[edit] Biography
Much is unknown about Geddoe, by nature a private man who does not freely offer many details of himself. He was friends with the Flame Champion and the person who would later be known as Wyatt Lightfellow and Jimba. The Flame Champion's wife, Sana, claims that Geddoe was always the idealist of the group, but it is unclear what exactly his ideals were. After the war was finished with the True Fire Rune killing huge amounts of people on both sides, the three went their separate ways. Unlike the Flame Champion, Geddoe chose to continue to bear the True Lightning Rune. During this time period, Geddoe was part of the negotiations settling the status of Budehuc Castle (a fact that allows Eike, the Castle's librarian, to recognize him).
It is unknown what Geddoe did in the intervening time, but by the time of Suikoden III he is the commander for Harmonia's Fringe Defense Force. However, his loyalties to Harmonia are clearly questionable at best. Perhaps from his experience in the first War as well as his travels since, Geddoe has a vast network of acquaintances as well as impressive knowledge of etiquette. He counts among his friends Salome of the Zexen Knights, the chief of the Lizard Clan, and an information dealer in Caleria. During the course of the game, Geddoe investigates rumors of the resurgence of the Fire Bringer... a somewhat ironic assignment, since he is a member himself. Instead, he turns his efforts toward determining who is stirring up passions in the Grasslands area with the attack on the Lizard clan as well as the razing of the Karaya Village. This eventually leads to him investigating the Masked Bishop in Le Buque, whom he (correctly) believes is the source of the problem. His mission is eventually changed to locating the True Fire Rune, another task where he already knows the answer. After helping stop the attack on Budehuc Castle (and revealing to Joker his possession of the True Lightning Rune), he decides to return to the Flame Champion's hideaway for the Rune, not for Harmonia's sake, but to stop the Masked Bishop.
As a main character, it's possible for Geddoe to choose to become the new Flame Champion and lead the united Grasslands / Zexen forces against Harmonia. Regardless, Geddoe aids the new Fire Bringer against Harmonia, and later Luc's band.
[edit] Trivia
- It is unknown how he lost his eye.
- Duke seems to believe that he has a rivalry with Geddoe, although Geddoe is fairly blasé about the matter.
- It's not made clear, but it is possible that Geddoe passed information to Harmonia that the Masked Bishop was working against Harmonian interests, though the point became moot after Luc stole Sasarai's True Earth Rune, guaranteeing Harmonian support.
