OOC

Timezone/Tag availability: I'm on Eastern Time (UST-400). On weekdays, I tend to get a round of tags out early in the morning and then pick at them throughout my work day and am rarely seen past 10 PM ET. For the duration of TLP, I'm committed to being around for trials as a mod.
Formatting preference: I prefer smalltext brackets and present tense, but I'll happily match styles.
Sensitive topics: Please warn me for cannibalism... or incest...
Backtagging: Absolutely.
Threadhopping/threadjacking: Yes, pretty much always, as long as it makes sense!
Fourthwalling: No thanks! Knowing stories similar to My S-Class Hunters/The S-Ranks I Raised/however you want to translate it is fine, but not treating Yoojin or his experiences as fiction in IC interactions.

IC

Affection: All non-romantic touch, be it affectionate, annoyed, or neutral, is A-okay by me. For romantic or sexual overtures, let's be in touch about it and also see what develops naturally.

Violence: Please contact me first! Yoojin has a more or less normal human constitution and may not be able to withstand your character's attack, however deserved it may be.

SUPERNATURAL ABILITIES: OKAY ACTUALLY PLEASE DO PAY ATTENTION TO THIS ONE!

In his world, Yoojin has the title "Custodian", which allows him to grant those in his "custody" a handful of associated buffs, particularly to their growth rate (like a boost in EXP earned). These buffs will be significantly reduced in the Locked Place. The important thing is that getting someone in his custody will cause them to associate him with a caretaker they've had, for good or for ill.

This is something he has to actively choose to do; the skill doesn't turn on by itself or just by being around him. To get someone in his custody, he has to tell them "I love you" or otherwise communicate that sentiment, AND characters can easily not respond to or accept it. I also won't be doing it willy-nilly! This is something you can OPT INTO if you want.

So if you do want to play with that, please fill out the following little textarea! Comments to this post are screened.

Other supernatural notes: Not likely to come up, but if your character is magically sensitive and gets real close to Yoojin's chest, they might feel a trace of magical energy that does NOT seem to be Yoojin's coming from his heart area.

Relationships: If they happen naturally. Yoojin prioritizes survival and general care for others over thoughts of romance. I play him with no particular gender preference and interest only in adults ages 20 and above.

IC triggers: Things that may come up in Yoojin's past: abuses of power, abusive or neglectful guardians, valuing lives based on ability/usefulness, kidnapping, and exploitative labor practices.
Things that may trigger Yoojin: He can't easily control his temper when it comes to abusive guardians, particularly when it comes to kids.

"It's like seeing a kitten licking a full-grown lion to groom it."

Yoojin's a man with F-rank stats, but an S-rank heart. He doesn't afraid of anything and he IS your mother now. Get loved on, nerds.

+ history

Background: The place: Earth. The time: our contemporary era; let's call it 2018. A few years ago, strange portals opened all over the planet, sowing worry and confusion. Those concerns became deadly real when monsters came rushing out those doors into a terrified and unprepared society. At the same time, some humans awoke to supernatural strength and magical abilities apparently managed by some video game-like "system." Not only did they become powerful enough to combat the monsters pouring into their homes, these Awakened humans even took the fight to them, traveling through the portals to the fantasy-like pocket dimensions where the monsters spawn. They discovered that routinely clearing these spaces of monsters, particularly the strongest "boss" monster of each area, would prevent the monster population from spilling over into the human world.

Given how similar these mechanics were to those of popular RPGs, humanity quickly repurposed gaming terms for their new reality. The monsters' homes became known as dungeons, concepts like stat windows and skill ranks rose in public consciousness, and the Awakened formed guilds of Hunters. Their job? Raid dungeons, kill monsters, and bring back materials found nowhere on Earth. Soon enough, being a combat-class Hunter was the most coveted, lucrative career in the world.

At least, if you awakened with suitably high-ranked stats and skills. A-, B-, and S-ranked Hunters could take on the world... but what about everyone else?

Personal History: Years before the first dungeon break, Han Yoojin was an average guy completely devoted to raising his younger brother, Yoohyun. The day monsters poured into Seoul, seventeen-year-old Yoohyun awoke as a natural-born S-ranker, instantly making him one of the most powerful beings on Earth--an object of hero worship and fear all at once. Almost overnight, Yoohyun cut ties with his normie big brother, who eventually awakened as a piddling F-ranker, barely any stronger than an unawakened human.

Bewildered by his brother's rejection and jaded by the subsequent eight years of being treated like crap by a society prizing dungeon-diving ability above all else, Yoojin grew resentful and jaded. As an F-rank Hunter with no combat skills whatsoever, the only jobs he could get were exploitative mining gigs. Low-rankers like him died left and right, higher-ranked combat Hunters took over 80-90% of his earnings, and, despite their estrangement, he was frequently accused of mooching off Yoohyun, who by then was the guildmaster of one of Korea's top Hunter guilds. Yoojin also gained an unfortunate reputation

Physical affection: ✓
Physical violence: Check with me! Grabbing/manhandling him is generally fine (and very easy to do), but anything causing injury is something I'd rather work out OOC first.
Shipping: All genders, 20+. Seems like he's always been too busy to date... (and also, g-good luck getting his baby brother's blessing...)
Mind-reading: Totally! He has no mental defenses of his own. Let me know IC- or OOC-ly if your character wants to read his mind, and I'll include his thoughts in my tags.
Magical information: Though Yoojin comes off to both regular and magical senses as pretty much a normal human in most ways, being an Awakened means he's slightly stronger than average and possesses some mana (i.e., magical energy). Also, those who are magically sensitive may notice a foreign source of mana in his chest, beneath a gnarly-looking scar right by his heart.
IC offensive subjects/triggers that might come up: Parental neglect, parental death, physical and financial abuse, kidnapping, serious threats to agency... possible pseudo M-preg...?
