Wang Xue Qi - Master An The feared, hated, but very much respected warlord who rules the Silk Road area surrounding the town of Damaying - "Big Steed Village" - Master An mesmerizes with his love of soothing music and his penchant for wearing pristine white vestments amidst the gritty life of the desert.He is himself a product of the crossroads of cultures that is the Silk Road, with a mix of Chinese features, dreadlocked hair, and blue eyes which betray the blood of places far to the west. Master An instills fear especially because he is usually so peaceful, often playing the two-stringed Chinese erhu late into the night. But beware when Master An decides to use his skills in combat. He's the most dangerous swordsman in the region, and surrounded by ruthless henchmen as well. Until now content to rule the area of Damaying, Master An sees the chance to expand his power when an emissary of the Turkish leader enlists his help to capture a camel caravan making its way from India to the Chinese capital. Master An wonders what could possibly be so valuable that the powerful Turks need his help, and he may have his own evil intentions for the mysterious and powerful objects the caravan is carrying. |
