Role: brave man · First appears: Tale 75

In Tale 75, in the old times, the head man of Abra invited Biwag and Malona, two brave men from Cagayan, to help kill the snakes. At the gap of the Abra River, the flying snakes attacked them; the men fought with a banana-tree trunk, and the snakes’ wings stuck to it, so Biwag and Malona killed them.
