Gdon is also known as Dawon from Hindu mythology, which in turn carried over the myth of Dawon from Tibetan legends. In Hinduism, Dawon the lion/tiger is the mount of the Hindu goddess Durga, being an offering to the goddess, who aided her when Nirvana ever needed protection. When in battle, Dawon used her claws and teeth to rend any foes that were underfoot asunder. It carried Durga to victory over the buffalo demon Mahishasur. Durga and Dawon are worshiped in a more peaceful environment instead of their usual violent festivals, were Durga is called the Fair Lady and Dawon is known as the pure white tigress. Most legends about Dawon show her as a violent tigress, tearing her foes apart.
Dawon can only be acquired through fusion. He can be encountered as a regular enemy within Ichigaya's Kagurazaka Zhu Que Caverns and within Suginami's Diaspora instance.

"The tiger mount of the goddess Durga, of Hindu mythology. Durga was born to defeat the Asura Mahisha, and Gdon was granted to her to help complete the task."
When the party reaches the test tube chamber where Sera was contained moments earlier, a boss battle initiates with Agni and two Gdons. After the battle, they become random encounters later in the dungeon.
During the battle, they help bolster Agni's defenses and attack. One will cast Ice Drain once per turn and both will only use standard attacks. However, they will counterattack physical attacks. With their main weakness blocked by the Ice Drain spell, an Electricity skill can be used to shock them, leaving them open for criticals.
