'''Nash Latkje''' (ナッシュ・ラトキエ, ''Nasshu Ratokie''), also known by the alias '''Nash Clovis''' (ナッシュ・クロービス, ''Nasshu Kurōbisu''), is the main character of [[Genso Suikogaiden Vol.1]] and [[Genso Suikogaiden Vol.2]] who also appears in [[Suikoden III]]. | |||
A [[Holy Kingdom of Harmonia|Harmonian]] noble fallen from grace, Nash is a member of the [[Holy Kingdom of Harmonia|Harmonian]] [[Southern Frontier Defense Force]]. | |||
==Profile== | |||
===Appearance=== | |||
Nash, as a first class Harmonian citizen, had the blond hair and blue eyes that were the defining traits of the caste. He was considered to be a handsome man. | |||
He wore loose, dark green clothing as well as a striped scarf. He worn brown gloves and boots. His loose clothes are worn in order to conceal the equipment he frequently carries. He wields the [[Twin Snake Sword Großer Fluss]]. By [[Suikoden III]] he wore a less concealing outfit. | |||
===Personality=== | |||
Nash was said to have an unsoldierly personality and strived to avoid fights. However, when pushed he showed his true power and strength. Many of skills were learned from the [[Howling Voice Guild]] and Nash's talents were well regarded even there. Quick-witted and able to adapt quickly, Nash was a master of survival against improbable odds, a key trait for a spy. | |||
He often showed a contrast of thoughtfulness and carelessness. It was said his carelessness was carefully curated to aid in his work as a [[Holy Kingdom of Harmonia|Harmonian]] agent. He was also extremely unlucky and fell into all sorts of situations regardless of his intentions, which he tended to react to by blurting out whatever came to mind. | |||
When he was older, Nash was described as garrulous, elusive, and was something of an idle flirt. Chris regarded him as skilled in wordplay but also cavalier and untrustworthy due to his allegiance and role as a spy. He would also make several cryptic references to a "missus". | |||
The animals of [[Budehuc Castle]] had a peculiar relationship with Nash. Both [[Koroku]] and [[Connie]] tried to urinate on him and [[Rubi]] once swooped him up and deposited him in her nest. | |||
== | |||
Nash was born the eldest son of the Latkje household, which held considerable influence in the [[People's Faction]] in [[Holy Kingdom of Harmonia|Harmonia]]. In his youth, he spent two years in the [[Howling Voice Guild]] as part of his education, learning knowledge of explosives, but not receiving formal training as a [[gunner]]. There, he developed something of a rivalry with [[Elza]], despite their differing roles and background. It was said Nash was never able to defeat Elza, although she was still impressed with his abilities. | ==History== | ||

There, he developed something of a rivalry with [[Elza]], despite their differing roles and background. It was said Nash was never able to defeat Elza, although she was still impressed with his abilities. | |||
Nash's life changed when [[Zaj Quiroz]], a tutor to Nash's sister, [[Julie Latkje|Julie]], poisoned their father to take over the family estate on the eve of his wedding to Julie. In retaliation, Nash attacked Zaj with the [[Twin Snake Sword Großer Fluss]], severely wounding him. Thinking Zaj dead, Nash fled the household, unwilling to reveal the truth for fearing of hurting Julie further. | Nash's life changed when [[Zaj Quiroz]], a tutor to Nash's sister, [[Julie Latkje|Julie]], poisoned their father to take over the family estate on the eve of his wedding to Julie.

Thinking Zaj dead, Nash fled the household, unwilling to reveal the truth for fearing of hurting Julie further. | ||
Nash joined the [[Holy Kingdom of Harmonia|Harmonian]] [[Southern Frontier Defense Force]] and was stationed at [[Caleria]], near the [[Grassland]]. On a covert mission to find information regarding the [[27 True Runes]], he sneaked into the [[City-State of Jowston]] during the [[Dunan Unification War]]. Entering from [[Highland Kingdom|Highland]], he ended up travelling with [[Sierra Mikain]] on his journey to [[Muse City]]. The two continued their respective journeys individually after the defeat of the [[vampire]] [[Rein Penenberg]]. When Nash arrived in Muse City, he shared a room in the local inn with [[Templeton]]. During his stay, he not only met [[Clive]], an old | [[File:Nash freezes at Sierra's touch.png|thumb|right|220px|Ew, cooties]]Nash joined the [[Holy Kingdom of Harmonia|Harmonian]] [[Southern Frontier Defense Force]] and was stationed at [[Caleria]], near the [[Grassland]].

Entering from [[Highland Kingdom|Highland]], he ended up travelling with [[Sierra Mikain]] on his journey to [[Muse City]]. The two continued their respective journeys individually after the defeat of the [[vampire]] [[Rein Penenberg]]. | ||
When Nash arrived in Muse City, he shared a room in the local inn with [[Templeton]]. During his stay, he not only met [[Clive]], an old acquaintance from his Howling Voice Guild training, but also several other people who would later form the [[New State Army]]. He overheard how [[Jowy Atreides]] and [[Hero (Suikoden II)|his friend]] were trying to infiltrate a Highland camp near the border and decided to follow them. He stole the uniform of a Highland soldier and investigated the camp. He also met [[Jillia Blight]] and her brother, [[Luca Blight]], as they had an argument. Eventually, he freed the captured Jowy and left the camp. | |||
[[File:Nash and Zaj encounter each other again.png|thumb|left|220px|Turn around! He's right behind you! Either of you!]]He then journeyed to [[Greenhill City]] where he encountered Zaj. He also played a crucial role in the defense of the city against the Highland forces under the command of [[Rowd]], his military training being of great use. Hoping to gain revenge with his own hands on Zaj, he then abandoned his mission and returned to [[Crystal Valley]]. | |||
Realizing that Zaj was trying to regain power in Harmonia, Nash began his journey back home only to be attacked by agents of Zaj and the techniques of the Howling Voice Guild. He was captured in [[Caleria]] and imprisoned by [[Barge]] but was rescued by his aunt, [[Lena Suphina]]. He eventually made it back to [[Crystal Valley]] and confronted Zaj. The two fought atop [[Klotzeo Church]] in the Harmonian capital, putting an end to the feud. Nash then left once again, despite Lena's attempts to reunite the fractured family, journeying towards the Grassland. | |||
Nash would eventually end up in the employ of [[Sasarai]] and was assigned to infiltrate the [[Grassland]] just prior to the outbreak of the [[War of the Champions]]. Although he still | [[File:Nash stabs Zaj clean through.png|thumb|right|220px|Do you know how much that suit COST!?]]At some point Nash apparently returned to his family but at some point the Latkje family name would be dissolved and would eventually end up in the employ of [[Sasarai]] and was assigned to infiltrate the [[Grassland]] just prior to the outbreak of the [[War of the Champions]]. Although he still maintained his light air, his past with the [[Holy Kingdom of Harmonia|Harmonian]] [[Southern Frontier Defense Force]] and the [[Howling Voice Guild]] made him a very talented shadow operative. | ||
Investigating the conflict between the Grassland clans and the [[Zexen Federation]], he would eventually meet up with [[Chris Lightfellow]], following the trail of [[Wyatt Lightfellow|Jimba]] and the [[True Water Rune]]. He used the last name "Clovis" around Chris, but it was an alias in use for this particular mission only. | Investigating the conflict between the Grassland clans and the [[Zexen Federation]], he would eventually meet up with [[Chris Lightfellow]], following the trail of [[Wyatt Lightfellow|Jimba]] and the [[True Water Rune]]. He used the last name "Clovis" around Chris, but it was an alias in use for this particular mission only, taken from a no-longer existent Harmonian family. He was ordered to assist and motivate Chris' investigation in part to diminish the threat of the [[Zexen Knights]]. | ||
Following the attack on [[Iksay Village]], Nash entered into secret correspondence with [[Salome Harras]]. The two determined a hidden party was fueling the growing [[War of the Champions]] and agreed to work together to try and discover the identity of this group. As such, his main motivation in accompanying Chris was to investigate this and also to track the [[Flame Champion]]. | |||
When [[Luc]] revealed his plans to Sasarai at the [[Circle Palace]], Nash would try and defend the bishop only to be defeated handidly. Once he had recovered, he, along with Sasarai and his contingent, would align himself with the [[Fire Bringer]] in order to halt Luc's plans. | |||
Nash | |||
As soon as the war ended, he had disappeared, leaving no trail behind. Some say he stopped by Chris' room to say farewell before leaving. | |||
