Suikoden V: What if I defend the castle? *SPOILERS?

Post by J_10suikofan »

During the near end of Suikoden V, the prince have to make a choice of protecting his castle or fled to Dwarf Camp. According to many walkthrough, one of the Stars of Destiny will die if I choose to stay back and hold the fort. My question is, which character will die?

I'm sorry if this question have been answered elsewhere, but after spending 15 minutes on Google search, I didn't get my answer.

Pretty sure it's Roy.

Is there any way to bring Roy back if he dies? :S

I have not gotten to this part yet, but I am just curious... I kind of want to see both scenes, but I definitely want the good ending / all 108 stars... but in most Suikoden's if some one dies, there is a way to replace them, with another Star (2) or bring them back to life (1) ... I have not beaten 3 or played 4... so I am just curious if any one knows if you are basically screwed in the WHOLE playthrough if you make ONE wrong decision... not their usual M.O... then again this game has New Game+ ... so meh...

You can't get him back or replace him. He stays dead and you are locked out of the good ending. It's a great scene though. Definitely worth watching once. I really respected Roy afterwards. Plus there is a huge NPC reaction to events afterwards which was a nice touch.

I heard there is a Duel with Him and Childerich and -if- he loses he dies... so there is no way he could win? :S I believe you and that sounds good, I am just curious... I have a save from right before this event, backed up.

If you're really curious, but don't want to play it through, there is always youtube.
Power?
Am I looking for Power?
Ever since...The first day I saw you...
I somehow knew...That we would be friends.
I was never lonely...Because you were there.
We chose...Life and death together.
I believed in you...Always...

The duel has little to do with his death. I'm pretty sure you can win.

No, you can still recruit them.
If you did not recruit Faylen and Faylon and choose to defend the castle, you can talk to them (dialogue choices don't matter).

No i mean,if you have recruited them already,before the defence of your HQ...then after Roy dies they will leave both. I heard that the same thing could happen with Belcoot and Marina...if Belcoot dies,then Marina will leave...i don't if these rumors are true.
