Yunan

Yunan (ユナン, Yunan) is one of the four Magi in the current era. He is the guardian of The Great Rift. He is called the "Wandering Magi", as he raises Dungeons whenever he pleases. It is revealed that he is the one who raised the 1st Dungeon, Baal, 14 years before the start of the story.

Appearance
Despite having a rather feminine face, he appears to be a young man with a green Magician's hat on and wears green and white clothes although he is much older. He has light silver blonde hair and blue eyes. He seems to always have numerous birds flying and sitting around him (possibly a reference to his supposed free spirit nature). Like most Magi, he has a very long braid. In the past, his hair was much fuller and thicker.

Personality
Yunan is a kind and calm person that often smiles. It seems that he cries easily when scared, like when he was bullied by Partevians children.

It is stated that he has no affiliation with anyone and simply wanders around from place to place making Dungeons appear. He has a reputation for popping up at the most unexpected times.

History
When Sinbad was born, Yunan, Scheherazade, Matal Mogamett, and Gyokuen Ren sensed the strong resonation of rukh. Yunan comments on this being, interested that a human with such strength would be born. He says something like this only happens once every 1000 years and calls it a "miracle".

Fourteen years later, when he went to Partevia Empire, Sinbad rescued Yunan from local children that were bullying him. Yunan advised him to visit the "strange tower" which happened to be the first Dungeon (which he, himself summoned), Baal, stating it would give him the power he sought for. This started the great dungeon diving age.

At some point in the past, Yunan met Scheherazade. He told her about King Solomon, Alma Toran and the war that caused its destruction.

Introduction Arc
Yunan is first seen in the barrel which one of the girls Sinbad rescued earlier opens. He seems devastated and asks them to knock before opening. Then, he shuts himself again. He is surprised hearing the screams. Afterwards, he introduces himself as Yunan, a traveler. He thanks Sinbad for clearing their misunderstanding before it became serious and adds that he didn't know that sitting in a barrel isn't right without asking first, since it was such a narrow, dark and comfortable place. He recalls what happened earlier, that he was accused of being the thief. The two of them go back to Sinbad's village. Yunan asks if it's really okay to stay at his place, what Sinbad confirms.

As they reach the Tison Village, Yunan witnesses the interactions between Sinbad and the villagers. Later, the villagers ask who he is and is told that he has funny clothes. Sinbad explains this matter, what leads to Yunan being accepted by them. His hair is then pulled by little kids, whom Sinbad scolds. After bidding them a farewell, Yunan comments that Sinbad is deeply trusted there. Sinbad replies that they had some differences, but it's alright now. Sinbad then notices the look on Yunan's face and asks what is it, but he answers that it's nothing.

Second Sindria Arc
Before Yunan made an actual appearance, he is only talked about by Judar and Sinbad.

World Exploration Arc
After entering the Great Rift, Morgiana finds a wooden house inside there, which precedes the Dark Continent. Yunan seems surprised when he opens its door and sees Morgiana outside. He says she did a good job reaching here; and calls Morgiana by her name. He invites her in and serves her tea, he is worried if the tea tastes bad, he says it has been a long while since he last had a guest, and he forgot how to make tea. Yunan introduces himself as the Guardian of the valley. When asked by Morgiana why he knew her name, he says he heard it from here, he can hear everything in the valley, as well as what happens on both sides of the Rift. He also tells her that there are Fanalis on the other side of the Rift and he can take her to them, but she might not want to return because the Emperor of the Kou Empire has died and a war will soon happen.

Abilities
His type of magic and fighting style is not known. As a Magi, however, he has near limitless Rukh/Magoi and knows how to use Borg. In addition, he can raise Dungeons.

Magic
Borg
 * This is said to be the proof of a Magician. It is a defensive ability. It blocks out attacks with evil intentions. It also blocks out all physical attacks and magical attacks to some degree. It's strength, however, depends on the person.

Wand
His wand looks similiar to a fishing rod. It is a long rod with wires running along it forming loops at intervals, it has a white feather at the top and is pointed like a spear at the bottom.

Morgiana
Yunan  treats Morgiana with care and warm hospitality. However, he hints that something bad may happen to her in the future.

Sinbad
A young Sinbad met Yunan 14 years prior to the beginning of the story. Yunan being bullied by the local children of Sinbad's village and Sinbad rescued him. He shared his food and even told Yunan of his anger of how he feels the country would never change no matter what happens. It is then Yunan advises Sinbad to go to the "mysterious tower" (which happened to be the first dungeon Baal) and said he will find the power he seeks there and starts to fade away. Before vanishing, Sinbad asked Yunan who he really was and all Yunan stated was "I'm simply a wandering traveler".

Toran People
Yunan often shares tea with them.

Trivia
