Character Name: Shin-Ah aka Seiryuu the Blue Dragon Canon: Akatsuki no Yona Canon Point: Chapter 93 – After the group leaves Lili Background/History:Wiki and Wikia
Shin-Ah was born to a village fearful of the Dragon Eyes. They believed that looking into the eyes of the Seiryuu, the Blue Dragon, would turn them into stone. On the day that he was born, his mother was so shattered to have given birth to the next Blue Dragon that she killed herself, leaving him to the village for care. They saw no reason to do this themselves and followed tradition instead, giving him to the previous Blue Dragon who was still alive. After all, when a new Dragon was born, it would draw powers away from the previous one until fully awakened and then the previous one would die. The nameless boy's first memories were of darkness as a mask was placed over his eyes.
Life with the previous Dragon, Ao, was not easy. He was not a man good with children and he knew that he would have to die at some point. He and the boy were supposed to stay inside, only venturing out when they were to protect the village from invaders. During this time he always wore his mask and could see further and further away each day that Ao grew blinder and blinder. Still, he had a bond with Ao who cared about him on some level and he worried about him, listened to everything that he said until one day when the boy was still a child he learned that Ao could no longer see. Only a short time later he was left alone when the man died.
In his pain, he saw a group of soldiers approaching. He was still small and couldn't use a sword the way that Ao had been able to but decided he would use his eyes despite the fact that Ao had always told him not to. Running out, he ran to the soldiers and pulled his mask off, unleashing his powers on them in an attack that left him standing in the middle of a pile of bodies when the villagers found him only to collapse as his power backlashed on him for what he'd done.
From then on, he refused to remove his mask around others. The villagers moved to hide in the caves of the mountains nearby and he taught himself to use a sword so he would never have to use his powers again. For the most part though, he was alone, only the company of a squirrel to keep him from drowning in utter loneliness and a lack of love. It wasn't until Yona came with her party that someone actually tried to reach out to him. At first he'd just seen a girl in trouble and had gone to save her. However, the moment he touched her, the Dragon inside him awoke to tell him he had to follow this girl. Since no one had ever told him what it meant to be a Dragon, he brought her to safety and then ran to hide in his room, surprised when she came to find him again. In his fear and confusion, he turned her away.
When a cave in happened, he came out of hiding, startling the villagers so that one hit him and accidentally knocked his mask off. Closing his eyes until he could put it back on, he tried to let them know that he meant them no harm and grabbed an ax. Without a word, he went to a wall to start smashing, only explaining afterward that it would lead them out to safety. Immediately people got to work, Yona included until she ended up collapsing. He was requested to take her somewhere to rest so he brought her to his room where she explained why she wanted him and made it clear that she didn't fear him. He wasn't sure if he should accept her offer but finally went with her back to keep breaking free where they rejoined Hak and the other villagers.
Outside, Yona offered to take her with him, to save him from the loneliness. She told him that she didn't think he was a monster and he realized that he could find a light and a purpose with her. Taking her hand, he agreed to go with her, bowing to the villagers in polite gratitude despite their fear of him as he headed after them.
From then on he traveled with Yona, learning more about the other Dragons from Kija and becoming the eyes of the group. He was always ready to help them to hide or to locate sources of water or food when he could and would defend them with his sword in a heartbeat. It wasn't long before he had himself a family and even a name finally, one that Yona gave to him after what he reminded her of. Shin-Ah...moonlight. He was even willing to hurt himself with his own powers to save her by showing his eyes to those attacking and found out that she was the only person who could look into his eyes without being harmed by them.
One by one, they gathered the other Dragons and formulated plans to gather power. As they did, they helped torn villages, feeding them and treating the sick. They decided to become The Dark Dragon and the Happy Hungry Bunch, a group of bandits that actually took care of people instead of harming them. He was happy in this role and did all he could to help out with it, making sure to be on the lookout for approaching Fire Soldiers and fighting them when he could.
Which was what he was doing when he was pulled away...
