### Age

70 (Deceased)

Èrzhang-Lo was an ancient nobleman and general hailing from an unknown empire on the southern continent. On surface examination, Èrzhang-Lo is a fairly average person - not what one would typically expect to be a famous general. In fact, Èrzhang-Lo is actually the rarest type of Fusion to have existed in recorded history.

## Origin

Èrzhang-Lo is the son of famous philosopher and imperial advisor Balzhang-Lo. Balzhang-Lo, ever the player, managed to get with and knock up two unknown women at once who were in a fusion state. Upon conception, the two women were unable to leave the fusion until birth. Unfortunately, being forced to remain as a fusion for so long made it dangerously unstable, and after giving birth they defused fatally.

Balzhang-Lo, despite having innumerable children with other women, decided to accept Èrzhang-Lo as his heir, and raised him himself. This resulted in Èrzhang-Lo being raised in an opulent palace alongside the other children of imperial advisors. This very sheltered upbringing shielded him from much conflict or hardship

For the majority of his early life Èrzhang-Lo considered himself and was considered by others to be an average individual, yet he would still be pretty isolated from connections. For the most part he kept to himself. He would try to make friends with the other children in the palace but their parents would advise them not to associate with Èrzhang-Lo due to his father's scandalous reputation, and that fact his mother/s were not nobles. He also would not be able to spend much time with his father as he was usually either very busy with work or courting another woman. This disconnection with his own father and lack of friends would continue to feed a discontentedness deep within Èrzhang-Lo. It would all come to a head when, at the age of 15, he would sneak out of the royal palace to explore the city around him.

## Discovery of Chen/Chanzhang-Lo

The Naïve Èrzhang-Lo managed to sneak out of the royal palace. Unaware of the dangerous environment around him he would walk the streets exploring the shops and food carts that populated the city. Blind to the fact his clothes were worth more than most of the buildings around him, he gleefully explored the labyrinthine streets and alleys. Then he took a wrong turn.

Èrzhang-Lo would turn down a dead end alley, and when he attempted to turn back he learned he had been followed by several thieves who intended to steal his stuff or worse. They would back him to a wall, threaten him with death, and in a flash the stress forced Èrzhang-Lo to discover his special move: Double Trouble. He would separate into two individuals named Chenzhang-Lo and Chanzhang-Lo. Chan would charge the thieves, punching them with a great fury, while Chen would throw street debris with immaculate accuracy at their heads. After a short scuffle, the two managed to scare off the thieves who would run for their lives. With the fight over, the two young boys would fuse back together to Èrzhang-Lo, who would exhaustedly run back to the royal palace.

## Life

Èrzhang-Lo, invigorated with a newfound sense of power would hone the abilities of Chen and Chan. While separated, the two would train nearly every day for hours. Chen, a master of ranged combat would carry with him his father's bow, and Chan a master of melee would carry his father's sword. Èrzhang-Lo would go on to become a very successful general, leading armies to great victories.

## Powers and Abilities

Èrzhang-Lo's unique Fusion state is one of a kind, and followed the rules of Fusion inversely. As such, Èrzhang-Lo could only defuse for a limited amount of time. However, due to his natural inclination to Fusion, he was able to increase the time spent defused to up to 1 month through consistent training. In their training, both Chen and Chan would become masters in their respective combat styles, allowing for the two to support each other's weaknesses in battle. However, while fused, Èrzhang-Lo is not particularly good at either.

## Trivia

* While Èrzhang-Lo is the only known Fusion of this type, the circumstances could be recreated. The limits of this type of Fusion are unknown.
