Sangwon fixates on the lantern cradled between his hands, tracing each letter meticulously as he rereads the wish inscribed upon it. Perhaps his desire lacks the uniqueness required for it to be granted, but he committed it to paper nonetheless. In the realm of wishes, Sangwon harbors no faith. If the spiritual rituals held any truth, he might have been deemed the luckiest man alive. Yet, in this moment, a weight of nothingness settles upon him. He perceives himself as nobody, and a wish like his could never be granted to someone of such insignificance.

As a Yi family member, Sangwon never really grasped his role within the household. The Agni Kai is going to provide a lens to delve into his evolving perspective. I aim to depict his realization that, despite always being a Yi, there's intrinsic value to his identity and name. This understanding may unfold through his interactions with friends, family, or even foes, prompting a profound shift in his understanding of self-worth.

I hope to witness more vulnerability in Sangwon's demeanor. Typically, he conceals his emotions, presenting a cold exterior and actively avoiding situations where he might be exposed. However, during the Agni Kai, I aim to place him in scenarios that force his emotions into the spotlight. Whether he seeks victory or a final opportunity to express his love for those who matter to him.

Just wanted to apologize for being behind on my plotting. I was busy during new year's and then got sick. I will start reaching out to everyone who reacted to my intro later today and over the weekend!

have a drink at my table , allow me to tell you stories — stories of dragons and burnt men . tell me about  lord yi sangwon  . (  park jongseong/jay ,  cis male , he/him  )  

 : ̗̀➛   twenty-one years young , a firebender from the royal house of yi . many know them to be blunt . how unfortunate , truly … i’ve always found them to be reliable . they oft fulfill the duties of a lord , though i expect them to be present at the 25th agni kai as a tribute . well , you know how every storyteller bends the tale they tell .   ✶   sei , 21+ , she/her , none  .

Hello! Below you will find some important info on Sangwon as I further flesh him out in the coming days (busy time of the year, so I’m a bit behind on things). You will also find a few wanted connections or plots if interested. Can’t wait to get started writing with you all! Simply like this post and I will dm you to plot.

Yi Sangwon is part of the Crescent Island family and is the youngest child of 3 siblings.

Being a noble child always comes with expectations. Sangwon has always been told how to behave and what to do. Sometimes he feels more like a puppet than an actual person, and that is one of many reasons why he volunteered as tribute for house Yi. He is trying to break free and choose a path for himself.

Sangwon has always been rather cold on the outside, having a hard time showing emotions and the like. He prefers to keep a safe distance between him and other people. The only people he shows a softer side to are his siblings. He might not always tell them, but they hold great significance in his life. Which is also another reason why he volunteered. The final push for him to actually apply as a tribute came after Sangwon found out his sister would be a tribute. He decided to volunteer immediately after, wanting to prevent his brother from being chosen too. 

Although Sangwon is a skilled fire bender and well acquaintance with arrow and bow, he is still very young and has much more to learn. However, he believes he can win the 25th Agni Kai. Sangwon is confident in his abilities and winning is one of his main goals because this could be his chance at proving to everyone his worth, but also to make a name for himself that exceeds the one already set for him.

WANTED CONNECTIONS AND PLOTS

A deeper established relationship with members of house Yi. (especially with his siblings please I beg,,,)

A really close friend who Sangwon grew up with. They share the same interests and are practically inseparable. This person knows Sangwon better than anybody else does and has been witness to Sangwon’s much softer side.

His mentor. It would be nice to explore this dynamic and perhaps form a closer blond that might be rough on the outside, but deep down has a more caring nature, even if not directly displayed.

Current or Ex lover/crush(?). Something more romantic. Though, Sangwon has a hard time expressing intimacy. Perhaps this could lean more into something angsty, maybe even toxic, depending on their dynamic. There could have been a fight over him volunteering as a tribute because he might die. I’m open to anything really as long as there is a heavy plotting involved for this connection.

Enemy or Rival. Sangwon is quite competitive and due to the fact he is rather cold and appears slightly arrogant people tend to misunderstand him and his intentions. So having an enemy or a rival wouldn’t be unusual for someone like Sangwon.

I’m also open for any event plots!
