Personal history

Trail of Live. As a child I've been selected amongst many promising candidates to gain the honour to train in the Temple of the Winds. I'm devoted to my Shi'Fu and I was proud to be his student. As long as I can think I was part of the temple. One day when I was still young he took in an alien foster child he named Xīn hé. As kids we became friends, but were always competing. I was an aspiring student capable of feats my peers could not even dream of. It was always clear to me that it is my destiny to become the next Shi'Fu. The day the trails arrived Xīn hé bested me. I always felt myself to stand above him because of his foreign origin. However, this day did not humble me in face of my defeat, instead in a surge of jealousy and thoughtlessness I stole the "Winds of Contempt" and flied from the Kitai island. My temple brethren were sent after me lead by Xīn hé to return this most sacred artefact. I'm torn between the duty to my master, the shattered friendship of Xīn hé and the shame I brought upon myself which still prevents me to return and face the consequences.

Kensei Weapon

Need to mention Baraklin's Hammer

Listening to Xúnzhǎo pìgu

I recognized, that in our last battle I couldn't fight with the proper elegance, missing what should have been sure hits. But I feel there is potential in Xúnzhǎo pìgu (Spear), a potential which is yet untabbed. The notion that there is beauty even in the misses and close calls of my new setup. I decided to spend some time training, and studying the weapon and its powers. After several hours deep meditation, I realized that I had approached it from the wrong side. I was forcing Xúnzhǎo pìgu into my style, while as I should let it guide my movements, delivering myself to like a leave into a gust of wind.
