**Kaolan Wongsawat** (ガオラン・ウォンサワット, *Gaoran Wonsawatto*?) also known as **The Thai God of War** (タイの闘(とう)神(しん), *Tai no Tōshin*?), is a main character in the fan-made series **Universal Warriors**.

Kaolan is a renowned boxer and current heavyweight champion across four different organizations, as well as the personal bodyguard of **Rama XIII**. A nak muay who made the move into the professional boxing scene, Kaolan has made it as the second best Pound-for-pound boxer in history. During the **Kengan Annihilation Tournament**, he participated as the affiliated fighter for **Yato Trading Co**. Two years later, he entered the Kengan Association VS Purgatory Tournament as a representative for the Kengan Association.

## Personality

Kaolan is perpetually calm to the point of being expressionless. However, this bellies an incredibly analytical mind that allows him to notice details other fighters would miss.

His most obvious motivation is, in truth, derived from his extreme patriotism to Thailand and loyalty to his ruler, Rama XIII. In fact, Kaolan would have not taken part in the Annihilation Tournament at all without Rama XIII's command, disparaging the tournament for being a mere freak show in comparison to the purity of conflict in something like boxing. Despite this, he came to greatly respect Suekichi Kaneda's determination and willpower during their fight, calling him a true warrior.

Contrary to the prior, however, Kaolan has one arguably self-centred desire: the desire to fight a truly powerful foe to the death (as long as the foe isn't Saw Paing).

## Character Design

Kaolan is a highly-built man of Thai descent with long straight black hair tied into a ponytail that hangs over his left shoulder, thin discerning eyes, and a small circlet around his crown. Despite being a heavyweight boxer, Kaolan possesses a smaller frame compared to most of his contemporaries.

His attire in the underground matches consist of a pair of boxing shorts, emblazoned with the image of a Garuda, a South-East Asian symbol of justice, royalty and the Dhamma. As he makes his entrances, he is also seen wearing a traditional boxer's robes, his musculature still visible.

## Abilities and Equipment

Kaolan is an extremely powerful fighter with boxing as his base martial art, having an out-fighting style with extremely fast flicker jabs as his speciality. Kaolan's physical abilities are top-notch, being able to throw heavy ad-hoc punches from any position, even unstable ones; Kaolan's punches alone can knockout the majority of opponents. Like Kaneda Suekichi, Kaolan is also capable of predicting his opponent's movements, though this seems limited to opponents that utilize a boxing style.

When fighting normally, he only uses his boxing abilities in the "Hitman" or the "Flicker" style, as this is usually enough to dominate his opponent; his boxing skills are arguably the best in the world, proven in his fight with Agito Kanoh when he dominated the latter while both were using boxing, despite Kaolan having a height and reach disadvantage. However, when fighting to the best his abilities he skillfully combines boxing with muay Thai.

Having trained in muay Thai for over 20 years and mastered boxing, Kaolan is essentially a striking specialist; it would not be an overstatement to call Kaolan the "acme of striking". His combination of boxing and muay Thai is so powerful that he is capable of forcing a fighter of Kanoh Agito's level on the defensive without giving him a chance to counter.

After the Annihilation Tournament, Kaolan underwent partial training after his right fist healed. By doing different forms of partial training his fist became hard enough to break through rocks, and was undamaged by a kick from Carlos Medel. Kaolan himself noted that he was inspired by Saw Paing's indestructible bones.

### Powers and Abilities

#### Technique

* **Flash** (フラッシュ, "Furasshu"): Kaolan's signature boxing move. The **Flash** is a barrage of quick, sharp flicker jabs, a jab performed with no torque with the arm resting downwards or at a 90° from the waist. Even while being weighed down by a 10oz glove, he is able to fire off 13 of these flicker jabs in a single breath, with the number of blows he can let off increasing to at least 15 when barehanded.

Because of the speed and volume of his punches, it is extremely hard to dodge or counter, even for professional boxing champions or people who can predict his attacks (such as Suekichi Kaneda). With this move, despite the flicker jabs' innate loss of power over regular jabs, it is still able to induce a nosebleed in Suekichi Kaneda even when all blows were blocked and has knocked-out lesser fighters.
* **God Glow** (神の御光(ゴッドグロー), "Kami no O-Hikari"): The **God Glow** is a powerful dominant cross (also known as a straight) able to "surpass light and become the fist of a god". It is the result of partial training to his right fist for one year after Agito Kanoh shattered it. This move is so powerful not even a fast fighter such as Carlos Medel can dodge it.

## Story

### Original

Kaolan started his fighting career as a nak muay 20 years ago when the King of Thailand, Rama XII, noticed his talents, soon earning the name "Thai God of War" after becoming the greatest Nak muay. At the age of 15, Kaolan joined the annual cross-border match between Myanmar and Thailand. There, he encountered Yoroizuka Saw Paing for the first time and defeated him by judge's decision in their fight. Since then, Saw Paing proceeded to constantly challenge him to a rematch, even crossing the border to do so.

One day, Kaolan began to question muay Thai's weakness: it largely dismissed the use of fists to attack. Because he was the King's bodyguard, it would be disadvantageous for him to fight opponents who used other kinds of combat, so Kaolan took up boxing, incidentally right after Carlos Medel's retirement, and trained in it to overcome muay Thai's weakness. After doing so, he became the heavyweight champion of all four major boxing organisations in just four years.

At some point before a title fight, while escorting Rama XIII, Kaolan effortlessly defeated Kaz Fujita.
