⢠Role: student & prefect, despite his seemingly youthful appearance, he is a fountain of knowledge, no one can contest to the many tests he has taken, some even deviating from the area of his own expertise and studies; it is said that if one student has a question, hwaeyong will always have an answer ready with a simple flick of a tail, and a twitch of an ear.
đ¸ď¸ SECTION II â Aura & Style
⢠Aesthetic / Monster Fit: bathed in white, or maybe light, the clothing maple wears is a mix of modern, and traditional, the clothing flowy, and though they do not seem to match or be cohesive, he makes it work; from long blouses that frame his shoulders and flow off his body, to long vests and cardigans, pants, legs so wide one can not be sure if they are pants or a skirt, it moves along with him, like water, or even light. when the sun is at the highest, he shimers, or even sparkles, he will never be seen without the beads that hang off his wrists, and curl around his tails, little beads, traditional, made of gems, or rocks, they jostle with his movements, singing along with his movements, one cannot be sure if they are worn by choice, but no one has dared to ask as of yet, for the fox looks down at his wrist with such sadness and pain, fingers running over the skin, if the bracelets were to move, they would see the scars etched along their wake, proof of a past they are not yet to remember, same with the ones hanging off their tails, though maybe a less painful truth, those are treated with more kindness and delicacy, on days where he brightens the most, there are good luck charms hanging off his form, no one knows where they come from, but they are said to strengthen his constitution and mana. his nails are painted red, lips tinted in the same fashion, the corner of his eyes darken in different shades of red and orange, and his eyes are said to glow white in the sun. he wears shoes with the awkwardness of a new born baby, someone having no idea of how to handle fabric covering their soles, they would much rather run around barefoot, skin in constant contact with nature for it is comforting as it is grounding.
⢠Powers & Weakness:claw retraction: more specifically nail manipulation, maple can project and tetract razor-sharp claws made of bright energy, burning white fire and keratin fom their fingertips and feet.
fox-fire manipualtion: maple can create, shape and manipulate fox-fire which manifests as fire and light, he can also expel it from his mouth and tails, though if not careful, he tends to burn his throat and catch himself on fire. when wanting to travel fast, he is able to turn into fire himself, and traverse short distance, his fire tends tends burn out in cold weather and during the night, it burns brighter during warm seasons and in the daylight.
vulpes physiology: the capacity to be able to transform into a fox; maple is able to fully or partially change into a fox and use heightened senses to his advantage; because of his main strengths lay in his superior flexibility, agility, night vision, hearing and sense of smell, those abilities can easily become detrimental; maple can become easily overwhelmed by overstimulation, loud noises, potent scents, and even the night, too bright for his own sensitive eyes. it can leave him quite moody.
enhanced intelligence: his intellect grows with age, allowing for genius-level problem-solving and a perfect, eidetic memory.
weaknesses: tail removal, removing a tail causes loss of power and life, it can be lethal. he is bound to his promises and will suffer from loss of power if he breaks one; he cannot tolerate being bound or trapped, which weakens him physically and especially psychologically, it is detrimental to his mental state.
⢠Personality Shift: quieter, distant, there's a chasm between him and other beings that seems to never shorten, hwayeong is awkward in social settings, never knowing when to speak nor how to hold conversations, affections are stilted, warm words and compliments match in state, there's a coldness ever present for someone who seemingly only could ever burn bright, a hunger for warmth, almost as if offering it renders him insatiable, he will forever be unfulfilled, empty.
⢠Motivation: learn about his past, and figure out the meaning of his dreams, though he rarely speaks of the years that have gone, he remains haunted by memories that he does not seem to grasp, everything that he does, and he tries to achieve is to understand who he is and where he comes from even if every moment unlocked brings insurmountable pain.
đˇď¸ SECTION III â The Blackout Effect
⢠Do they remember the original HYDE? Or believe theyâve always lived here? He doesn't remember much, what he does remember are the halls, shared laughter and rooms, the way the lights would hit against skin, the warmth, but then when trying to think back further, he is met with the most solid mental wall, and trying to recall any further brings pain.
⢠Any glitch-visions / lingering memories? when it rains, he feels fathom pains, joints that ache, muscles that burn despite not being used, there's a sadness bubbling inside of him, threatening to burst out, dreary and dark weather is when his dreams become nightmares, memories of distilled sadness turn bright, and he wakes up in a cold sweat, wrists burning, arms wrapped tightly around his tails, almost certain he had lost them again, and he would spend the rest of the day distant, glancing furtively at anyone daring to approach him, because he had recalled the feeling of dust and ash, and was certain he had once been persecuted, and burned alive.
⢠A rumor whispered about them in the dorms. It is said to never cross hwayeong for those who do face dire consequences, whether or not it is true has yet to be proven, but those who break the rules spend many weeks cowering in fear afterwards.
