K'ung Fu-tzu (LL)

__NOTOC__
==K'ung Fu-tzu (lesser god)==
K'ung Fu-tzu, known as Confucius to westerners, is the Great Teacher. He is one of the great philosophers who advised the rival lords during the turbulent period of "The Hundred Schools." K'ung Fu-tzu tried to teach his fellow Chinese (especially rulers) to respect the wisdom of the past, to behave courteously and unselfishly, to be loyal to their family, friends, and countrymen, and to strive to do that which is right. By doing these things, he believed, life would become much more rewarding and serene for all men. Because of K'ung Fu-tzu's great deeds, Yen-Wang-Yeh sent the sage to eat the peaches of immortality when he presented himself at the First Law Court of the Afterworld.
Role-playing notes: K'ung Fu-tzu is concerned primarily with proper government and social relations, especially as fixed by the traditions of the esteemed past. When he notices a good-intentioned but inept or bungling ruler (15% chance), he often sends his avatar down to act as the man's advisor. If he notices a corrupt ruler or high-level bureaucrat (50% chance), his avatar will be sent to expose the man. Omens from K'ung Fu-tzu usually include unexpected discord at court, peasant rebellions, and the breakdown of normal social relationships.
Statistics: AL lg; WAL any good; AoC social behavior, veneration of the past; SY scroll and writing brush.
