Votato has become increasingly difficult to utilize so I decided it was time to import the information to the wiki. This is also done incase Votato stops working.

Phantaminum
Rank: 1 Sobriquet: Riddle Age: Unknown Height: Unknown Birthplace: Unknown Position: Unknown Currently in the 1st rank of the Tower.

Phantaminum appeared suddenly in the Tower and broke into the Zahard's inner palace, killing a lot of royals and courtiers. He succeeded in breaking all of the lines of defense and facing Zahard but disappeared without a fight.

That's how he got his sobriquet. There's another reason for this sobriquet, and this is because of his style of combat. It is said that he had a freewheeling and desultory combat style, and had used a weapon that was never seen anywhere inside the Tower. Most of the eye witnesses died or lost their minds with fear so the stories were not accurately reported.

The negative views toward the irregulars have grown because of him and it had a big impact on Urek when he climbed the Tower. When Phantaminum broke into the palace, it is said he met Ha Yuri Zahard in the inner palace, and there is a great diversity of opinion as to why he didn't kill her. Yuri Zahard didn't say anything about the matter except that 'He was a messy one.'

There were a lot of objections in the Ranker Administration Office as to giving Phantaminum, who disappeared after the attack of the palace of Zahard, becoming inactive, the top rank. But everyone agreed his impressive strength alone was overwhelming. As a result, Phantaminum became the No. 1 Ranker after only one battle, dragging the 'Red Tower' Enryu down to 2nd rank.

He was seen very little in the Tower after the attack of the palace, and most of the stories are rumors, therefore it's hard to confirm any of the stories. There's a rumor that he is on cat-and-dog terms with another irregular, Urek Mazino, but it is not confirmed, either. All in all, Phantaminum is a monster whose information starts with a riddle and ends with a riddle. Every Ranker is on the watch for any movement from this monster.

Enryu
Rank: 2 Sobriquet: Red Tower Age: Unknown Height: 1 m 84 cm Birthplace: Unknown Position: Spear Bearer, Throwing type Enryu's identity is as mysterious as Phantaminum. His strangest record is that 'he had murdered a Administrator'. By killing a Guardian of the Tower, who were thought to be immortal, he let the people know that the Guardians were not absolute beings. That's how Enryu became the No. 1 Ranker with the nickname of 'Guardian Murderer'. He maintained his rank for a long time but lost it to Phantaminum.

The funny thing is that Enryu and Phantaminum never had a battle. They have never even met, and there are a lot of opinions on who would win if they actually fought each other.

His Sobriquet, Red Tower was added because Shinsu in the Tower turned red whenever he appeared, but the reason for this is unknown.

Enryu is known to fight by way of creating thousands of spears made with Shinsu and striking them downwards. Some people use a poetic expression, describing it 'Red Rain', but it wouldn't look beautiful from the victim's point of view. Enryu's overwhelming control against the Shinsu is rated a cut above the Guardians, and it is a 'heretical' ability, breaking the laws of the Tower.

It is not known where Enryu is or what he's doing currently, and it is rumored that Headon is seeking him with avidity.

Zahard
Rank: 3 Sobriquet: King of Tower Age: Unknown Height: 2 m 40 cm Birthplace: Unknown Position: Fisherman 'King of Tower' Zahard is the most famous and greatest being in the whole Tower. In the ancient times, when there was no civilization in the Tower, he came into the Tower and built his own empire. Zahard is a great king and a true warrior. Everyone living in the Tower is the son or daughter of Zahard (figuratively). He is like a god to the habitants of the Tower.

Zahard conquered the Tower with the 10 families, and gained control of the 134 floors from the floor Guardians. (Some floors were conquered by Zahard's daughters.)

He rules over people as the ruler of the tower but is not currently active. But the 3rd rank seems poor when reflecting his influence and the splendor of his past. (He was firmly the No. 1 Ranker before Phantaminum and Enryu appeared.)

People who have seen Zahard in battle are very rare, but he is known to have outstanding power, because 'White Sword' Arie Hon, who was even with Urek Mazino had recollected 'I have fought Zahard ten times and always defeated, thereby I became his servant.' Zahard's daughters, who are imbued with his powers are all categorized as the 'Ultimate species'.

Zahard is currently resting, leaving the outside activities to his daughters, but a lot of people are expecting the day Zahard moves will be the day when the limit of the Tower becomes another floor up.

Of course, more and more people are anticipating the day when Zahard's 'only son' is born.

Urek Mazino
Rank: 4 Sobriquet: Ray-Baracuda Age: Unknown Height: 1 m 95 cm Birthplace: Unknown Position: Fisherman Currently the strongest Ranker that is active. He is an Irregular, and the most recent to be in the tower of the top 5.

His sobriquet, Baracuda is the name of the most aggressive and ferocious white steel eel in the Tower. (Ray is the sobriquet from his combat style, which is forwarding Shinsu as fast as light. Although his formal sobriquet is Ray Baracuda, just Baracuda can be used to refer to Urek Mazino in the Tower.)

It took 50 years for him to pass every test and climb to the top of the tower, and he is recorded as the fastest person to climb the inner tower in a normal way.

Although his main position is Fisherman, he is proficient in most every position and very aggressive in all of them. He is proficient in flying Shinsu fast, and the power is impossible to block even with the superior armor inventory. People who have seen Urek Mazino in combat have evaluated his combat style as 'Aggressive, ferocious and fast. But tremendously beautiful.'

Urek Marizo, while standing in the backline, had once knocked down a Light Bearer who was also standing in the backline. Figuratively speaking, it's similar to a goalkeeper scoring a goal.

His relationships are somewhat dull because of his masculine manner. He has a magnanimous personality, but is very unpopular among women because of this. It is rumored that he has a crush on one of the Zahard's Princesses, Garam Zahard, but Garam Zahard herself hates Urek Mazino. Of course, this is not actually confirmed.

He is also acquainted with another princess, Yuri, and it is because he was one of the person to start 'Wolhaiksong'. Yuri said this of him, "He's the best to fight together, but the worst to live with."

On the other hand, he has great support from men. 'White Sword' Arie Hon praised him as the true warrior after he fought him, and his best friend, Baek Ryun said he was the number one comrade and man. 'Blue Advance' Koon Eduan picked Urek as 'One of the people I wish to battle.' Of the three, Baek Ryun, who is one of the founders of 'Walhaiksong' has a special relationship with Urek, and the two's influence inside the Tower is already even with one of the 10 Families.

The relationship between Phantaminum and Urek is a very controversial issue, but it seems to be a fact that Urek tracked Phantaminum and followed him inside the Tower, although nothing has been reported clearly.

As the strongest of the current active Rankers, and as one of the founder of the Winged Tree, or Walhaiksong, Urek Mazino is one of the most influential people inside the tower. And it is not too much to say that his every move is related to the future of the Tower.

Arie Hon
Rank: 5

Sobriquet: White Sword, White Oar Age: Unknown Height: 1 m 87 cm Birthplace: Unknown Position: Fisherman One of the ten warriors who have pioneered the Tower. Current head of the Arie Family. Owner of the White Oar, the only sword made by Macseth. The name of the sword is from Oarfish, a legendary white steel eel.

Outstanding swordsman, who has no problem with his mysterious swordsmanship even in high dense of Shinsu. He fought Urek Mazino evenly, but after the combat, he is known to have said 'Urek Mazino is much better.'

He is known to be very temperate and elegant normally. He is well mannered even in a fight, but has never fought anyone after fighting Urek.

He is the owner of the White Oar, the only sword made by Mecseth. White Oar is known as the only S+ grade weapon inside the Tower. Warriors in the Tower say the well-edged weapon is 'like an oarfish' because of this. Mecseth had never produced a weapon after making White Oar.

Arie Hon stays at the 100th floor of the Tower as the head of Arie family, and his territory is the largest of the 10 families. He is famous for giving special tests to the regulars with an extraordinary reward, but the level of difficulty is so high that most of the regulars don't even dare take them.

The last person to pass the special test was his daughter, Arie Hagipherione Zahard, and the reward is still unknown. The rumor says it was a 'very personal and childish reward'.

Urek Mazino also passed this test, and that is when he fought Arie Hon. Arie Hon's task was to endure his attacks for 10 minutes, but Urek Mazino fought evenly. Urek Mazino became the most famous Regular in the Tower thanks to this opportunity. The reward from Arie Hon was the transfer of the control over one of the floors in Arie Mazino's possession. After Urek became a Ranker, the 77th floor became his, and he transferred the control over to Baek Ryun, who set up the stronghold of Wolhaiksong there.

Khun Eduan
Rank: 6 Sobriquet: Marlin, Blue Advance Age: Unknown Height: 2 m 27 cm Birthplace: Unknown Position: Spear Bearer, Fisherman One of the head of the 10 families. Father of Khun Aguero Agnis.

Known for his magnanimous personality and taking delight in fighting. His sobriquets are 'Marlin' and 'Blue Advance'. The name Marlin was given because of the likeness of his enormous spear, and there's a rumor that if he decompresses his spear it would pierce half of the Tower. (The name of his spear is Mago. When Mago is ignited its power increases to an abnormal figure.)

Another of his sobriquet, Blue Advance, is from the property of the Shinsu he controls. The Shinsu he controls is very fast and has tremendous electrical power. There were a lot of opinions that his sobriquet should be the Electric Eel because of this property, but Khun Eduan directly refused this suggestion, threatening he would 'kill anyone who called him an eel'. In the end, his sobriquet became Blue Advance and Marlin.

Khunn Eduan is famous for his lewdness, and he is the man with the most wives of the 10 family heads. He has a lot of children, so there are a lot of veiled competition among his children in the family. Too much competition has created the 'official' fights. It is held once a year, with the following rule: 'When the children of Khun become the age of 10, they are to fight each other. The winners are recognized as the true children of Khun.' The winners are recognized as the true children and gets the crest of the family, but the losers become the 'abandoned' and do not get the crest. Although the fights are inhumane and bloody, Khun himself says he's 'not very interested'.

One of his daughter, Khun Maschenny Zahard, is the owner of the Yellow May, and is the only princess of Zahard in his family who is given one of the 13 month weapons.

Khun Eduan have issued a special test with shocking conditions, which are 'Whoever fights him and wins is given everything in the family', but none have survived the test so far.

Eurasia Enne Zahard
Rank: 7 Sobriquet: Great White Shark Age: 482 (sealed after) Height: 1 m 74 cm Birthplace: Unknown Position: Fisherman Only princess who had owned the Colorless December. Displayed extremely talented abilities, and was graded differently with other princesses. She was highly supported due to her gorgeous looks and pacific personality. She went up to the top of the Tower fast and became one of the Rankers.

But after she became a Ranker and was given the Colorless December she started to change oddly. Sometimes she killed with no reasons. She would wear pacific expression, and suddenly attack people in anger.

About the same time Garam Zahard killed Yuram Zahard and seized the Indigo July, and the rumor that Enne Zahard was connected to the two princesses started to spread. Some days later, Garam Zahard and Enne Zahard disappeared. (They became the High-rankers after this incident. Garam Zahard was given the sobriquet of Mako Shark, and Enne Zahard was given the sobriquet of Great White Shark.)

The battle between the princesses did not cause problem (even if they killed each other). But the disappearance of an insane princesses in the possession of a 13 month weapons was a serious matter, so Zahard ordered to catch the two princesses quickly.

Garam Zahard was sane (contrary to the rumors) and was able to hide herself, but Enne Zahard was different. She knocked down Zahard's men and killed a lot of Rankers who chased her. But even she couldn't oppose all of the Rankers, and Enne Zahard was caught and was brought in front of Zahard himself. (Yunie Zahard, and Rebecca Pon Zahard was killed, and Khun Maschenny Zahard and Pondo Zahard helped catching her. There's a rumor that Zahard himself interfered. There's another rumor that Heice Zahard who refused the 13 month weapon after becoming a Ranker participated in the battle.)

After this Enne Zahard was sealed in an unknown place, and Colorless December was also sealed, because it was in reckless state like Enne Zahard.

Adori (Adoru) Jahad
Rank: 7 [TN: Strange, it should be 8, but on the blog post it says 7…] Sobriquet: Killer Whale Age: 5000+ Height: 1 m 84 cm Birthplace: Floor 132 Position: Fisherman Adori Zahard. The strongest Princess and the Commander-in-Chief of Zahard's Army.

Wielding the only S-rank weapon of the 13 Months Series, the Golden November, she has a multitude of both male and female fans because of her golden hair and beautiful face.

Although she is a ranker above rankers, she has no noticeable accomplishments or achievements. And even though she is the Commander-in-Chief of Zahard’s Army, because she does not like wandering around, she rarely participates in active duty.

Even with this, she is still entrusted with being the Commander-in-Chief of the army.

Why?

Only one reason:

Her unfathomable strength.

Even before she became a ranker, she defeated an advanced level ranker (quite easily), and even Garam Zahard was overwhelmingly pushed to her limits before her.

(Before the Eurasia Enne Zahard incident, Garam and Adori fought once. It hadn’t been 100 years since Adori became a ranker, yet she was able to overwhelm Garam.)

And since then, in the few fights against rankers, she defeated all of them with overwhelming combat prowess.

Many people compare her to Enne Jahad, but no one can easily determine who is stronger between the two. The debate still rages on today and is a favored topic of discussion amongst rankers.

Adori is known to be a cold and quiet person. She has little care for the happenings of the world, and she often gets lost in her own fantasies; however there are many secrets in her private life and no one really knows her true self.

But.

It is widely known that she will allow a person she likes to call her by her birth name.

(Her birth name is Adoru).

Baek Ryun
Rank: 9 Sobriquet: None (declined) Age: Unknown Height: Unknown (Normally 1m 67cm) Birthplace: Unknown Position: Wave Controller Baek Ryun, one of the Wolhaiksong's leaders and most gifted wave controller in the Tower's history.

He, who was born in the middle area as an orphan and roamed without a residential card, eventually goes into a forest to avoid contact with others. Becoming one with the forest, he lives there for a long time. He naturally learns to control Shinsu through living in the forest. Later, Headon, interested in Baek Ryun's abilities, picks him. As a regular, he quickly becomes a ranker; as a ranker, he then returns to the forest without any activity. After returning to the forest, he spends a long time gardening the forest. His forest, which was like a living animal, is said to emit a mysterious atmosphere..

Urek Mazino, who at the time was climbing the tower, heard of Baek Ryun's forest. He visits Baek Ryun; soon, they become best friends. Baek Ryun was especially interested in the world outside the Tower that Urek often spoke of. Hearing Urek's stories, Baek Ryun himself dreams of living in the world outside of the tower.

After Urek Mazino left to climb the tower again, Baek Ryun's ambition continued to grow. He then later confesses his passion to Urek Mazino who returned as a ranker. Urek Mazino, delighted by Baek Ryun's confession, asks to leave with him; however, Baek Ryun declines the offer, saying that he cannot leave this forest which is like his own life. It is told that Urek Mazino, pounding his chest, then said this.

"Then I will give this forest a pair of wings. I will make it so that these trees can follow you everywhere."

Baek Ryun thought Urek was just rambling because Urek was drunk; however, Urek was serious. Urek absorbed everything in the forest as he shouted like a thunder, eventually, the enormous forest shrunk to a size of a fist.

Urek then gave the compressed forest with wings in a box to Baek Ryun. Baek Ryun was very surprised and grateful; however, there was a problem. The compressed forest was too heavy for Baek Ryun to carry. So Baek Ryun gave the box to Urek, This winged box became Urek and Baek Ryun's symbol of friendship.

Later, the forest was moved to the 77th Floor.

Rankers who heard of Baek Ryun and Urek gathered to the forest, eventually forming 'Wolhaiksong' with Baek Ryun as its leader. (Also called the Winged Tree.)(The name Wolhaiksong originates from the story between Urek and Baek Ryun.)

The name Baek Ryun originated because of the fine silk that he was covered with when he was abandoned. (There's also a story that his name is because of this silk-like personality.) After becoming a high ranker, Baek Ryun was offered an sobriquet by the Ranker Administration Office; however, it is told that he declined.

Baek Ryun's real appearance is controversial. Normally, he is appears to be an ordinary boy, but he sometimes appears as a tall young man. Also, some say that they have seen Baek Ryun who was tall enough to touch the ceilings of the Tower.

Although Baek Ryun is a ranker who is praised for his influence instead of his battle abilities, it cannot be said that his battle power is lacking. Although Baek Ryun is a Wave Controller who controls the battle and supports team members over attacking others directly, his hand-to-hand combat ability is also said to be impressive. But, because he only fought a limited amount of battles with high rankers, his combat abilities may need to be verified.

The rumor about Wolhaiksong being an anti-government organization is false. The goal of Wolhaiksong is to 'find the way out of the tower'; it is not to overthrow the government. But it is true that their liberal movements often clash with the government's conservative practices. Some current Wolhaiksong members think of themselves as a part of an anti-government organization.

Ha Yurin
Rank: 10 Sobriquet: Snake Head Age: Unknown Height: 1 m 90 cm Birthplace: Unknown Position: Fisherman, Scout The leader of the Ha Family, one of the 10 Great Families. Grandmother of Ha Yuri Zahard (appearance-wise, Yurin doesn't look much older than Yuri)

Although she is a woman, she possesses a very aggressive and bold personality. Amongst the 10 Great Warriors, she would often be the first one to engage in combat.

She had two children (twins) with another great clan leader, Ari Han (TN: not Arie Hon), but they never married. Although she had many other relationships since, she never gave birth again. (This is not uncommon among the 10 Great Families. Compared to their extremely high ages, the amount of children they have is relatively small)

Because of this, the Ha family does not have many branch families, and the main branch of the family is centered on Yurin’s two sons. However, the two sons do not have a friendly relationship, and each claims that he is the rightful heir to the clan. Even within the Han family, there is a not-so-small quarrel about this matter. Of course, Yurin has no interest in such things, and lately, she’s has ceased all her other activities and is enjoying herself in her main house.

She possessed a very rough but intelligent fighting style, and she possessed a strong enough physique to perform the duties of both a fisherman and a scout. With grace and flexibility, she weaved through the battle field, and it is said she was the first to use Shinsu to strengthen one’s body.

After she became a clan leader, she has not participated in battle. Within the Ha clan, her presence as the head is more symbolic, and she rarely governs the clan herself.

With the birth of Yuri (who greatly resembles Yurin), the Ha clan placed their faith in her, hoping that she would collect all 13 months series weapons. Because of this, Yuri’s title takes after her grandmothers (Black Snake Head).

Tu Perie Tperie
Rank: 11

Sobriquet: God’s Eye Age: Unknown Height: 173 cm Birthplace: Unknown Position: Light Bearer One of the 10 Great Family’s Heads.

The first Light Bearer of the tower, no one knows how he came to be that position. Whenever he reminisces about the time he became a Light Bearer, he’s known to have said “The Heavens gave me the Eyes of God”. However, it could have been that people chose to believe a “well-fabricated story” rather than a “solid truth”.

After the Great Journey (TN: Jahad and the 10 conquering the tower), he is one of the most active Clan Heads, and along with the The Workshop, created many items. He is also the pioneer of the system in which the Light Bearer acts as the intermediary for all communications within a team.

The most famous of his creations is the ‘Opera’ Lighthouse, one of the greatest Lighthouses of the tower. The ‘Opera’ extends the user’s Shinsu field to infinity (beyond all reason and boundaries), making it the ultimate dream of all Light Bearers. It also contains defensive measures that put even Armor Inventories to shame. With all of its Lights, no blind spot exists for the ‘Opera’.

(TN: I wasn’t sure, but I think it’s implied that using the Opera, one can also have an infinite range for any shinsu related things, whether it’s a direct attack or shinsu restriction)

But because it requires the highest quality Suspendium and many impossible-to-find materials, only three were made, and it is unlikely that any more will be made.

Honestly, because a man who developed the system where ‘the Light Bearer acts as the center of all other Positions’ created an item that turns ‘the Light Bearer into a one-man-show’, many complain that while the ‘Opera’ Lighthouse is the ultimate evolution of the Lighthouse, it at the same time is an item that makes the basic purpose of the Light Bearer null.

Of course, these are the complaints of those who cannot comprehend the powers of those above.

(TN: If it wasn’t clear, it’s basically saying that the man who created the Light Bearer position also made an item that made the Light Bearer position basically unnecessary)

Of the three ‘Opera’s, one is in the hands of Tperi (However, he does not use the Opera, he uses a even greater Light House called ‘Eyes of God’, creator unknown), one is in the hands of Flux (one of the Three Lords; currently sleeping), the last is in the hands of Jaina Repellista Zahard (A princess that never climbed the Tower, uses the Opera to spy on the world).

If the ‘Opera’ ever appeared on the market, its price will be immeasurable, but looking at the current wielders, it’s unlikely that it’ll ever appear on the market.

Molic One P. GR
Rank: 12 Sobriquet: Molic One Age: Unknown Height: 7 m 39 cm (Normally about 2m) Birthplace: Unknown Position: All positions The eldest out of all Three Lords.

If Zahard is the symbolic ruler of the tower, Molic One is of course the actual and most powerful ruler. Even among the three lords he is the most powerful and his influence rivals that of a family head.

His name, Molic One derives from Molic, the area he lived in and Molic has the meaning of 'the absolute.'

As his name implies he was once the absolute ruler of the Molic area, but under Zahard's conciliation he became one of the three lords.

He is said to have been a powerful warrior not even Zahard could take lightly but because that was far in the past, there aren't many records left to prove this. He is said to have been skillful with his giant halberd and could fill in any position but it would be more correct to say he fought thoughtlessly, not bound by position.

After he became a lord Molic has been faithful to his duties and has turned into a very gentle and dignified(?) ruler. But the charisma he sometimes shows during the rulers' conference is said to be more than enough to overwhelm all the other rulers.

The three lords have the highest authority of power in the tower and take turns ruling every 1000 years.

Eurasia Blossom
Rank: 13 Sobriquet: Flower Shrimp Age: Unknown Height: 1 m 55 cm Birthplace: Unknown Position: Wave Controller The family head of the Eurasia Family.

Because she has the appearance of a young child and loves fancy clothing she was given the sobriquet Flower Shrimp.

Her skills at controlling shinsu are said to be the best even among the 10 great family heads. But while Po Bidau Gustang, another family head, was a pioneer of shinsu research, Blossom never showed much interest on the subject.

(However, Blossom's capability on the battlefield is said to be above that of Gustang's)

It is told that Gustang was jealous of Blossom's talents and his jealousy can often found in Gustang's many works. In one of Gustang's earlier works it is written, "Blossom is one of the top wave controllers but she won't be able to teach you a thing. She doesn't even know how she does it herself," a snide remark on Eurasia.

Because of this, in the tower, when a talented person feels jealous of someone even more talented it supposed to be 'like how Gustang sees Blossom.'(Later, this phrase comes to mean a man and woman with a bad relationship.)

If Gustang was a 'helper' wave controller that used shinsu to aid combat, Blossom was a 'offensive' wave controller, using shinsu to attack a target directly. Because the way she manipulates shinsu is wild and unpredictable, even other family heads are said to have fled when she started using shinsu.

Although her skills don't fall behind the other family heads, Blossom hasn't involved herself to the politics of the tower since the great journey and has never looked after her family the tower floors she ruled. Because of this she received a lot of criticism from the other family heads.

Interestingly enough, Blossom and Gustang were once lovers but broke up after the famous Eurasia Enne Zahard incident (Enne Zahard is the child of Blossom and Gustang, and Blossom is said to have been against Enne becoming a Zahard princess). Afterwards the Eurasia family and the Po Bidau Family forbid all marriages between the families and have been very hostile toward each other.

Also, the Eurasia main family is opposed to Zahard princesses getting chosen from their family(or it could mean Zahard princesses getting chosen in general, it's too vague).

P.S. Phonsekal Laure is from a branch of the Eurasia family. This family loves to sleep and is talented at controlling shinsu

Po Bidau Gustang
Rank: 14 Sobriquet: The Lonely Wave Age: Unknown Height: 1 m 83 cm Birthplace: Unknown Position: Wave Controller 1. Po Bidau Gustang is the Tower’s most famous Wave Controller and writer. Excluding the eccentrics within The Workshop, he probably knows the most about the Tower.

2. Along with the glasses he wears to better see the flow of Shinsu and an elegant brunette hair, he’s actually quite a handsome guy. However, because of his quiet, reserved expression, most find it hard to approach him, so he’s often the ‘target of affections’. Blossom once commented on Gustang’s good looks, “Yeah, he’s like an elegant, ancient book” “…the same kind that make you yawn after reading.”

3. After splitting with Blossom, acting contrary to his appearance, he started to walk around with different women. However, his greatest followers took his side and stated that he was acting up because the empty spot where Blossom once was too big. Of course, when he went from a ‘nice guy’ to a ‘bad guy’, his popularity increased even more. (This is all an old story…)

4. The males of Gustang’s clan work in a research group called the ‘Research Association’. If they do not make it as members, they are eventually kicked out of the clan. Because it is a very powerful and exclusive group, the members enjoy high reputation and fame, matched only by the ‘Chosen Children of Khun’.

5. Gustang and the The Workshop have a pretty close relationship. So much so that Macseth (The great father of The Workshop) and Gustang often get together to exchange stories. Because of this close relationship, there exists a rumor that says ‘Gustang knows the way out of the tower’. Hearing this rumor, Urek Mazino once visited Gustang to learn the way to leave the tower. However, he left after a while with a headache and complained to Baek Ryun, “It’ll be easier for me to dig my way out of the tower with a spoon, than to learn anything from that guy.”

6. Other than Shinsu and the Tower, Gustang was highly interested in researching the ‘Guide’ Position. However, the topic of the ‘Guide’ is a highly taboo topic within the ‘Research Association’. Perhaps it’s because of his pride as a researcher that he doesn’t want anyone else to take his research targets?

7. It’s widely known that Gustang was both Blossom’s greatest fan and hater. There are many stories floating around about the union of the two, however, most are fake. But it is a fact that a certain legal document exists in the possession of the sealed Princess, Eurasia Enne Zahard, that contains a secret about the two…

Grace Mirchea Luslec
Rank: 15 Sobriquet: Heretic (Tiger Fish) Age: Unknown Height: 1 m 97 cm Birthplace: 80F Mircea Position: Fisherman FUG (Slayer No.1) Grace Mirchea Luslec. The living 'god' of the most secretive and the most dangerous organization in the tower, FUG.

The objective of FUG is unclear, but it is a known fact that they hide in the darkest parts of the tower and corrupt people. Because of this, people call Luslec 'the god of devils' or 'the demon king.'

Luslec is said to have been one of the helpers that climbed the tower with the 10 great family heads, and it is unknown why that Luslec became corrupted enough to become the leader of FUG.

As you can tell from the rank, he is a superb warrior and the giant black hook he wielded is said to have pierced all.

FUG is sometimes compared with Wolhaiksong because of its opposition toward the 10 families. If FUG is a kind of 'religious order,' united under a single conviction, Wolhaiksong is a kind of 'social party' formed around a few select members. The two organizations have completely different natures, and some people are affiliated with both groups although FUG and Wolhaiksong do not get along.

The 10 Great Families forbid their children from entering FUG and consider it their supreme task to eradicate the members, who hide in the remote parts of the middle area.

But this doesn't mean that FUG's influence in the tower rivals the 10 families. As long as the family heads have formed pacts with the guardian and manage the tower, FUG's influence cannot surpass the power of the heads no matter how strong it gets.

In spite of this, Luslec's rank exceeds that of some family heads because he is the one and only symbol of 'absolute darkness' in the tower.

Hendo Lok Bloodmadder
(GoDai: The 록 part of his name may be "Rock" (instead of Lok) but I don't guarantee it.) Rank: 16 Sobriquet: Longevous Turtle (Long Life Sea Turtle) Age: ??? Height: 13m 27cm (1327cm; 1.327m) Birthplace: ??? Position: Defender (Special Position) As a reward for passing his test, the Administrator (Guardian) of 100th Floor gifts eternal life to Zahard and the 10 Great Family Heads. However, among them, only one was exempt, and he is the Family Head of the Hendo Lok Family, Bloodmadder. (The exact reason is unknown.)

Bloodmadder pleaded the Administrator to teach him how he can live eternally, and the Administrator gave him one condition.

"If you curse all of your children and their children with short lives You alone will be able to live eternally by receiving their lives."

Bloodmadder was agonized, but he could not defeat his fear of death.

Eventually, Bloodmadder pleaded the Administrator to grant him eternal life, and afterwards all those who carried Bloodmadder's blood came to have short lives. (Of course, in the Tower a short life is about 100 years. In a Ranker's case, it is a bit longer. However, Hendo's children can never live forever.)

Afterwards Bloodmadder had to have many children in order to extend his lifespan, and so Bloodmadder is the one with the most children out of the 10 Great Families. (Khun Eduan is the one with the most wives) Because the Administrator promised him that his life will be extended by the length of the sacrificed lives of his children, although no one knows the exact details of the contract, it seems definite that he needs to maintain as many children as long as his lifespan is.

Possibly due to this curse, the Hendo Lok family has the weakest power and influence among the 10 Families, and has the least number of Rankers. However, it is maintained and managed under iron-like strict disciplines, and Bloodmadder's position in the family is absolute. (All Rankers holding executive director positions in the Hendo Lok family are Blodmadder's adopted sons and daughters.)

On the other hand, the children who have received the Hendo Lok family's blood marry others by lying that they are not from the Hendo Lok family, and thanks to these "scam marriages," Bloodmadder's blood has spread to all regions of the Tower, and it is said that, in the Tower, a large effort is spent on trying to distinguish who has "Bloodmadder"'s blood.

Bloodmadder's sobriquet Longevous Turtle is a mockery of his obsession with eternal life, and is also closely related to his position.

He takes on a unique role known as a Defender, which is the role of protecting a Spear Bearer or a Light Bearer. The combination of Bloodmadder and Khun Eduan, the most powerful Spear Bearer in the Tower, was said to be extremely difficult to stop.

(Of course, Bloodmadder can take on every Position very well.)

Yeon Hana
(GoDai: In Korean, her name is written Yeon Hahn-Ah, not Hah-Nah, although they have the same pronunciation. While I'm on it, Kun Edan's name is written Kun Eh-Deu-Ahn, so it's something like Kun Ed'an or Kun Ed-an. This is also similar to Gustang, which is written Gu-seu-teu-ang, so in Korean it is pronounced something like Gust'ang or Gust-ang.) Rank: 17 Sobriquet: Cichlid Age: ??? Height: 1m 69cm (169cm) Birthplace: ??? Position: Fisherman, Wave Controller The Family Head is known to be the most beautiful among the 10 Family Heads. Although she is the Family Head of the Yeon Family, in fact there is not a single child in the Yeon Family who has received her blood. All children of the Yeon Family are the sons and daughters of "Yeon Ilarde (godmother)," who is an old fellow family member (권속, gwonsok; 眷屬) of Hana, and Yeon Hana herself is a virgin who has never embraced a man.

(GoDai: The term used here for "family member" has various meanings. It can mean "member of household" as in "Member of the Household of God" - Religious groups calling themselves family, even if not family by blood. Same with "the children/brood of darkness" and "fraternity/sorority" - This term can refer to literal family or people that consider each other to be family.)

Although she is sometimes suspected to be a misandrist (men-hater) due to this reason, she actually has a gentle personality (which is very rare among the 10 Family Heads) that treats both men and women kindly. According to a rumor, she could not forget a man whom she broke up with a long time ago, and so made a contract with the Administrator (Guardian) to become a "Female that cannot feel love towards the opposite sex."

(GoDai: Can she be a lesbian then?)

Although she has a gentle personality, according to the 10 Family Heads, she is "the most scary woman when angry." It is said that when angered once, she surpassed Ha Yurin, who was famous for having a terrible personality, but this is impossible to confirm in the current time in which the 10 Family Heads are not active in public.

Her fellow family member Ilarde gives birth to and raises her children in her stead, so the children of the Yeon Family all call her "godmother." Once every 5 years, Ilarde selects (선별, seonbyeol; "choose") a man to sleep with her, and it is said that Rankers from all over the Tower gather for a chance to become that man. Ilarde's eyes for choosing men are very "cold" so unless one is a decent male Ranker, it is difficult to even get past the paper document interview. Selected males live in the palace for 5 years, and only one of these men will receive the right to sleep with Ilarde, and if a child is born, they attain the glory of being accepted into the Family.

Like the Ha Family, the Yeon Family is a thoroughly matriarchal (mother-centered) family, so males cannot take central roles in either the main house or the branch house of the Family. Thanks to this, the females of the Yeon Family, especially those of the main house, have a tendency to look down on men.

(GoDai: Is it just me or does this article have more sexual terms than the entirety of the Tower of God series combined)
