Thrice-Radiant Ping

Background

Thrice-Radiant Ping is the daughter of Flesh-Devouring Tiger, a warlord renowned for his prowess and savagery stationed at the border to fend off the irrepressible barbarians. Tiger was the senior student of the legendary Iron Wolf of Shen Zhou, the honorable scion of an ancient style of Kung Fu. Tiger killed his master and the other senior disciples, earning a fearsome name for himself and becoming the sole keeper of many of the styles secrets. Though it was never proven just how he did it, the fights were each in openly-declared matches that left no legal openings for official reprisal. He has leveraged that power into a highly-sought military position, commanding the forces that patrol the Great Wall against the roaming barbarian tribes that constantly seek to scourge the Empire.

Ping's mother is a barbarian princess of the steppes, granted as a bride to Flesh-Devouring Tiger to seal a peace treaty after he conquered their tribe to put a stop to their raids. Unwavering Sunflower has imparted her own brand of wisdom to her daughter, it is from her that Thrice-Radiant Ping has learned that one only becomes a victim if you allow yourself to. She has never been heard to complain and only historians know that she did not enter into her marriage out of love.

Ping herself was raised in one military camp or another as her father moved according to the needs of the situation. Early on she was raised mostly by her fierce-eyed but devoted mother, with the help of some of the camp followers. Once she reached the age of nine, Flesh-Devouring Tiger decided that she was old enough to begin passing his legacy on to the next generation and began her training in earnest. She had the best, if rather ruthless trainers to prepare her for what was to come.

Appearance

Ebon black hair cut collar-length frame fine-cut features highlighted by sharp eyes the color of green jade. She takes pride in a vibrant, clean-limbed physique toned through constant exercise. She fills out the uniform of the school pleasantly though not extravagantly. Despite an emphasis on a hard, brutal style of combat she has avoided the typical scars and callouses through the cultivation of her inner chi.

Thrice-Radiant Ping effects an outwardly-friendly, vivacious exterior that conceals a vicious dog-eat-dog philosophy.

(The art of her is from the manga Black Cat, written by Kentaro Yabuki. I don't own it etc.)
