The Panda Clan

The Panda Clan is an extremely powerful clan within Chun-Nan. They have very few rivals, though troubles and rivalries exist within the clan. The clan is set up into four separate branches. Each branch has their own "Enlightenment Stage" that allows them to have a special ability unique to their branch. However, they must face something in order to unlock this power. The Clan documents to be at least 2,000 years old. Each clan follows a Panda Clan Ethic System.

==Chi Branch==
The oldest documented branch within the Panda Clan. The Chi Branch mainly focuses on Water and Earth type abilities. It is said that they use these abilities because their branch has mastered the earth, and are pure enough to make it into a Pure Abode of heaven. In rare cases the people of this clan have light abilities. The Chi Branch is has the second strongest enlightenment stage known as "Anagami". This allows them to use the Anagami Eye. However for anyone in the branch to unleash it they must face their own personal truth. The Chi Branch resides within eastern Chun-Nan in a large area of beautiful villages.
