Gender: F
Height: 1.63 m
Race: Demon fox
Status: Current chairwoman. Acting as a bartender at the bottleshop, which is one of front groups.

Daughter of Elder Jeon and the Millenary Nine-tailed Fox. She has lived many years and changed her identity many times. Current name, "Hoya" has been used since the early 2010s. She identifies herself as a human being, refuses to believe she is a demon fox. She also hates liver meat. Her lifelong desire is to slay her mother by her own hand. She is a lesbian.

In the late Joseon dynasty, she belonged to the Underground Taoists지하도사; 地下道士. In 1909, just prior to Japanese annexation of her country, she went to Hawaii as a coolie. In 1913, she joined Industrial Workers of the World (IWW) and became aware of Western thaumaturgists, who were helping IWW. In 1918, United States government stroke a fatal blow of oppression to IWW and 166 union members including Hoya, were arrested. She managed to escape from prison and returned to Korea. After homecoming, she gathered a small number of capables, who did not convert to Japanese collaborators, into the launching of "Dinodon's Society".

In the 1920s, Hoya and Dinodon's Society assisted Korean anarchist group Fierce Justice Corps의열단; 義烈團 by fighting against IJAMEA. After the Corps disbanded in 1928, Hoya attempted to travel through mainland Japan alone in 1930, but failed. After the collapse of Imperial Japan, Korea was divided into pro-Soviet Stalinist North and pro-US Fascist South. In despair over the fact that there was no room for her in Korea anymore, Hoya erased her memory by herself and went into hiding. She rejoined the Hand in 2011, and elected as chairwoman, which had been vacant before.

Her specialties are physical combat체술; 體術 and vulpine magic여우술; 狐精術. Combat position is a bruiser. She can distort the enemy's perception of her position by passive mind-affecting field. Then she will stab the back of the enemy who attacked the wrong spot. Her favorite artifact is a magic bullet launcher in the form of HK USP.

Even though she denies being a fox and gets angry when someone treats her as a fox, the names she has been using for more than 500 years have always included letters meaning "fox" or "beast." This is an expression of her willingness to remain vigilant to consciously curb her biological nature, loathed by herself.

Kang Naroo _{강나루, 江津}

Initial: Knr.
Birth: 1988
Gender: M
Height: 1.82 m
Race: Korean, Human
Status: Current vice-chairman. Publicly known as a mystery writer.

His name "江津" is read aloud with "Kang Jin", but he calls himself "Kang Naroo", rendering Chinese character 津 into Korean "Naroo" meaning "dock". Though he had been working in a branch of the Serpent's Hand since 2005, he does not remember exactly where he was belong to.⁴ He left the Hand in 2010, and worked as a freelancer thaumaturgist. Then he was involved in a certain incident in 2020, and became financially embarrassed. So he joined the Dinodon's Hand. Soon after his join, he was elected to a vice-chairman, in the name of "experienced newcomer."

When he joined the Dinodon's Hand, he brought a girl named Hueyeong with him. He is silent about her identity and how he met her. Hueyeong is not treated as a formal member, but as she cannot leave the organization by herself without Naroo, so she is treated as a de facto member. When he goes to the scene, Hueyeong usually goes with him and assists him.

His fighting efficiency is not that high. It's not that he can't fight, but he tends to make makes mistakes at important times when he works alone, and sometimes get into trouble. Such a tendency is greatly improved when Hueyeong and other members are together with him. His capacity to quickly analyze the other's thaumaturgic power and characteristic is especially useful to find the weaknesses. He is good at making thaumaturgic structures including the Way by applying his own thaumaturgic knowledge, and is also very interested in the indigenous thaumaturgic cultures of various regions.

Ryang Daheui_{량다희, 梁茶姬}

Initial: R.D.
Birth: 2001
Gender: F
Height: 1.53 m
Race: Korean, Human
Status: Operating a mid-base disguised as a pension house in Jeju Island.

A hereditary moodang (Korean shaman)세습무당; 世襲巫堂. She was born with the strongest channeling power in the hereditary mooism in the Dinodon's Hand. So she can easily communicate with the Divine Spirits神祇; 신기, and is especially favored by Princess Bari the ancestor goddess of Korean shamans, who is also her ancestor. Thanks to Bari's grace, she can easily expel lesser ghosts without a particular exorcism.

Her mother who was also a member was the Hand. In the year of 2013, she was killed in action with GOC and Daheui succeeded her. Because of her strong channeling power, she was raised among the Hand from the time when she was a child. This made her ignorant about fashion and trend of the outer world. The younger members including Rim and Yool have pity for her on this, but she seems to be quite indifferent. Usually, she operates a pension, opening the "Way" onto the Dinodon's Hand's HQ, to maintain contact with "the Crones"the Goddesses of Seocheon Country Club.

While she is strong against ectoplasmic entities (called ghosts or spectres), her offense power against people is insignificant. Though she has mastered basic thaumatology, she does not have specialties for antipersonnel attacks, unlike other members.

Morríghan ingen Ernmas

Initial: Mrghn.
Birth: Unknown
Gender: F
Height: 1.70 m
Race: Tuatha Dé Danann
Status: Current liaison. Acting as a bouncer and waitress at the bottleshop front.

She loves someone who has a strong mind and indomitable creed regardless of gender. She feels pleasure when a person challenges and pushes on their creed to the world then force themselves to the world itself. And she enjoys helping people who became her persona grata. Such a relationship became romantic sometimes.

Her hometown was Hy-Brasil (a.k.a. Tír na nÓg). However, she despises her own hometown because she thinks it is a nest of autistic jerks in torpor state. She left Hy-Brasil hundreds of years ago and then join the Hand (or the predecessor of the Hand). Since then, She has been a loyal member of the Hand up to now. She helped IRA throughout the 20th century and sided with the Northern Irish IRA after Irish partition. In 1997, She made "damn big" trouble in the UK and was listed on the GOC Red Notice. So she escaped to the Korean Hand, and was appointed as a liaison between Korean and European Hands.

Her specialty is shapeshifting. As a master shapeshifter, her favorite shapes are black beasts including ravens. Partial shifting is possible, so she can fly with raven's wing and humanoid body, and so on. Default humanoid form is an Irish woaman with long black hair and green eyes. Combat position is a nuker. She summons translucent blue mail and Celtic sword before engaging in melee. Although she prefers close combat, a long-distance attack is also possible as she can shoot a magic bullet from her fingers without the need of artifact. In fact, the magic bullet launchers used by SH-KO were made from reverse engineering of Morríghan's magic bullet circuitry.

Moon Ginam _{문기남, 文器嵐}

Initial: M.G.
Birth: 1985
Gender: M
Height: 1.75 m
Race: Korean, Human
Status: Raising funds by selling ropes⁵⁶

Born as a Korean domicile조선적; 朝鮮籍, he has several connections with North Korea that allows him to scout the North Korean state of affairs and dynamic. He's studied the art of sealing and was granted a master's degree at the Japanese branch of the International Center for the Study of Unified Thaumatology(ICSUT) located on Mount Osore of the Aomori Prefecture. While he was pursuing a PhD., his sister was arrested by the GOC for advocating the ideology of the Serpent's Hand and went missing. Luckily, he was not arrested with his sister because his academic supervisor guaranteed his loyalty. But being frightened beforehand for GOC would not let him be, he left and fled to Korea to join the Dinodon's Hand.⁷⁸

His combined knowledge from the ICSUT and the Wanderer's Library made him an expert practitioner of many types of seals and the methods to break those seals. He is especially interested in the ward ropes, a restraint type of seal, such as the Korean geumjul금줄; 禁줄 or the Japanese shimenawa주련승; 注連縄. He produces several varieties of ward ropes all on his own, and his hobby is to research the difference of the effect and effectiveness of the ward ropes depending on the material and the way they are manipulated, hence his place is filled with all kinds of ropes.

His main mode of combat is to use these ward ropes like a whip. However, he is reluctant to use the ward ropes he made himself, relegating his ward ropes on display at his place and never using it for battle. Instead, he uses the cheap, mass-produced ward ropes he bought from the paranormal markets. His fellow members complain heavily about this.

Back Byeonggil _{백병길, 白昺吉}

Initial: B.B.
Birth: 1980
Gender: M
Height: 1.89 m
Race: Korean, Human
Status: Raising funds at Shindang-dong smithy street.

Byeonggil is a member of an Underground Taoist family who was part of the league since when the Dinodion's Society existed. His great grandparents were the comrades of Hoya since the Japanese occupation of Korea. However, the Soviet army killed his great grandfather for being an anarchist briefly after Korea's independence, and his great grandmother was killed by the South Korean military during the Korean war. After the war, his grandfather moved to the United States through Japan with his family and settled at Three Portlands.

Byeonggil grew up in Three Portlands and entered Deer College, majoring in thaumatology and classics. However, after pondering about his origin, despite family opposition, he dropped out of college in 2000 and joined the Korean military to serve for the Special Forces. The Dinodon's hand, who was keeping an eye on his family, noticed this, and approached the now-all-served Byeonggil and organized him as a member.

His seniors and friends gave him the nickname "Big Boy" due to his large physique. He is gentle yet strict and tough. He is a mentor of Yi Rim's thaumatology and martial arts. Even the cheeky and rebellious Rim shows respect to Byeonggil.⁹¹⁰

His main ability is physical enhancing thaumatology, preferring unarmed hand fighting after the enhancement. In serious fights, he wears a power fist동력권; 動力拳 made by the technology of the Church of the Broken God. He runs a blacksmithy to take care of his equipment, doubling as a front business. His position in battle is a bruiser. Unlike Hoya, who tanks by evading damage, Byeonggil is a classic bruiser who tanks by absorbing damage.

BradánFeasa.aic

Initial: BrdFs
Birth: Unknown. Current personality was compiled in 2019.
Gender: Hazel
Height: N/A
Race: Artificially Intelligent Salmon
Status: Current treasurer.

Hän used to be an AIC made by the Foundation. In 2018, hän fell beind during a mission in Maxwellian Simulspace before being seized by the Maxwellians. Then, the Dinodon's Hand purchased hänet with the expense of hänen remodeling in 2019. The Maxwellians already extracted any possible information about the Foundation from hänet and reset hänen Personality Driver, so the Dinodon's Hand cannot get any information about the Foundation through hänet.

The current shape and personality of hänet was demanded by Morríghan who ordered the details of the remodeling. Hänen name "Bradán Feasa", meaning "the Salmon of Knowledge" in Gaelic language, was also named by Morríghan. Usually, hän is called "Bradán." Hän is courteous and speaks in a polite language. The loyalty to the Foundation was neutered in the process of core remodeling and doesn't exist anymore.

Hän has been serving as a treasurer ever since hän was recruited because of hänen ability as an artificial intelligence to carry out large-scale calculations quickly. Usually, hän swims between nine monitors installed on the walls of the Dinodon's Hand Headquarter in the form of the salmon with big antlers and possible to talk. Even during the swimming or conversation, hän still runs hänen duties as a treasurer in the background.

Even though hän is not a living organism, let alone a human being, the other members treat hänet as an equal personality and one of the members. According to Hoya's authoritative interpretation, in the Serpent's Hand, AIC stands for Artificially Intelligent Comrade, not Artificially Intelligent Conscript.

Seo Yool _{서율, 徐慄}

Initial: S.Y.
Birth: 1995
Gender: F
Height: 1.57 m
Race: Korean, Human
Status: studying abroad in German Mages Academy.

Once was a victim of school bullying. While trying to avoid being bullied, she accidentally killed the bullies by her ability. Morríghan watched the scene and recruited her. After being recruited, she lived with Yeon and Rim under the same roof of Yi family. Was once a timid personality due to school bullying. She is recovering by interacting with Lim.

In the course of her entering the Serpent's Hand, Hoya expunged all human relations around her in order to cover her homicide. Though she was separated from her family, she does not seem to miss them and seldom talks about them. Instead, she tends to regard SH members as her new family. She attended a new high school with Lim.

Her specialty is space leaping공간도약; 空間跳躍, a.k.a. blinking through warping축지법; 縮地法. It is not only a transportation method but also can be used as a means of attack. For example, setting the destination point within the body of enemies before blinking again with grasping the enemies' internal body (how she killed her bullies), or blinking with an object to burying it within the body of enemies, and so on. Combat position is a tricky utility dealer using various application of her specialty. She had learned basic thaumatology from seniors including Yeon and trained her ability much more variously.

Hong Heui-ji _{홍희지, 洪喜至}

Initial: H.H.
Birth: 1980
Gender: F
Height: 1.58 m
Race: Korean, Human
Status: Current secretary.

25th generation descent from Jeonghyo duke from Earthy Hong line from Clan Hong of Namyang. She is a descendant of time-honored underground Taoist family and has a strong attachment and a sense of duty to the organization. Hoya exploits her devotion to upload almost every many works onto Heui-ji.

Being a secretary, she has to be in charge of the interior affairs of the organization. That's why she rarely comes out from the HQ. She sold her family house and takes care of her own room and board within the HQ. Her parents were killed in action against GOC in the year of 2000. She holds a deep grudge against GOC however, she pockets her feelings so thoroughly that anyone who does not know her past cannot even notice her ressentiment.

Her specialty is a psionic sensation초감각 개방; 超感覺開放 including telepathy and wide-area space perception. Especially, telepathy is useful to communicate psychically with lesser demons such as monopods독각귀; 獨脚鬼¹¹¹² or bamboo leaves soldiers음척; 陰隲, as they have no command of human languages. It is also Hong's duty to control these lesser demons doing various kind of chores at the HQ. Thus, she seldom engages in combat and focuses on support.

Nykänen, Sirkka Jr.

Birth: 1950
Gender: F
Race: Finns, Human

As an anthropologist at Helsinki University, she secretly pursues proto-Nälkä communities across northern Eurasia, from Finland to the West and to Kamchatka to the East. She wants to bring proto-Nälkä into the open to make them a legalized ethnic minority and devotes the latter half of her life for this mission. Nobody but the Serpent's Hand knows the real goal of her research and helps her. When she goes to a fieldwork, she wears a special naisenlakki (traditional Sami women's headgear). This headgear is an artifact similar to a newsboy cap of Neglect, and the Hand gave it to her.

Her maternal grandmother, Eriika Nykänen was once a comrade of Hoya when she involved in IWW.¹³¹⁴ She is such a special guest.

The First Step Seoul, 2012 Author: Nareum	One more step, to make it irrevocable 조심스레 일어나 현관문으로 비틀거리며 걸어갔다. 생각보다 오래 잤는지 방 안은 한 치 앞도 제대로 보이지 않는다. 그래도 걸어간다. 문 앞에 무슨 빛이 있을 것 같았다. 내 발목에 감긴 덫을 걷어줄 그런 빛이. 살짝 문을 열었다. 복도 창문에 몸을 기대고 있던 누군가가 기다렸다는 듯이 몸을 일으켰다. 가로등 역광으로 얼굴이 잘 보이지 않았다. 어깨 위에 앉은 검은 새가 보였다. "내가 깨운 건 아니지?"
Dialogue: about A Certain Royal Death Seoul, 2013 Author: salamander724	No life is heavier than others, while some life is lighter than other's. “I explained. He was such a nuisance that he was alive. But he died and then became a trigger of March 1st uprising, and the Confucians like Yi Hoeyeong converted to revolutionaries. How neat. There are some people whose death is more helpful than living himself. Our last emperor was also one of such type of people. That was it.”
Searching for the Demon Foxes: First Report Busan, 2020 Author: salamander724 *Vixen's Þáttr*	Is a human foreced to be a monster a human or not? “So, it seems that the main issue is how can we penalize someone without humane ethics when this unethical life is caused by segregation from human society, not by her free will.”
Secret Transportation, From Busan To Tōno Sadogashima, 2020 Author: Joshua Islands *Vixen's Þáttr*	To make onward facing the past, someone has to do it. “Responsibility. Responsibility for what? Ao, I certainly sought cooperation from you and your organization, but that doesn't mean I demand you an atonement.” “……Although it is history already, that history is indispensable to us. Inheriting it…… Someone has to inherit and solve it, and make onward.” “You're talking big. Both of the meritorious and guilty deeds of our ancestors are inherited regardless of our intentions.

As soon as you pick it up, the driftage begins to talk about its own drama. It can be a heartwarming story, but if it is a hair-raising horror, it would be irrevocable. If you love the sea, you should be more careful. If you picked something up thinking it was rubber gloves, but it was actually a torn hand, then you'll never be able to play along the ocean again. _{(From the Bottom of Dark Water by Kōji Suzuki)}

Hwanung granted their request, but the procedure to fulfill it was not an easy one…

Compatibility of canonicity

The lore of the Dinodon's Hands prescribed by this hub is compatible with Joseon canon and Fusouki canon.
Even if the works feature the Dinodon's Hand, if they are inconsistent with the lore of this hub, they will not be listed on this hub. They will be treated as the uncanonical parallel universes incompatible with Dinodon's Exuviae storyline.

Additional information about SH-KO

Population:

As the Serpent's Hand is a group of a few good people, SH-KO, which is Korean lodge of SH has no more than a dozen of people.
Half of them are clansmen whose families have not betrayed nor renounced since the times of Underground Taoists. The other half were newly recruited (so-called "organizing" by SH-KO). And a few people difficult to be categorized into either side.
The art of life extension양생술; 養生術 was lost during the war between Joseon and Japan (1592-1598). This made the lifespan and generation of underground Taoists nothing different from normal people, and no Taoists of the old times survived as of 2010s, modern days. Thus, the members of current SH-KO have a way of modern thinking, as modern people. There is no ridiculous guys such as "Confucian Man" or "Taoistic Woman."
The members do not have only "specialties" as their ability. The specialty means their favorite art, not the sole one. Most of them can perform thaumaturgy higher than basic fundamentals.

The Wanderer's Library is an extradimensional space with numerous entrances to various parallel realities. SH-KO have constructed their headquarter around one of them, and then made their HQ into another extradimensional space which is connected to the baseline dimension. Just like this.
The HQ is pleasant and as big as typical city library. The Ways to SH-KO HQ are hidden in various methods, just like the Ways of other Serpent's Hands.
There is no regional or local office. Because they can access the HQ from anywhere through the Ways. Agitpunkts are established operation by operation and abandoned when the purpose was fulfilled.
The members do not always stay at the HQ. Most of them have their house or occupation at the baseline dimension. They enter the HQ via the Ways when they perform SH operations or any other reasons that it is needed. Exceptively, Hong Heu-ji stays and lives at HQ at most of her times.

Violence:

SH-KO do not want to harm civilians (at least, they make efforts). We can say that they are "chaotic good" of the DnD system.
However, they are thorough against agents of the paranormal world such as the Foundation or GOC, and able to be cruel as occasion demands.
Being a secret society with direct democracy, most of the members know the situation of their organization. Thus dropout can never be allowed. The absconder is considered as the betrayer, and the betrayer can be "terminated" for the safety of the organization.

Politicality:

SH-KO has official political orientation: Anarcho-syndicalism.
This orientation was developed through cooperation with IWW or RVC during the colonial era. So SH-KO inquires how to make reality better practically (according to the ideology of syndicalism), and how to harmonize it with the liberation of the capables, which is the cause of the Serpent's Hand.
You do not have to inspect anarcho-syndicalism in detail and make its members an ideological crusader to write an article featuring SH-KO. Just keep in mind that there are speeches and behaviors which may not be done by the members of SH-KO.

Relation with other GoIs:

Serpent's Hand: Dinodon's Hand is affiliated with Serpent's Hand. Though they sometimes may have different opinions on certain topics. They have close relationships with the Hands in Ireland (thanks to the personal network of Morríghan), Finland (thanks to the personal network of Nykänen), and Japan.
the Foundation: Dinodon's Hand call the Foundation "the Jailors", as other Serpent's Hands do. But they avoid the Foundation as far as possible because they do not want to perform two-frontal warfare between GOC and the Foundation.
Beyond Entropy: Dinodons do not agree with the ideals of B.E., and even despise them. To Dinodon's Hand, B.E. is some kind of paranormal hippies.
The Black Queen: They know that the Black Queen assumes hostile attitude against the Foundation. They put distance between her and themselves by the policy not to provoke the Foundation first.
Global Occult Coalition: Antagonize extremely, just as other Serpent's Hands do. Especially GOC Far East is their main adversary and shootout is common when both parties encounter. Main enemy.
Marshall, Carter and Dark Ltd.: The Dinodon's hand actively obstruct the expansion of MC&D's business of anomalous human trafficking into the Korean Peninsula. Secondary main enemy.
IJAMEA: Former archenemy when they cooperated with RVC.
Oak Troupe: No direct relation, but Dinodon's Hand helps the Troupe sometimes when the Troupe is in trouble.
Magierakademie: Occasionally, Dinodon's Hand send some of their promising members to Germany to study.
