Female

Tanto

Fangs of Orochi
Weapon of choice:
Shuang Gou - Used in conjunction with each other. Right hand is primary, left is secondary.
Skills/abilities/powers:
Agility - While quickness is not the aspect of her master, she takes great pride in her finely honed skill in moving faster than most under the banner of Orochi. She can dodge most projectiles from arrows to knives and is able to easily dodge any sword she can see.
Water Healing - Whenever she is in contact with water, she may use it to heal any wounds she has sustained. If the wound is fatal, it will not be healed completely, but she will be stabilized. The healing is slow and requires her bare skin to touch the water, and it does not take away the pain from the wound. If no water is around, she may use the water in her body to heal herself, but this comes with the extreme risk of dehydration, which can result in loss of consciousness, or even death.
Chinese Martial Training - Before she left China, she was taught and mastered several styles of kung fu. Her main style of a heavily modified version of Northern Shaolin that places more emphasis in her swords than her kicks, but retains the acrobatics and the high-level legwork.
Knowledge of the Chinese Language - Naturally, she is fluent in Mandarin Chinese, as well as the Wu, Yue, and Min dialects. She can distinguish between and translate the language just as naturally as she speaks Japanese.
Personality:
Xian is, to all, a caring individual. She does not harbor any resentment or ill will. She holds no grudges towards anybody, even her mortal enemies. She refuses to even consider taking up the sword against those who will not take up the sword against her, but that is not due to her morals. Under the surface of her kind, caring, and righteous shell lies an inexhaustible lust for combat. An urge to take the life of her opponent so that she may be satisfied. It is only fun if there is the risk of failure, and she will not fight without such a risk unless commanded by Orochi himself.
Brief bio:
Xian was born to a Chinese woman and a Japanese man. She loved both of them very much, but she was left without love in return. Her father didn't even know she existed, and her mother wished she didn't. She was intentionally left starved, unclothed, and unacknowledged for the better part of her first eight years of life. Once she turned ten, she left that household and traveled China, learning the ways of combat. At twenty, she left China altogether, traveling to Japan in hopes of finding her father. She searched for three whole years, doing many things she will say to this day she is not proud of in order to find him. Eventually, she did.
The second he saw Xian, he was reminded of her mother. He knew exactly who Xian was. He knew exactly what he wanted to do. Blood was spilt on that empty country road by the sea, and Xian learned the joy of killing. A year was spent slaughtering in the streets, but she was never satisfied. Only when they fought back was she happy... So she approached the Fangs of Orochi. She harbored no loyalty for her master at first, but as she grew into her thirties and adopted the persona of a kindhearted woman, she adopted the same devotion as all the others.
Other:
-Every life she takes, she has a tally mark carved into her back. Currently, she is up to near one hundred lives taken.
-She hates to drink, but loves being drunk.
-She will do literally anything for money.
