THE PERSONALITY
Brought up in an environment where lineage, power, hierarchy and nobility are essentials, she grew up with such egotistical qualities built in; it should not be taken wrong however, she is more than capable of turning on the charm and making herself seem the humble, modest woman, most men of the age like. With ease the relative of Yuan Shao, can easily put on a show to misguide, misdirect, or otherwise fool another person.[/size]
She doesn’t classify herself as a scholar, leaving the workings of history to the ‘beardy weirdy’ characters, as she likes to label them in her head, no in fact her main strength that has gained her some foothold and potential for recognition in Wei is her astute political mind and her sometimes unorthodox methods.
She has a nice side and she does often show it, not someone to walk around with a cloud of negativity or malice above her head. She gets what she wants, but most times she is content to smile, laugh, giggle and be friendly; for those reasons she is a likeable figure, but one you should trust at your possible peril: she has already stabbed one person in the back; a physical meaning, not a metaphorical one.
Finally onto killing: she does not see it as anything to shout about, nor to want to do, but she has done so and did so only with absolutely no other possible solution. The act made her physically vomit, she did not converse with many people for many weeks and the entire ordeal left her shook up; whether or not the same outcome would happen again should she kill once more is completely unknown, but she does not wish to find out.
THE APPEARANCE
Her relative unknown persona in the wider world has lowered her down the metaphorical opinion polls of most attractive female in China. Her long black hair is near-perfect in its health and upkeeping and flows naturally down her shoulders. Her face offers no deterrents in the form of spots, moles of blemishes; instead she is almost faultless and has attractive features and a beautiful smile to back it up.[/size]
She has a slim frame and stands at roughly five foot five, around average, or slightly above for her sex and age. On that body she will wear mostly courtly outfits and gowns, rarely putting her armour on, an article she does not wear purely because of her family’s disapproval.
THE HISTORY
The young woman, known as Yuan Li, grew up in Ye from around the age she could walk and talk. It was a land with much influence of the Yuan family and whilst she was a somewhat more distant relative to the highest Yuan of the clan (Shao), she was treated often like a daughter would be, with respect, guidance and responsibility.[/size] [/blockquote]
She never had an official role to play in the administrative affairs of Yuan Shao, whilst he was in power of his own, due to her age prior to his fall from grace, but later on, when he worked for Cao Cao, she gave some tips and tricks, the wise, but still listening head of the family could take in and use.
At the age of 23, she looks to solidify herself as not just a background figure, helping out the characters of her better known family, instead she wants her own legacy and her own actions being credited to her. Seeking out Yuan Shao, Cao Cao or someone else of considerable reputation and influence, she hopes to gain an entry into the Wei courts and make her mark on the world, for better or worse.
