Yun // Suikoden III // Reserved

Personality: It could be said that Yun is oddly calm and mature for a child who knew when and how they were going to die from the very start of their life, but that isn’t so surprising when you take into account that she isn’t just any child. As a shaman of the mysterious Alma Kinan, Yun simply didn’t have the time to dwell on an unchangeable fate. Yun found strength instead of fear in her fate. As she put it, there were few people who ever found their purpose in life and got to see it through; having a firm reason for her existence gave her all the resolve she ever needed. With that in mind, she moved on with her life, intending to enjoy what she had left of it. This affects her outlook on life overall, how she deals with it; treating every day like it must be a good day, helping what can be helped, letting be and consoling what cannot, and tending to others before herself. Even at the end, her thoughts were of explaining that what had to be done was necessary to save, well, everyone to Chris and how the knight was a far kinder person than the she thought she was.

Since she had always been treated like an equal rather than a child in her own village, she finds it cute when outsiders act otherwise. It really doesn’t bother her at all! It’s refreshing to meet people who don’t expect a serious amount of maturity from her, even if it causes misunderstandings here and there. In fact, not a lot at all seems to bother her, not even when people call her weird or possessed. She knows it’s rarely out of malice and how odd she must seem to those outside of her village with all her talk of spirits and fate (not to mention how she speaks to plants and animals, if Kidd’s investigations are to be believed). That, too, amuses her and she can usually defuse any worries about her with how friendly or assuring she is. Of course, despite how responsible and grown-up she may act, she still retains the curious nature of any other child, full of questions, never too shy to approach anyone with them, especially if there’s a good story to be had out of them.

And while Yun does possess a fair amount of tact, something expected, amongst other things, when one is a shaman of the village, she is fairly open about what is going on and what is on her mind. Of course, that doesn’t stop her from pulling the mysterious seer card to get people to go along with her plans. That, however, is reserved for times when something absolutely needs to happen, like when she needs an escort to travel with her or to convince certain people to go help a village win a fight. In that way she is well aware of her power and uses it to her advantage, but never excessively so; just as she knows how to take advantage of that power, she also knows how abusing it would only do harm, which a peaceful girl such as Yun would never dare cause.
