From Gensopedia

Culgan (クルガン) is a minor antagonist in Suikoden II who also appears in Suikogaiden Volume 1. A calm and composed Highland General, Culgan served Agares Blight, Luca Blight, and Jowy Atreides-Blight during the Dunan Unification War. Faithful to his country, Culgan allegedly perished after being defeated during the Allied Army's attack on L'Renouille, but his body has never been found.

Biography

A very composed and calm Highlander, Culgan served under Solon Jhee in Highland's Fourth Army until Jhee was executed for military failure. After that, he was promoted to general, taking over Jhee's position while Seed was made his vice-general. He and Seed were often seen together, despite the strong contrast between their personalities. Culgan was very calm and collected while Seed was quite passionate and temperamental.

Both Seed and Culgan were very loyal to Highland itself as opposed to Kiba Windamier and Klaus Windamier's loyalty to Agares Blight. Because of this, they did not want Luca Blight to be King, as they knew he would only ruin their homeland. When the opportunity presented itself, they allied with and pledged allegiance to Jowy Atreides, who they believed to be the best hope for Highland's future.

During the course of the Dunan Unification War, Culgan did battle with a Harmonian spy by the name of Nash Latkje who had poisoned Seed. Culgan managed to defeat him, acquiring the antidote needed to save Seed.

During the final conflict with the Allied Army, Seed and Culgan stood guard in L'Renouille Palace, waiting to meet the Allied forces that entered. They fought valiantly, but were defeated by the leader of the Allied Army and his forces. They were both rumoured to have died in that battle, but their bodies were never found among the remains of the castle.
