Region Toran
Appears in

The Northern Checkpoint (きたのせきしょ, Kita no Sekisho) is a fortress which appears in Suikoden. It is a citadel located between the regions of Kunan and Senan.

Suikoden

The Northern Checkpoint is built over the Sadhna Stream and as such is the only way to gain entrance to the mostly desolate region of Senan.

During the Gate Rune War, the Battle at the Northern Checkpoint occurred here when what was assumed by Imperial spies to be Toran Liberation Army training exercises turned into a surprise all-out attack on the checkpoint. Griffith was in command of the Northern Checkpoint during the war.

The checkpoint quickly fell to Liberation Army in the resulting Battle at the Northern Checkpoint.

Music

Gate

The Northern Checkpoint's theme in Suikoden is the song "Gate", which is song 16 on disc 2 of the Genso Suikoden Original Game Soundtrack.

The Northern Checkpoint shares "Gate" as its theme with most "fortress"-style locations throughout the game, including the Fortress of Kwaba, Pannu Yakuta Castle, the Fortress of Garan, the Fortress of Lorimar, Moravia, and the Floating Fortress of Shasarazade.
