			This is three-fold.<br>
			First Tu Weilan’s family on his father’s side are traditional butchers and both of his parents worked as butchers before their standing started to rise. May of the upper classes still look down on him as peasants because of this.<br>
			Second, his brother, Tu Huang has joined a group of rebels/insurgents trying to overthrow the current Emperor and has earned the nickname ‘the Ravager’ because of his brutality. Many officials or victims of his brother or the insurgents may hold this against Bamboo Wei and the Tu family.<br>
			Finally, Bamboo Wei's mother is the daughter of the former Emperor, Xuan Diang. Emperor Xuan was a murderous tyrant and was deposed by the current Dynasty 30+ years ago. Those who know this secret may move against Bamboo Wei... or try to use him in their schemes.

			From a young age, Weilan was driven to raise the standing of the Tu family and make it great enough to atone for the sins of Emperor Xuan Diang. His older brother Weifeng was the opposite. He felt that it was his birthright to rule the Empire, so he even adopted the generational name Hu (which would have been his name if the Xuan Dynasty hadn't fallen) and the last Emperor's given name. He now goes by the name Huang.<br>
			As Wei grew, so did his determination to rebuild his family's legacy. While this has helped him improve his family's position, it also drives him to make more self-serving decisions.<br>

			After being attacked multiple times and losing several carts of bamboo, Weilan began questioning his way of life. WHere the only two choices to be a victim or a tyrant? An Old Hermit that lived in the forest near the Bamboo farm saw Weilan near the river one day, struggling with his place in the world. The hermit began to teach Weilan the Bamboo Crane style. Just because one does not seek violence does not mean one must fall victim to it.<br>
			Although there were more defeats along the way, Weilan learned kung fu eagerly, and studies with his aging master whenever he returns to the farm.<br>

			Both Xia and Shang. Warrior and Trader. As his kung-fu grew, bandits no longer attacked his caravan. Weilan now began to leave the wagons to the drivers and roam the countryside on his own. This allowed him to find new deals or trading partners, but also to prevent violent raiders or brutal government officials from bullying the people of the land. <br>
			Armed with his trusty bamboo bo staff, this is how he earned the nickname, Bamboo Wei.

-Jiujin or "Nine Gold" Zhong is named after the gold-stamped but roughly-textured Joss Paper burnt to honour the spirits of loved ones. Dutiful soldier daughter of a military family, after a few years of military service she was recruited into the Imperial intelligence service and rigorously trained as an operative, grounding her in both Kung Fu and surveillance. She also became adept at infiltration and information-gathering: her skill at passing as a dimwitted servant or cleaner made her effectively invisible. She is a '''''Woman easily overlooked'''''.
