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 disallows them from crossing the barricade he had set up between Bilibin and Kolima.

Trivia

 * Lord McCoy appears to be the only character encountered within the series to (possibly) have a surname (whereas all other characters shown are given only first names). Granted, simply because it is used in his title of "Lord", this does not make certain that this is in fact his last name, similar to Lord Babi.
 * However, he is also unique in the fact that he has a real-world Scottish accent, meaning that the majority of the populace in the Golden Sun universe could speak the real-world language of English (or originally, Japanese). This fact is trivial in all respect, and highly arguable due to the fact that the game has been translated from Japanese and the Japanese version uses a very crude unrefined manner of speech (similar to Garet).
