Kuhn (.hack)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Kuhn, The Propagation (Magus)
Kuhn(クーン) is arguably the most popular character throughout the Roots and G.U. series ( Besides Haseo ). Although Kuhn assists CC Corp through the Raven ( G.U. ) guild, he has no real connection with CC Corp. Kuhn is a normal player who was chosen to be an Epitaph User, much like Haseo, and was dragged in to the mess by Yata and Pi. Kuhn describes himself as more similar to Haseo than anyone else. Kuhn is light-hearted and brings laughter to the game players but still has an air of responsibility, especially towards Haseo's control of Skeith.
[edit] Biography
Kuhn is a Steam Gunner that is slow but has arguably the best fighting style in the game. His powerful long range attacks make him a perfect back-up to Haseo. In the game, Kuhn is first introduced when Haseo and Atoli are teleported by Tri-Edge's Sign. They were teleported to a Lost Ground and see Endrance playing around with AIDA in his hands. After noticing the presence of Haseo and Atoli, Endrance scurries away and an AIDA infects part of the area, targeting Atoli. To this, Kuhn makes his entrance and saves Atoli from being infected. Kuhn transforms into Magus to defeat the AIDA and invites Haseo to be part of G.U. when he realized that Haseo saw everything that had happened. Kuhn would later introduce Haseo to G.U. after they get back.
Although Haseo's attitude towards Kuhn is very hostile, Kuhn is nice and light-hearted (as usual) towards Haseo. He takes responsibility towards important issues like AIDA, and is friendly towards everyone he meets. He has but one weakness... Kuhn cannot help himself but to have a lady in his arm in The World. He even mistakes a PC as a grown woman when she is only a grade schooler. Of course, Pi does not really tolerate his actions, and he tries to hide it as best as possible lest he incur Pi's wrath.
This weakness of Kuhn's is first shown to Haseo in the Central area of Mac Anu. Haseo was vending (much to his chagrin) until Kuhn came back from his "appointment." Kuhn was walking with two other female PCs and while talking to them using poetic talk, he slows down and notices Haseo with embarrassment. Haseo then rants about how Kuhn ditched the lessons of Avatar for girls. Kuhn is then embarrassed and runs away saying that he will email everyone later. Although he may seem like a fool at times, Kuhn is possibly the strongest G.U. member shown in-game. Kuhn's Avatar has the power to propagate data and escapes Berserk Skeith's Data Drain by this special skill. However, Kuhn made Haseo realize that Avatar use was dangerous and risky by putting himself in the risk of becoming comatose when he attempted to stop Skeith's rampage. Haseo saw that the Avatar could go out of control and do the same thing Tri-Edge did to Shino to others.
Despite Kuhn's weakness of female PCs, Kuhn can be described as wise and sacrificing. However, getting further affectionate with Kuhn may tell some unexpected things. Although Kuhn is a chick magnet online, Kuhn actually works at an arcade (though he has had many odd jobs in the past, including working at stores and fast food places) and is currently single.
