NAME || Yoon (Yun- meaning ‘cloud’)
ALIASES || Dreameater Princess, Princess Yoon
AGE || ~19
ZODIAC || Pisces
SPECIES || Supernatural Human

ABOUT ||
  • Princess of the Tao Empire with dream-eating powers
  • Based on the Baku spirit; shape-shifts into a white chimera when summoned to eat bad dreams
  • Keeps her kingdom safe as her presence strays away evil spirits and harmful yōkai
  • A person must be careful not to summon her too often; if she remains hungry after eating a nightmare, she will also devour a persons hopes and desires
  • Not capable of any magic or offensive powers, she can only dreameat

PERSONALITY ||
  • Kind girl with a calm demeanour, though she has moments of naiveté and playful childishness 
  • Often leads others to think she is very simple-minded despite being extremely intelligent; she never shows her cunning side unless unnecessary
  • Refuses to do her job after throwing child-like tantrums over tiny matters such as a rip in her clothing or finding knots in her hair, in which she will send out chimera spirits to eat for her

Despite coming off as spoiled and childish, truth is that Yoon is very serious when it comes to dream-eating. She takes these occurrences as bad omens that her job won't go well that night- in other words, fearing she may eat too much. During days like these, she will claim that “it is not a good night for eating”, and instead decides to go wandering in the night.


BACKGROUND ||
  • Given powers by the chimera beast when she was a baby, after her first nightmare
  • As a child, she would often disguise herself and sneak into the city to play and meet new people
  • She became friends and would often rendezvous with a group of poor merchants’ children, who were unaware of her being the Princess. After learning of their difficult lifestyle that caused them to have shaking nightmares, she offered to help them get rid of their bad dreams- to their confusion but delight. However, the more she helped them night after night, the more she felt hunger afterwards and cravings to eat more, until she eventually consumed their hopes and desires as well. After being discovered by her guards, she was taken back to the palace and was urged to keep quiet about this incident. Growing up with the same habit of sneaking into town, Yoon watches the people she was once friends with living monotonously and without meaning in life- as well as often paying visits to the graves of ones who took their lives as a result of her powers.
