Analysis

This character analysis section may not be accurate to every player's experience.

Runan joins in the first chapter and is available for all chapters on his side of the route splits. His base stats are mediocre apart from speed, and his growth rates are only slightly above average by TearRing Saga standards, but he can immediately contribute by using his Rapier to deal with armored and cavalry units. Due to his excellent availability he has plenty of opportunity to increase his offensive stats and start holding his own in direct combat, though his durability won't be fantastic due to his shaky defense and low magic.

Runan will begin falling off in the mid game due to his unremarkable growth rates, a swath of powerful and useful new recruits, and the increasing prevalence of extremely tanky enemies, many of whom make use of shields to boost their defense. Additionally most units will begin promoting, leaving him behind in both fighting prowess and movement alike, as Runan is unable to promote normally. While he does have an extra ten levels to take advantage of before he needs to promote, Runan's route has no arenas until after he promotes, no map skirmishes, and few good opportunities to farm experience from the map.

However, after his fairly late promotion after chapter 26, Runan gains significant boosts to his stats, massively increasing his combat potential and making it much safer to have him as a frontline combat unit, in addition to team support with his skill Charisma. Late in the game, Runan obtains his second personal weapon, the powerful Holy Sword Reeve, which has infinite durability, high might, negates dragon scales, and halves breath damage taken, allowing Runan to easily take on the many lategame Dragon Zombies, as well as the final boss Gerxel.

Runan

Used in the Yutona Heroes War Chronicles fan translations.[which?] Many possible namesakes. Could be named after an administrative region in Henan, China or a commune in France. The name could alternatively be derived from Lunan, originating from the Irish surname Ó Luanáin, meaning "descendant of Luanan" and itself derived from the Irish word luan "hound" or "warrior".[1] It is also the name of a hamlet in Angus, Scotland.

Japanese

リュナン

Officially romanized as Runan, though unused assets and the game's instruction manual also romanize it as Ryunan.
