Fubar (フーバー, Fūbā) is a supporting character in Suikoden III. He is Hugo's lifelong companion.

History

Hugo's griffin comrade. Highly intelligent and even seems to understand spoken languages.

— Fubar's profile

Fubar was a particularly intelligent griffin, able to understand human speech and emotion to a great extent. Bearing the Shining Wind Rune perhaps indicated he came from a similar background as Feather. At the very least, his ability to use a rune was proof of his high intelligence.

Fubar had braclets, a favored accessory of the Karaya Clan, on his front legs. Hugo had placed them on Fubar to invoke the blessing of the spirits. Fubar has beautiful fur that is silky to the touch. His front feathers are white while his back feathers were black. Because of this, he was able to take advantage of the darkness when launching surprise attacks.

He first met Hugo when they both were four years old. Fubar had been found as a baby and brought back to Karaya Village. The two have been friends since they met but when he became a fully matured griffin, Fubar was to be imprisoned and sold off by Lucia. Hugo would release Fubar in the night and in return, Fubar rescued Hugo from a pack of wild wolves. Following this, Fubar was allowed to remain with the Karaya.

He faithfully accompanied Hugo on his travels, helping him escape from several perilous situations. In particular, Fubar was able to take advantage of the darkness to save Hugo and the others in Vinay del Zexay when they were seemingly cornered by the Zexen Knights with his signature surprise attack.

Although tame, he was a proud griffin and did not like to carry anyone other than Hugo. Sgt. Joe also seemed to understand him better than most. Fubar cared deeply about Hugo and was always willing to fight for him. He was a clean creature and loved to be brushed after taking a bath. His favorite food was meat and he once put a letter in the suggestion box at Budehuc Castle (handwritten on his behalf by Sgt. Joe) saying that he wanted to try horsemeat curry.

Following the War of the Champions, he continued to live with Hugo in the rebuilt Karaya Village.
