Kirke | [[File:Kirke is confused about his invitation.png|220px|thumb|left|We're an armed rebellion, I think we can find a role for you.]] | ||
Kirke, who served as an executioner stationed at the [[Fortress of Lorimar]], found himself facing a peculiar predicament during the [[Gate Rune War]]. [[Neclord]]'s sinister acts of reanimating the deceased in the region significantly affected his line of work, causing business to slow down considerably. | |||
The morbid nature of his duty, involving the execution of criminals through decapitation, had a profound impact on Kirke's heart, darkening it unbeknownst even to himself. However, fate would soon offer him an unexpected opportunity for redemption when he received an invitation to join the [[Toran Liberation Army]]. This invitation heralded a new chance at life, allowing Kirke to escape the confines of his disliked occupation and embrace a brighter path. | |||
Embracing his new role as a valued member of [[the Wild Geese]] unit within the Liberation Army, Kirke's once ominous scythe, which had once served as an instrument of finality for the condemned, now symbolized hope and resilience in the pursuit of a better world. With the hatchet-like blade of his scythe now drawn out to champion the cause of the Liberation Army, Kirke showcased his mettle on the battlefield. | |||
Following the triumph of the Liberation Army and the fall of the [[Scarlet Moon Empire]], Kirke made a remarkable career shift, relinquishing his scythe to the capable hands of [[Lorelai]] and embracing a new vocation as a farmer, where he would wield a plough instead, symbolizing the fertile prospects of a peaceful life. | |||

==Trivia== | |||
* Kirke's three weapon names are derived from Tarot cards. He shares this distinction with [[Suikoden II]]'s [[Rina]]. | |||
* Kirke has become somewhat of a memorable optional character because he wants to make sure you are completely okay with the fact that all he knows how to do is cut off heads. | |||
