[edit] Background

Neclord is a vampire in possession of the Blue Moon Rune during the time period of Suikoden I and Suikoden II, his original hometown is unknown. He was originally a member of the Village of the Blue Moon. However, he stole the Blue Moon Rune from the village, killing a majority of the vampires, except for a few who decided to prey upon humans. Since then, Neclord has joined forces with Windy and Yuber, and together they have created wide-spread ruin. Neclord abducts young maidens, and forces them to marry him. He was bored one day, and decided to destroy Northwind killing all of its inhabitants, save for Viktor who was travelling at the time.
