sohye is a witch of house gwiin, and in the long tradition of house gwiin she is beautiful, promiscuous, and had a lot of freedom when it came to her training in magic. 

she has a particular affinity for the dead, specifically in communicating with and summoning spirits. 

as a result, she’s pretty comfortable with death, and has a tendency to say morbid things without realising how horrible they might seem to the average person. 

sohye runs an apothecary called siphons & spells. 

to most witches and familiars, this is just an apothecary. their one stop shop for spell casting and potion making supplies. 

for everyone else, however, siphons & spells holds a little more mystery. 

the shop is impossible to find on purpose unless you’ve been there before. however, if you need to find it—whether you’re aware of that fact or not—you may unexpectedly find yourself there one day. 

one of my biggest touchstones for her is yuuko from xxxholic, so if you  know that manga/anime, then that’s the vibe I’m going for lol (also like, the vibe you get when listening to rhiannon by fleetwood mac, that’s sohye)

she’s very social, spending every moment she’s not at the store, out somewhere either with people, or somewhere she can meet people. 

she’s alluring and strange, and absolutely a fun time to be around.

her full name is moriyama rize

her mother calls her ame

she is around 316 years old

she was originally a human but she was very very very and i cannot stress this enough very weak because she had an unknown illness that was killing her slowly

her mother had done everything in her power to not let her daughter’s life just end-- she got a vampire to bite her and everything!!

oh and would you look at that her mother had gotten bit too--- so they basically became vampire mother & daughter ( who needs a dad, right ) 

she moves around a lot so she knows some languages

she is a co-owner of a nightclub called ODD CIRCLE, her mother is the actual owner

she used to be nice and kind when she was a human, but she had lost those qualities after being a vampire for around 60-80 years

she is pretty much an asshole now and she doesn’t really care about anything, but she gets a little heated up when she gets in arguments that she knows she’s right about

she might be a two-faced vampire sometimes, she pulls a charming act on when she has to

( watermelon sugar ) m/f, any species - rize takes a sudden interest in you and wants to know more because you just don’t seem like the type that would come in a nightclub and party. you might have her attention for the night, but how long is it gonna last?

( supalonely ) m/f, any species - basically, those toxic exes that just keep on doing things to spite each other. 

( ankles ) m/f, vampire - enemies, there’s a deep hatred between them and there’s always something going down whenever they meet.

( soap ) m/f, any species - rize has a soft spot for you. this doesn’t exactly mean that she’d do anything for you, but you’re the closest person that she’d do a favor for, without asking for much in return.

( at least i look cool ) m/f, any species - since you’ve known her, rize always had her own reusable cup that you’d see her carrying around. she explained that it’s coffee everytime you’ve asked about it, but is it really?

( imagine if ) m/f, any species - rize stands up for you in the club when someone tries to push their luck with you and so far, she seems really nice - but that’s not the real her and she has an ulterior reason.

( fresh roses ) m/f, any species - as any other being, rize has her own problems and breakdowns, even though she doesn’t let anyone know. well, you catch her in one of these moments - and she’s not gonna let you live to tell the tale. or maybe...?

01. / platonic: he’s among the older vampires, although considered young for a master, and he’s amicable towards the council members and other vampires. he’s even amicable to werewolves, and doesn’t appear to care much about sitting in any hierarchy. he treats others as equals, so friends would be plenty, but he’s more of a listener. he’s mostly inquisitive about others, especially because he thinks they can give him insights and information, considering how pedagogic he is... if the information doesn’t contribute to his works as silver. otherwise, he’s also an interior designer, and humans would know that he’s very rich considering the inheritance he acquired after his ‘parents’ passed. others might know him in passing, he’s not exactly the most prominent vampire out there, but he’s been around forever, so the last name ‘yi’ might stick, especially for fellow vampires.

02. / antagonistic: well, it’s more likely that people dislike him as silver than as idris, maybe the council and fellow vampires that disagree with whom he’s eliminated prior. hunters might also find him as a nuisance plus competitor, considering that he might sweep their targets under their noses. he’s infamous for his bow and arrows, and mostly is elusive in front of humans, so his alter ego is in majority only known to the supernatural world. as idris, some might find him despicable with how private he is, as he’s not above brushing someone off when he feels that they’re too intrusive... although his ‘intrusive’ description might be a lot more sensitive than others would define it. he’s also not afraid of clashes, giving people a cold shoulder. the type to be quietly angry, so there’s that. hit me up if you have any ideas on this, too, especially if it involves actions!

TL;DR

born april 30, 1570 to a crippled scholar and two siblings. although the padre taught her to read and write, he was also silently struggling to support the household by just rewriting confucian texts and his own outdated books.

got engaged to a government official’s bastard and started something of an orphanage with him, but the children were massacred while trying to flee across the nam river from invading samurai. only kyunghwa and one of the little girls, sookja, barely survived after kyunghwa dragged them to another village with a doctor. 

worked under him for a while but before they could leave to search for hubby samdeok, the japanese launched a second widespread attack. while the villagers & nobles were escaping, a nobleman got shoved off the side of the cliff by his own ox and pulled kyunghwa down with him 😳

just before she was about to give up and die on the forest floor, a passing (godsend) vampire offered a second chance at life and turned her into a fledgling. all she wanted to do was see sookja grow up and marry someone nice, partly to atone for her failure to protect all those children, and partly because she hadn’t yet sought retribution on their murderers. lived with her sire for some ~20 years 

after bidding him farewell and helping out with sookja’s children, kyunghwa disguised herself as a man and served as a field surgeon of sorts during the first manchu invasion. after three months, went to work in the rice paddies to initiate her mission of Not going back to living in dirt

for the following couple decades, all she really focused on was making money and refining her supernatural abilities. the first time she got rich, she hadn’t heard of Financial Responsibility and nearly lost all her fortune until her sire had to relocate her and tell her to stop 

fell in love with another human while travelling, but after remembering how lonely it is to watch your lover grow old and sick while you’ve haven’t aged for a hundred years, she stopped trying to have meaningful relationships with most mortals

was once much more cutthroat and feral toward humans and hunters, mostly because the worst ones would always use death as a means of escape. now, though, she doesn’t fuck w/ humans too much as a vampire, only when she’s disguised as one of them in society

has a painting/picture of every house she’s ever owned. before she turned 150, she used to also keep a written list of her closest human friends and lovers so she would always remember them, but kept forgetting to add to it so it’s somewhere collecting dust in the attic rn 

regularly donates to orphanages and children’s programs, and established a couple mostly in the countryside

has developed an “it is what it is” mentality. she doesn’t actively seek death, but no longer exhausts herself just to avoid it. though when she’s killed, she’d prefer it to be when she no longer has any regrets 

loves to admire her different masters degrees and like two or three doctorates, all acquired from frequently changing her profession on whim. 

played sims when it first came out and *naturally* became an interior designer after, which is what she’s been for the past 6 years

highkey thinking about learning how to train elephants now (on a side note, she tried to tame a werewolf in wolf-form once but almost got killed by their entire pack)

uses telekinesis to get her cat out of the tree

MORE PLOT IDEAS!

vampires she’s known for centuries or ones just meeting each other for the first time

has sired two fledglings in her lifetime

currently not the biggest fan of killing humans to keep them silent, which is why she almost exclusively drinks from donors/donor bags. when you guys are out one night, one or both of you loses control. somehow you always bring out the worst (or feral) in her and a few weeks later, she still won’t get over how you “made” her kill that human after her 24 year clean streak

any genera friends!

classmates from grad school who wonder why this bitch looks the exact same as she did a few years ago

witches that she lends a bit of her blood to as long as she gets to see the final result of the spell. also might’ve been friends w/ ur great grandma

a witch she’s been pestering to invent the spell that makes blood taste like human food

cat-and-mouse dynamic with a hunter bc even tho kyunghwa’s unafraid of death, she still hasn’t built her greenhouse to grow banana plants yet
