During Suikoden V, Kyle mostly wears the regular full armor of a Queen's Knight; black clothing with gold trim worn over white underclothing. He also wore red eyeliner as part of his Queen's Knights regalia. Aside from the tassels, which have a tiered pattern at the top, he wears the armor in a straightforward manner.

When undercover in Lelcar, he wore a commoner outfit reminiscent of his adolescence there, a great contrast to his Queen's Knight uniform. It is a mustard-colored armless tunic over black underclothes and pants with a piece of armor covering his left shoulder.

Personality

As a result of his free-spirited life as a boy, Kyle is uninhibited and honest about his values, occasionally chaffing against the restrictions of the Queen's Knights. He sometimes wandered off when on guard duty but was overall a skill and dependable knight, capable in both sword fighting and rune magic. His swordplay was based on a loose stance, making it difficult for his opponents to read his movements.

He has a strong sense of humor and is a straightforward person who hates corruption. His tendency towards peace sometimes led him to be accused of being a Barows Faction supporter, but this was not the case.

However, Kyle is also a bit of a womanizer and has a tendency to hit on women as soon as he sees them. This trait is probably the main reason why he is seen as frivolous. This habit has been with him for a long time and many women in Lelcar still hold a grudge against him.

It was considered to be enough of an issue that Ferid forbade Kyle from accompanying the royal delegation to Lunas for the purification rite there.

History
