</details>### Backstory

---

Fang was born in a royal family that valued tradition over change. They were destined to be the heir of their immense wealth and royal-ness.

But, they declined.

Fang yearned to learn how to fight after hearing about martial arts tournaments that popped up throughout the land. And so, they'd run away from home on a journey of self discovery and gettin' stroncc.

A while would pass until arriving in Crossroads. It would be at this convenient time that the 2021 tournament had taken place! :O

It was something they'd never seen before...

Inspired and absolutely rabid about it, it had solidified Fang's decision to be a part of such a beautiful phenomenon.

After getting a job as a Crossguard, Fang strives to help any competitors in the tournament and witness legendary battles in the making.

### Personality

---

Fang can be overwhelmingly friendly and welcoming when one has the pleasure of meeting them. They're always interested in knowing one's origins and whereabouts, and thinks of how they'd fare in combat.

They can often be seen doing the exact opposite of what a Crossguard should be doing: taking a ton of snack breaks/going out to eat, nerding out on the latest up-and-coming competitor(s), or dozing on the job. They can get bored quickly and will walk around Crossroads to seek adventure. How they still have their job is a mystery.

When in combat, Fang becomes more serious/passionate and doesn't underestimate their opponents. They firmly believe that anyone is capable of potential, even stinky ones.

### Abilities

---

##### **Wingchun Fighting Style**

As a Crossguard, it's ones duty to help keep the peace in Crossroads. Fang's Wingchun is perfect to defuse fights almost instantly. Depending on who they're fighting, Fang can end brawls in mere seconds thanks to their rapid fire punches and elbow strikes.

Lin Wan Kuen (Chain Punch) -**「Flowing River Fists」**

Fang's signature and finishing move for a beat down. They release a barrage of flowing punches all focused at on the enemy's chest.

##### **Aura Detection**

Fang can sense the presence of auras in their vicinity and possibly gain detailed understanding about the auras they are sensing, including the amount/size of auras they are sensing and whether they are hidden.

##### **Sea Serpent Form -「Jiaolong the River Dweller」**  


This form is only used for mega emergencies.

In Jiaolong form, Fang can fly for short periods of time, breathe highly pressurized streams of water (that can cut steel), and can create floods. They can swim at speeds of up to 65-70 mph underwater.
