Agares Blight (アガレス・ブライト, Agaresu Buraito) is a supporting character from Suikoden II. Agares is introduced as the ruler of the Highland Kingdom, although he is quickly marginalised by his son Luca Blight as part of the latter's maniacal plans.
Born in 408, Agares Blight became the 22nd king of Highland at the age of 27, following the death of his father, Robert, in the middle of the Jowston-Highland War. Although not a talented ruler, he was a hopeful pacifist who disliked combat and so sued for peace, ending the war soon after his reign began. He was married to the noble Sara by the time he took the throne in 434 and his son, Luca was born the same year. Some of Agares' desire for peace may have been entrusted to him by his wife.
In 443, the Blight royal caravan was attacked by what was ostensibly a group of bandits, although the equipment and training of the brigands indicated they were trained by Muse. There, Agares abandoned his wife and son Luca and made for the capital. Although later rescued by the Highland Army, Luca would always hold his father responsible for the events and their repercussions, including the madness and eventual death of Sara.
Agares' pacifist policies led to fierce opposition from within the military and he would later reluctantly entrust the command of the military to Luca in order to reduce the dissatisfaction of the army. Older generals such as Han Cunningham would continue to support Agares, while younger generals such as Seed and Culgan supported Luca and his appointment as commander of the Highland Army. (more...)
