Bolgan (ボルガン, Borugan) is a character in Suikoden II who also appears in Genso Suikogaiden Vol.2. Bolgan is a circus performer who journeys with Rina and Eilie.
History
|
Bolgan was a young man with a unique circus act as a fire-breather. He was adopted by a cirus in Zexen when the circus master awoke and found a basket outside with Bolgan, some bread, and the Fire Breath Rune, apparently to keep the child warm.
He used the rune in his act as he grew up but was treated as a servant rather than a fellow performer. Due to this constant bullying and mistreatment, Bolgan decided to run away from the circus. With the help of Eilie and Rina who were working with the circus at the time, he was able to escape and set off on a journey alongside the duo, who treated him as a brother.
Their travels led them to Ryube Village in the City-State of Jowston, where they encountered the hero. To navigate the treacherous North Sparrow Pass, Bolgan and his sisters joined forces with the hero temporarily. Afterward, they reunited with the hero in Coronet Town and chose to become members of the New State Army.
Bolgan was granted a position in the hero's Royal Guard. He also developed a keen interest in learning and spent much time studying at the castle library. He was a kind and empathetic soul, friendly to all. He also noticed Eilie's crush on the hero. Knowing they would leave their friends behind at the end of the war, Bolgan tried his hardest to come up with a solution for Eilie's worry, suggesting that the hero could join their troupe.
Following the conclusion of the Dunan Unification War, Bolgan returned to traveling with the circus troupe while continuing his studies. The troupe's journey eventually brought them to Milit Village, where Bolgan played a crucial role in helping Nash Latkje and others fend off a raid orchestrated by the fraudulent Fire Bringer.
