All kind of plots are allowed, but you need to respect the trigger rules and tag them properly.

[divinitykrp]

does your deity have to co-inside with your power?

Yeah, your powers need to be related to your deity, but not necessarily the same powers, like if your deity is a water god for example, your abilities could be water related.

                                        Uisu’s Bonfire Festival

Every year Uisu celebrate the beginning of summer with an annual festival. This festival consists of activities, market stands and the final of it all, the bonfire. Through generations, the bonfire festival has been celebrated through friendship and compassion and this year is no different. Welcome to the festival everyone, make sure to bring along those you hold dear.

As stated in the picture, this event will take place from the 12th to the 26th of June. We admins would love it if all of those who are available to attend send a message to the main blog on Sunday the 11th with the message “I will attend the event.” Our plan is that during the event we will have FOUR different tasks which the characters will solve in pairs. These pairs will be made through a randomization by us the admins. Two events will be solved with the first pairing you got and the two-second tasks with the other pairing. Of course, you are allowed to do other para’s or chats at the same time, we highly encourage you guys to make open starters too (!!) as we would like everyone to roleplay together. 

The events will be revealed either the first day of the event or a few days before. We hope as many of you wish to join in on this as we would love to get our first event up and running. (Any questions can be sent to the main)

kim seokjin ↠ 24, male, student & art dealer ↠ descendant of Aphrodite

“ɢᴏᴅs ᴅᴏ ɴᴏᴛ ʜᴇᴀʀ. ᴡᴇ ᴅᴏ.”

❋ — abilities

Seokjin can sense and manipulate love, being possible for him to increase or decrease the feeling, also he is able to curse someone to unlovability. With experience, these powers can be fully controlled and cause no harm. He is not aware of his abilities yet, but wherever he is, love is around. 

❋ — personality

Like a innocent child, Seokjin is pure, excited and affectionate. He seeks love like crazy since he never received it, and like a fool he will open his heart to anyone who gives him five minutes of their attention. He has a big heart and stays loyal to those he cares for, but he firmly believes he’s unlovable and fated to be alone forever. On the other hand, he can also be a difficult person as he doesn’t know how to relate or talk to people and can get carried away with his emotions, often throwing temper tantrums.

❋ — biography

Love always surrounded him, but it never belonged to him.

His family was swimming in money and he was treated like a little prince since he came to this world, but like someone royal, Seokjin was untouchable - his parents didn't want him frequenting normal school and having common friends, but wanted him to focus on being skilled, educated and better than the others in all the aspects. Before he was ten he already mastered violin, could draw beautifully and spoke three languages. They were the model family that would cause jealous in everyone and magazines would like to have a picture in the cover.

When he was twelve, things changed drastically. His role model parents started being investigated for association with illegal activities and they decided to send him away to the small city his father was raised in, Uisu, promising they would return as soon as things were okay - leaving Seokjin behind with a butler and a lot money. For some time, he believed his parents were trying hard to come back to him and it wasn’t so sad as he had many lessons and activities during the day to keep his mind distracted, but even with his butler’s efforts to keep him in the dark, one day he found out that they were living happily in Europe without him, coming to the conclusion he was disposable and the only thing that mattered was the love they felt for each other.

The rest of his life, Seokjin spent alone. The only person he had to talk to was his butler, the one that taught him everything he knows after he left his house in Seoul. He could’ve lived his life more freely now his parents weren’t around, but like a animal who spent many years in a zoo, he didn’t know how to adapt outside the glass dome we was locked in. It was sad and lonely, but also felt safe and comfortable.

However, his only friend and mentor fell ill and left him when he was eighteen. He was someone Seokjin loved deeply, so it broke his fragile heart into a million pieces - somehow, it was too easy for him to get attached to people, animals or just anything, but never the other way around. Against his own expectations, he decided it was time to see the world and decided to apply to the local university.

His goal now is to live like a real person and no longer like a porcelain doll.

❋ — personality

younghyun is what people call a pure optimist. the smile never seems to leave his face and his laughter can always seem to be heard from any distance away. no matter what the situation is he seems to greet it with a friendly hello and a smile. he’s always been the hardworking type, smart as a whip even though he might not show it. after suffering through what seems like an endless barrage of mental and physical strife younghyun is still here and he’s thriving. he refuses to show the weak side to himself and refuses to give up hope no matter the situation even if that smile is only a shield to cover the fact that the situations in his life have forced him into a life of isolation. the situation of his life before had taken and forced him away from his family and powers that he never asked for have an ill effect on those that wish to get close to him. although younghyun is brighter than most, they can’t avoid the feeling of dread and trepidation that seems to exude from him.

❋ — biography

CHAPTER ONE: A STAR IS BORN He was born to a family of eight children. Younghyun was the fifth child, splitting himself between being a good big brother but also a good younger brother. There were boundaries that he couldn’t overstep when he was in a position of being a good older brother as he couldn’t risk insulting his older siblings. And around the younger ones Younghyun had to put on a whole different face. And as he continued this little balancing act of his, his parents watched on. They could tell that Younghyun was special. And although others found him hard to read, his parents saw clear through him. He was seeing, questioning, and understanding things that the other children couldn’t even dream of. He was hiding his strength. His mind was constantly at thought and his eyes took it all in as they analyzed every piece of information that came through them. It was most noticeable when he interacted with the other children. Interacting with them wasn’t about building relationships, but an actor presenting himself to the audience. And although the audience loved him and ate him up while he was performing when the curtains closed and the applause and congratulations stopped Younghyun returned to his dressing room, empty and alone. And as time passed the show closed down and the actor was out of a job.

CHAPTER TWO: THE RED GIANT They were simple farmers. He was never the strongest physically. Maintaining a diet with the proper nutrients wasn’t possible but Younghyun had always remained the smallest and thinnest among his siblings. It wasn’t as if he didn’t eat as much as his other siblings, Younghyun had a larger appetite than any of them, but it seemed his body couldn’t take in nutrients well. Famine struck and life only became harder. It was a miracle that he made it past his second year. Soldiers came constantly and took food and whatever they wished. Every time they took more and more and left less and less for the family. They were forced to produce more and more on the land, draining the ground of nutrients without giving a chance to restore them. Soon they had to resort to bark, leaves, grass, anything they could get their hands on. It became a family of four. Death was never an abstract concept. His parents went first. Food was always saved for him and his siblings. Their deaths were slow and painful, worked and starved to death. His older brothers left, off to join the military and hoped to bring back glory for their family and if they made it far enough up the ranks, possibly aid for the family. Older sisters left, married into better families, hoping that they would be able to provide for their shrinking family. Younghyun and the younger ones stayed. 

CHAPTER THREE: THE BIG BANG Younghyun dropped the little brother act.  Their land was desolate, destroyed. They would have to live off the surroundings. Wild game, fish, berries, plants and anything that was available in the surrounding area they ate. Trapping and gathering were specialties he had learned from his mother and those skills helped them survive. The family was no longer living, they were simply alive and they accepted that. They were happy to just be alive as long as they were together. The first winter came. Food was hard to come by and they huddled together for warmth, bundled up in layers of rags next to the small fire that they could build. Younghyun ate the least, lying to his siblings because it’s what a big brother did after all and he was the best method actor there is. The soldiers came again. They were harsher than the winter. They were vultures, swooping down and preying on the remains of the weak. Their family would not survive another attack. However, they extend their claws offering to help. He feels the eyes behind him. How they are filled with uncertainty and how heavy they are. He reaches out. The talons sink in. Blood is drawn. 

CHAPTER FOUR: A SEED IS PLANTED He’s told he’s special.He’s introduced to the man that can detect those of his kind. A man with powers like him. They want to raise him as a weapon. Younghyun would do anything to make sure that the rest of his family survives. He never learns to love his powers or learns why he has them, but there’s no time for curiosity or feelings here.  The grip gets tighter and the cage remains closed.  He hears their whispers, but he never hears the words. They don’t allow him to mingle with the others and there are those who take an interest in him. He remembers that man. He had metal on his clothes and wore glittering shoes. Younghyun is as loyal and as obedient as they come. They command him to use his power to kill, to manipulate. He hesitates and they show him a video of his family. They’re happy, smiling, healthy, and they thank Younghyun for what he did. He hears the words “I love you”.  He speaks with a smile, “It is my honor to serve the Great Leader.” But it’s all an act. He knows that they must have died long ago, but he holds hope in his heart. A mission has gone wrong. His whole body aches with pain. He wakes; they tell him he’s in a different country and will soon be moved to South Korea. “Welcome to your new home” they tell him when he arrives. A defector, that’s what they call him. To his old country they would call him a traitor, but South Korea is bright and shining and beautiful and Younghyun wouldn’t mind being called a traitor for the rest of his life if he could just stay here.

jung daehyun ↠ 22, male, international athlete ↠ descendant of Futsunushi

“ɢᴏᴅs ᴅᴏ ɴᴏᴛ ʜᴇᴀʀ. ᴡᴇ ᴅᴏ.”

❋ — abilities

He has the ability to possess superhuman levels of hand-to-hand fighting skills and knowledge in combat. He is a natural born fighter and able to master different forms of combat and fighting styles from all sorts of different cultures, most specifically different forms of martial arts in very little time at all and with very little training. Though he cannot just start fighting in another style, he has to have at least practice it or watched someone else do it, but he just finds it easier to learn. When he is in a fight his brain operates just that bit faster than normal, helping him predict the actions of his opponent better than most. But he tires normally like any other person and isn’t faster in his actions and he doesn’t throw stronger punches. He still has to train and keep in shape like a normal person.

❋ — personality

Daehyun has never been a very calm person, all his life he’s been rebelling against any form of authority and getting himself into more trouble than he wants to admit. Though he is also incredible good at getting out of trouble again with a winning smile and a charming attitude when he wants to use it, not that this is very often. Though he has always had a problem with being a little too hot-headed and brash and far too eager to jump into a fight and start throwing punches. He is generally just someone who is pretty hard to get on the good side of and doesn’t make friends very easy. But that’s fine by him, he has never liked the company of too many people anyway. He tends not to care about people and is credibly competitive, hating to lose anything. Though because of his fighting ability he does seem to think he is better than other people and still calls himself undefeatable.

❋ — biography

Born to a single, rather unprepared and already quite old mother, Jung Daehyun has never really had an easy upbringing. While he was born in Uisu, his mother moved with him to Incheon when he was five years old.

Through school he was trouble, never paying attention in class and always getting into fights in the playground with the other students. He just enjoyed the thrill of the fight, throwing punches always got the adrenaline pumping and it was a good outlet for his anger issues. Not to mention he found that he was quite good at fighting, priding himself in being ‘undefeatable’ even though he was only fighting people with no experience.

After one fight too many for his mother’s liking she decided to do something about it to try and stop this kind of behaviour. Not long after Daehyun had turned 11 did she enrol him in Taekwondo classes, hoping they would help him channel the anger he had and would stop him getting into petty fights among his peers. It was during these classes that he realized he was more skilled at fighting than he had thought he was. Compared to other students, he found himself picking up the different skills quickly, rising through the coloured belts in no time at all. The trophies from different competitions he won started to build up in his bedroom.

It was just over a year until he started working on the Poom ranks, being still under fifteen and having reached the highest belt level he could at his age. But he still found it easy, having no trouble mastering everything, the only thing holding him back being the waiting period he had to take between the ranks. He started to grow restless again, eagerly watching the black belts train, trying out some of the stuff he saw when no one was looking.

When he eventually did turn fifteen and was eventually given his black belt 3rdDan, his mother was beyond proud of him and Daehyun couldn’t stop grinning. Though he could tell that some of the older boys were unhappy with him, envious of his natural talent for the sport. After the next lesson, he was surrounded by the same boys, about ten of them all older and stronger than he was. They dragged him to a dark parking lot, they called it an 'initiation’, but it was not that in the slightest. It turned out to be a ten-on-one fight and not even Daehyun was that good to take on ten older boys at once.

That was the first fight he lost in his life, left heavily bruised and bloodied and unconscious for someone to find a couple of hours later

Daehyun refused to tell anyone who had done it and instead just vowed to himself that he would never lose a fight again. And he stuck to that word, walking into his next class with his head held high, bruises still blossoming over his face and bottom lip cut open. He was told that he should be resting, but the teen didn’t listen. That lesson he took on each of the ten boys who had fought attacked one at a time and he beat each and every last one of them.

They never touched him outside of class after that.

He trained harder, fought harder, but it still wasn’t enough. When he was eighteen years old, Daehyun got himself mixed up with the wrong sort of crowd. The teen got himself involved in an underground fighting ring, no holds barred. His mother or his instructors had any idea, though they suspected that something was wrong when he showed up at home with a new bruises on his face and his fighting style started to get rougher. But he didn’t say why things started to change, while he kept up with the Taekwondo and continued to dominate in every competition he entered, he continued to fight in the ring, earning thousands in cash to live off of through his countless victories, holding himself to a word and not losing another single fight.

In his mother’s old age she had gone back home to Uisu, wanting the peace and tranquillity to grow old around when Daehyun was 20. He himself stayed in Incheon, continuing to train in his sport and representing Korea in different championships all around the world. However when he was 22 he received notice that his mother had fallen ill and was in hospital. He put everything on hold, racing to Uisu and that’s where he now is, looking after his mother with whatever cash he had left from the ring to pay for hospital bills and medical charges.

jung jaeyoon ↠ 25, male, photographer ↠ descendant of Eros

“ɢᴏᴅs ᴅᴏ ɴᴏᴛ ʜᴇᴀʀ. ᴡᴇ ᴅᴏ.”

❋ — abilities

Emotion manipulation.

❋ — personality / biography

Jung Jaeyoon had always been a little different from other kids. He shied away from social interaction and his mother though he had a type of mental disability, but that wasn’t the case.

He’d realized at a young age that he could shift a person’s emotions. His mom seemed to let up on him when he did something wrong, or was easy to give in when he wanted something. When he was five was the first time he became fully aware of what he could do. His mom and her current boyfriend had been fighting a lot and it made him anxious. When he asked them to stop they wouldn’t listen, so he stepped forward to attempt to intervene, but when he touched his mom on her arm her body relaxed and, while he was suddenly overwhelmed with an unknown source of anger, she smiled and stepped forward to hug her boyfriend. that was the first time he thought he might be ‘special’.

His suspicions were solidified within the first month of his arrival to first grade. A girl he befriended fell off the monkey bars and broke her ankle. While another student went to get help, he comforted his friend, but when he tried to hold her hand he was overcome with fear and pain so vivid that he himself started crying.

After that he managed to shy away from all his classmates. His ability scared him. He avoided getting too close to anybody. No only physically, but emotionally as well. While his ability worked without touching a person, it wasn’t nearly as affective or overwhelming for him. Without touching he was only able to influence emotions, not change them, and he couldn’t feel what they felt. If their emotion was too overwhelming, it wasn’t likely to shift at all without him touching them.

In retaliation of his efforts to avoid socialization his knowledge of interaction became limited and as he grew older the traits stuck with him. He often spoke without thinking of how other people felt and can be blunt about the smallest of things. He’s known to have a temper that isn’t easy to set off, but once it is you don’t want to be within a few yards of him.

Despite that, because of the emotions he feels within people, he likes to limit the hurt in everyone. he’s protective of people he barely knows. his mother and a few other persons are the limit of people that he willing lets himself be close to. All other relationships he had ended, usually based on the fact that they found out about his ability.

He’s trying to better himself, but it’s hard when half of your emotions aren’t your own.
