—KanPaar to TenSoon.[1]
Early History[edit]
As a member of the Second Generation, KanPaar was created by the First Generation through Hemalurgic spikes provided by the Lord Ruler.[3][5] KanPaar has spent centuries trying to prove that the kandra of the Third Generation are untrustworthy.

He said he revealed to Vin the secret of controlling the kandra, because she deserved to know it.[1]
The Coup of the Second Generation[edit]
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.[2] Soon after, KanPaar and the rest of the Second Generation lead a coup against the First Generation, imprisoning them and taking control.[4]
