Ship Leesoo


 * "I guess I haven't told you guys about my amazing killer-arts!!!"


 * - Leesoo to Hatsu and Anak

Ship Lee Soo (십이수, Shib Yisoo) is a Regular. He is relatively weak, possessing no special skills other than his ability to deduce. However, that given, his abilities of brain-power surpass even those of Koon's. Nonetheless, he made it past most of the tests on the Second Floor and was assigned the Scout position.

Appearence and Personality
Ship is a normal-looking person with dimples on his cheeks and close cropped hair. He is always wearing a purple jumpsuit.

He is a bit scared of all the really strong Regulars competing against him, but is quite enthusiastic about the tests (when he's not scared) and has shown strength in difficult times. He is also more loyal than most, as he has not shown any signs of wanting to betray his teammates yet. He is a fairly righteous man.

In Part 1, Ship is a Gag character.

Ship also helps Koon devise strategies as per the Crown Game and the Final Examination, though Ship is always used as Koon's pawn.

Tower of God: Part 1
Ship turned up on the Second Floor with all the other Regulars. He explored the field around him, and then accidentally ran into Anak and Hatsu, who were fighting. He freaked out at them, but managed to avoid being killed, and was going to run away when it was announced that the Regulars had to form teams. He was shocked that he would have to team up with two very powerful Regulars, and got scared about it, but realized he had no choice and approached them. They completely ignored him, which actually made him pretty annoyed. He grabbed onto their shoulders as the timer went off, qualifying them as a "team".



He then tried to convince Anak and Hatsu that he was actually not useless, by saying he was trained in the "killer arts". He barely managed to get through Lero-Ro's Shinsoo barrier, with his face bloodied, However, he aced Yu Han Sung's door test, deducing the answer better than even Koon, in only about a minute. He was the only Regular to figure out the whole answer all on his own.

His team went into the Crown Game, to try and ascend to the next level early. Anak sat on the throne while he and Hatsu fought the attackers. Ship came up against Ho and Rinnen, and was able to hold then off for a little while despite being unarmed. However, when they attacked him in conjunction, they gained the upper hand, but Hatsu turned up and defeated both of them easily. He and Hatsu were then blasted away by Phonsekal Laure. After Anak defeated Laure and made her bet with Baam, Ship watched the rest of the Crown Game from his team's cell.



He was then assigned the Scout position, and seeded first. He managed to get on Koon's "friend" list during training. In the hide-and-seek test he was put on Team A, and used as bait to attract Quant. He managed to get Quant to drop his guard, but the Ranker proved to be tougher than expected, and the plan failed. Ship then teamed up with a few other Regulars to try and delay Quant, and showed courage in trying to fight him, but they were all easily blown away.

After the test, as Koon lamented their failure, Ship told him that they had done their best, and that Team B would probably fail as well. He then noticed that Laure had been holding a rude sign over his shoulder, and tried to kick him.

Ship did not reveal Koon's scheme to the others when Koon manipulated the others into helping Baam in the Submerged fish test because he sympathized with Baam. Later on in the test, he stood defensively over Anak when she was attacked by Ren after he led Yuri to the scene. Ship was entrusted with the wingtree insignia by Yuri to give to Baam. After the test, he showed distress over Baam's death. He felt like he owed a debt to Baam and backed up Hatsu's plan in helping Rachel, recruiting the others for the cause.

Tower of God: Part 2 - The Return of the Prince
He has yet to make an appearance, but he is known to be helping Rachel climb the tower.

In a spoiler posted by SIU, Koon spoke to him about his sadness over Baam's death. Koon suspects foul play during the test and wants revenge, stating how Ship and the others were tools for this.

It is hinted that when Koon split the team into Two, he put Ship in the Trailblazing team designed to attract attention. It is very possible that Ship is the leader of the attention drawing team, since both princesses Anak, and Androssi are on that team and they wouldn't listen to each other, and Ship is the smartest.

Relationships
Baam: Leesoo and Baam are relatively good friends during Part 1. Like the other characters, he feels indebted to Baam after he changed the rules so that the entire team could pass.

Koon: Leesoo and Koon are on good terms with each other. As the two smartest people among the Regulars, they collaborated closely during the tests. Though Koon always have hidden plans on the agenda, Leesoo is sometimes capable of seeing through them.

Anak: Apart from Androssi, Leesoo seems to have the deepest relationship with Anak. Even though Anak hid the fact that she was the daughter of another Princess, he still trusted her.

Hatsu: Hatsu and Ship teamed up during the first test on 2F. Though they were shaky at first, the two became friends rather quickly.

Black March: Anak thought that Ship was a hansome man, so she asked him to speak to the Black March, the March however disagreed giving violent electric shocks to Ship.

Powers and Abilities
Excellent Deduction Skills: Although not all around smart, Ship's deduction skills are excellent, even exceeding Koon's. Upon closer inspection, his intelligence stat is higher than that of your average Ranker.
