==Biography==
==Biography==
He was discovered as a baby and brought up by [[Vincent Vingerhut]] as a caretaker and companion for his son, [[Snowe Vingerhut|Snowe]]. He would grow to be a quiet, but brave young man whose gentle heart would allow him to sacrifice his own well-being for the benefit of others.
He was discovered as a baby and brought up by [[Vincent Vingerhut]] as a caretaker and companion for his son, [[Snowe Vingerhut|Snowe]]. He would grow to be a quiet, but brave young man whose gentle heart would allow him to sacrifice his own well-being for the benefit of others.


As an adolescent, he would join the [[Knights of Gaien]] alongside Snowe. There he excelled under the guidance of Commander [[Glen Cott]] and graduated along with his friends but tragedy would strike when his first post-graduation mission would lead to an attack by the pirate [[Brandeau]]. This would lead to him inheriting the [[Rune of Punishment]] after Glen died using the rune to repel a pirate attack on Razril.

Present at Glen's death, he was accused of the murder of his commander by Snowe and exiled from the island. He would eventually be picked up by a patrol ship from the [[Kingdom of Obel]] and he would learn more about the Rune of Punishment from [[Lino En Kuldes]]. Soon after, the [[Island Liberation War]] would break out, with the [[Kooluk Empire]] seizing Obel. Escaping the island with Lino and a few others, together they would begin to organise a force to retake the occupied [[Island Nations]].

Recruiting the famed pirate [[Kika]] and the genius tactician [[Elenor Silverberg]], the young knight would become the leader of the [[Headquarters Ship]], defeating Lino En Kuldes in a duel so as to establish his authority. Combining the power of the Rune of Punishment with the stratagems of Elenor, the force was able to swiftly liberate both Obel and Razril, giving the allied force enough momentum for a surprise, fast strike at the Kooluk stronghold of [[El-Eal Fortress]].

==Name==
==Name==
The hero of [[Suikoden IV]] has no in-game name, but is occasionally referred to by different names in other publications and releases. In [[Gensosuikoden IV (book)|the 2004 novelisation]], he is called '''Razlo''' (ラズロ, ''Razuro''). More commonly rendered by fans as '''Lazlo''', this is the most popular name used for him in fandom. In that publication, his name stems from his adopted home, [[Razril]], the katakana for both names being similar. The 2011 pachislot game [[Pachislot Gensosuikoden]] uses '''Razro''' as the romanization of the name.
