Maharathi Karna

Karna was sired by Suryadev and Kunti due to a boon granted to her by Sage Durvasu. Unable to face the world, as she was not married, she abandons the baby, and has it set afloat in the holy river Ganga. Karna does not perish, but is rescued and adopted by a charioteer and his wife. He shows his true form when he decides to become a warrior, and acquires necessary skills with the assistance of Suryadev and Sage Parshuram. His friendship with Rajkumar Dhuryodhan will be put to the test during the Kurukshetra when Kunti will approach him to join forces with her sons, the Pandavas, against the hordes of Dhuryodhan & the Kauravas.
