Characters

A brief description of the characters and their motives (as described by the players):

Miro Sung - Mick
Miro grew up on the streets of the mountain city Korshen, the city guards the northern pass to the Empire. He knows little of his family having been orphaned at a very young age when his family was killed in thier beds by unknown assailants. Being on his own from the age of 4 he learned the ways of the street and fought to survive. He is small and lithe, moving with the grace of a cat. To others he often appears frail but he is capable of taking care of himself. He has never had a anyone to care for him or to care about and he has been restlss and started moving around recently. Now he has found himself involved in the struggles of House Song. He doesn't understand it, but he has taken a liking to the stolid soldier and the samurai he serves. Some of the others though bear watching and seem a bit odd to him.

Fong Fa Hong - Tom
Fa Hong comes from a proud and semi-known farm family from the north of the Song province. At a young age, Fa Hong joing the Order of Yang, a small but somewhat known religious sect. Mostly following the philosophies of the ways of Chaos. His Order is very small and does not have a lot of people, but they do align themselves with the Yellow Temple. Fa Hong is eager to climb the ranks of the Order and the events of late will help him gain the skills and experience needed to do such a thing. That and the Order of Yang aren't fond of the house of Yung, and favor Song on many matters.

Mirumoto Long - Tim
Mirumoto is a proud Samurai who studies the Dragon style. He is the son of a proud noble from the Song province. He is a sworn retainer for House Song. He is keeper of the Long family Daisho “Dragons Talon”.

The Prince of Sparrows - Mike
Like the Yellow Priest, the Prince of Sparrows sometimes fails to show proper respect to Song Kami. His spells are powerful as are his ability to fly and speak with birds when he deigns to use them.

The Other Monk - Lou
The Other Monk spends much of his time sweeping, although some experts say he doesn't pay enough attention to detail. It is rumored that much of what he sweeps winds up under the rug, although at least once it wound up under the ground, about 6' under the ground...

The Yellow Priest - Tom
The Yellow Priest is fond of standing on bamboo when there is danger afoot.
He does not know his place and speaks when he should not.
Someday he will be just like Leng and have a racing stripe on his robes to show how "quick" he is.

Acu the shapeshifter. - Villian
A notorious Wu Jen known for his mastery of shapeshifting and his wickedness. He is known to cast spell of the 4th order and to take delight in the slaughter of others with flashy high powered spell. Because of his use of snake for spys and his vast age it is belived that Acu may be a Prince of snakes. Acu is also known for his hunger to have power over others, he is fond of summoning spell, haveing lackys to boss around, and he once ruled a Sandian Kingdom untill he was overthrown. Acu now seems to be in service to House Chung, although his motivation seems to be to get a hold of a magical puzzel box that was in the possesion of House Song.

Hansu - Steve
A fierce warrior who wields a deadly nagimaki. He is very tall, big enough to be one of the Yung giants himself. He shaves his head save for a long pony tail and has a penetrating stare (or a blank look - he's not the brightest of men, though he is one of the strongest). He is the son of a farmer and he was conscripted into the army because of a portent he has never understood. He found the work much easier than farming and so is now glad to be of service.
