Badeaux, Hugo's father

Except for the fact that the black portion of Hugo's hair is directly stated by Suikoden II and III character designer Fumi Ishikawa to be a legacy of his father who also had black hair.

How did I miss that? Where does it say that? I've played Suikoden III many times and I haven't seen much about Hugo's dad. :oops:

Look at the editorial again. It says flat out that that is what she said about the character design. Clearly, this has come from one of the many publications about the series that are only published in Japanese and that we only have access to when translated by someone like SARS.

As for the rest... do we actually know, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that Lucia had no contact with the Highlanders prior to her arrival on the scene in the game? Could she not already have been coming to Highland before the assassination attempt? No reason she might not have taken a lover prior to the beginning of the war, even.

This is all very interesting. Blue Thunder's Qlon theory being the funniest thing I've read in a few days. i spoke with Scarlet on AIM a while back and we discussed who we thought was Hugo's father and she presented a good argument for Luca. I don't know all the history behind all the charaters so I was misinformed by him. sacrlet never mentioned the "nice guy" thing. All he said was Black hair and the time frame etc etc as you can read on his posts.

Harukaze presented the Han Cunningham pretty darn well, but the recent mathematical gestation period of a Suikoden female puts a spin on things. If the gestation period is 12.5 months (that'd be the basic minimum given the Jillia case) the timeframe in which anyone can impregnate Lucia goes to before the war.

It said it was someone whom we've met before in the Suikoden series. Where does it say we met him in Suiko II? Its well known that people travel all over the place. Could there be a black haired person who traveled to Grasslands, Highland or Harmonia from Suikoden I? I know that Mose and the other blacksmiths liked to travel abroad. Could it be one of them? It never conclusively said Barbarossa died after his leap. Could he have come to his senses, realized Windy was truly evil and that he shamed his country, fled to Highland or Grasslands where his face was unreckognized and had a trist with Lucia? Anything can be said, we just have to wait or speculate..

Of all the theories said I think that Han Cunningham is the most ideal. He fits the bill, and his history with Genkaku shows he's a nice and honorable man. Traits that can be seen in Hugo. The whole longer gestation thing can be worked around. Do you think that one day Lucia was like, "Today I'm gonna avenge my father's death.. do de doo, hi there highland i'm gonna help you, I'll kill theresa Wisemail and Riou". Not likely. There was probably a long period of talks between highland officials and Lucia to get the ball rolling on her revenge. This gives ample time for Han to buddy up to Lucia. His death to Riou would explain why we never see or hear of him in Suikoden III.

The fact that Han Cunningham was an honorable man actually what makes me think that he can't be Hugo's father. He was a man of honor and it is doubtful for me to think that he'd mix business with pleasure.

Then the age factor. Han Cunningham was born in IS 396 while Lucia was born in IS 439. There's a 47 year gap between them. Now I know that if Demi Moore can date Ashton Kutcher, then why can't Han dated Lucia? But in a sense, Han was an honorable man, and I doubt that he'd date someone who was around 1/3 of his own age.

I once posted a whole list of possible canidates for Hugo's dad on another forum. I don't know if it'd be okay for me to post it here, too.

Anyway, a few candidates were

1. Shin
2. Morgan
3. Sydonia
4. Pesmerga
5. Fu Su Lu

I don't really have evidence for either character other than "they traveled places" or "we only saw them in S1 so who knows" but you never know. *shrugs*

It's actually possible but I doubt a man who had devoted himself to beasts and nature would even marry..... :? couldn't imagine the two of them doing "it" and so I put this theory into my trashcan
