The Sunshine King (日輪魔王, Nichirinmaō) is an enemy which appears in Suikoden.
The Sunshine King is exceptionally powerful, you won't meet another non-boss enemy with its impressive stats until you reach the Floating Fortress of Shasarazade. It has the ability to attack multiple members of your party with a single attack and is proficient in both physical and magical attacks. However, it only ever attacks on its own, making it easy to overwhelm and defeat with a strong party.
It is also the only source of Window Setting 3.
