Personal history

Born at the Forsaken Fortress.
'Rescued' at the age of 5 after his mother was captured.
Trained to be in the military
Worked on three ships, The Orion, The Atlantis, and The Cerberus, before being promoted to Captain and getting his own ship The Sunrise.

Education

Once he was taken in by the admiral and his family Hongjoong received the best education money could buy. It was hard at first to get him to focus but in time he became well versed in most subjects presented to him. As soon as he was old enough to enter the military he did so where he began further training in weapons, languages, ships, and everything else he'd ever need.

Employment

Hongjoong has only worked with the military, specifically the navy since he could join. After his initial training he transitioned to working on his first ship, The Cerberus, where he only served for a short time before the ship had a run in with pirates. While The Cerberus was in dry dock, Hongjoong begged to get back out on the water where he was granted temporary employ on The Atlantis when it left to track down the ship that had attacked The Cerberus. After a year or so on The Atlantis, Hongjoong was back on The Cerberus with 2 pirate ships under his belt. The Lost Star having been the one to damage The Cerberus was still out there and they once again picked up the hunt. Hongjoong continued to chase The Lost Star for another 3 years until his 18th year where they finally managed to capture the ship and take in the pirates aboard. After the capture and interrogation of members of The Lost Star Hongjoong was immediately pulled from The Cerberus and started his time serving on The Orion along with the admiral as they started the hunt for the Black Pirates. He continued working on The Orion until his 24th birthday when he was gifted his own ship to captain, The Sunrise, and tasked with tracking down and bringing in the Black Pirates
