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.

Famous quotes containing the words leader, stars and/or destiny:
“Most of the ladies and gentlemen who mourn the passing of the nation’s leaders wouldn’t know a leader if they saw one. If they had the bad luck to come across a leader, they would find out that he might demand something from them, and this impertinence would put an abrupt and indignant end to their wish for his return.”
—Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
“I, too, await
The hour of thy great wind of love and hate.
When shall the stars be blown about the sky,
Like the sparks blown out of a smithy, and die?”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“Ever since surgery began, man’s destiny has been to suffer, in order that he might be cured. And no one can change that, gentlemen.”
—Jean Scott Rogers. Robert Day. Mr. Blount (Frank Pettingell)
