Biography
Suikoden
|
During the War of Succession, Gremio was a soldier in Teo McDohl's unit. Teo McDohl earned Gremio's eternal loyalty after Teo saved his life in the midst of a battle. Following the Succession War, Gremio became a member of the McDohl household, helping to raise Teo's son, since he was a baby[1]. A good cook, Gremio also often made the meals in the McDohl household.
When Teo's son was a child, he was kidnapped by bandits hired by Geil Rugner in order to delay and stop Teo McDohl. Gremio rescued the young child, slaying the bandit kidnappers with his axe. After the rescue, Gremio engraved the words, "I will always protect young master," onto his axe, giving it the name "Axe of the Oath[2]."
As Teo's son grew, Gremio continued to serve as his protector, accompanying him on his missions with the Imperial Guard. After becoming branded as a fugitive, Gremio was forced to leave Gregminster along with with as well.
Although he wished to return to the Scarlet Moon Empire[3], he agreed to join the Toran Liberation Army, following his charge as his loyalty to his orders outweighed his loyalty to the Scarlet Moon Empire. During a Toran Liberation Army attempt to free Liukan from Soniere Prison, Milich Oppenheimer smashed a vial of the man-eating Spores of Agony in order to stop them. Gremio quickly pushed the other Toran Liberation Army members out of the room and shut himself in the room, sacrificing his life. In his last words, Gremio told Teo's son how proud he was of him for growing into such a responsible, mature young leader[4].
Prior to the end of the Gate Rune War, Gremio was miraculously restored to life by Leknaat using the power of the 108 Stars and the back half of the Gate Rune[5]. Reborn, Gremio resumed his place in the Toran Liberation Army. Following the fall of the Scarlet Moon Empire and the end of the Toran Liberation War, Gremio, ever loyal, continued to follow Teo's son after he left the Scarlet Moon Empire[6].
