A native of Quain. Li Shuo has traveled to the Inner Sea to see the world and escape the vengeance of criminals.

Li Shuo was always unnervingly still. As a small child he would stare for hours at nothing, saying only that he was "listening to the wind." When set a task, he would do it with diligence, but with little enthusiasm. He spent all his free time thinking, watching and playing by himself.

When he was six, his parents invited the monks of the Dragon Fist temple to examine their son, but the monks rejected Li Shuo; he lacked the malleable nature they sought in their novices. Years later, a ragged and penniless ronin entered his village and saw the boy standing on a low hill, motionless. "What are you doing, boy?" the ronin asked.

"I'm being quiet," said the boy.

"Why?" asked the warrior.

"So that I can hear that cricket that crawls through the grass at your feet," said the strange boy.

The ronin was in fact a wandering zen master. Intrigued, Master Qiang sat down to listen with Li Shuo, placing his one fine possession across his knees. This was his bow. The two became friends, Li Shuo's first real friend in the world, for the two both liked to listen more than talk, and when they did speak, it was about the world, the gods, and how to listen to the quiet things inside and out, not about rice farming or the weather.

Master Qiang taught Li Shuo about the greater world, about lands beyond the seas and about how to use a bow. Content that he had found a worthy pupil, Qiang began to teach the boy the real secrets of archery. Not bone and sinew, wood and muscle, but being and non-being. About hitting the target before drawing the arrow. About how when one is truly at peace within, nothing is impossible without, for nothing without is real. The only real thing, taught Master Qiang, is the the unity between self and the world, a discipline reached through unity with one focused part of the world, the bow.

To the relief of his parents, Li Shuo became a monk under Qiang's tutelage. In the land of Quain, this was among the most honorable of positions and Shuo's parents understood that the gods had other plans for their son.

Qiang and Shuo traveled the land of Quain, practicing zen and archery and living the lives of itinerant monks, begging for their sustenance and occasionally running off a thug or bandit in recompense to the peasants who reverently maintained them as they wandered the land. This was to be their downfall.

In the unmapped flyspeck village of Huonglai, Qiang shot a drunken bandit who was in the act of ravishing a rice-farmer's daughter. The man lived and ran and in his mercy, Qiang let him go. Unfortunately, the bandit was the son of Lao Donhua, a notorious bandit chieftain and lord of many thugs and assassins. Soon several attempts were made to kill Qiang and his apprentice, but the two fled into the night. For months they stayed on the move but Lao pursued them for their temerity and in the streets of the capital, Lanming, they were set upon by several professional killers during a festival. Lao's men swarmed Qiang, who fought them magnificently and ordered Li Shuo to run. Reluctantly, the apprentice obeyed.

After Qiang's death, Lao's men pursued Li from town to town. Even leaving Quain only delayed the inevitable and he narrowly escaped death in Lingshen. Fleeing east, he learned of a ship departing for the far-distant lands of Avistan. In the port he learned that an organization called the Lantern Lodge would pay for his journey if he agreed to join the Pathfinders. And thus he has arrived on the docks of Absalom, poor, hunted, with his training unfinished and owing a debt to the Pathfinders.
