In Solo Leveling, the Monarchs are nine of the most powerful entities of destruction in the universe, opposed to the Rulers (the Fragments of Brilliant Light) in a millenary cosmic war. For an overview of this mythology, see the complete guide to the Rulers and Monarchs.

Who is Rakan?
Rakan is the Monarch of Fangs, one of the nine Monarchs of Solo Leveling. His name evokes animal savagery: he embodies predation, biting, and the brute force of fierce beasts.
A ruthless warrior Monarch, Rakan is among the forces that once faced the Shadow Monarch during the great clashes of the past.
A Monarch of pure ferocity
The domain of fangs makes Rakan an offensive fighter, built for melee combat and tracking. He represents the most instinctive and brutal facet of the Monarchs' camp.
Rakan against the Rulers and Ashborn
In the long war against the Rulers, Rakan sides with the other Monarchs. His history crosses paths with Ashborn, the Shadow Monarch, whose legacy now rests with Sung Jin-Woo.
The origins of the Monarchs
To understand Rakan, one must grasp the nature of the Monarchs: primordial entities devoted to destruction, engaged in an endless cosmic war against the Rulers, guardians of humanity. Rakan's ferocity makes him one of the sharpest blades of this camp.
The Monarchs, gates, and Sung Jin-Woo
This war spills over onto Earth: the appearance of rifts signals the Monarchs' offensive. Faced with this peril, the fate of humanity rests on the successor to the Shadow Monarch. Discover how gates and dungeons work, the System that enables leveling up, and the journey of Sung Jin-Woo, the heir of the Shadow Monarch.
