liberation Army, she demanded the Opal as a token of good faith. The Liberation Army at the time was only comprised of a few and so recruited the unreasonable companion.


Following the conclusion of the [[Gate Rune War]], Esmeralda returned home, passing the time peacefully in a garden full of flowers<ref>"Lives a comfortable life with a garden full of roses." - Esmeralda's Ending Text ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>.
She had only a handful of friends such as Vincent and [[Milich Oppenheimer]] (and later [[Simone Verdricci]]) and they commonly took tea together. After the Gate Rune War, it appears Esmeralda lived an elegant life in a house with a garden full of roses. Given that she was a former Scarlet Moon Empire noble but lost her nobility following the war, she must have inherited her fortune.
