Ma Chao (RotTK)

==Summary==
Ma Chao (馬超), courtesy name Mengqi (孟起), was a military general and warlord who lived in the late Eastern Han dynasty and early Three Kingdoms period of China. Ma Chao was the eldest son of Ma Teng, a prominent warlord in Liang Province. In the 14th-century historical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Ma Chao is romanticised as a heroic warrior and one of the Five Tiger Generals under Liu Bei. In the novel, the descriptions of his character and personality, as well as the order of some events involving him, have been significantly modified for dramatic effect. For example, in the novel he started the Battle of Tong Pass to take revenge against Cao Cao for murdering his family, and also later engaged Xu Chu and Zhang Fei in one-on-one duels, but these are all fictional stories that never happened historically.
