Risotto
Risotto is a non-playable character in Grandia II. He is a member of a travelling group of minstrels. When the troupe is performing, Risotto usually holds the money tray.
Ryudo and Elena first meet Risotto in Agear Town, where he and his companions visit the inn. The troupe is rather exhausted, because they have been attacked by monsters during their travels. The boy Roan, who is travelling in their company, is begging them to return, because one of the monsters has stolen a precious medal from him, but Gonzola, the leader of the troupe, rejects his plea.
Risotto is strong, but dumb. He usually takes everything he's told literally. During the minstrels' travels he depends on Gonzolas instructions.
