Iwan (イワン Iwan) is the God of Destruction of Universe 1. He is accompanied by his attendant and martial arts teacher Awamo.

Appearance[]

Iwan is a short anthropomorphic being with pointy pink ears. His whole face, except for his small, black pupil eyes, is covered in black fur. Similar to Sidra, he wears a white shirt and a God of Destruction vest, along with a small hat. His true form under fur is described as "resembling Shiva in Hinduism" in the Japanese official website.

Personality[]

Iwan is a very efficient and successful God of Destruction as his work has led to his universe having the highest mortal level. Iwan has strong passion, enthusiasm, or explosive feelings in contrast to his calm appearance. He is the only one of spared Gods of Destruction to not break out into a cold sweat when Universe 9 was erased by the Zenos.

Biography[]

But when Beerus hid and fell asleep for fifty years during the tournament, it had to be cancelled. He and the gods had to calm Zeno down who was furious. Since then, Iwan and the other Gods of Destruction have felt disdain towards Beerus.[1]

He later has a look of relief when the Grand Minister announced his universe as one of the twelve that does not participate in the life-and-death Tournament of Power. Afterwards, he returned to his universe to continue to maintain his duties as a God of Destruction.

He is able to fight evenly with both of them but their battle causes a crater in the arena's center and a tower to fall over and is ordered, along with Arak and Liquiir by the Great Priest, to repair the stage afterwards. The three of them repair the arena before fighters from the eight universes show up.

He previously assumed Goku's transformation was a temporary matter, although Anato speculates that Goku has truly achieved the form this time, with Iwan calling Goku's third transformation incredible. Later, he stands up with his fellow Destroyers to recognize Goku attaining the complete Autonomous Ultra Instinct form.
