Varkas | [[File:Varkas dismisses tax clerks.png|220px|thumb|left|Hey, taxes build roads, you know!]] | ||
Varkas was the leader of the [[Mt. Seifu]] bandits, known as the "Whirlwind Axe", due to his battlefield prowess. Varkas drew the ire of [[Grady]], the military commander of [[Rockland]], who accused Varkas and the Mt. Seifu bandits of pillaging local villages and rendering Rockland unable to collect taxes. This, however, was untrue, as Varkas and the Mt. Seifu bandits only stole from [[Scarlet Moon Empire]] officials and never from common citizens. | |||
Eventually, [[Hero (Suikoden)|the son]] of [[Teo McDohl]] would be ordered to apprehend him and Varkas and his second-in-command, [[Sydonia]], were defeated and captured. Varkas and Sydonia were strung up on stakes to starve outside of Grady's mansion. One of the Mt. Seifu bandits travelled to [[Lenankamp]] on behalf of Varkas, asking for the [[Toran Liberation Army]] to rescue them. His previous captors, outraged by Grady's behaviour, would rescue the bandits. | Eventually, [[Hero (Suikoden)|the son]] of [[Teo McDohl]] would be ordered to apprehend him and Varkas and his second-in-command, [[Sydonia]], were defeated and captured.

After the Toran Liberation Army acquired [[Toran Castle]], Varkas and Sydonia travelled there in order to return the favour they owed by joining the Toran Liberation Army. Varkas served in the Toran Liberation Army throughout the [[Gate Rune War]]. During the war, Varkas also found he missed the easy-going bandit life he had enjoyed on Mt.

During the [[Dunan Unification War]], Varkas would encounter [[Sheena]] and [[Hero (Suikoden II)|the leader]] of the [[New State Army]] attempting to enter the [[Toran Republic]]. | ||
As they were representing a force traditionally hostile to the republic's predecessor, the [[Scarlet Moon Empire]], Varkas chose not to allow the group free entry but escorted the party to [[Gregminster]]. | |||
