After the fall of the [[Highland Kingdom]], Pesmerga disappeared, pursuing Yuber, who had abandoned the Highland Army during [[The Last Battle (Suikoden II)|the final battle]]. Pesmerga hasn't been seen since his involvement in the New State Army, not even fifteen years later when Yuber joined the [[Destroyers]] during the [[War of the Champions]]. | After the fall of the [[Highland Kingdom]], Pesmerga disappeared, pursuing Yuber, who had abandoned the Highland Army during [[The Last Battle (Suikoden II)|the final battle]].

== | ==Name and Weapon== | ||
Pesmerga's name is of Kurdish origin, ''Peshmerga'' (Kurdish پێشمەرگە) literally meaning "one who confronts death". It is also the name of the military forces of Kurdistan. | |||
In battle, he wields a two-handed sword. It upgrades as ''Crimson'' (クリムゾン, Kurimuzon ), ''Death Crimson'' (デスクリムゾン, Desu Kurimuzon) and ''King Crimson'' (キングクリムゾン, Kingu Kurimuzon) in both [[Suikoden]] and [[Suikoden II]]. The last weapon name is most likely a reference to British Progressive Rock band ''King Crimson''. | |||
Interestingly, [[Yuber]]'s weapon upgrades in the same way in [[Suikoden III]], but instead of a two-handed sword, he's using two single blades in combat. | |||

==Trivia== | |||
*Even though [[Richmond]] claims that no one has ever seen Pesmerga eating, he is a judge during [[Hai Yo]]'s [[Cook Off]] contests. He is known as a harsh judge who generally gives low scores, so perhaps he truly is not used to eating. | |||
