Character: Xing Cai
Series: Dynasty Warriors 7
Character Age: 19
Canon: In AD 183, war was beginning. This war would start the time period known as the era of the Three Kingdoms, where whole countries rose and fell within a century, heroes were born, and Koei found one of their greatest cash cows. Dynasty Warriors 7 is the most recent retelling of the Three Kingdoms, centered around the four kingdoms of Shu, Wei, Wu and the newest, Jin (though it's still technically a part of Wei in this game). All of the kingdoms have their own reasons toward trying to unite the land. Of course, Shu, the "heroes" of the era, fight for the people, for virtue and of course for BENEVOLENCE, started by their adored lord Liu Bei and his sworn brothers.
(Zhang) Xing Cai is the daughter of one of said sword brothers, the ferocious Zhang Fei. She is also absolutely nothing like him. Where he is tall, dark, muscular, and boisterous, she is petite, pale, slender and soft-spoken. Possibly one of the most inadvertantly terrifying presences in the Shu kingdom, Xing Cai is stern, unexpressive, and a total hardass, even when it comes to the second Shu emperor Liu Shan, her childhood best friend Guan Ping, and even her father. The few traits she inherited from him are likely his impatience and stubbornness, and she's unwilling to back down from any fight, even when it means her death. As both the wife and protector of the Emperor, she has some big duties to uphold and very large shoes to fill. And she would have done okay, if it weren't for Jin and those meddling kids!
Sample Post:
That was a warning strike - I won't miss next time, and I will not repeat myself. I don't have time for any of this nonsense, so the sooner that you provide me with information, the better for all of us. I have a sword and I am not afraid to use it. With me, you are nothing but prisoners of war. Shu is benevolent, but we will use force if necessary. I don't want to kill anyone, but I shall if you leave me no choice. I always knew that the men of Wei were spineless cowards who fled at the first sight of conflict, but this is the first time that has been quite literal. I don't know how you're even standing like that. I don't want to know. Somehow though, your lack of spine appears as though it's given you more courage than your commanders, and for that, I commend you.
However, courage alone won't allow you to beat me. You're lacking many, many things. I can't imagine why Wei would dare to put you on the frontlines, but I suppose that only highlights the difference between our countries. You're even lacking the able bodies to fight - perhaps a man can fight with one eye, but with one arm? One leg? Either they are stupid, cruel, or underestimate us. But you needn't worry - I won't kill a man who can't fight back - and I don't believe that trying to bite me is fighting back, not when your teeth fall out when you open your mouth - but I will ask you for information. Are you so hungry that you must resort to each other's brains due to lack of supplies? Then you are lucky that Shu is benevolent.
I can't believe this... allowing their recruits to feast on each other, ending out a rag-tag group of forces whose only merit is tenacity and little else... Wei's lack of benevolence never ceases to amaze me. I pity you. And I pity them. If this is the best they've got, then we should be marching upon the capital soon.
Of course, I have heard the stories of the capital's greatest warrior, Lady Marcy; a mercenary whose greatest tactic is distraction and humiliation, and who has not yet gone undefeated. But I warn you now, that there is nothing that will stand in the way of Shu's virtue. Even should she be a giant, with eight arms and eight legs, we shall... succeed.
... though perhaps I should find Lady Yue Ying's juggernauts.
