The Sindar (シンダル, Shindaru) are a race of people mentioned in the Suikoden series. They vanished from the world many years before the events of any game but reminders of their presence and influence remain.
Overview
The Sindar are a wandering group of legend, with their ruins spread throughout the world. It is said that due to the curse of the Rune of Change, the Sindar could not settle in any one land and were doomed to wander forever. The legend ends with the Sindar arriving at the Eternal City although no-one living today remembers the full details.
Although the Sindar are known to have had advanced construction techniques, as seen by their ruins and the traps that still function today to prevent their penetration, much is still unknown about their culture and history.
