Sheena is the sole son of Eileen and Lepant and is somewhat of an immature playboy. Under the guise of a journey of training, he plays around in various places around the land, hitting on women and generally infuriating his father.
Profile
Appearance
Taking after his mother in appearance, Sheena is a slight, handsome youth with blond hair and amber eyes and a prominent forehead.
His blond hair is light like his mother's. He wears a loose, green shirt along with black pants and brown boots with green trim.
In Suikoden II, the green shirt is a buttoned affair with beige trim, though Sheena always leaves it mostly unbuttoned and hanging from him. Under his shirt, he wears an armless maroon form-fitting body piece with a high neckline.
In Suikoden, he wears a low-hanging necklace and an earring on his left ear, while in Suikoden II he instead wears a loose choker around his neck and no earring. He also has a decorative tassel hanging from his tunic sleeve.
Personality
Play money and real fighting? But I want real money and play fighting
Immature and prone to skirt-chasing, Sheena is frequently admonished by his father for his continuous antics. However, it is said that Lepant himself acted no different during his own youth.
Lighthearted and brimming with confidence, he flits from one situation to the next with ease. Although he seems entirely without a care, it appears he has some semblance of justice in his heart as he is generally willing to fight for a cause and even clashed with his father ideologically.
Tesla noted he was talented at drawing out people's true opinions. He is said to have the sword skills of his father and the magical ability of his mother.
Despite his flirting, he has not had a girlfriend. This is almost entirely due to his inability to focus on any one woman for long.
History
Immature Playboy
There are some fine women here in the Liberation Army.
— Sheena
Gotta admit, it'd work on me.
Sheena is the son of Lepant and Eileen who has somewhat of a wandering eye. Sheena was spoiled by his mother during his youth and has grown up to be a rather immature man, by his father's standards. He had prodigious potential, combining the martial skill of his father with the magical arts of his mother but, rather than training, Sheena spent of his time idling and chasing women.
When he was a child, Sheena had fallen ill. The illness was serious enough that his father sought out the great healer Liukan to administer treatment.
During the Gate Rune War, annoyed by his son's indolence, Lepant cast Sheena out into the world on a learning excursion. The youth did not take the intended project at face value. Later, Sheena was discovered flirting in Seika, boasting about his family's wealth, when he was overheard by Lepant. Unhappy at his son's playboy attitude, Lepant forced his son to join the Toran Liberation Army with the aim of making Sheena into a mature adult.
Throughout the war, Sheena served in his father's unit, shoving off his own tactical skill. Although a reluctant fighter, his natural talents and potential were evident. He wielded a rapier, a straight and slender sword with a sharp point.
Following the fall of the Scarlet Moon Empire and the end of the Gate Rune War, Sheena served briefly as a clerk alongside Tesla and Lepant even attempted to appoint him as a military governor. However, Sheena disagreed vehemently with the retention of an old imperial system of governance and made up his mind to leave.
Sheena left his parents once more, but not before Eileen gifted him the family sword, Kirinji, at Lepant's behest. He switched to wielding Kirinji after he broke his rapier protecting a servant boy from an angry noble who had water spilled on him. After this, he began wandering around and having a good time as usual.
Toran Ambassador
Listen, the Scarlet Moon Empire is gone. We're the Toran Republic now.
He would later appear at New Alliance Army Headquarters where he offered his help broker an alliance between the New Alliance Army and the Toran Republic. Rather than pure altruism, this offer gave Sheena the opportunity to return home and relax. Unfortunately for his plans, Lepant would grab his son at Gregminster Palace and order him to join the New Alliance Army for the remainder of the war.
Gambit would be proud
Sheena would serve as a bodyguard of the New Alliance Army's leader. Following the war, he planned to resume his debauchery world tour but when he returned to Toran to obtain some more funds he was once again caught by his father and forced to endure his harsh training.
Following his training, Sheena would resume his idle journey, this time towards the Holy Kingdom of Harmonia, with Oulan hired as his bodyguard. In Marid Village, he would spend some time with Jonah. When a wild dragon attacked the village, he would team up Nash Latkje and others to fend it off, wielding impressive magic during the battle.

How to recruit
When the castle is at Level 2 or higher, talk to Sheena at the inn in Seika with Lepant in the party.
Though he uses a rapier in Suikoden, Sheena takes on his father's old sword for Suikoden II: Kirinji, Kirinji 2, Kirinji 3.
Fans speculate that Sheena may be Apple's un-named former husband that she mentions in Suikoden III.
Sheena uses a rather unusual technique with the Kirinji. Though the Kirinji is a flamberge, a type of sword normally held with two hands, Sheena attacks holding it with one hand.
