Lord McCoy

Lord McCoy (ドン. マッコイ　Don Makkoi) is the regional lord of the town of Bilibin and its surrounding areas in the heart of Angara. An obstinate man with a heavy Scottish accent, he is a caring man at heart. He lives in Bilibin's palace with his haughty wife Lady McCoy and constantly balances the needs of his people against pleasing her. He commissions her personal palace to be built from lumber from Kolima Forest, but this angers a tree spirit named Tret into putting a curse on everyone at the nearby village of lumberjacks named Kolima. With everyone in a panic, McCoy immediately halts construction. His concern is great enough that even when the group of young warriors led by Isaac agree to help out by battling the source of the curse early on in Golden Sun, McCoy, fearing for their safety, disallows them from crossing the barricade he had set up between Bilibin and Kolima. If Isaac returns to Bilibin after completing the Kolima Forest dungeon, Lord McCoy will acknowledge their achievement and offer the party one of four rewards.

Trivia

 * Lord McCoy appears to be the only character encountered within the series to have a surname, whereas all other characters shown are given only first names. Granted, simply because McCoy is used with the prefix of "Lord" does not mean that this is in fact his last name, similar to how Lord Babi was known simply as "Babi" before he became a Lord. What is strange however, is that his wife would take his first name when they were married ("McCoy" being a strange first name to begin with).
 * He is also unique in the fact that he is depicted having a stereotypical real-world Scottish accent, although he is not unique in having an accent, as the people of Xian also speak with unusual mannerisms. Also, the fact that his accent is Scottish is entirely trivial, as the Japanese version simply has him speaking in a crude and unrefined manner (similar to Garet).
