Hoon

**Hoon (困)** is one of the three main characters of the story. She is the character the story is told through.

## Hoon (困)

### Relationships

Bahu (partner), Zai (close friend), Hei (former master), Sho, Xin, Ji, Yange, Baobao (former friends), Tuojie (neutral)

## General

Hoon is a drowsy, alcohol-loving jiangshi. She is the mascot of sorts of the kunkyonshii series. She was originally made as a counterpart to another person's character, who is now obsolete. Her name, Kùn, means "sleepy" in Chinese.

She cannot bend her arms or legs.

Bahu, being her girlfriend, helps her with mobility.

## Personality

Hoon is very laid-back and calm. She's not generally one to care about anything unless it directly affects her. She usually never takes action on something unless she has to, or if it irritates her enough. She's far from a leader, and prefers to follow others.

She doesn't treat life as a serious thing, and takes whatever happens at face value. She is absolutely the type to live in the moment. She adapted this mentality when she really thought about how she can't die by natural means. Because of this as well, she's taken on an immense drinking habit. She's never found without some sort of alcohol on her, and is always either drunk, asleep, or hungover.

Despite how loopy Hoon is, she always does her best to be friendly and outgoing. It's a little more difficult for her to do this around people she doesn't know, but if either Bahu or Zai are around, she's at her best performance. It oftentimes comes off weaker than she would hope, as she's always muffled by her tiredness, but she doesn't care too much. She's happy with what she has currently, and she doesn't meet many other people often anyways.

She knows just how to treat Bahu, her partner. Bahu is easily stirred up and flustered, and Hoon thinks it's adorable when she freaks out because of anything she does. Hoon frequently teases Bahu in many semi-romantic ways, sending her spiraling into a moment. Despite all that, she does genuinely and deeply care for her girlfriend. They have a happy, slightly sappy relationship.

Though she gets a little more anxious with people she doesn't know, she can get plain irritated if too much energy is around. People with overwhelming, energetic personalities easily get on her nerves, and it's incredibly hard to get along with her if you have one. She actively avoids anyone like this, and if she can't get away from someone, she'll usually alert anyone with her that she trusts- albeit, in a seemingly non-serious way.

## Appearance

Hoon wears a thick, mulilayered, brightly-colored jiangshi-based outfit. Her hat is tall and rimmed, like a usual jiangshi, though a long tail comes out of the top with a small, fluffy ball at the end. The beginning and end of the tail are patterned with cloud-like shapes. Two other tails also come off the sides of the hat, also tipped with small balls. Her bright yellow talisman is pinned to her hat, and it stretches down to the bottom of her torso. It always reads "のろのろ" or "noronoro", which is onomatopoeia of sorts for "slow" or "sluggish". Her short hair is blue and pink, blue only in the front, and pink in the back. Messy blue hair covers her ears. Her eyes are a saturated pink, and she retains a constant blush.

The rest of her outfit consists of three layers. The first is the same shade of reddish-pink as her hat. It has the same cloud pattern across it, and is tipped with yellow. Atop this, around her neck, is a white, incredibly thick and fluffy collar of sorts. Under the collar is a necklace of chains, the ends broken off. Underneath the first layer is a purple scarf, and then a blue version of the layer above. It's longer, and instead of clouds, has a yin-yang symbol. Above it is a small blue fabric square lined with yellow embroidery. It's stil tipped with yellow. The front and back are held together loosely by small yellow bows at the sides of her body. Under this is the final layer, a purple one-piece that makes up what is seen of her sleeves and pants. Her sleeves are incredibly thick and oversized, and just above the edges are cuffs with broken chains attached. The chains have more bright yellow talismans hanging off of them. The edges of the sleeves are also tipped with yellow, and come out into a white overtop.

The pants are also incredibly thick and oversized. She wears blue socks with white slippers.

## Character

### Story

As a human, Hoon lived in China for around 20 years under a different name. She died earlier than most from an illness. About 100 years after her death, Hei resurrected her as a jiangshi, and gave her a new name. She made quick friends with Hei's other jiangshi, and stuck around them for quite a while.

Eventually, however, she decided to leave the group. So she said goodbye to her friends, namely Xin and Ji, and took off on her own. While overall, this wasn't a bad idea, she didn't stop to think about how bad it could be. On this aimless journey, Hoon started to get overwhelmed with lonliness and crushing boredom. Although she tried to ignore it, she started getting desperate, and soon cracked under the pressure. She ended up injuring herself as a distraction from all of it.

Luckily, she somehow ended up in Japan and met Bahu and Zai. All the negative feelings began to dissolve, and currently, there are no remnants of any of them.

### Struggles

Hoon tends to constantly ignore her issues and simply focus on what's happening in the moment. The alcohol she drinks helps, though it's not a crutch. With all the issues and negative feelings she has bottled up, they're bound to come bursting out at some point...

Hoon still has scars from when she used to injure herself. Most of them are barely visible, but some of the deeper ones are still around. The deep ones didn't cause her any problems, being a jiangshi, as she couldn't bleed. Bahu is the only person that knows about the scars, but she doesn't know why they're there. Hoon, though, tends to ignore them and pretend they aren't there.
