Khun Eduan

Koon Eduan (쿤 에드안, Koon Edeuahn, Kun Edan, "Koon Eduan") is a High Ranker, currently in the 6th Ranking, just above Eurasia Enne Zahard. He is the head of the Koon Family, one of the 10 Great Families, and also the father of Koon Aguero Agnis and other Koon children. He is extremely proud and self-confident, but is also honourable. Before Enryu appeared, he was the strongest Spear Bearer in history.

The Origin of his Sobriquet
The name Marlin (청새치, cheongsaechi; literally "Blue swordfish", in English "marlin") was given by likening his enormous spear and there's a rumour that if he decompresses his spear it would pierce half of the Tower but it does not happen to be the case as its rank changes abnormally. (Note: The name of his spear is Mago. When Mago is ignited its compression rank increases to an abnormally high figure.)

His other sobriquet is Blue Thunderclap (푸른 진격, pureun jingyeok, 震擊, zhèn jī; literally "Blue Thunder/Quake Strike" or "Blue Lightning Strike") is from the property of the Shinsoo he controls. The Shinsoo 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 Koon Eduan directly showed refusal, threatening he would "kill everyone who called him an eel".

Koon Family Tradition
Koon 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 is 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 Koon become the age of 10, they are to fight each other. The winners are recognized as the true children and are allowed to wear the crest of the family, but the losers become the 'abandoned' and do not get the crest. Although the fights are inhuman and bloody, Eduan himself says he's 'not very interested'.

Notes and Trivia

 * One of his daughters, Koon Maschenny Zahard, is the owner of the Yellow May and is the only Princess in the family who has been awarded one of the 13 Month Series.
 * It has been stated that Maschenny is Eduan's favourite daughter and child.
 * Koon Eduan had prepared a special test with a shocking condition, which is 'Whoever fights him and wins is given everything of the family', but none of the Regulars have survived the test so far.
 * He is remarked to wish to fight Urek Mazino, as he was the man who pushed him out of the Top 5 Rankers.
 * His Sobriquet can be translated into "Blue Advance".
 * He is famed as a collector of a multitude of the greatest/highest ranking of items in the Tower in several different categories of items and values his collections very highly. This is evidenced by the shock the administrators have on the Floor of Test after Yu Han Sung explains Koon Aguero Agnis had plundered his father's "treasure hoard" before coming to the Tower, taking such amazing items as manbarondenna "the entertaining and amazing magical cloning bag" and a high grade suspendium pulley. The administrators even go on to fantasize about the contents of his collection as a group (Administrators - "But Koon's treasure room! What do you think is in it? An A-grade Pocket?!?! An A-grade spear?!?! A-grade Aegnis?!?! AAA!!") Also, Lero-Ro's embarrassment at his partial music player collection speaks to this.
 * He is friendly with Arie Hon despite their families are rivals, but resents him a bit for being ranked higher.
