“	One of the Irregulars who entered the Tower with Zahard. He later became one of the ten leaders, ruling and giving birth to numerous sons. He himself is also the greatest Spear Bearer on the Tower, and even in terms of melee combat abilities, he is known to be the strongest among the ten leaders along with the leader from the Arie and Ha family. He truly is the 'God of Spears'.	”
—Sachi Faker describing Khun Eduan^[4]

Khun Eduan (쿤 에드안, Khun Edeuahn, Kun Edan) is a High Ranker, currently in the 6th ranking. He is the head of the Khun Family, one of the 10 Great Families, and also the father of numerous children from the Khun Family, such as Khun Aguero Agnis.

Sobriquet[]

His sobriquet Marlin (청새치, cheongsaechi; literally "Blue swordfish", in English "marlin") was given due to his enormous spear called Mago, which if decompressed, it's said it could pierce half of the Tower.^[1]

His other sobriquet is Blue Thunderclap (푸른 진격震擊, pureun jingyeok; literally "Blue Thunder/Quake Strike" or "Blue Lightning Strike") because of the property of the shinsu he controls; the shinsu he controls is very fast and has tremendous electrical power.^[1] There were a lot of opinions that his sobriquet should be the Electric Eel because of this property, but Khun Eduan directly showed refusal, threatening he would "kill everyone who called him an eel".^[1]

Appearance and Personality[]

While his current appearance may be a little bit inaccurate due to seeing him as a data of himself on the Hidden Floor and not his current self, we can still get a pretty good idea of how he looks like in the present. Eduan, being the head of the Khun Family, is the one and only source of the typical traits that the family has, such as having blue hair and eyes and having pale skin. He has long hair and his eyes sometimes vary in color while still being in a blue shade, at intervals they can have a light-blue color and at other times they can a purplish color. Eduan is known for his magnanimous personality and taking delight in fighting.^[1] He is also extremely proud and self-confident but is also honorable. He is shown to be apathetic towards his children, as he shows little interest in their contest and is despised yet also feared by one of his sons Khun Aguero Agnis. Hidden Grove went as far as to say that Eduan didn't care that they murdered his child as long as he had women and booze. One of his sons who was a member of the Hidden Groove even stated that Eduan was the worst father a child could want.

About[]

Khun Eduan is famous for his lewdness and he is the man with the most wives among the 10 Family Heads.^[1] He has a lot of children, so many so that they number in at least the thousands^[5], and as such there is a lot of veiled competition among his children in the family; too much competition has created the 'official' fights.^[1] It is held once a year, with the following rule: 'When the children of Khun reach the age of 10, they are to fight each other. The winners are recognised 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'.^[1] Although the fights are inhumane and bloody, Eduan himself says he's "not very interested".^[1]

Notes and Trivia[]

One of his daughters, Khun 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.^[1]
Khun Eduan had prepared a special test with a shocking condition, which is 'Whoever fights him and wins is given everything from the family', but none of the Regulars has survived the test so far.^[1]
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 highest-ranking items in the Tower, as he values his collections very highly. This is evidenced by the shock the administrators have on the Floor of Test after Yu Han Sung explains Khun Aguero Agnis had plundered his father's "treasure house" before coming to the Tower, taking such amazing items as Manbarondenna "the entertaining and amazing magical cloning bag" and a high-grade suspendium pulley. ^[6]
He is friendly with Arie Hon despite their families are rivals, but is a bit jealous of him for being ranked higher.^[7]
Rak Wraithraiser calls the Data Khun Eduan left in Hidden Floor "Electro Turtle".
Zahard has noted that he and Eduan do not get along well when he expresses surprise that Eduan and his own data selves would work together, implying while apparently tolerating him, he does not like him.
Among the Greek Gods Dionysus was the inspiration for Khun Eduan. So, among the 10 Family Heads, he is the one in charge of dissipation, hedonism, womanizing etc.^[8]
He likes grapes.
