## Introduction / Backstory ??

He is the 2nd retainer, one position below the young Yanqing (considered to be equals with skill/potential/likeability), of General Jing Yuan of the Luofu Cloud Knights. he's commonly found in the shopping districts around the ship whenever he is on break from work. he was orphaned at a very young age, and hasn't been able to find information about his parents.. but refuses to give up. he is in his early 100's, but physically looks like he's in his early 20's, due to the natural youthfulness of the long life species who live on the Luofu. despite not being very adapt at business stuff overall, despite being a Foaxian and 'doing business' being the well known trait of his people (which he feels like a bit of a disgrace for), he can still be good at sweet-talking his way to get discounts! and can be rather good at bartering. (even though he usually gets discounts and free things on the Luofu due to his position, this skill of his needed to be learned when he isn't on the luofu or when doing business with traders from other worlds who come to visit the Luofu.. usually in regards to different vintage trinkets he likes to collect).

He wields a steel bo-staff (with detachable lantern), and carries around a pistol. his nickname 'bullseye baron' is a reference to how he never misses a shot when it comes to firing at a target - his subordinates in the cloud knights gave him the nickname.

He's 2nd cousins with Tingyun, as well! they were close despite only chatting occasionally through text, as they were both to busy to meet in person more then twice a year. he cared about her a lot. she was the only family he had, so when the Luofu as a whole had deemed her as dead even without a body or any evidence, and did the whole starskiff thing as tribute to her.. he was crushed. he was there to watch, and even placed an item on the starskiff (a hand crafted flowery hairpin he made for her after months of hard work and failed attempts.. something he had planned to give to her on her next birthday), but it was clear he wasn't all there mentally during the ceremony, eyes glazed over and uncharacteristically non-chatty. he still holds out hope that she's alive somewhere, regardless of what everyone else says, and even if shes not.. he has been plotting revenge on the puppet master behind it all ever since the idea crossed his mind. he didn't know what he did to deserve to suffer like this.. to have what little he had stripped away without mercy or warning.. the pondering of this conundrum keeps him up quite late most nights.

Yukong has tried to sooth him with words of encouragement, in her own way, and even invites him for tea when their not both busy.. being able to relate to his loss. and even though he wouldn't consider her a friend/close friend just yet, he does appreciate Yukong, and the fact she is trying to help him through the grief.. grief they both have been able to bond over. overtime he started to view Yukong as almost a aunt-type figure, and even befriended her daughter to some degree. healing is a slow process, and he still has a very long way to go. but.. as long as he has others to be by his side as he walks that road - maybe it won't be as bad as he thought.

***(the art displayed of him was made by me! though its quite old. his design itself hasn't changed, but i plan to update his outfit in some ways.)***

## Personality

He has a rather mysterious demeanor around him. he of course isn't malicious, and is often viewed as far more level headed or analytical then the young prototype retainer swordsmen that ranks above him despite he himself being older and having more experience (salty man but will deny being salty about it).. but truth be told he has a strong mischievous side, liking to pull harmless pranks on his fellow knights as well as tell lots of jokes (good and bad ones. he knows a lot of genuinely good jokes but he often purposefully tells bad ones for the comedic effect or to just annoy others. usually when he's bored). he can often be found hanging around central starskiff haven (star watcher avenue), or aurum alley, during his free time/breaks or just for casual self-assigned patrols.

He can be a bit sadistic sometimes, but that's mostly just due to his harsh upbringing. he was once a pickpocket as a child, not having parents or any family to teach him right from wrong. other then Tingyun of course, but they rarely saw eachother. he stood out from other foxians for many reasons - one being that his ears and tail didn't match his hair in color, and two because he never had a "birthfate" picking because of his parents' disappearance, or if he did have one as a baby - he can't remember it, and didn't have anyone to inform him of it later on down the line when it came time to decide his own future. and because of that, for a long time he didn't have any path to follow or overall direction in life. he felt very lost and disconnected from the world, but eventually he encountered the general of the space ships' army as a teen, and was taken under his wing after some shenanigans (jing yuan saved him when he tried to fight off a marastruck to protect a child). growing to view the general as a father figure.

The general is the only one whom he'd never pull a prank on, but he does tell him jokes from time to time. they even play chess together when the general isn't so busy. due to the general's influence, he ended up being a bit more carefree then his fellow foxians, who are mostly all business and nothing else. he never really got along too well with others of his own kind, but he wasn't sure why - he supposed it wasn't all too bad, though.. since he learned to make others his family. these immortal humans, the luofu natives. he has a proclivity/affinity to 'charm' *almost* everyone around him due to how naturally charismatic he is. he is good at reading others, and telling when someone is lying to him - so its hard to lie to him or keep a secret from him. people say it's almost like he can 'see through' them in a way, giving them chills down their spines. all he needs to do is have one conversation with you, and he can uproot your mortals or intentions and anything you might be hiding. no one knows how he does it - and he doesn't either, though he wouldn't ever admit that.

He of course can be very serious when he wants to be, such as when commanding tropes or when in true battle or when in just simple sparing sessions - he goes all out and barely gives mercy. he can appear rather scary in those instances. if you can't survive him, a singular mere (im)mortal.. then how could you survive going a against any other threat? that's just how he sees it, and how he tells it to his fellow knights, at least. many people don't know what to think of him.. as his personality can switch on a dime. one moment he's laughing from a juvenile joke or prank he did/told without a care in the world, and the next he's slicing through an opponent without mercy or hesitation.. not caring for the blood splatter on himself. an "enigma" is usually what he's referred to as. he has good intentions, but often has an .. odd or otherwise crazy/out of the box way of showing it. same goes for getting things done with his cloud knight duties. but despite this, is is actually known to be very calculated, regal, and extremely agile in combat. which is how he got the title of "the bullseye baron", since he's known to 'never' miss his mark once he's locked onto it. no matter how far away a target tries to run, he will always be a few steps behind .. following - relentlessly.
