Fredegund (フレデグンド, Furedegundo) is a major character in Suikoden Tierkreis. Fredegund is the younger sister of Chrodechild and a powerful soldier in the service of the Order of the One True Way.
History
Fredegund was the second princess of the Kingdom of Astrasia and the younger sister of Crown Princess Chrodechild. In their youth, the sisters were very close friends with Fredegund caring very deeply for her older sister. Still, she would begin to feel lost and abandoned when her parents were killed in the war between Astrasia and the Order of the One True Way.
When the Astrasia Royal Knights were defeated and Chrodechild forced into exile in Janam, Fredegund felt completely abandoned and, trapped in Order-occupied Pharamond, embraced the teachings of the Order out of despair. Assigned Beardsley as something of a handler, Fredegund would develop into one of the Order's most powerful warriors, wielding the Astrasian royal blade that made up half of Divine Edge.
During the war against the Order, Fredegund would occasionally see her sister on the battlefield, bringing her conflicted feelings to the surface. Finally dueling Chrodechild in Pharamond, she would be defeated by her older sister, beginning the path of recovery.
Freed from the Order's influence, Fredegund joined the Company, though some in Astrasia were unhappy and unwilling to forgive her former association with the Order. Still, it seems she won over most opponents over time, such as Quillard, whom she saved despite his denouncing her as a traitor.
Fredegund continued to be very attached and protective of her sister, becoming incredibly upset when Chrodechild was temporarily lost in the space between worlds. Her attitude did not change after the war, Fredegund would continue to support her sister, now Queen of Astrasia.
As for Fredegund herself, after the war, she would continue to serve without title or position, in order to make amends for her betrayal of her people.
