== Background ==

Lived in France during childhood. Always liked writing and learning languages, as time went by the interest grew for more unusual languages. How lucky it was to find books that explained what was happening with him, magic powers and all. How lucky indeed, only if he had time to learn more before "something" came for the book, maimed him, killed his father and sent his mother to a mental institution.

The next years were filled with sadness and regret, until two men offered him a chance to walk again and to improve himself. They offered training and explanations, all they asked for was an oath. Little did he know how that would change him, but if life gave him a chance he would take it, even if that dreaded concoction tasted like rotten trash with sand.

Basic training was finished and Chance had to leave. Back to Europe and looking for trouble, Chance ended up in Germany following news of a creature that forced men to give him their daughters. Truth was that at one point this creature paid for the women to live there for a year and rarely would they share a bed. But this creature was losing its conscience, being afraid to hurt the girls it stopped allowing them there. In fact a lesser vampire was doing this to Jess, a weird shapshifter. Without Jess paying greed fathers, soon the people became more and more intolerant against him. Jess repented and with Chance they almost died trying to get rid of the vampire, later they would learn it was a Black Court spawn. Fire was set to Jess' house and they ran east...

'''Guest star in Sun Ching's:''' Something shiny has washed up on our shores 
You run, and you run, but so do your problems. You stop at a bar, and the bar gets set on fire, well at least not before meeting a hottie. Give her a "see you later" and keep running. Run until the night comes and you reach a monk reciting mantras and whatnot. A woman was at his side, saying almost nothing and what she said sounded only like noises. Huh, maybe you can stay for a while and listen. Maybe your, not so human, companion can be a freaking curious bastard and end up freeing a crazy wild spirit. Say you are sorry, give your contact info, promise you will be back to help. But you still have to run, because your traps are not ready yet and the day when prey becomes predator is still not here.

'''Guest star in Alexander Bishop's:''' Filling the Void 
How lucky that things in China have been cheap! Who cares if you don't sleep enough? Reinforcements are not coming, not that Chance really needs it, he just needs a little more time and an opportunity. No time to stop here and there and help others, he has to run. And he ran, until he found a couple Red Court vampires, and they are never up to something good, even more so if there is more than one. So Chance stops, brings his sword and starts his hunt. It led him to a church, a place monsters and men were bringing violence. So he brings out another sword, because innocent blood is a good reason to stop. Such stupidity, to think he had a chance. Thank the freaking Templar that was there, or all this running would have been for nothing. Chance resumes running, not before a question from Jess in German: "Never imagined you lobbing a man's head. I thought you only used one sword, why two?" The answer was quite cryptic: "They are both for monsters."

===Themes and Threats===
*This City is Neutral in all Foreign Affairs (Theme): In the ongoing conflicts in the Supernatural world, Hong Kong is considered to be neutral ground for all parties, per decree of the Jade Court. No fighting between major factions is supposed to occur here. This makes it a popular place for supernaturally attuned trying to avoid the attention of the White Council or the western Vampire Courts. And it makes it a center of espionage for the same groups.

*East Meets West (Theme): In addition to being the meeting point of eastern and western culture in the mortal realm dating back to the British Colonial Era, Hong Kong is also the central point where the borders of the Fairy Realms and the Chinese Heavens and Hells in the NeverNever, and where the Eastern Jade Court is at its most public.

*Something is About to Upset This Uneasy Peace (Threat): Tensions have been growing in the back alleys of Hong Kong in recent months amongst the supernatural communities; and everybody’s on edge. People know something is coming, but nobody knows what. It’s even been observed by mortals, though they blame the international situation and the global economy.

Background

Unlike some in the supernatural world, Tien was raised into his heritage for as long as he could remember. The offspring of oine of the great Celestial Dragons, he was tutored by Tashi and Feng, two powerful spirit servants of his father. While his childhood wasn't entirely different than any other child of privilege, there were times where the differences were all-too-clear. While he lacked for nothing, he was also reminded that his destiny was to become the God-Emperor of mankind in his father's footsteps, and any failure was a failure against the future of the world itself. Whether that was actually true or not was never mentioned. Tien was mentored in the arts of war and leadership, which he greatly enjoyed, though the concept of being sent into an arranged marriage like a piece of cattle for power's sake was a little mortifying. In all things, Tien's primary concern was to make his father proud, and live up to the destiny set out before him.

One of the many things Tien was taught the basics of by his mentors was the existence of other supernatural creatures, and the fact that they had their own abmitions, agendas and hierarchies, which might conflict with his own. Of course, being the scion of one of the Emperors of Heaven, this didn't seem like anything worth worrying over. Unfortunately, other forces didn't seem to agree that a young dragonspawn wasn't something to take note of. Only a year or two after Tien began to actually come into his legacy as a Dragon-scion, his home was attacked. he was unsure of what exactly came to collect him, but he was reasonably sure they were Jade Court vampires (though he has never been able to confirm it). The creatures made no secret of the fact that they were there for him, but his guardians sacrificed their lives to allow him time to escape. Alone and on his own in unfamiliar places, Tien fled for the closest large city, losing himself in the teeming masses of Hong Kong.

== Background ==

Lived in France during childhood. Always liked writing and learning languages, as time went by the interest grew for more unusual languages. How lucky it was to find books that explained what was happening with him, magic powers and all. How lucky indeed, only if he had time to learn more before "something" came for the book, maimed him, killed his father and sent his mother to a mental institution.

The next years were filled with sadness and regret, until two men offered him a chance to walk again and to improve himself. They offered training and explanations, all they asked for was an oath. Little did he know how that would change him, but if life gave him a chance he would take it, even if that dreaded concoction tasted like rotten trash with sand.

Basic training was finished and Chance had to leave. Back to Europe and looking for trouble, Chance ended up in Germany following news of a creature that forced men to give him their daughters. Truth was that at one point this creature paid for the women to live there for a year and rarely would they share a bed. But this creature was losing its conscience, being afraid to hurt the girls it stopped allowing them there. In fact a lesser vampire was doing this to Jess, a weird shapshifter. Without Jess paying greed fathers, soon the people became more and more intolerant against him. Jess repented and with Chance they almost died trying to get rid of the vampire, later they would learn it was a Black Court spawn. Fire was set to Jess' house and they ran east...

'''Guest star in Sim Ching's:''' Something shiny has washed up on our shores 
You run, and you run, but so do your problems. You stop at a bar, and the bar gets set on fire, well at least not before meeting a hottie. Give her a "see you later" and keep running. Run until the night comes and you reach a monk reciting mantras and whatnot. A woman was at his side, saying almost nothing and what she said sounded only like noises. Huh, maybe you can stay for a while and listen. Maybe your, not so human, companion can be a freaking curious bastard and end up freeing a crazy wild spirit. Say you are sorry, give your contact info, promise you will be back to help. But you still have to run, because your traps are not ready yet and the day when prey becomes predator is still not here.

'''Guest star in Alexander Bishop's:''' Filling the Void 
How lucky that things in China have been cheap! Who cares if you don't sleep enough? Reinforcements are not coming, not that Chance really needs it, he just needs a little more time and an opportunity. No time to stop here and there and help others, he has to run. And he ran, until he found a couple Red Court vampires, and they are never up to something good, even more so if there is more than one. So Chance stops, brings his sword and starts his hunt. It led him to a church, a place monsters and men were bringing violence. So he brings out another sword, because innocent blood is a good reason to stop. Such stupidity, to think he had a chance. Thank the freaking Templar that was there, or all this running would have been for nothing. Chance resumes running, not before a question from Jess in German: "Never imagined you lobbing a man's head. I thought you only used one sword, why two?" The answer was quite cryptic: "They are both for monsters."
