### Skills

**Broom Flight:** The ability to fly using brooms or broom-like objects. Brooms made by a magical hand work better, and non-magical objects will fail after a few rides. Jihyun is also not the most gifted flier and often crash lands.

**Precognitive Dreaming:** The ability to perceive future events via dreaming. Though dreams can warn him of what is to come, events can very rarely be altered. They are also only a small snippet of future events and are easy to misunderstand.

**Dream Walking:** The ability to walk through the dreams of others. Dream walking can be dangerous business, especially should someone awaken while he’s within their dream. He could potentially sever the bond between his soul and corporeal body. He can also visit the dreamscape tying dreams of all creatures together.

**Dream Magic:** The ability to perform magic related to dreams. This can be broken down into three smaller abilities (creating dreams, manipulating dreams, and manifesting objects from dreams). He is limited based on another person’s experiences (i.e., he can’t make someone dream about something they have never thought about or seen). In addition, if a person wakes up while performing any kind of dream magic, his spells can backfire and put him in a deep sleep that takes days to wake from.

**Zodiac Magic:** Jihyun is empowered by and can perform magic influenced by certain aspects of astrology. The position of stars and planets (say, the position of the Aquarius constellation and Saturn) directly impacts his level of access to ethereal zodiac magic, and thus at certain times of the year his powers are heightened or weakened.

**Magical Telekinesis:** The ability to lift, move, push or manipulate matter using magic and his mind. Works best with smaller objects and insignificant tasks. If he tries to move anything that is too large, he could strain himself and pass out.

**Crystal Magic:** The ability to use magic through/based on crystals. Each crystal has different abilities, and they all must be properly maintained. If Jihyun tries to use the wrong crystal for the wrong job, his magic may not have the desired effect.

**Magical Concoction:** The ability to create potions, elixirs, and other magical tonics with varying effects and lasting power. These concoctions can go awry very easily, as they all require very specific action, incantation, concentration, environment, and ingredients. He is adept with several different kind of elixir arts, but because of his family business knows a great deal of healing magic.

**Spell Casting:** The ability to use incantations to cast magical spells, which are largely sourced from family spell books. These spells can be simple or complicated and have a variety of effects depending on intent. However, if an incantation is pronounced incorrectly or the wrong word choice is used, spells can go horribly awry. Each spell also has strict requirements that must be met (i.e., physical ingredients, spoken words, or rituals), otherwise they will not work. Jihyun may also not be powerful enough to see each spell through, as he is still on the younger side.

**Familiar Summoning:** The ability to summon familiars, namely a black cat named *Felis* made of dream magic.

## Background

### History

The Chois were one of many important families to contribute to the founding of Lost Cove, a safe haven for supernaturals. They became a pillar of strength for the community, offering their elixirs and magic to keep its residents safe and healthy. Their apothecary services have been passed down the family along with their magic, manifesting in the form of the irreplaceable Witch's Thimble. Jihyun is set to inherit this shop someday, but has always helped with inventory and deliveries since being small.

Jihyun was born and raised in Lost Cove. He thrived in this little seaside community, excelling at his schoolwork and magical studies (well, other than broom flying; he always struggled with that). He graduated high school with top marks and managed to swing an apprenticeship with one of Lost Cove's most respected and powerful witches. It was a good thing, too, because his dream magic was hopeless to control.

From the time he was born, Jihyun was always inclined toward dream magic. He summoned his first familiar at the mere age of six years old, even brought back items from the dream realms. In fact, he even began dreamwalking (visiting the dreams of others) at eight years old. And he hasn't stopped since.

But as happy as most of his life has been, it has not been without scandal. Jihyun's father once belonged to the Lost Cove Council, the committee that governed over Lost Cove. However, it was discovered that Jihyun's father was believed to be providing supernatural test subjects to the Supernatural Regulation Investigation, the governmental faction dedicated to the research and regulation of supernaturals. This led to outrage in the community that he was meant to protect, which ultimately led to his exile.

The Chois are largely considered to be disgraced by this, and as such Jihyun has faced animosity from Lost Cove patrons. His family shop has been vandalized, professors came down tougher on him, and has even been assaulted by those that consider the Chois traitors to Lost Cove. He hides it well, but Jihyun carries a lot of pain and guilt related to his father's betrayal of the town he holds so dearly. An opportunity to make it right presented itself in the form of strange portals appearing throughout the historic district of Lost Cove. He volunteered to check it out, get it the bottom of it, and ended up being sucked inside of one -- straight into the Nexus Hub.

### Motivations and Goals

Jihyun wants to understand why the portals appeared in Lost Cove, and why the Hub exists in the first place. He wants to solve the mysteries of the Nexus Hub.

## Room

Jihyun Choi's room in the Nexus Hub's Harmony Quarters reflects a unique blend of cozy cottage vibes and modern minimalism. The walls are painted in soothing shades of lavender and chartreuse, with wooden accents that give it a warm, earthy feel. Clean linen drapes and cobblestone-patterned flooring add to the rustic charm.

The room is adorned with various potted plants and herbs, creating a serene indoor garden atmosphere. Crystal clusters and tarot cards are displayed on wooden shelves, giving the space a touch of mysticism. Soft, ambient lighting is provided by vintage-style lamps strategically placed throughout the room.

Jihyun's elevated bed is designed with a minimalist frame, allowing for more open space below. The bed is adorned with cozy, purple and chartreuse bedding that complements the room's color scheme.

One corner of the room houses his gaming setup, complete with high-end gaming computers, where Jihyun enjoys both work and play. This combination of natural elements, mystical decor, and modern technology creates a space that truly feels like home for Jihyun Choi, the perfect harmony of his interests and personality.
