Kōryū studied Hokuto Shin Ken with Ryūken his old rival, but yielded the succession despite having the stronger style to avoid having the tragic fate of death shared by multiple Hokuto Shin Ken martial artists. He is also known as the "Hokuto Dragon." To prevent any knowledge regarding his martial art to be passed on, Kōryū led an ascetic life in the mountains, but was later sought out and killed by Raoh. He had two sons named Zeus and Aus who were spared by Raoh who told not to seek the same tragic path as Raoh and Toki.
