All of them do, that's why there is a problem ;D!<br/>Ah well, let's leave it for the edit. Now, check the rest.<br/><br/>Li San Shan/Wencheng (Li "Three Mountains"/"Greatness is born", name given by his father obviously)<br/>The thief from Beijing, master of the chopsticks ;D<br/><br/>Description<br/>Of above average height and form, he moves with surprising agility. The man known as Li wears a short, close-fitting blue chang pao, and closefitting pants. His clothes are worn yet clean, and above all, unremarkable, while his hair is set in a bun held by silver pins in the shape of snakes. Obviously, this should be his year of birth, for who why wear the animal otherwise, unless one is superstitious?<br/>That's possible, too. Most people don't get to know him for long enough to ask. He is a face in a sea of faces.<br/>Well, unless you are from Wulin, or you are into statecraft. Then you probably know about him.<br/>People in Wulin know about the "Li kuàizi" (Li's chopsticks). The Dagger Art of the Li family is known to be fast, natural and deceiving, like the movements of chopsticks.<br/>If you are into statecraft, you want to keep track of people who can go everywhere, bring anything, and probably kill anyone... although you don't mention this when dealing with them. The Li family takes pride in not being common killers. Sometimes, they have killed, when noticed. Some people even think that they allowed to be noticed in order to kill a target without losing face...<br/>And they take care not to mention this either. The Li family doesn't object at all to killing in revenge.<br/>Now, the scion of Li, wielding the Li kuaize, is young and not quite experienced. He had recently clashed with a magistrate of Qin/Zhao/Qi (pick one, GM!). It is within the tradition of Li family to help peasants, when they are oppressed...or they think they are. not only is it the law of Heavens, it is always better to have a place to hide in the country!<br/>Documents proving the magistrate guilty of corruption had been stolen and exposed. The magistrate suicided. Since he was a cousin of the First Minister's second wife, the latter was less than pleased.<br/>Not only wasn't Li Chui Xue afraid, he also made it public knowledge that he intended to steal the First Minister's daughter, known for her beauty in thousands li! Even if this was only a jest, the father contacted a well-known bodyguard to protect her.<br/>Li is already a man not known for empty threats, but who is he going to contact when facing the state's machine,<em>and</em>a martial elder?<br/><br/>Aspects<br/>Metal 3<br/>Water 4<br/>Fire 3<br/>Wood 3<br/>Earth 2 (10 XP)<br/><br/>Gift and Weakness<em>(only one of each will remain).</em><br/>Child of Shadows / Code of honour (Family codes), Wanted, Air of the Snake<br/>Chi: 18<br/>Passive Defence : 9<br/>Balance: 1<br/>Resistance: 5<br/>Breath of Life : 19 (7/5/4/2/1)<br/>Renown: 3<br/>Skills<br/>Daoshu (knives) 2=>3 (12XP), Dodging 2, Stealth 3=> (12XP), Meditation 1, Acrobatics 1, Perception 1, Seduction 1 (4XP), Calligraphy 1 (4 XP).<br/><br/>Taos<br/>Tao of the Hidden shadow (level 3/6points)<br/>Tao of the 6 directions (level 2/3 points)<br/>Tao of the Inner Eye (level 1/1point)<br/>Tao of the light step (level 1/1point)<br/><br/>Combat Techniques (starting ones are bolded)<br/>Daoshu:<br/>Level 1<br/>Direct hit (4XP),<strong>Two Weapons</strong><br/>Level 2<br/><strong>Mystification</strong><br/>Level 3<br/>Combination (12 XP)<br/><br/>Unless I'm really wrong, I have spent 58 XP, banking 2.<br/><em>(Yes, he is not a master of unarmed combat, and this is intentional. Qin is not a game about Shaolin masters anyway, and since there is war in the kingdom, most masters perfect the use of weapons.
