Hon Arkraptor (혼 아크랩터, Hon Ahkeuraepteo; or "Horn Arkraptor") is a Regular, who has so far ascended to the 21st floor.

Appearance and Personality
Hon has close cropped silver hair, and fights with a small lance that can fire Shinsoo over a long distance. The lance can also open up like an umbrella to be used as a shield. He does not get along well with others, and tries to attack his allies even when they have a common enemy. He is disliked even more then Viole by the other Regulars. Later on he acts as the voice of reason in the group, sometimes calming down other members when they are upset about their situation. He is protective of Miseng since he used to be a father.

Powers and Abilities
Akraptor fights using his weapon. It looks like a lance when he attacks and opens like an umbrella when he blocks. He is able to shoot Shinsoo using it.

Tower of God: Part 2 - The Return of the Prince
Hon Akraptor's first appearance is in [http://towerofgod.wikia.com/wiki/Ch._82:_20F_-_Last_Chance_(2) Ch. 82]. Kang Horyang and Ja Wangnan feel that he is dangerous, though he seems to be docile. He says it would be a waste of effort to fight, but begins to show his true colors by proposing a vote on who will fail. Akraptor votes for Yeo Miseng, surprising everyone and upsetting Yeo Goseng. He tells that this is a better method than fighting it out. He prompts the next person to vote and Ja Wangnan votes for Akraptor. Akraptor shrugs this off and asks what Horyang thinks. Before he can respond, Viole stands up and anounces that he would drop them all.



Irritated by this, Akraptor points his umbrella like weapon at Viole and tells him to repeat himself, but Viole simply attacks him. Akraptor is surprised at Viole's speed and strength, sensing that he may be dangerous. When Horyang steps in to try to convice Viole to stop, Akraptor fires at them both, only to pretend it was an accident. The second time he does this, Horyang counterattacks, and Viole is able to blast them both away. Once Goseng identifies Viole as a member of FUG, Akraptor realizes that fighting Viole head on would be dangerous and proposes to Horyang an alliance "in order to survive that monster." Horyang gets Viole trapped, and Akraptor does manage to get a shot at him, but it is blocked. Viole then lauches himself away from Teddy and to attack Akraptor on the other side of the room. Akraptor opens his weapon (umbrella style) to stop Viole's retaliation, only to be blasted away again by a delayed Shinsoo bomb. When Wangnan manages to knock Viole down, Akraptor yells at him to seize the chance to attack again. The first part of the test ends before anyone is seriously hurt.

While everyone is waiting for the other Regulars to arrive for the second part of the test, Miseng offers chips to eat. Akraptor holds out his hand while saying, "Hmph. Something like chips..." As a result, she gives this to everyone (including Viole) except Akraptor. After Viole is given chips, Akraptor looks at his empty hand.

In the World's Strongest Regular Test, Akraptor manages to get first among the first 18 regulars with 3,250 points. Horyang and rest of the regulars all best this score. After seeing Yeon fight with Prince over their scores, he laughs at them and says that they weren't getting first anyway. He tells all the others that Viole is the strongest Regular (This is incorrect, as Viole/Baam is an Irregular. Although, this fact is not known by the others). He smirks when Viole gets first place, proving him right.

When Love announces that Viole would be picking the remaining seven members, he is the second person to make a plea to Viole. He gets on his knees and says that he wishes to meet his daughter with tears in his eyes. Wangnan calls him out on this, saying something like that wouldn't make sense. When Miseng cries out to Viole, Akraptor claims her as his daughter (perhaps as a half-joke). He is shocked when Viole announces that he would not accept any teammates and appears unsettled when Viole declares himself as their enemy. He went to rest in the baths with the others, and appeared to strike up the beginnings of a friendship with Horyang. He also violently shooed Ms.Yogurt away from Miseng finding the former a dangerous person.

During the Untrustworthy Room Test, he left his room with Horyang to look for allies. He tried to get into Miseng's room but was kept out, and so started playing a word game with her until Ms.Yogurt arrived, When the latter revealed her plan to attack Miseng, Akraptor fought and defeated her, and subsequently tied her up. Afterwards, he, Goseng and Wangnan were forced to enter Miseng's room to avoid Viole. He goes with Wangnan to steal Ms.Yogurt's room. When Nia's betrayal and death occurred, Wangnan leaves the room in order to get Viole, forcing Akraptor to stay behind. After the test he is seen with the rest of the passing Regulars.

Relationships
Wangnan: Though they are part of the same team, Akraptor harbors a slight dislike for Wangnan due to his jokes aimed at him having a daughter. However, it appears that he is beginning to have some respect for Wangnan due to his planning skills and the empathy that Wangnan has shown.

Horyang: Akraptor gets along very well with Horyang, especially after teaming up against Viole and then becoming roommates. He knows that Horyang has a crush on Goseng.

Miseng: Akraptor actively protects Miseng, treating her as if she were his daughter.

Goseng: Little is known of their relationship due to the lack of interaction.

Viole: Akraptor views Viole as a monster at first, but begins to see a little deeper into his character during The Untrustworthy Room test. After passing the 20F, Akraptor seems to trust Viole a little and doesn't interfere in his personal business.

Yeon: surprisingly, Akraptor has managed to develop a good relationship with Yeon, being the two most unsocial and mature of the group. Yeon often confides her worries to Akraptor and tells him her personal thoughts. Akraptor more then suspects Yeon's affections for Viole. He is sometimes able to calm her down and provides sound input for yeon.

Notes and Trivia

 * In chapter 89 it is implied that Miseng reminded him of his actual daughter so he tried to avoid fighting her.
 * In the Blog Post for Ch. 92 SIU states that Miseng is not his daughter.
