Trivia

This character was named 'Yaoguai' from 2017 to September 2024 on the day I'm writing this. As I said my knowledge of Eastern culture, history, and language is nowhere near perfect but this fictional world will evolve along with my knowledge of it. Yaoguai is the Chinese term for 'demon' so I patted my high school self on the back in 2017 when I came up with that genius name. It was then I played Black Myth Wukong and studied more on Chinese mythology where I found out naming a character Yaoguai is like literally naming a character "Demon". So I've renamed it Mianju Emo which means "Mask Demon". I'm getting a little bit better :)
