Chun Mai

> Do you have any idea what it means to take a life? To snuff out the light of another human being, to rob them of everything they are and ever could've been? It is a crime beyond measure, the pinnacle of inhumanity and cruelty. And yet, you see fit to do so as if it were nothing, as if the lives you take hold no value or worth. You are a blight upon the world, a cancer that must be excised. You are nothing but a coward hiding behind power that isn't yours, and I will not hesitate to stop you by whatever means necessary!

## Background

Chun Mai grew up in ancient China, where she was born into a family of doctors. From a young age, she showed an exceptional aptitude for both the martial and medical arts, quickly surpassing her family and peers. As she grew older, her thirst for knowledge and enlightenment led her on a journey of self-discovery, taking her to remote monasteries and hidden temples across China. There, she studied under some of the greatest masters of both martial and medical arts, honing her skills and perfecting her techniques. However, her quest for knowledge often led her into dangerous situations, as she delved into forbidden teachings and practiced techniques that were considered taboo. She made many enemies along the way, and her actions eventually drew the attention of the authorities, who branded her a criminal and hunted her down. Faced with the prospect of imprisonment or execution, Chun Mai fled China and went into hiding, traveling the world and seeking out new knowledge and experiences. She took up the mantle of a wandering healer, offering her services to anyone in need, regardless of race or creed. Despite her years of wandering and isolation, Chun Mai never lost sight of her ultimate goal: to use her skills and knowledge to help others and make the world a better place.

Her reputation as a wise and compassionate savior that fought evils and saved lives spread far and wide, inspiring countless others to follow in her footsteps and seek enlightenment and salvation through martial and medical arts. In recognition of her many achievements and her unwavering dedication to helping others, Chun Mai was summoned to the Throne of Heroes after death.

## Abilities

### Combat

Chun Mai fights with Tianxia Mantenbō, a two-meter Bo staff, allowing her to only need to attack when an opponent enters her range. Such a distance as three meters between her and the opponent matters little, so while it is easier to thrust at an approaching enemy instead of moving out, she will still quickly close the distance between an opponent instead. All of her strikes are enough to be a finishing blow. The main strength of Tianxia Mantenbō is in its swings rather than thrusting as its shape would indicate. Its wide swing utilizes its long range to not allow the enemy to dodge by stepping back. Partial retreat from a strike will not allow for escape, attempting a counterattack would result in receiving a slashed stomach, and simply going forward will result in a smashed rib from the long shaft of the lance. Thrusts are still dangerous, but it is possible to avoid an attack that targets a specific point once it has been seen through to allow for the strike to be redirected to create an opening. Chun Mai is able to easily put distance between she and her opponent at any point in a battle, and use her staff to vault thirty meters, her speed is extraordinary.

Chun Mai's blows are almost always fatal, whether she throws a hard blow designed to kill or a simple feint to draw her opponent into an attack. As someone who earned "A Second Strike is Needless" in the history of Chinese martial arts, this was the second name conferred to a martial artist famous as one of the strongest. It said she can snatch away the life of her opponents during matches just by touching them, no matter how light of a touch.

## Equipment

### Tianxia Mantenbō

Chun Mai's signature weapon is a legendary polearm that is said to have been crafted from a meteorite that fell from the heavens. It is a versatile weapon that allows Chun Mai to strike from a distance, deflect incoming attacks, and deliver devastating blows to her enemies. The Mantenbō's spiritual energy can also be released in the form of powerful shockwaves that can knock back enemies and cause destruction to the surrounding area. With a single swing of the Tianxia Mantenbō, Chun Mai can create a powerful shockwave that can disrupt and decimate anything in its path. The Mantenbō's spiritual properties also allow her to sense and track spiritual signatures, that is, anything that possesses a soul can be tracked down. Furthermore, the Mantenbō has the ability to purify negative energies and dispel curses. In addition, the Mantenbō can enhance Chun Mai' healing abilities. By channeling her spiritual energy through the weapon, Chun Mai can greatly amplify her healing abilities and heal wounds that would otherwise be fatal.

Beside usage for attacking opponents, the pole freely expands and contracts when ordered, allowing Chun Mai to attack distant things without moving. The staff's longest recorded length is 238,900 miles, allowing Chun Mai to strike from incredible distances and catch her enemies off-guard. One of the unique functions of the Mantenbō is that it can attack directly into the soul of an opponent, bypassing their physical defenses and striking at their very essence. This makes it a valuable weapon in battles against enemies that rely on physical defenses or have strong spiritual fortifications. Another one of the unique functions of the Mantenbō is that it can be controlled telekinetically, allowing Chun Mai to manipulate the weapon from a distance. This gives her greater flexibility in battle, as she can use the Mantenbō to attack from unexpected angles and catch enemies off-guard.
