List of Characters in Suikoden V - Dragon Cavalry

Dragon Cavalry

The People of the Dragon were not originally Falenans, but allied with Falena in gratitude for Falena helping them drive off Nagarea's attack years ago. The Dragon Cavalry is pledged to stay out of internal disputes, and only guard the border against foreign invaders. However, when the Godwins buy some factions of Armes to support them (thereby becoming traitors and inviting foreign enemies into the country), the cavalry sees no reason not to enter the civil war. However, the Godwins had planned ahead, and sent Nether Gate to Gordius to hold the eggs of the dragon horses hostage. Thanks to the efforts of Georg Prime, Roog, and Rahal, the eggs are saved, and the Dragon Cavalry enters the war on the royalist side. (Depending on the player's choice to defend Ceras Lake Castle, the Prince of Falena may have aided in freeing the eggs as well.)

Roog and Rahal are both members of the Dragon Cavalry, seen at Stormfist for the Games and at various other times by the Prince's group. The two are old friends of Queen's Knight Miakis. Rahal is voiced by Kirk Thornton. Respectively, their mounts are Lance, a red male dragon horse, and Flail, a blue female dragon horse. Craig Laden is the current head of the Dragon Cavalry. He is 44 years old. After the war, Craig returns to Sauronix, but soon retires his position to Rahal. Nick is a young boy training to be a member of the Dragon Cavalry; while his riding is adequate, he is horrible at flute playing. Ax is his violet-colored mount. Yoran is a Gordius stable boy and friend of Nick. Rania is Rahal's older sister and a crafter of the flutes the Dragon Cavalry uses to communicate with the dragon horses.

The Queen's Knight Miakis is also from the Sauronix area. Females are not allowed to join the Dragon Cavalry, so she was sent to train as a Queen's Knight instead so as not to waste her talent - her father was friends with Craig Laden.
