Story: Wow, Suikoden is a cool game. This characterization
rocks. So my older brother (not Bahamut) is walking through these
woods to the elf territory type place. And poof, a girl appears at
a bridge out of nowhere giving us all a heart attack. But she looks
really neato and all and a female pure magician could be a cool party member
to have along. Of course my brother chooses to recruit her, while
we're all left wondering what that was all about and why she seemed so
confused (Heh, we were confused at Viki's confusion, go figure).
Course, when he finally got back to the castle, I found to my horror that,
GASP! She wasn't a playable character! Good thing Konami fixed
this evil EVIL fact in Suikoden II.
Viki's Profile
Name: Viki
Game Appearances: Suikoden I and Suikoden II
Age: 16 in Suikoden I and 16 in Suikoden II. :P
Occupation: That teleporting girl who joins heros in every Suikoden
game by time teleporting to them in a random forest path
Personality: Scatterbrained and naive
Interests and loves: Tempura, happiness
Pet-Peeves: Evil stuff
Commentary
Couldn't put her in the party but at least she was damn useful for teleporting around. Come Suikoden II and the discovery that she was a playable character, I used her almost all the time... even though she was pretty terrible.
Personality: Viki's... funny. Usually with scatterbrained girls you get some sorta ditzy bimbo. But Viki's definately not that at all (kinda ditzy though). That naiveness is a breath of fresh air in a world constantly plagued with war and death. Not much else to say since she doesn't get a very large role in either Suikodens though. She provides some interesting comedy relief though. And she's cute.
Looks: Viki looks nice. Nice hair, nice clothes, cute look etc. Meh, I don't like girls who rely on scantily clad clothing or endowment as their main... attraction. Don't we have enough of those? And of course her general looks are guaranteed to not change too much from Suikoden to Suikoden because she's the same age in all of them thanks to her time-travel ability.
Battle: Viki has the highest luck of all 108 stars. What the hell is that good for? Tengaar's better than her at magic, she has a short range weapon, her magic defense is only semi good for a mage, she has all the physical abilities of a mage (not much), she only has two rune slots, and every once in a while she screws up her spells and accidentally vaporizes the whole party. I love it.
Other: Well, listening in on other peoples' conversations and
Richmond's secrets, it's easy to conclude that she somehow accidentally
teleports herself through time. Judging from the fact that she always
meets the hero in a forest, I think it's destiny or something that guides
her. Course, I write about that enough in her Suikoden II RPG chapters.
Yeesh. Now does anyone know what the hell Waffu means?

Huh? What? Why do Yuffie and Ellen get bigger paragraphs?
Konami needs more Viki! Ah well.
