The Leader of The Stars of Destiny
The leader for the Stars of Destiny in each installment is traditionally the Tenkai Star, with the exception of Suikoden III. In each of these games, the player may input a name of their own choice for these characters. Suikoden III has three possible leaders, with the Tenkai Star being Thomas, the master of the castle the Stars rally. In certain media adaptations of the Suikoden series, the protagonists are usually given a name by the authors of each adaptation.
- The protagonist of the original Suikoden is named Tir McDohl (ティル・マクドール, Tiru Makudŏru?) in the Drama CD adaptation and in the novelization by Shinjiro Hori and Louie (リューイ?) in the manga adaptation. He is addressed only by his surname, McDohl, in the games.
- The protagonist of Suikoden II is named Riou (リオウ?) in the Drama CD adaptation and in the novelization by Shinjiro Hori and Tao (タオ?) in the manga adaptation.
- The protagonist of Suikoden IV is named Razro (ラズロ, Razuro?) in the novelization by Mie Takase.
- The protagonist of Suikoden V is named Freyjadour (フレイアドゥール, Fureiadoūru?) in the novelization by Shinjiro Hori, Ardil (アーディル, Ādiru?) in the manga adaptation, and Faroush (ファルーシュ, Farūshu?, a portmanteau of his parents' names) in a promotional save file released in Japan.

“the stars turn slowly
in the blue foil beside them
like the eyes of a mild savior.”
—James Tate (b. 1943)
“Talk of a divinity in man! Look at the teamster on the highway, wending to market by day or night; does any divinity stir within him? His highest duty to fodder and water his horses! What is his destiny to him compared with the shipping interests?”
