Reign of the Nine-Tailed Fox

Idly Pan Chao watched and listened as the beast-women performed their displays and removed his vandal paint-job from the statue. It seemed that both the cheeky one and the arrogant one both wanted it gone. He kept a fairly sturdy position as he listened to the dialogue that was transpired and explanations that were given.

"Tch." Pan's lips pulled towards the left as he wagged his index finger towards Tsubame. Quickly he cocked his head towards Tsubame. "I don't worship foxes." Pan Chao firmly stated before continuing on "You seem to think I cared or should or that I even worship that Goddess or whatever you want to call it." Pan Chao sneered before he snorted loudly and hocked a loogie towards the statue. "What I worship isn't your business."

With a Yawn, Pan Chao stretched his arms upwards and began stretching. He peered towards Luo, "You all might've been aimlessly wandering, but I'm a businessman." Chao kept his arms up for a little longer before lowering them down. "And I don't take kindly to work getting interrupted because someone can't deliver a simple missive for me, so I can get plans on the up and up."

And that's when the fox vomited up a trinket. Well that alongside asking him a very obvious question.

"Obviously vandalizing." Pan Chao answered with a smirk. Interlacing his fingers together Pan Chao squatted down. Chao glanced from side to side before his lips pulled towards the left again. His eyes narrowed and he unfurled his fingers and hung them next to his side. "Tch."

"So besides vomiting up that bauble, you're gonna what, just name a couple of henchmen that..." Pan Chao pointed towards the Pumpkin, "Other people probably have a clue about." He shook his head and waggled his right index finger. "Gotta have to do better than that. How about starting off with an apology."

With that Pan Chao arose from his squat.

Reign of the Nine-Tailed Fox

Quickly Pan Chao's hands clenched together into a fist. As the fox creature beamed a message into his head, his teeth immediately gnashed and his brow furrowed. With a distinctive scowl the man pushed towards through to the fox statue on display. His eyes focused upon the statue for a moment before he unfurled his left hand. With his still bloodied and multi-colored ink stained hands, Pan Chao began to vandalize the statue by smudging on a Fu Manchu down the snout of the statue. Once he finished in his task he glared at the fox which called itself Ichiru.

"So you just fully expect for people who want a fox dead to trust what you have to say? I mean if you were a duck or something, maybe people would that story you just told." Pan Chao bluntly stated. Chao shook his head as he sneered at the fox, "And y'know interrupting people in their day to day life is poor manners." Pan Chao rolled his neck around as he peered upon the handiwork of his vandalism. "Especially without asking whether or not people had business. You should've sent a messenger instead." Amused by his craft he smiled as he glanced towards the fox yet again, "You'd best hope for your sake you have a real good reason for anyone to not just trust you, but not attack you on sight."

He glanced towards Lieu Lei and spoke calmly, "Keep a good hand on that, might need it real soon." Then his focus was towards the man with the ears of a beast. "Skinned. Don't want to waste the head." And finally the monster that spoke the tongue of his people. He walked towards Dafei while keeping a good eye on the fox. "Oh? Built by who? And where?"

Reign of the Nine-Tailed Fox

@Polaris North - Right I'm gonna throw a quick question out at you. How does your character know that Lieu Lei is a half-dragon and that The Expendable is a Yurei?

And quick edit, @Hayazo how does Ichiru know that Lieu Lei is a dragon?

Reign of the Nine-Tailed Fox

THWACK! Contact was made from the right elbow of an attacker to chest of the unsuspecting clean-shaven man dressed in loose fitting and fairly ornate robes. As the victim of the strike began to stumble back he dropped a bindle onto the dirt floor below. The sensation from the drop caused the bindle to unravel and clatter revealing some steamed buns, a few stone trinkets designed like tools a small silk pouch and ink containers which shattered apart and splattered onto the assorted items.

The noise made did not deter the attacker from the target who was just starting to come to his senses. Pan Chao quickly closed the gap with his target as he struck the front of his target's face using the right side of his closed right fist. Nostrils flared out as he swung his left elbow against at the chest. As Pan Chao was pushing onward with his continuous barrages. With his victim backed against the stone wall of this sanctum, Pan Chao clenched his teeth as he delivered a cross to his target's nose. This was the strike that caused the young man to just crumble down as Pan Chao kept on swinging. This particular onslaught continued for a few more moments before Pan Chao was satisfied.

Pan Chao smirked as he wringed his bloodied hands together as looked at the altar of this sanctuary. It was a simplistic display that consisted of a small table that had some lit candles around a currently empty bowl that was just underneath a time-worn painting which only had a field and a river visible upon it. Rummaging through the stone trinkets, Pan Chao smiled as he plucked one that appeared to look like a hook. It was quickly embedded inside the upper corner of the painting. Again he looked down at these spoils. Pan pawed his hands through the assorted colors of ink splat and smeared it across the painting warping the image into a multicolored swirls for a crude ocean.

"Your offerings have been accepted." Pan Chao stated towards the man as he gathered up the remaining items of value. "And they will continue to be accepted." He stated as he strolled out of the building to a trio of men standing patiently upon a dirt road. Approaching each man of the group individually Pan Chao began handing out the collected loot to all of them. "Haul it gigside." Pan Chao spoke as he glanced down the dirt road. "I shall be there momentarily." The group nodded and followed the instructions given as they went down the dirt road ready to store the loot.

Pan Chao stretched his arms upwards while glancing towards the way he spotted the robed man arrive from. Spotting a wooden building not too far away, Pan Chao smirked as he proceeded towards it. Once at the door Pan Chao slammed against it causing the door to give way and open. This was when the strange occurrence happened, and Pan Chao was not inside the building which he was expecting, but rather in a forest and near yet another and more populated shrine.

Reign of the Nine-Tailed Fox

Pan Chao

Name: Pan Chao
Age: 40
Race: Human

Appearance

Personality: Pan is quite simply a generally unpleasant individual. On the surface he is cantankerous and driven by the twin vices of greed and wrath. However these traits belies some inner virtues, as he is also guided by the virtues of familial piety and valor. In short while he is an ill-tempered covetous furious human being, he does value the importance of family and acting courageously, and tries to keep both his virtues and vices in check.

History: Many heroes hold tales of simple upbringings. Regardless on your view of Pan Chao as a hero or not, he held this simple upbringing. For Chao was born among the peasant farmers in a series of rice paddies which were on the far outskirts of the coastal city of Namchon. Early childhood life was monotonous and uneventful, as Chao learned how to properly harvest and care for rice. The most interesting events that happened in his childhood was when merchants would occasionally come from Namchon to get rice to sell, and talk about events that occurred in the city. The young boy found himself fascinated to hear the stories these wealthy men told and thus the seeds of wanderlust were placed in his brain.

However he did not act upon these desires until he was in his early teens. Chao knew in his heart that he could no longer accept the tedious life of a farmer. And thus in the dead of night he fled towards Namchon. The peasant boy was enamored with the plethora of options that were now available to him. And so Chao began to indulge in the ways of the City. Of course without any money to properly gain these services, he found himself in many brawls which he found himself on the losing end of. However during one of these brawls Pan Chao managed to amuse a sailor who directed him to his employer.

The next step of his life as he grew from a older teenager to a younger man was full of heavy lifting, countless expeditions across the sea, sometimes for fishing, sometimes to transport cargo, and countless roughhousing in bars and sometimes upon the ship. All the while Pan Chao grew bitter about how much he earned in comparison to the men who were directing these operations, and of course the criminal organizations that operated in his preferred bars. This is when Chao had yet another revelation; he had to become a criminal leader. And he was not going to be able to achieve this goal as a simple sailor.

When the ship he was serving on arrived back to Namchon after finishing its delivery, Pan Chao quit his life as a sailor and began to delve into the criminal world. Thus the Rainbowfin Anglers was born, as Chao gathered up some fellow disgruntled sailors city dredges who weren't officially aligned with any gangs. Pan took the money he had earned from sailing and invested it in a run-down bait-shop which served as the first front of operations, where he could start some simple rackets. Pan Chao was eager to establish his organization in the eyes of the underworld.

And this is where Anjou influences the story through his minion Yu Ru. Namchon was crime-ridden and this was not going to be tolerated much longer. Yu Ru was appointed as the new Namchon Administrator in order to bring across swift discipline to those who opposed the rule of Anjou. And to help him in this task he was sent alongside a crew of incorruptible guards. No one was going to stop the criminal expansion of the Rainbowfin Anglers, so Pan Chao swore to not only remove Yu Ru from Namchon but to dethrone Anjou for this insult. However dethroning Yu Ru would be difficult if caught. He alongside part of the Gang would be out of Namchon to avoid getting caught and to start gaining new resources, men, and to expand so Chao can dethrone Yu Ru and usurp Anjou for honor and gains for his criminal enterprise.

- Vicious Wave Style: The Vicious Wave Style is a martial arts style that focuses primarily on close-up hand and arm techniques with occasional short leg kicks. Attacks based in this style are focused on quick and ruthless barrages.

- Criminal Leadership: While not quite a prestigious organization yet, Chao is the leader of the Rainbowfin Anglers and has their loyalty and service. Not to mention that as the commander of this organization he is knowledgeable and familiar about the practices and doctrines of the underworld.

- Seafarer: Chao is versed in sea-bound voyages. He knows his way around the structures of various ships, how to operate the structures such as sails, and how to navigate upon the sea.

- Agricultural Knowledge: People who grow up tending to the rice paddies tend to learn about how to cultivate and care for those crops. Pan is no exception when it comes to this and as such he knows about these things.

Roger.

Reign of the Nine-Tailed Fox

Maybe influence causing the seas to become harsher than usual. Sailing for legal or unlegal matters just aren't as profitable now, and not as many sea animals in the habitat. Yeah probably a good way to go about it.

Reign of the Nine-Tailed Fox

Right, so it appears it is notJapan then? Well if that's the case, I'll have to tweak my thing then cause when I initially made the dude, I was thinking it was gonna be in notChina that the Evil Fox Emperor was ruling over.

So I'll probably need to mull over that. Maybe criminals from over there started to cause havoc for Namchon's local piracy.
