""There are five possible operations for any army. If you can fight, fight; if you cannot fight, defend; if you cannot defend, flee; if you cannot flee, surrender; if you cannot surrender, die. " Spoken by Sima Yi

Name: Sima Yi
Age: Late thirites
Gender: Male
Style: Original
Residence: Luo YangTHE PERSONALITY
Informative - shallow - possibly niave. Quick to anger....perhaps, but with logical reasoning. He is fast paced, and certainly over analyses things. He is neither good nor bad, at least not in the stereotypical black and white fonts that are often pictured about good or bad. He is loyal, understanding, compassionate - weak. But he is also ruthless, daring and strong. He does what has to be done, what must be done and he will go out of his way to make sure he is the one to do it, for who else could do it...but he.
Hopefully that paints a slight idea of his general attitude, of course it is rather difficult to summarize ones entire being in a few paragraphs...or one...in my case.THE APPEARANCE
Skinny, untarnished - chiseled. Sima Yi is no bulky warrior, though he is no feeble creature either. He is tall and handsome, but he scowls a lot, which is not so pretty. He also has a few over pronounced wrinkles around his eyes where he squints and scowls and yells and moans.
He wears basic garments, usually robes unless in a conflict - whereby he will adorn a set of leather armour with basic lamellar padding. The colors are always the same, purple, black and blue.THE HISTORY
Sima Yi started off as a hermit, and a son, though to who I cannot remember. He was born in Luo Yang, where he began his hermitry in peace and prosperity. His relative, a certain Sima Lang, joined a powerful and daring warlord called Cao Cao, often pronounced 'cow cow' but should really be pronounced as 'sao sao'. Anyway, Sima lang, after several years kept asking Cao Cao and Sima Yi to meet each other, but alas Cao Cao was busy and Sima Yi was...lazy.
So the two did not meet for many years. During that time Cao Cao expanded his reach and his forces, up until the point just after Guan Du, when - after reading a report about Cao Cao's glorious, yet tight ass victory that should have gone terribly wrong - Sima Yi, took it upon himself to seek this man out.
So he did, and then he said some clever words, probably like something along the lines of 'The grass is not always greener on the other side, but with mulch and topsoil it certainly can be' and then he joined Cao Cao's forces and became a starting strategist.
I am aware I am making a mockery of this bio, however - I believe it is far easier to speak of what is to come, then it is to re live the tales of the past. Most know of the events prior to our starting date, and I would rather not copy and paste text from WIKI as many others will do. So this is what I wrote, to hit the 3 paragraph quota, forgive me if I appear rude...I am just eagerly rushing through the character sheet so that I may begin my journey.
