"Ehren, Lightsworn Monk":

This monster's effect shuffles an opponent's monster into the Deck instead of destroying it by battle. This is a reference to how a monk undertakes a training rule to prevent them from killing.

Despite its feminine appearance, this monster's French and German TCG names feature masculine titles, "le Moine" and "Mönch". This is likely because these words have no feminine forms (which would hypothetically be "la Moine" and "Mönchin"). Other TCG languages derive fictitiously feminine forms for their respective words for "monk".

-*Despite this monster's feminine appearance, the French and German names are the only ones that give her masculine titles, "le Moine" and "Mönch". This is perhaps because this word has no feminine forms (which would hypothetically be "la Moine" and "Mönchin"), although the same cannot be said for the "[[Darklord]]" archetype, for which the French translators came up with the fictiously feminine title "l'Ange Déchue" (instead of "l'Ange Déchu") for its female members. Other ''TCG'' languages innovatively derive fictitiously feminine forms for their respective words for "Monk."
