Great General: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 10:32, 22 December 2024

Great General (帝国将軍, Teikoku Shōgun, Imperial General) is a military rank present in both the Scarlet Moon Empire and the Toran Republic. It is only given to a handful of officers at one time.

Information

Each Great General commanded an army within the Imperial Army structure and each were also normally charged with overseeing a region of the Scarlet Moon Empire.

During the War of Succession, six Great Generals served under Barbarosa Rugner; Teo McDohl, Kasim Hazil, Georg Prime, Milich Oppenheimer, Kilauea Shulen and Kwanda Rosman.

Immediately following the war, Georg Prime would leave the country, considering his contract fulfilled, vacating his spot while Kilauea Shulen would pass away several years later in a sudden accident, being succeeded by her daughter Sonya.

With this, the six Great Generals became the five Great Generals most known for their actions during the Gate Rune War. Four of the five generals, recognizing the continued deterioration of the Empire and the collapse of Barbarosa's reign eventually defected to the Toran Liberation Army while the fifth, Teo McDohl, gave his blessing to his son before his death.

Following the formation of the Toran Republic, the Great Generals were again reorganized. While Milich Oppenheimer retired from his position, the other three surviving generals; Kasim Hazil, Sonya Shulen and Kwanda Rosman, retained their posts. The three were supplemented by three Liberation Army officers; Kai, Camille and Valeria.

-* The term Great General (大将軍 ''Dai Shougun'') is used inconsistently in the original Japanese release of Suikoden. Usually, they are simply referred to as "generals" or "the five generals." The term also doesn't appear with any frequency in publications.
