Name: Xiahou Yuan
Age: 28
Gender: Male
Style: Original
Residence: Luo Yang
Personality:
Yuan is an laid back man, always looking for a humorous one liner. If someone insults him he would brush it off, unless it was by his old nemesis and rival Huang Zhong. Whenever he wins a battle or duel everyone is sure to hear about as Yuan can be found spreading the good news of his victory often embellishing the story. He has a strong sense of duty and loyalty to his cousin, and would never backstab his lord in any situation even if it would cost him his own life.
How does the character respond in situations? Put yourself in their perspective. Would your character talk back if he/she were insulted? Would they boast about their victories? Is he/she a completely self-serving backstabber? Or perhaps a chivalrous hero of the people? Develop your character with a sense of depth. Try not to merge your personality into your character - they will quickly become boring and bland. Remember what this site is about - good characters, good storytelling.
Appearance:
Image -
Is a middle aged man with some slight facial hair, often seen with a small grin on his face. He is a bigger man, not fat but a little chunky however people underestimate the strength he has. However by looking at his shape you wouldn’t guess that he is a fighter, but when it comes to battle he is a well experienced war veteran.
Apparel/Armour:
Look at image. It is mostly leather for easy mobility; however he has an iron plate gauntlet on his left hand, which can withstand a solid hit. Also when in battle he has a scarf that he usually wraps around his mouth so only his eyes are shown, it works well in windy and snow conditions as it keeps his face warm.
Weapon(s):
Short Sword Unfortunately
History:
In his early years, the Chinese population was plagued with hardships due to devastations caused by war and nature, and even the affluent Xiahou family was no exception. Xiahou's daughter had to go out to gather firewood to help out the family because their family income was not enough to buy firewood from the market.
In 190, Cao Cao started raising an army to join the coalition against Dong Zhuo, the tyrannical warlord who held Emperor Xian hostage in the imperial court. Xiahou heeded his call together with his older cousin Xiahou Dun, and was promoted to Administrator of Chenliu and Yingchuan. He stayed close with Cao to fight Dong's generals Li Jue and Guo Si around the area, but apparently seemed unable to suppress the ferocious Liang Province forces there. For subsequent years, Xiahou Yuan took care of Cao's logistics during his various regional campaigns.
