He is a "searcher" who finds lost objects for people, sent to [[Lospass Island]] on a mission for hotel manager [[Edo Macalister]]. Apparently unbeknownst to him, he is actually an amnesiac [[Sumio Kodai]] suffering from a severe case of psychogenic fugue. | }}'''Sumio Mondo''' is the protagonist of ''[[Flower, Sun, and Rain]]''.

Sometimes, particularly annoying individuals incur his anger, most notably [[Stephan Charbonie]], who messes with Sumio in an antagonistic way, and [[Shoutaro Kai]], who criticizes the game itself. Sumio seems to find attacking ''Flower, Sun, and Rain'' and lampshading its problems to be the most abhorrent thing imaginable, referring to Shoutaro's actions as "worse than the terrorist" and stopping what he's doing to hunt him down. | Sometimes, particularly annoying individuals incur his anger, most notably [[Stephan Charbonie]], who messes with Sumio in an antagonistic way, and [[Shoutaro Kai]], who criticizes the game itself.

Sumio sometimes refers to a lonely past, saying that he can't meet the woman he loves, and that he's "always been alone". These would seem to reflect on the truth behind his identity of [[Sumio Kodai]], a very depressed and lonely individual who has lost many people he loved. It is suggested that Sumio might be remembering more and more as the game goes on, as he at one point brings up the name [[Kamui Uehara|Kamui]] without it being stated by anyone else. Sumio Kodai's transformation into Sumio Mondo seems to be a way of repressing his depression and past, and taking on the persona of a more positive person in a significantly lighter and less tragic world. | Sumio sometimes refers to a lonely past, saying that he can't meet the woman he loves, and that he's "always been alone".
