| − | === TenSoon's trial === |
||
| − | KanPaar was the primary speaker during the trial of [[TenSoon]].{{book ref|mb3|9}} He accused TenSoon of killing a fellow kandra, but TenSoon said he was only following his Contract, obeying his master [[Zane]]. Then, KanPaar accused him of having broken his contract, disobeying his master. TenSoon replied that he was following the First Contract by obeying [[Vin]], whom he said was the Lord Ruler's heir. He said he revealed to Vin the secret of controlling the kandra, because she deserved to know it.{{book ref|mb3|11}} |
||
| − | |||
| − | === The Coup of the Second Generation === |
||
| − | When [[Sazed]] came to the [[Kandra Homeland]], proposing to compare the things he'd discovered about the Terris religion to the knowledge of the kandra to discover what [[Ruin]] had changed, KanPaar refused him. However, the members of the First Generation dismissed the kandra, wanting to speak with Sazed.{{book ref|mb3|68}} Soon after, KanPaar and the rest of the Second Generation lead a coup against the First Generation, imprisoning them and taking control.{{book ref|mb3|79}} |
||
| − | |||
| − | KanPaar then discovered the [[atium]] cache in the Trustwarren, and made plans to sell some of it, revealing the cache's location to [[Ruin]] in the process. KanPaar refused to follow the [[Resolution]], instead leaving the Homeland to sell some of the atium.{{book ref|mb3|79}} However, Ruin took control of KanPaar, and [[Marsh]] took the atium, which he later used to extend his life via [[Compounding]].{{book ref|mb3|79}}{{wob ref|5264}} |

||
| − | === TenSoon === |
||
| − | KanPaar sees TenSoon's crimes as an opportunity to prove that the Third Generation is untrustworthy, with TenSoon's reputation of being the most temperate among the Thirds.{{book ref|mb3|9}} He thinks TenSoon is a criminal and disagrees with him on whether killing another kandra violates the First Contract.{{book ref|mb3|11}} |
||
| + | He is the primary speaker during the trial of the kandra [[TenSoon]].{{book ref|mb3|9}} Soon after [[Sazed]]'s arrival in the [[Kandra Homeland]], KanPaar and the rest of the Second Generation lead a coup against the First Generation, imprisoning them and taking control. Later, KanPaar refuses to follow the [[Resolution]] and leaves the Homeland to sell some atium. He is taken over by [[Ruin]], thereby revealing the location of the [[atium]] cache.{{book ref|thoa|79}} Marsh took the atium from KanPaar and uses it to live a very long time.{{wob ref|5264}} |
||
| − | === Sazed === |
||
| − | KanPaar believes that Sazed can't really be the Announcer, because he believes the world isn't ending. He thinks Sazed blasphemes by claiming to be the Announcer. Sazed thinks that KanPaar and the other Seconds are typical aristocrats, easy to identify in any society.{{book ref|mb3|68}} |
