OTHER ALIASES
oh jungshin; to avoid being suspected as the dead teenager at the incident back in 2008.
mute boy; literally had an unwritten rule that he wouldn't even talk for a day, unless there is a warning somewhere that the other boys might be shredded to pieces at a dire situation. at best, he mumbles or talked only a few times a day, the 'three-words rule'
do sihyung's incarnation; kinda runs around that sunho is rather similar in attitude. barely any talking involved (shep to a severity) and a rather pushover-ish attitude, at a certain extent. but for some who knew sanghyuk died eons ago, a rumor on how it could've been sunho who involved in his death, albeit the rumors are rather far-fetched and it's impossible for him to know about sihyung, although the guy could've been hiding again, somewhere, and the unsuspecting sunho knew him, maybe.

FACE CLAIM kim jooyoung [jang yijeong]
APPEARANCE the easiest way to recognize him is his droopy eyes that is probably half of the bigger pairs, anyway, piercing through with near emptiness besides of a confident glint whenever he's on missions, but that's another story. tends not to smile or move his mouth, except if he is pained with sharp bullets or knife wounds (not referring to the red-haired). he probably had a collection of any colors, green and yellow excluded, but that's mostly at his torso, back and front. there are some, much smaller cuts at the limbs, that quickly disappeared after at least a few days, so it's much less noticeable (except at occasional accidents, in which he hurriedly covered himself and asked them on what they were doing). hair dark brown and nearly black, he didn't really have much to say about the color, though he avoided blond like crazy, for reasons never specified.
STRUCTURE 183 cm & 65 kg
PERSONALITY
(+) observant, patient, calm, protective
(0) modest, blunt
(-) passive, jaded, dull, impractical
most people who remembered Sunho as not much of a talker, and Sunho wasn't always the one to have a penchant to stir up a conversation as much of a controversy; he's usually looking wary and is wary of many things; overthinking has done its results to him and he is not impressed with himself. he face-off people the same way he has done years ago, get kicked around doing things that he want for the sake of others. that part is the section where it is hard to change him out or his ways; he's impractical and doesn't really seeks out many adventures more than the life he had been given the option to. Sunho also has been carrying missions and tasks like it is nothing, and so much for indifference as so much for being unreactive to those whom he considered uninteresting; he's remarkably honest about others not being so much better, but it's usually out of informed points and not so much of 'i fxxig hate your guts yyou -'. Sunho's general avoidance of conflict unless inflicted is what usually doesn't put him on energy when faced with well... interacting. He's pretty incapable of taking humors in (though he is capable of lame-as-fxxk jokes). For times when forced interaction takes its way, Sunho is capable of donning shreds of his mask, but he gets worn out easily it hurts him more of faking. He is modest about his things, and prefers to keep his own problem to the back. He would compliment when needed to and keeps his time managing and people under the best way not to provoke wars in and out of Ares nor other colleagues or juniors.

He would compliment when needed to and keeps his time managing and people under the best way not to provoke wars in and out of Ares nor other colleagues or juniors.
But like a sheperd himself, Sunho usually has a sharp eyes for situations and missions; even for members themselves (that also counts his unfortunate moments of having to bear the immeasurable wild sounds of humanity around two a.m. in the morning). He notes their ways and reads the faces - always trying to figure out the characters of an individual, whom he would always thought is interesting, as mich as he hated conflict being thrown right in front of his face. And even so he endures the provoking and judgeful eyes, the merciless beatings and loss, things that turned his world monochromatic. But all he knows, nothing last longer unless his mind keeps on replaying the losses. He's 24 years old, six years after the hell known as middle and highschool, and has grown out of the temperament he used to have. The mindgame of memories are over. He's not enthuastic about seeking out troubles, and is used to it that he doesn't hesitate to take action once he felt he himself is going to be in danger. But little things that makes it worth it, the hilarious hijinks and heart-warming antics of the younger boys and colleagues, his sister... breathes out a life to him, despite the pressure they have to hang on to, some worse than the others. And he, who had studied the bearings of life, is not hesitant to let a hand out to save them from the deep trenches of the cliff.
BACKGROUND
1998, veteran Yang Hyunsang shot his wife, children survived. — There isn't much, but he knew about shots of guns and his sister screaming at him to open the door to his room. By that time the sky was violet, almost morning, and all they could hear was the churning silence of the room; and his sister huddling to him in tears and the harsh cold. Three times the sky turned violet again, he finally heard of a sound; and a powerful light that blinded both of them, and only to hear that the adults talking and shouting words; and remember the very next day that he attended a soldier's funeral, along with his wife. It wasn't until to this day that he realized the soldiers were the last of his family. With no relatives known or responding, the siblings were left without a name known, at both seven and three years old.
because the most loyal would break under society. — Sunho and Sunhee lived off in a government foster home before being taken in by a kind veteran and his wife, an ex-colleague of his father, and has been living off rather well. Sunhee had not known of whatever happened to her real parents, and enjoyed the love and care that her foster parents had given to her. But Sunho had his mind replaying the memories of fears and the unwritten promise of himself; that no one is to be trusted, exception for his sister (who had no clue of what happened). All the times used for his foster parents to connect with Sunho had failed off. He remained stubborn and had chosen to only talk very small bits, never more than three words a day. But Sunho still genuinely cared for Sunhee, even more so when both of them entered school. That's when Sunho realized, one belief he held even tighter to this day; even the most loyal would break under society.
i had a mask. — Sunho had followed his studies well, albeit the academics are only so small compared to what he looked upon at the school itself. What lies behind the polished marmer, remained the most brusque minority construction of a society. Those who were richer than outstanding would remain at the highest hierarchy, and the lowest are better off eating dirt than breathing the supposed prestigious school. Sunho could only gape and stare helplessly in disbelief over the social pariahs being beaten up for not being the equal of the kings - and even the kings as they ate upon each other's words and manipulation. Sunho didn't blame his foster parents - he himself had an easy pass over the social pyramid thanks to the face and complying. Oh, and that section is now his own turning point. For all childs that he had seen, the kings wanted to test the normals on whether Sunho would be the other pariah or a second-in-hand. Sunho, left with no choice, beat the kids with the guilts he had on his face — and the realization kicked in. His biological parents had been kicked in the way they were. And he was going to. But the battle of minds worn off when Sunho thought he would not even break - just surviving the whole ordeal would be fine by him. He wore the mask of the society.
and even then, society would always . — Sunho dons the mask out of fear, but even the mask itself starts eating him out. The days passed off when he would beat the childrens like the headsmen of the medieval nobles. All went unnoticed by Sunhee and their foster parents, who thought of him as just fine in school. All was well, until Sunhee was 13, Sunho was 18. One of the kings had hassled over her for being protective against another girl he had been targeting, and forced Sunho to finish her off. Pressured and terrified when he saw his own sister had to be taken down by him, her eyes wide and lost all of its color and trust, Sunho backed down and yelled out that he would never own up to that, and threatened out to reveal the bullies' ever-looming threats on the students. Taking his sister's hand away, Sunho left the scene and dropped the mask of society. But Sunhee was terrified of him, her distrust had fallen on the man she relied on the most. She didn't speak to him for a few days.
unless you run. — Few days later, Sunho hadn't realized anything weird happening to him; he still resumed school, but onto the fifth day, six p.m., one bully had left him out a message that they got out Sunhee, and that if he wouldn't get out to get her, she would be in grave danger. Turns out, by the time he arrived, there he saw the 'king', the minions, and several even more unfamiliar - albeit dangerous - people. Guts sick to the bone, he realized he fell into their traps. When he tried calling the police, he was kicked down to the ground, beaten, until he managed to held on by beating them with a rusty pipe nearby. But with moments to spare before his conciousness swept away, he heard shots, yelps, and thuds of people to the ground. Sunho had not been able to hear anything by the time his sight had blurred into hazy lines, he heard unfamiliar yells of agony from a farther place, although he couldn't see who the person was.

and live it new. — Sunho would've thought of himself dead, but had woken up in a health care unit and Ares looming over the eighteen-year old, seemingly judging of the sins that Sunho had been doing, and greatly unnerved him. Ares spoken, in Sunho's memory, "Count your sins, and finish what you choose." Sunho realized that it would be his last calling; the cowardly Hong Sunho is gone, and for the next seven years, lived on as Shep. His 'death' was ruled out as homicide, until a certain maniacal had met the loved one of his past... .
TRIVIA
[Three-word Quota] talks with a deep voice, slow even. It's really unknown why he did such. if it's not necessary, Sunho does not talk at all. He barely let out three words per day, much more a grunt than an audible voice. Three-word quota is one of the things other psychotics or several maniacals had seen of him.
[Fears] Fun fact, he's not claustrophobic, yet fears being inside the toilet alone. There was that unpleasant incident when he was changing his clothes, and his bathroom door was unlocked and held by his feet. By the time he lets it off, the door was locked from the outside. He got stuck for two hours thinking about how he always flushes, never been a hassle, and doesn't use excessive tissues. The next half an hour, he's asleep. One mad boy freaked out. He later on figured out it was Knives pranking the wrong person.
[Past Lovers] None, if random crushes on the streets didn't count. He had hundreds of those, including those he had mistaken as girls. He didn't want to talk about it, albeit the results have been rather comical (offensive, at times, even). And of course, the cute nurse downtown... .

[Injury List] By the time he was brought to Joker.XX, his body injuries included five broken ribs, one fractured scapula, fractured skull, and a fractured ankle. There's a reason why he's pretty iffy when having to change his own clothes with other males around. The scars at the back are still intact. He's not proud of it.
[Siblings] Ironically, while they are biological siblings, Sunhee and Sunho do not look or act like each other. Other than yes, they both made rather... intimidating/stiff/awkward facial expressions when not in imminent danger (or first impressions).
[Sociability] He's labelled boring for one thing; he's what people been saying as, living under a rock. He spends most of his free time walking around Seoul and eating snacks. He would fetch a little time just writing, but nobody has an idea what he wrote/having a hard time to.

[Journals (?)] Sunho stalks observe the members of Joker.XX and keeps tabs of them in his journals, but it went unnoticed by those who opened it, thanks to the fact that he replaced all of their names with food and drinks (e.g. 'Wonton' for Fang, 'Bolo de rolo' for Knives, 'Skate' for Ares, etc.) and that his handwriting is so horrible it's inducing headaches. One honestly asked whether he was craving food and alcohols.
[Flower Boy] Loves daisies for obscure reasons, but it might be linked to the fact that it reminds him of his old home in Pohang. Yes, it kinda smells bad if he's not lucky. Anyways, the tradition started when he was young - every December 10th, he would talk a little more than the other days, a rare occasion. He would ask his mother to buy ten daisy stalks and two chocolate muffins. Now, after never seeing her again in so many years, the years after his stay in Joker.XX would involve him buying ten and putting them in a vase by the window before drying them out so they could still be decorative.

[Sea] Honestly loves the beaches, wishing to return to Pohang and enjoy a day eating by the seaside alone.
[Real Family] the siblings' real surnames are Yang, but later on changed. Their father is a veteran remarried with someone a decade older than him; it ended up badly with the mother revealing a note about the children.
[Delusional Comfort] while not a particularly religious man (the fact that seeing abominations from child trafficking to accidental deaths of the henchmens that had no idea what they were doing already jaded him badly), there is a feeling of a reassuring delusion and a strange calmness whenever he sat down at the empty cathedral, left with one pastor (whom he never talked to, yet seemingly understanding), thinking of the past deeds and how the future would go, and how there's a possibility on how there could be an escape to rejoin his foster parents and sister. The points when he completely ignored the pain of his enemies kicking him (and at certain times, Ares when he failed) was at the certain tick where he started feeling sleepy, ignoring the thumps that cracked his bones and thought of his parents smiling, at the seashore, where Sunhee would start laughing and threw seawater at him, and another guy, with him holding hands with a woman as they went in their happy memories... somewhat of a future to behold.
[School] While not a particularly notable thing back in his days, he had a starry record in gymnastics at middle school and highschool, one that he would use later on in his life. One of the bully had called him 'gay' and he's honestly not amused for it.
RELATIONSHIPS
hong sunhee 'daisy', sister, Sunho usually sneaked out of his habitat and watched over his own sister, who he genuinely cared for and wouldn't hesitate to throw himself under had her life been in danger again. Unfortunately, of all the days he would secretly protect her, his heart breaks when he knew Sunhee had her own guilts over watching his 'death'. Someone would say that he had a slight sister complex, but what gives when Sunho was able to see Sunhee caring for him the most? If there is one trigger that would remind him of her and her of him, Sunho would buy ten daisy stalks at her birthday. It was a habit he had done when he was even younger, maybe when he was seven. She's the only one that he could connect with, genuinely and selflessly. the same couldn't be said of the girl; she felt the loss to be overwhelming, but once she got over it, her loss is at a smaller magnitude (albeit still large). His protective stance almost never affect her as good until his, "death". sunhee wasn't a believer of somewhat him being alive, understandably.
fang 'wonton', somewhat future brother-in-law, Sunho had heard of feng saving a certain beloved someone (/coughs/sister) and while he's quite relieved with the existence of feng, he's not amused by the fact that this guy might had something going on in his heart. But nonetheless, he's relieved of the sanity of fang (tbh he really can't pick out anyone better for his sister so). Fang is somewhat the maniacal he feels is a trustable/reliable (because holy, he's not getting Sunhee over Sunho). Fang, one of the Joker.XX maniacals that he could get along with, continually respects him as a senior, but sometimes just can't help cracking several name puns or several awkward pauses when Sunho did not react at all (THEY'RE GONNA GET MARRIED AMIRITE? PLEASE LET SUNHO BE UBER-PROTECTIVE FOR SUNHEE AGHH). And then a certain panic at the younger guy just got him when he realized that the older guy could possibly butcher him when he saw what him and his girlfriend did... . the only one Shep felt closest to, only after several while of him coincidentally knowing of Fang being madly in love with a girl, after one of the witnessing of his sister.
but sister-complex set aside, fang does have a slight distrust, if not less than sihyung, whether the one who'd beaten sanghyuk could've been sunho instead, but not a lot of people are able to know how sunho's past is, to be honest. main suspect; sunho had beaten sanghyuk
gyeon sanghyuk (never mentioned), suspected for his death, both having an eventual meeting around the time when sunho would disappear, yet they never interacted in real life, but he was the one that might have helped sunho turning into shep, escaping death at the hands of the bullies, and even so, he barely survived. at least from rumors, this is what shep heard; sanghyuk died being beaten to death at fifteen. sunho nearly died being beaten had it not been for Joker. he figured out two things; fang and sanghyuk are friends, thought sunho might've helped killing him, while never knowing who is who, and which is which.
ares 'skate', the intimidation, Sunho would honestly admit; he had no single idea why he had been loyal or stayed with the man. To Ares, Shep is a boy of strong actions yet weak words; one who would consider his allies with loyalty. Which wasn't wrong in its own accord, but Shep always considered the safety of those involved and feared for their lives more than his own trust, which could translate as of being a bossy person, one that Ares couldn't bring up to like that part, though Sunho rarely showed it. To Sunho, Ares is the epitome of danger; one who can force him to speak out more than just three words, and doesn't hesitate to kill. Their relationship is barely neutral if not constantly having Sunho fidget for fifteen minutes in his seat; Ares had him in straws and he does not like it. Between sympathizing over the things he had suffered or having a silent growl when seeing him beating the merciless, Sunho can't decide.
STRENGTHS
Episonage; While is actually quite tall, Shep's ability to blend in behind the shadows are pure live-saving points at certain missions, especially the solo ones. It's not that Shep is horrible at fighting; but he's not exactly those who likes to get his hands covered in blood. So when attacking others, it's usually one quick pull off the crook and the enemy is dead.
Strategy; One of his notable skills of looking at people and deciding how they would end up with his handiwork. He takes up several minutes to make up his mind, before winding up and kill the target in one whoop of a swing. Enemy plans out five steps ahead, Shep goes on in two minutes how to get his head five steps in front of Ares. He's not exactly the best in teamwork, but he does what needs to be done.
Flexible; This probably has something to do with him having records in the gymnastics, but even after his long-healing ankle has been able to work again, his results are more or less not as best as he was before. Not to mention his age has been old enough right now, 24... but still, he's been practicing day and night and the results are more or less satisfying his hit-list.
WEAKNESSES
Force; Shep's body is honest-to-goodness cannot endure so many punches and is physically one of the weaker psychotics. One can say that two broken ribs had certainly screwed his brains in and out. When his plans go wrong, he's easily one of the first to fall off.
Orthodox; With a planned attack and being used to his main weapon, he's not very remarkable with knives or guns (poor aiming skills has its horrors), when his plan literally fails off, he wouldn't have time to think about another reason to make it better, and instead wonders why he failed on that one.
Counterattack; His weapon is not the kind to resort to violence, and requires him to at least move out a little, which episonage may not be able to do its job. So without so much of correct jabbings and quick neck breaks, Shep is forced to either run or fxxing beat the person to death (which he's not good at).
STAMINA x
Like your heartbeat; Shep doesn't waste energy on his missions, if he can get it done in fifteen minutes, that better be that damn time. He takes shots of breath before finishing off, his body moving with steady energy around him. He stays that way for most of the time, except if he feels very angry, but no, that doesn't happen a lot.
WEAPONS
Shepherd's Crook While seemingly notable of a non-violent use, Shep had improvised and left a sharp blade instead. The staff itself is only a few centimetres below him, and is made of steel. In case his enemies did manage to get away, he would pull out the arc bent and held their necks against the sharp knife. And he could actually pin on/ slam them to walls with the staff itself, due to its length. And of course, hitting people's head with metals are enough to kill them. think about jack frost in rise of the guardians.
ETC
» use unspecified knives when not using his weapon.
His fighting style is mostly passive and generally avoidant; only striking to paralyze enemies when the time says so, in contrary to his prior pressure of beating innocent kids. His fighting style has been mixed; but it's more on the self-defense than offense.

never getting to know the people in his school much, albeit going there for the longest time, sunho could remember slightly that she was a sickly one, breaking the absent records like no other, while sunho had an absolute sxxt job that he really didn't want to remember.
never getting to know the people in his school much, albeit going there for the longest time, sunho could remember slightly that she was a sickly one, breaking the absent records like no other, while sunho had an absolute sxxt job that he really didn't want to remember.
but if teachers aren't able to provide a good care, their students do, at least, a certain few. hyojung fainted at an unexpected time, within almost no one but sunho's gang. without anyone's command, he hurriedly took hyojung back at the nursing room, much to the bully's dismay. disappearing, but only for days later, where hyojung recognized him, right at the corner of the class, asleep, and whispered a thank you. sunho's ears perked up at that, fully awake, but didn't move, just to keep things at his heart. hyojung sighed, and picked up something at her pocket, slipping a keychain at his drawer. never in his life would he thought of her anymore.
INTERACTIONS
having no attraction to her at this point, and hyojung never really go searching for a dead person, they just... didn't really feel more friendly. he still occasionally pass his own papers about how he was, still unable to refer about his own life at Joker.XX. but there's always a saying, that women would know. he's probably going to be doomed, most likely. and he honestly didn't want that to happen. two years before he disappeared, and he wanted to live normally again, forgetting the darkest parts of his life, once and for all.

being sudden friends towards sunho, someone she had been giving her thank you, but never really expect to appear, in a very weak state, begging her for help. most likely that she also felt sympathy for him, and thought he had deserved his own karma (not exactly wrong, but just wrong), that she, rather unwillingly, ended up connected to him. but only slowly that, she started warming up to him, surprised by his own much less awful personality, still unaware that the repentatnt has not fully let go of himself.
THEIR STORY
at one curiosity relating to sanghyuk's death,
shep returned to his school, around the time it has been abandoned to shambles. the good things were moved out to another place, but the bad ones, remained. the walls had been charred with messy grafittis, the chairs and tables vandalised, even his. but gently putting it back to place, silently watching the broken rubbles of the castle, he remembered; hyojung. pulling his drawer, the keychain was still there. and when he opened the pendant, in which he learned; it wasn't hers either. and piqued by interest, the more he continued searching anything about her, he discovered it was her friend's, dead to suicide. rather than anger, one question goes; why was it given to him? and even so, fate doesn't really have an answer, but decided to meet both of them up.

months later, one particularly heavy fight ended up injuring him badly. headquarters way too far before he could've died, he rushed to the nearest clinic, one which he had known hyojung to work. using the excuse, he begged for her to help him. surprised, knowing how he should've died long ago, yet heart still shaken, she patched up his wounds. he disappeared after that, only to send a letter with the money, and a promise to visit her next time.
using another excuse about a mystery, shep talked to her about what his circumstances are; his supposed death and living. surprised, but as they continued, sunho finally asked.
"what was the keychain for?"
hyojung was even more taken aback, but answered, "my friend died because your group did awful lot of things," she said.
"my only friend. and she's gone before i was able to say thank you. because you know how the school, was. rotten. nobody cared for the desperate, and that day, when you just helped me... you get it wrong. it was originally for her, but i don't think i'd be able to find someone who did that to me. thank you. and i'm sorry i wasn't able to remove the best friend part." hyojung turned to stare at him, an unreadable expression that puts him off. the normally prepared shep turned into a flustering sunho.
"so, i am your friend?"
"aren't you?"
"even if i am a monster?"
"if you are, you'd know."
frequently passing whenever he's on break, but at the same time, whenever he's injured, which is still much secretive, at first, but as they continued, with Ares starting to suspect shep being involved with hyojung, his view at the younger guy became... awfully not good.
RELATIONSHIP uncomfortable friends trying to catch things up.
ENDING shep realizing that their existence is just in plain danger if hyojung continues with him, although both of them never really had an intimate relationship. days later, he excused himself out, begging her for something else; leave to another place in the world, where he promised to meet her again. understanding the circumstances, she quietly left, sunho trying to understand loneliness, as he tries to forget her. disappearing from seoul to a small village.
but three years afterwards, when she returned to seoul, she accidentally bumped into a guy who was walking to a train station. never recognizing him, only for him to tap her and smiled. hong sunho. whether she went aboard the train or not, the future is only left to be decided.
