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

Biography

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. His eccentricities and inventions 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 those hapless residents would be the leader of the New State Army.

Adlai rudely demanded several errands from him and after one order too far, a Wind Crystal 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 North Window Castle and installed an elevator there.

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.

-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]]<ref>"Good man, Riou!!!!!! It's good to stand up for 	yourself! Well, I'll see you at North Window Castle!!!!!" - Adlai ([[Suikoden II]])</ref>.
-Adlai built an elevator in [[North Window Castle]]. He considered the elevator his greatest work<ref>"It's Adlai's greatest work!!! Use it carefully!!!" - Adlai ([[Suikoden II]])</ref> and felt people should thank him for it more often<ref>"Considering how much people use my elevator you would think I could get a 'thank you' once in a while. Don't you agree?" - Adlai ([[Suikoden II]])</ref>. Adlai also saw his inventions disappear from time to time<ref>"It's strange... Sometimes my inventions just seem to disappear. Very strange indeed..." - Adlai ([[Suikoden II]])</ref>.
-Following the end of the [[Dunan Unification War]], Adlai returned to South Window, where he continued to invent and annoy his neighbors<ref>"Returned to South window to continue inventing and making trouble for his neighbors." - Adlai's Ending Text ([[Suikoden II]])</ref>.
