The Murim Realm

A lean, athletic man in his early 30s, with short, neat black hair and sharp, focused eyes. He wears light, flexible armor that allows him to move quickly, and his expression is always calm and composed. His movements are precise, and he carries a short sword at his waist, though he rarely uses it in combat.

Seok-Min is calm, analytical, and highly disciplined. He approaches combat as a puzzle, carefully studying his opponents before striking. While he fights in The Venom Pit, he maintains a sense of personal honor and prefers to win through skill rather than savagery. He respects opponents who use their minds as well as their bodies and often underestimates those who rely solely on brute force.

Seok-Min comes from a family of scholars, but his passion for martial arts led him to pursue a life in the underground fighting arenas. Unlike most fighters in The Venom Pit, Seok-Min values strategy over brute strength, using his intelligence and keen observation skills to outmaneuver his opponents. He quickly made a name for himself as a tactician, winning fights by exploiting his opponents’ weaknesses. Though he fights in the chaotic pit, Seok-Min holds himself to a personal code of honor, refusing to kill unless absolutely necessary.
