hi it's anais (eunjae's mun) here again with a second chara! panic typing this at work rn bc i love to live off the edge ig but i've got her stats page here and below is some info on baek yongji a bitchy little cat familiar who's u know maybe just like that because she's unbonded and grew up around dark magic or you know maybe that's her personality who knows. pls give this a like if you'd like to plot and i'll message you as soon as i'm able!
background:
in short, bitchy little black cat that stares at you like ur stupid
grew up in a coven near seoul that primarily was made of dark magic users
kind of sort of grew up as an orphan bc her mother (a familiar) left the coven with her witch and never returned (sure a bond between parent and child is strong but in her mother's case not stronger than the one between witch and familiar rip yongji)
it's fine though (not really) like it's sort of a community care thing not dissimilar to how unbounded familiars are taken care of at the school so you're raised by a community though yongji always sort of moves with a chip on her shoulder because you're a kid that's relatively abandoned save for a few small gifts that get sent to you at random every now and again
she is definitely a bright kid though, despite obviously not being a witch she still learns a lot about witches and witchcraft by osmosis kind of and genuinely interested in learning about magic, history of it etc etc
ngl probs a litlte bitter she wasn't born a witch but not like you can change your fate so def just learns about magic really for her own curiosity and nothing more
after a while though you know the urge to be bonded really gnaws at her so she leaves the coven goes off to seek the world and hopefully find her witch, mostly just travels the continent learns how witchcraft differs in other cultures and about other cultures in gen, tbh spends a lot of time in like traveling the old silk road (gets to a point where like it's less about finding her witch and more about learning like generally a curious cat you know) and roams about the world for like idk 8-ish years (this amount of time is subject to change per plotting) but eventually makes her way back to korea
and idk she was moody and mercurial before she left but it's sort of amplified now and you could argue it's because being unbonded is really getting to her (it is) but also she's become more jaded and i think growing up around dark magic does have an effect on one too but yeah basically idk she's kind of moody and bitchy
i don't think she necessarily means any harm despite this like she actually really loves imparting knowledge onto like misguided witches or whatever from time to time even though she will probs make fun of them as she does it :/ again she doesn't really mean any harm
potential plots:
ok i'm braindead at work rn so it might just be better to brainstorm but
her witch, like idk isn't the thing all familiars want deep down like the relief of being bonded esp bc she's read a lot about wandered around looking for them for ages
idk but this kind of vibe lmao
someone she might've met prior to coming back to korea??? like met while traveling and stuff she sort of lived a lot as a street cat (simply easier to travel tbh and not have to pay for shit) but like meeting as humans or a witch that recognized she was a familiar and idk maybe forming a sort of friendship while gone
idk i'm not opposed to an ex plot or something i think that could be fun to explore too
idk really forgive me but again would love to brainstorm
