WHO ARE THEY?

PERSONALITY

(+) Loyal, diligent, easygoing (–) Unforgiving, temperamental, snarky

BACKGROUND

before her power manifested, yujin grew up loved. as the youngest child of two, she was ( and still is ) a bright girl who her parents loved showing off to their friends and colleagues.

when it happens, she’s eleven and an outcast. while her elder sister absolutely loved it, her parents only looked at her in disgust and she was no longer their bright little girl, but a mere ghost in their house.

her sister ended up taking care of her in place of their parents, making sure that no harm would come in yujin’s way. of course, there’s only so much that she can do for yujin.

it’s her last year in middle school and she already made herself enemies without even knowing about it. they cornered her behind the school, taunting her. they called her a monster, so she became one.

she seemed to black out and when she came to, she stood over the ringleader of the group. there’s blood splattered on her uniform, but she knows it isn’t hers. claws unsheathed and the taste of copper in her mouth, she doesn’t even flinch when the teacher that finds them lets out an ear-piercing shriek.

that’s when she learns that her power isn’t as great as it seemed. the week after the incident, she starts going to a therapist against her will, to talk about her temper even though that wasn’t the cause of it. she goes for her sister, she wouldn’t have gone for anyone else.

her parents seem to use that incident as an opportunity to kick her out. thankfully, her sister, who is in her second year in university, gladly takes her in to live in her apartment away from their parents.

despite all of this, she never lets her sister see just how vulnerable she can become. she’d have to be blind to not notice how increasingly stressed her sister is becoming. it’s not easy being a university student and an older sister at the same time.

so she maintains her high grades, makes friends in her new school, and always makes an attempt to lift her sister’s spirits up with some lame biology pun.

soon, it’s time for her to attend university and leave the makeshift nest her sister crafted for her. her sister is more than happy to send her off to gumi, because nothing could possibly be better for yujin than going to school with strictly powered folk only, right?

WHAT CAN THEY DO?

DEFINITION

hellhound physiology is the power to take form and/or use the abilities of the hellhound.

— physique: as there are a few variations of the hellhound, yujin specifically takes form of cerebrus. therefore, when she decides to shift into the hellhound, she will appear as a giant ( around 9ft tall ) three-headed hound with glowing red eyes that looks like a monstrous version of a doberman. sometimes if she’s not in the form of the hellhound but still uses her power, she’d only possess the glowing red eyes. otherwise, she looks completely normal.

— psyche: known as feral mind, she can tap into a primal, almost berserk rage that allows her to perform drastically better with a higher tolerance to attacks. this is only applicable to when she’s changed her physical form. she also has the ability to invoke fear in others and possesses predatory instincts, which allows her to perform well in hunting and tracking.

— enhancements: her physical capabilities are enhanced to match that of a hellhound. the improvements that apply regardless of changing her physical form are endurance, senses, speed, stamina, strength, and agility. the ones that apply only when she has taken the form of cerebrus are bite and durability. the speed of her healing has also improved.

— weaponry: she can extend and retract claws from her fingertips when she doesn’t take form of the hellhound. given that she adopts the traits and appearance of cerebrus, she can also breathe hell-fire.

WEAKNESSES

— time limit: if she were to use her ability with all her energy, including shifting, then it can take as little as half an hour before fatigue hits her, rendering her vulnerable until she’s capable of defending herself. the state of feral mind only lasts for a maximum of five minutes and drains a considerable amount of energy.

— physical flaw: when she takes form of the hellhound, her large size limits her movements in small spaces, so she may be required to remain in human form and rely on only her abilities.

— psychological flaw: she’s unable to remember what she’s done during the state of feral mind, which can also sometimes be activated unintentionally when nervous.

— range: fire breath only has a 15ft radius while fear inducement only works up to 40ft.

— resistance: users of psychic shield are highly resistant to fear inducement and users of cold/water based powers would have the upper hand when faced with fire breath.
