Jeane is a mysterious runemistress who has appeared in each of the five main games of the Suikoden series as the Chiketsu Star. She also appears in Genso Suikogaiden Vol. 1 and Suikoden Tactics. Very little has been revealed about her past or background in the games so far.

Profile 
Edit
While the series has spanned over centuries in-game, she appears to not have aged. The creators of Suikoden have said in an interview that "All of Jeane's family look alike," though this appears to have been said in a humorous light. Nonetheless, it is not clear whether Jeanes with similar appearance and personality traits (giggling frequently, answering questions evasively, and knowing a great deal about runes) exist, or if they are one ageless person. Many recurring characters, including Viki, Nash, and Futch, seem to believe she is the same person; Nash notes that she "never seems to change". In Suikoden V, Genoh perceives her to be of great age, but is confused by her youthful appearance. Also of note in Suikoden III, if the player controls Koroku and talks to her, she asks him to keep how he 'sees' her a secret, implying that her true form may not be human.
Many of the games have featured a detective who can investigate your characters. However, none of these investigations of Jeane have revealed anything beyond the obvious, as the detectives seemingly become confused or intimidated. Suikoden IV has "confessionals" instead of investigations; Jeane "confesses" nothing but seems amused by the scenario.
In-game, Jeane's primary role has been to serve as the player's Rune Sage. She sells runes and can remove and equip them from party members. In Suikoden V, she also can convert runes into spell scrolls, a service provided by different characters in other games. Jeane was able to join parties as a support character in Suikoden III, where she was able to improve spellcasters' casting times, and as a character in battle in IV and V. Aside from her permanently affixed Charm Rune, she also bears a (removable) Lightning Rune and has strong affinities for other runes as well. She uses a rod for physical combat.
In the Queendom of Falena Edit
In Suikoden V, Jeane was given a deeper role to play within the game and participates to a small degree in the plot. She appears to have met Zerase before, who seems to respect Jeane's considerable power as a runemistress. Jeane can apparently "force" some runes onto a bearer that usually can only be possessed by a person whom the Rune chooses (i.e. the Twilight Rune). She declined to do the same with the Sun Rune; most likely because she wasn't able to do it: in Doraat, when Zerase asks her if she tried to equip other runes than the Twillight Rune, she answers that she wasn't lucky with the Sun Rune. She also seems to have a connection to very ancient ruins in Falena which used to be from the Old Armes Kingdom, which was destroyed by the Sun Rune a long time ago. The designers also chose to change Jeane's hair color (normally silvery-white in Suikoden V so as not to get her confused with the Falena family, the members of whom possess silver hair as well); in this game, her hair is pink instead.
The Charm Rune Edit
Jeane bears a Charm Rune which has an unclear effect; it may cause men to be fascinated by or attracted to her, though she seems to manage to do that on looks alone. Some have speculated if it is the Charm Rune itself that causes her to appear so voluptuous and beautiful. In games which Jeane has a form usable in battle (Suikoden IV and Suikoden V), her Charm Rune sometimes causes enemies to protect her instead of attack. It is also important to note that the game's creators have stated that Jeane does not possess a True Rune in any way, shape or form whatsoever (including the Charm Rune), thus causing much speculation about the true nature of her mystery.
Jeane's lack of a True Rune is also seemingly verified in Suikoden III, when Lilly Pendragon is frustrated by her inability to find one anywhere on Jeane's body while they are in the bath house.

Suggestion Box LettersEdit
- About runes
It's not proper to bear runes blindly. You can show your true ablility when you bear a rune that suits you.
- Dogs
Did you know there is one rune that even a dog can bear? I don't recommend it, though....
- His letter
I got a letter from Ace. Very interesting...Tell him I laughed heartily for a change.
- Met a friend
Futch is an old friend. He said I haven't changed. He always knows what to say.
Nash
I also met Nash, and he asked why I hadn't changed. He's rude to call you a monster.
