Fang Li has always been stubborn focused, so it is no surprise she did not become a "proper girl", and it is no surprise how she came to join the Little Forest Sect. Born to a village under the thumb of a greedy minister, she was quick to agree that the love of money is a cause of great wickedness - and she was quite in love with the idea of living in a small fortress, learning the ways of Kung Fu and sweeping scum from the world.

But still, a monastery is no place for a woman, much less a girl of her age, no matter her unbound virtue! And so, every day from fourteen to eighteen, she hurried through her farm-girl chores and slipped away to the monastery. There, she chopped wood, carried water, and praised the monks for their wisdom, might and glory. She was too well-meant and helpful to turn away, but too persistent in her ceaseless praise to simply endure, and so after four years, she was inducted as a new "brother". No great efforts were made to hide her gender, but no efforts were made to confirm it.

It is said that she passed the trials with all the grace of an avalanche, She fell into a pit with walls lined with spears, and drove them into her body to climb out. She was presented with eight goblets carved with trigrams, knowing that four were poison - and she drank all of them, then wrestled a tiger. These were unorthodox answers, but she endured, and the Bronze Arahats could find no flaw in her virtue.

It was a common joke that she learned so many years of Kung Fu in so few by skipping the discipline parts, and to see her fight, none would deny it. When she was not sparring with spears and swords and hammers, she was sparring with words, asking her brothers if the lack of desire was desirable, and if this, too, was harmful. They had no answer, but Fang Li was nothing if not stubborn focused, and so, with the blessings of the masters, she wished her brothers peace and departed to seek wisdom.

But not before leaving the minister's home in ruins, and sending his battered guards to the monks, that they, too, might be wise one day.

There is no better place to learn of desire than in the East, where, it is said, enough coin can buy Heaven if one knows the right alley, and so there is no better place to harden oneself against the evils of the world!

She may be calm or furious, but she is always relentless and bullheaded, only giving ground when that ground is on fire, and sometimes not even then. Every blow is intended to break something, or someone, every defense is intended to forcefully deny the enemy's progress. While she fights like this, Fang Li regenerates an extra point of chi ''(Minor Breath Hyperactivity)''.
*Second Condition TBD
