#Yeongno

[tarohonii]

Big issue that I tend to like the most inherently problematic characters in a series and end up having to fight in the trenches for said characters

Today’s disabled character of the day is Yeongno from How to Become a Dragon, who is visually impaired.

Do you think you can adopt these as pets?

They’re very cute and I think we could be great for each other.

Have you gotten the chance to check out the Tian Xia World Guide yet?

I have! I haven't yet sat down and read through the entire thing yet, but, of course, I went through all the monsters. I'm most happy to see THIS guy:

The Yeongno, eater of the rich and abusive. They claim to be former celestial dragons who fell to greed, who must either consume or redeem 100 other destructively greedy mortals in order to shed their broken and condemned forms and return to Heaven.

yeongno, my 1000+ year old child.. he drives me insane

A webtoon called How To Become a Dragon wrapped up recently, and then a spinoff started.

If I got to pick the subject of that spinoff, it would be the post-epilogue life of Huon, Sun, and Yeongno. Yeongno was an androgynous imoogi (snake that tried to become dragon but failed at the last step), Sun is a human whose ancestors were cursed by him, and the two of them developed an interesting relationship. Huon (whose ancestors were cursed by a different imoogi) gets a pretty straightforward crush on Yeongno.

Near the end of the pre-epilogue part of the series, for reasons too complicated to explain here, Yeongno reverts back to a snake egg, so Sun and Huon decide to raise him when he hatches.

And the bits of the epilogue focusing on that are nice! (Well, the joke about how Huon freaked out when he finally learned Yeongno was a guy all along was kinda dumb.) It's a very unorthodox family, and not just because of the weird supernatural circumstances, but everyone involved clearly cares about each other. And of course, there's the whole rest of the cast, who Huon, Sun, and Yeongno have history and chemistry with.

(Also, I wanted an excuse to share this panel.)

But the spin-off isn't about them. Instead, it's set in the distant past, and focuses on a love story between one of the other imoogis and a human. And it...eh. Yishmi didn't seem very interesting to me when he showed up in the main story, and nothing I've read in the prequel/spinoff/thing has changed my mind. It's not even an interesting romance. It's just a powerful supernatural dude coming across a suicidal lady and deciding he doesn't want her to die.

[ilikedyourablogithere]

dislyte wishlist

Aztec

Ītzpāpālōtl

-death goddess

-skeleton lady

-queen of the star demons??? (that is so hard bro)

-The Obsidian Butterfly/ associated with moths. She’d be the games first mothgirl

I mean this is still Dislyte so any girl design won’t be up to MY mothgirl standards

but it would still be a nice change of pace

Chinese

Ao Run Dragon King of the West Sea

-of the four dragon kings he was always my favorite (the plucky little brother that wants to help and all that jazz)

-storm dragon

-has a species of dinosaurs named after him. Dino esper is 100% something I want

they should totally do it. they would have my wallet at least

Egyptian (actually there is alot but I’m keeping it to just one per pantheon)

Ihy

-a musician

- the sistrum instrument looks like it would make for a cool melee weapon if it was bigger

think monster hunter hunting horn designs but dislyte

Greek

Pegasus

-dude it’s pegasus

-honestly they could go any way with the design and I’d think it’s cool.

Saint Seiya reference

 Full Horse Furry

or go the brewster/tevor route and make them a my little pony

Japanese

Ōgama

- toads...game needs more amphibians

-rainbow breath power

- give them a jiraya reference for coolness (Jiraya is folklore not mythology so I don’t know if he’s actually eligible to be an esper like at the point they might as start making superhero espers ) and they’d be set

Korean

Yeongno

- eats rich people

- associate with theater (who doesn’t love a theater kid)

- someone has to keep Narmer humble

Mesopotamia

Ishtar

-associated with Neith of egyptian mythos and I like Laura. Another Laura would be welcomed

Norse

Surtur

-no deep think.

-that’s it

 Giant and Fire is cool

I am so excited to see more about this before it opens in July! What kind of supernatural creatures are going to be available?

hi! we're actually opening in mid july but we decided to push our buzz and opening to the end of july (or early august?) the reason why we decided to push our dates back and have been letting this ask sit for so long in our inbox is because we have been thinking and want to tread very carefully so as not to misappropriate asian culture (despite one of the admins being chinese southeast asian herself!). we realized that in the middle of research, many of the supernatural creatures that we plan to make canon come from closed culture/religion/indegeneous practices, or that there's simply not much information about them on the internet that may prove to be useful for our members that would allow them to portray them in a way that is respectful of the source material. but one thing for sure is that being said, deities from closed religions/practices or any major religions are absolutely off the limits. moving on, some canon supernatural creatures that we have fully fleshed out are:

gwishin (ghost)

dokkaebi (grim reaper)

bunian (malay folklore beings, similar to european elves)

baku (japanese mythical creature with the ability to devour nightmares)

qilin (a benevolent chinese chimerical creature)

meanwhile, some creatures that we are still researching that may not make it to the final canon creatures are:

kappa

kinnara/kinnari

cenderawasih

garuda

gumiho/kitsune/huli jing

yeongno

that being said, we take suggestions and critiques with open arms! if there's any asian supernatural creatures that you would like to see (or not see), send your suggestions over to our inbox <3

[bari-apologist]

Tbh Yeongno is an easy character to feel bad for because of how well his motives and character direction is displayed , hes like really creepy though 💀💀 stalked Sun and is like, not leaving her alone. I know he feels bad but if he respected her opinion he would keep distance for awhile. Hes a good character but a bad person and thats whats so great abt his writing

Miri sucks too but he actually kinda redeems himself later on, like hes really shady but he at least doesnt want anyone to suffer if they don’t deserve it. If anything hes kinda like a soccer mom later in the series LMAO . Miri has a really bad personality but he actually cares about Bari which is nice. If anything you can rely on the fact that he gets the job done and wont like betray you. He considers it but he never actually does it 💯💯

Huon was a character I never really hated since I always felt really bad for him but I do remember him being super unliked at the beginning of the series, hes so much nicer currently though. Sun is great she did no wrong 👍 shes like a real adult which feels weird to be saying but with how many petty and bad adults there are in media its refreshing to see characters with common sense, its apart of the reason why Youngs so enjoyable. Hes still a silly guy but hes like. A responsible person .
