Wei Hong

Wei Hong is the alchemist who discovered the recipe for gunpowder. He was part of an exploratory group that had been exploring the eastern coastline of the Brimstone Peninsula, at the time known as the 'Last Coast'. He had gathered samples of the dozens of strange minerals he had discovered there, and eventually after enough mixing and testing nearly killed himself from the resulting explosion. He attempted to keep the discovery secret, but his apprentice Aguda Min eventually used his master's notes to create the mixture again. A deeply moral man, he wanted only to help the world and was horrified by the possibilities of what his invention could wreak upon the world.
