Ryu Bateson

==Summary==
Ryu is the main character of Breath of Fire 2, and is a member of the dragon clan. He used to live in the town of Gate with his sister, then on a day when he went to visit a mysterious dragon that resided in the forest near his home, everyone in the town suddenly forgot who he was, and all of his family members have disappeared. With nowhere left to go, he and his new friend Bow decided to leave the town to find a new life. They entered a cave, which housed a demonic creature that nearly killed them, but spared them for other purposes. Many years later, Ryu works as a ranger doing any form of dirty work for a quick buck. That all changes when he tries to help his friend get scot-free from a robbery, and he sees that people have been turning into demons. He proceeds to travel the world to find whatever is the cause of this and stop it before it gets any worse.
