Hon Akraptor, a Regular in the Tower, emerges as a contentious figure shaped by a turbulent past. After marrying into one of the 10 Great Families and fathering a daughter, both were forcibly severed from him by her kin, spurring his ascent to reclaim the power needed to shield loved ones. He wields a black-and-white lance that transforms into an umbrella-like shield, channeling Shinsu for offense and defense. Initially provoking distrust through abrasive tactics—like manipulating teammates during tests—he evolves into Team Tangsooyook’s steadying force, mediating conflicts and counseling allies. His protective instincts crystallize around Miseng, whom he shields from threats like Yeongsuk, assuming a paternal role. In the Workshop Battle, he aids Wangnan’s strategies and confronts adversaries such as Team Mad Dog, balancing loyalty to Khun Aguero Agnis’s plans with perilous risks, including temporary incapacitation by Khun’s maneuvers. His pragmatic alliance with Jyu Viole Grace shifts from wary caution to collaboration, though his emotional appeal to reunite with his daughter later proves a half-serious ploy to sway Viole. Cynicism gradually yields to collective responsibility: he suppresses personal grievances to fortify team cohesion, partnering with figures like Horyang to navigate the Tower’s trials. His arc traces a transformation from self-serving cunning to strategic unity, anchored by resilience amid relentless adversity.
