Not to be confused with the Gau of Suikoden III.

Overview

Profile[]

Background[]

Gau is a barbaric man who lives in the forest of Hermitage Island. He was raised by monsters, but the details of how that came to be is uncertain.

Story[]

Game[]

During the Island Liberation War, while Razro, the leader of the Island Liberation Navy was wandering around the forest of Hermitage Island, he encountered Gau, who fought him. After Gau was defeated, he respected Razro's strength and joined the Island Liberation Navy. While he was on board of the Dauntless, he grew friendly with Dario, who was the only person who could understand his language. After the war, he returned deep to the woods, seemingly to go on a wild rampage.

Role in the Game[]

After naming your army and ship, return to the Hermitage Island and wander around the forest in front of Elenor's house. Gau will eventually appear as a random encounter. Once you defeat him, he will join you.

Much like Fu Su Lu and Hallec before him, Gau is an incredibly powerful combatant with high scores in HP, attack, and defense. Interestingly, unlike his precursors, Gau also has an exceptionally high speed stat, and one that increases consistently with level ups, putting him on par with the ninja characters in that regard (and eventually surpassing them). In addition, his regular attack hits three times, making either a Double Strike or Killer Rune the perfect fit for him. Gau does have lower scores in skill, magic, and magic defense, but that's to be expected. All of his positive traits make him one of the most valuable party members in Suikoden IV.

Gau can participate in the Berserker Attack.

Gau has a Good Will with Dario.

  • Keen: You have done well by coming here. In this room, you may confess what is in your heart and accept proper judgement.
Gau: ...
  • Keen: Would you secretly inform me about anyone on board this ship who you think is causing problems?
Gau: Uga?
  • Keen: Then, would you tell me what you think of Razro?
Gau: Ugaaaa!! Ugaaaaaaaa!! Razro! Strong!!
  • Keen: Finally, quietly confess the things you wish to atone for, or all the things that you are thankful for.
Gau: Uga?
  • Keen: Then, I shall pass judgement!

Gau: Uga!

Gau: Uga?!!! Ugaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!
