Vincent de Boule (ヴァンサン・ド・ブール, Vansan do Būru) is a character in Suikoden and Suikoden II who also makes a cameo in Genso Suikogaiden Volume 2. Vincent is an aristocrat prone to fanciful claims although his noble standing is called into question by some.

Vincent always carried himself with poise and was rarely seen without a rose in his hand. His eccentric tone gave him a generally elusive air. Some of his actions during the Gate Rune War, such as his running out on bills and imprisonment led some to believe he was a fraudulent or self-proclaimed noble.

In truth, Vincent de Boule was a member of the Scarlet Moon Empire aristocracy. He was very much a natural noble, enjoying poetic conversations, hosting elegant tea parties and always making sure to be at the cutting edge of aristocratic fashion. During the Gate Rune War, he first encountered the Toran Liberation Army in Antei, where he skipped out on a meal due to a claimed lack of money. He would encounter the group again at the entrance to the Dragon's Den, where he showed them a secret entrance to the guarded cave. (more...)

-Most non-[[rune]] based chemical and mechanical developments in the world of Suikoden are considered alchemical to some degree, save for medicine and, apparently, the works of the [[Dwarf|dwarves]]. Alchemy, like much knowledge in the Suikoden world, can be traced back to the [[Sindar]].

-Alchemy, as a method of engineering, is said to have originated with the [[Sindar]] engineer [[Borah Atkins]]. Modern alchemy derives mainly from [[Dennis Toller]] and his work, [[Dialogues of Wind and Earth]]. Alchemical innovations and offshoots of Dennis Toller's work have been used by [[blacksmith]]s, for both weapon and armour creation, [[trickster]]s, for engineering purposes, as well as the [[Howling Voice Guild]], in the maintaining of their weapons.
