| Overview |
Iron (아이언) was the shadow of Kim Chul.
Appearance
Iron takes after his appearance in life, wearing the same armor and wielding the same weapons. As a shadow, he also has a light purple glow. When he evolved to Elite Knight Grade, his axe became larger and gained a smoky quality to it.
Personality
Iron is a loose cannon and has a tendency to go overboard in battle, usually causing excessive destruction with his antics. He also takes pride in his kills and gets easily frustrated when his opponents prove to be immune to his Taunt skill. Although Jinwoo regards Iron as a dunce, he still keeps him around, as the latter always gets the job done well in battle.
History
During Jinwoo's fight with Baruka, a crazed Kim Chul attempted to kill Jinwoo only to be killed himself by Igris. Knowing that he would have a hard time defeating Baruka only with Igris' help, Jinwoo quickly extracted Kim Chul's shadow from his corpse and named him Iron. Now a loyal shadow to Jinwoo, Iron helped his master in his fight against Baruka and ultimately killed the ice elf by smashing him into the ground with his battle axe.[1]
Despite the fact that he was the second major shadow that Jinwoo ever extracted, Iron only played a minor role as the story progressed. However, he never lost his dim-witted attitude and he eventually ranked up to Elite Knight Grade shortly after the second Double Dungeon Incident.
Epilogue
Due to the revision of history caused by the Cup of Reincarnation, Iron was erased from his existence and his human self, Kim Chul, was reborn in the new timeline with no memory of his death in the previous timeline.
Ragnarok
While under the influence of the Itarim he was a priest of the foreign religion, he fought Suho as Kim Chul and died the same day which reverted him to Iron, where he remembered everything and has been pissed at the Itharim ever since he reverted to a shadow. His stats due to the change in master has been lowered compared to his time with Sung Jinwoo [2]
Abilities
As an Elite Knight Grade Shadow, Iron is on the level of a S-Rank Hunter. However, he is not as strong as Igris.
- Enhanced Strength: Iron was able to kill a giant with a single well-placed strike to its head. In addition, he was able to effortlessly drag the head of a lifeless Vulcan with one hand.
- Shout of Provocation: Iron is able to taunt his enemies, prompting them to attack him without thinking. It should be noted that this skill does not work against enemies who are stronger than him.
