// background
( the beginning . 0-15 )
jeongguk is one of the unlucky kids who never grew up with parents, his mother(and father presumedly) leaving him behind in the hospital after he was born.
to say he had an unhappy childhood would be.. accurate, actually. he was the classic stereotype of a foster kid; hyperactive, destructive, rambunctious and self-isolating. he never settled in any of the homes they took him too, jeongguks longest stint in a home being 8 months and the shortest being 1 week.
he seemed to have rotten luck with the homes he was taken too; deadbeats, neglectful, sometimes even abusive. jeongguk found that living on the streets was a much easier time than with a guy who considered smashing his head against the wall 'a lesson'.
even if he did see weird things during his time in the new york alleyways; such as one eyed men, women who had wings instead of arms one second and then normal arms the next.
( the middle . 15-16 )
it was sometime around his 15th birthday that something traumatic of the supernatural kind happened. see, if you weren't already aware(as jeongguk was), children of the 'big three' have a stronger scent to monsters and it only gets more potent the longer you're alive for.
by the time he was 15, jeongguk had seen things that no kid should ever have too see but the moment that really takes the cake was when a scythian dracanae decided to take a bite while he was between homes.
luckily for jeongguk, a satyr named chuck hedge had been tracking him for months and was able to save him just in time(even if he still sports the scars from the event). jeongguk was brought to camp half-blood immediately where he was placed in cabin 11. he stayed there for an entire year, going on a minor quest during his time, until he was finally claimed by a god.
the trident symbol appeared over his head after a stint of capture the flag, signifying that he was a son of poseidon.
( the now . 21 )
currently Jeongguk works as one of the camps delivery drivers for the strawberries. He lives full time at the camp due to not having a home outside the borders but honestly? He wouldn't have it any other way.
Camp Half-Blood is the only home he has ever known and his fellow demigods are his family.

// abilities
FIGHT STYLE / retiarius
A deadly fight style that revolves around capturing your enemies with a weighted net and finishing the deed with a sharpened trident. Retiarius is a Roman gladiotor style which leads to Jeongguk standing out compared to his greek counterparts. His favoured weapon is (obviously) the trident but he has considerable skills with using a sword.

// prompts
( prompt one - ideal for newbie campers, esp if they're younger than Jeongguk )
"Hey, dude, wake up" You slowly open your eyes to see yourself hung by your arms against a wall, you try to wiggle your way out of the handcuffs before you hear "I wouldn't bother, they're unbreakable" You turn your head to see a young man, his wrists bloody and scarred like he's been here for a long time. He gives you a mildly sympathetic grin "Don't worry, we'll get outta here, I promise."
_________________________________
( prompt two - ideal for everyone . this is meant to be a quick and easy plot with a definite end unless discussed otherwise )
"Yo, ____, think fast!" You turn with just enough time to carch the metal shield currently flying at your face. Jeongguk runs up to you, slightly out of breath, and jamming his thumb behind him "Help me hide this from the Ares kids" You look over his shoulder to see what seems to be the entire Ares cabin screaming after Jeongguk. "Come on, the forest!" And with that, he takes your wrist and you both make a run for it.
_________________________________
( prompt three - ideal for somebody with an abusive background )
Sometimes life can get a bit much to handle. You know this feeling all to well when after a particularly bad week that served as constant reminders of a traumatic past, you visit the beach to cry your heart out to the stars. "You ok?" You hear behind you. You turn to see Jeongguk, the last person you would expect to see and least of all who would understand, which you tell him with a few choice words. Instead of leaving, Jeongguk just gives you a sad smile and lifts his shirt to reveal an infinite number of scars "I understand more than you might think."
_________________________________
( prompt four - ideal for everyone )
"ow, ow, ow, ing ow" you groan and clutch at your bloody leg, trying to stay quiet as the forest bristles around you. you've met an untimely major injury during a game of capture the flag and are stuck just outside the golden fleece borders. it's getting dark and you can hear monsters starting to become active, knowing they can smell your blood. a twig snapping behind you makes you panic until you feel a hand on your shoulder "hey, ___, it's alright, i'm here" you turn to see Jeongguk crouching beside you but unfortunately behind him, you also see a deadly monster
*roles can easily be reversed
