Shadow Sovereign's

One rainy night, Lee Juwon — a 24-year-old nobody drowning in debt and quiet contempt for the world — is stabbed seventeen times for the fifty thousand won in his wallet. As his blood mixes with the rain, a cracked black coin slips from his pocket and burns itself into his heart.He wakes up in the Dream Realm, a shattered mirror-world where humanity is livestock for ancient, sleeping gods. Every human who turns 18 is dragged into the Nightmare Trials — endless pocket dimensions ruled by nightmares made flesh. Survive one, and you awaken a Divine Aspect. Fail, and your soul becomes feed for the Realm.Juwon’s Aspect is broken from the start.[Aspect: Shadow Sovereign] Rank: Flawed Divine Type: Sovereign / Curse Description: You may command shadows, but every shadow you command hungers to command you. Core Flaw: The more power you take, the less “you” remains.Thus begins the rise of the most terrifying Awakened in history — a man who smiles gently, speaks softly, and leaves entire cities without shadows
