Hwang was a towering Asian American man of exceptionally muscular build and short black hair in a buzz cut. On occassions, he would bear a cruel blood-lusted smile. His eyes shine a menacing red color whenever his emotion and power are unleashed. At home, in the United States, he was in a dark blue waffle bathrobe with white far. In his time at Korea, he had a golden chain around his neck and wore a shirt of red color, and a jeans of grey color. As the Shadw Greed, Dongsoo grew to a bigger size. His body is now fully covered with dark armor with purple armor emitting around. Unlike his human form, his face now resembles a skull and half is covered in a white aura. He also has longer purple glowing hair.
Greed, the Shadow of Dongsoo
Personality[]
Hwang is an immensely cold and greedy man with scant regards over others. He also exhibited incredible arrogance, which was evident as he believes that he stood a chance in facing Hunters that were far too powerful for his league, unaware that Sung Jinwoo had achieved a power that slaughtered his older brother's entire squad, leaving him blind to his chance of defeat. Additionally, he relished in exerting power over others weaker than himself, resembling his brother in this bullying demeanor. His only virtuous quality lied in his feelings for his older brother, whom he had unconsciously shed tears for at the time of his passing and swore an oath of revenge against his murderer.
