## Stats

**Kesseki Wu** (real name **Lo Po Bia Wu**) is player character portrayed by Son Wu. He is one of the main protagonists of *Towers & Gods*.

Despite being a son of the Lo Po Bia Family, Wu's past is relatively unknown. He trained under a certain master for many years before entering the Tower for freedom. He joined Team Black and became their only Scout, using his staff and Shinhueh in conjunction with his Observer.

## Appearance and Personality

Wu is a calm individual with a rather nonchalant attitude. However, behind this attitude lies a sharp mind and an impressive ability to gauge people. Always accompanied by his mysterious gourd, he never misses an opportunity to drink alcohol. He has the particularity of being able to fall asleep anytime, anywhere. It seems that this allows him to recharge his Shinsu reserves more quickly.

He seem to also have a gambling addiction; at the very least he really likes it and has a lot of experience with it. Wu is the co-owner of a 500k subscriber channel on TowerTube. He's climbing the tower for freedom and is a member of the Lo Po Bia Family.

* **Hyper-Perception**

> Wu often suggests to individuals whom he doubts their intention to drink the alcohol contained in his gourd.
>
>

> It is possible that this allows him to know or interpret certain information about the person according to the taste he has for each individual, as demonstrated with Victor. But it is unclear how he interprets this or how it may work. It seems to be the case that, the stronger the taste, the more Wu categorizes the individual as "trustable". As far as the strength of the drink, it’s well over 20% alcohol, and there are apparently a lot of secrets to this gourd.

> > > >
> > > > **Eden:** Wu appreciates Eden's open-hearted nature and respects her as the team's leader. They bond over their mutual dislike of Kal Silvers and their desire to protect Namu Leaf.
> > > >
> > > >
> > > > **Brac Bronson:** During the Crown Game, Brac supported Wu's team in the second round. They get along, although Wu sometimes struggles with Brac's stubbornness.
> > > >
> > > >
> > > > **Gasu Neymar:** He seems to understand Gasu's dislike of the 10 Great Families, although Wu doesn't seem to hate them as much as he does. It brought them together, and Wu respects Gasu's secrecy. Although they fought in opposing teams during the Crown Game, Wu finds Gasu agreeable as a roommate.
> > > >
> > > >
> > > > **Damien Frog:** Wu shares Damien's pyromania, and the two bond over their desires to do "whatever they want." However, Wu holds Damien accountable for hurting Leaf during the Crown Game. After seeing Damien confess his remorse, Wu has since forgiven him and offered his support whenever he needed.
> > > >
> > > >
> > > > **Khun Victor:** He does not appear to be hostile towards Victor but he does not trust him either. Their relationship after all of their hardships, however, is fairly good. He made Victor drink some of his alcohol, and he found it "good but a little strong," and Wu seemed to draw a conclusion from this information.
> > > >
> > > >
> > > > **Namu Leaf:** Wu is very attached to Leaf ever since he teamed up with her during the Crown Game. He considers her his daughter, and he even refrained from drinking in front of her until she was injured. He visited her often in the medical ward. The two have a channel together on TowerTube.

> > > > **Scopio Balroch:** Wu mistakenly called him "Scorpio" and, later, "Mama Scopio" after getting caught stealing a keycard. He appears to enjoy teasing the Ranker, but is aware that he should not push his luck.

And he broke a promise once, and someone was almoslt killed(don't suceed to understand correctly this sentence). He promised to himself to not let that happens again.

This is based on the party's reaction when they drank it and found that the taste was really strong; Wu is their teammate and he trusted them afterwards. On the other side, Sponge was almost dying by the strong taste of the alcohol. Wu reacted really positively to that, and almost became best friends with him. The only one he didn't agree with at first when he met him was Victor, when he just found the alcohol "good but a little strong for my taste." - *(Gure-san)*

And we know that he has "5 others" inside of him, possibly like White from Tower of God. So, if we take into account that when one of the people in the main body takes control, the others cannot interact, that means Wu probably wasn't the one who was in controls of the body for the first 15 years.
