Kanaan (カナン, Kanan) is a minor antagonist in Suikoden. He is the Assistant Commander of the Imperial Guard and something of a negative symbol for the bloated Scarlet Moon Empire of the time.
Biography
Suikoden
|
Kanaan was Assistant Commander of the Imperial Guard under Kraze Miles[1][2] during the early stages of the Gate Rune War. A man of many traits, few of them positive[3][4][5], Kanaan was considered a sign of the problems infesting the late Scarlet Moon Empire.
Kanaan was the leader of the mission to investigate the failure of Rockland to pay its taxes[6]. It was Kanaan who noted that it seemed Grady was doing well, despite the protestations of the military commander[7] although that did not stop him from ignoring this and agreeing to eradicate the Mt. Seifu Bandits[8].
It was Kanaan who first figured that Ted had the Rune of Life and Death, having witnessed its power on Mt. Seifu[9], which led to Tir McDohl and his servants becoming fugitives. Near the end of the Liberation War, Kanaan was actually promoted to the the position of assistant to Yuber[10], who led the final Imperial defence at Gregminster.
After the last battle, Kanaan quickly fled the scene. With the collapse of the Imperial government, he turned to a life of petty crime and was eventually arrested and imprisoned by the Dunan Unification War.
