==Merits & Flaws== ===Enemy 3=== '''Ei-Zen Hon''' is a Chosen of Endings no more than two centuries old who went ronin after a series of disastrous missions left him with wounds both bodily and mental. As his hiding place from the Bureau he choose an old and secret manse fatefully claimed by He Who Makes The Rivers Cry, who was teaching his new apprentice there. The Elder No Moon's powers healed the physical scars but more than anything else it was the friendship of Jian Chu who was also recovering from great mental trauma that helped the unfortunate Endbringer cling to sanity and find back to himself. In time they became more than friends and when the young No Moon told him of his failings one evening Ei-Zen Hon began to look for a way to help his lover in turn. And perhaps the Sidereals are indeed the greatest masters of the martial arts for where all his previous teachers had failed Ei-Zen Hon found a solution and the right style for Jian Chu. But their happiness was not meant to last. As the Infallible Messengers describing the consequences of the Reckoner's absence on Fate and Creation became more and more dire he realized that he could not avoid taking his place among the Five-Score Fellowship again. Upon his return he - and worse yet, his own sifu - realized, what he had done: In a moment of weakness he had betrayed Bureau secrets to an outsider. There could be only one solution that would simultaneously hone his conviction and salvage Ei-Zen Hon's position, the ancient Sidereal told the Endbringer: Li Jian Chu had to die by his own hand. And so it is that with great regret Ei-Zen Hon has begun to pursue his former lover's death. Nothing can be allowed to stand in the way of duty, thus is the lonely life of a Sidereal. ===Valor Vice 1=== Although he has given up many of his fears during his initiation into sorcery one fear remains with Jian Chu since his terrifying experiences in the haunted forest: Though he is a great admirer of beauty in its many forms there are people and entities that approach too close to perfection for comfort, that recall in him the horror of the Fair Lord and his inhumanly beautiful hunter-tormentors. His courage fails him in those situations. Thankfully, perverse though it may sound, it is rare to find such beauty in this fallen age. ===Greater Curse 2=== Among the previous bearers of Jian's anima is counted Marzak of Many Colors, a notable researcher into the nature of the Wyld. Following the Ursurpation he came to tragic fame by being one of the first Lunars to succumb to Wyld influence, lose his Caste and descend into chimerism. By the time this was discovered nothing was left of the one proud and noble Marzak but a gibbering protean mass without a shred of humanity left in it. Other chimerae have been observed since then but few ever progressed as far as he did. It was his unhappy fate along with the other early cases of chimerism that drove the other No Moons to begin the research that would culminate in the protection of the Moonsilver tattoos. But despite Lytek's loving restoration and the caste-fixing that was bestowed on every following incarnation the Exaltation of Marzak of Many Colors still carries damage, a certain tendency toward instability, to this day.
