Personality: Xi Shi is very eccentric. Having not learned much of current slang and having had manners never taught to her, Xi Shi comes off as odd do to her child-like wonderment and attitude towards things. She seems oblivious to much of what the world has to offer and values sword fighting like many people do things like social media: something she seems to never be able to stop herself and couldn't see a world without. unashamed of the majority of her actions and obnoxiously loud and chatty, she can easily get on a more refined person's nerves.

Background: Xi Shi was dropped at the door to a temple in china as an infant. the monks too this as a sign that the refusal of women in their temples was to finally come to an end and so they took her in, raised her as their own and as soon as she could stand on her own started to have her exercise and train. Begrudgingly the masters allowed her to train openly with them at the age of 6, but not believing her to be strong enough to fight with her fist they only taught her the basics of their hand to hand and forced her to learn entirely weapon-based combat. She trained day and night and her skill and determination proved extremely admirable, yet she became more and more of a nuisance in her anger of not being able to train with the others. She was told that she would be shown all she wants to learn under the circumstance that she goes to Claymore academy and returns as their number one pupil. Eager to show her worth and prowess she has entered.
keychain: At the bottom of the wooden blade is a talisman (fulu) made with red silk and embroidered with a golden yellow cloth to make their words. This is a Doaist talisman of strength that is tied around the hilt with leather strips with silverbells at the end if each strip. This functions much like the flail on the end of many weapons in shaolin.
Sword: Xi Shi has brought with her a weapon known affectionately as wu song, after a legendary pilgrim and warrior of china, know for defeating an 800Ib tiger with his bare hands.
This weapons is a reverse grip Zhanmadao, a long bladed Chinese sword with a wide blade, more than 4 inches thick. Hers is particularly thick and dulled in the middle, though extremely sharp towards the top. The weapon is made with a circular guard and the whole this is split down the middle to in fact be two swords that can efficiently be used as one when put together. The blade is made with a bright steel, the pummel and guard made for a tin alloy looking almost like gold. The grip is wrapped in silk to make it easier to grip without chaffing the hand. The whole thing is heavy and hard to use for anyone not trained in it's use.
Other things: Xi Shi has been eating much of the meals prepared in her temples, and as such she has had very little sugar up until now. This has caused her to gain a very intense sweet tooth.
