 About Sūn XíngzhěSūn Xíngzhě
What each Class means to the build:
Aegis represents his divine flesh, more durable than a normal human, as well as granting him the ability to wield a super oversized weapon*. Meditant represents his crazy monk(ey) fu. Shark Incarnate is used primarily to represent the etherealness of his existence and how the power he has is interchangeable with his body. Cleric is because Wùkōng was also known for protective wards against evil magic, and Xíngzhě is growing in devotion to Guanshiyin.
*Huge sized quarterstaff for 2d6, whoo! Description:
Sūn Xíngzhě usually hides himself behind no illusions save that of well, himself, being originally an illusion and all. Xíngzhě appears as a human martial artist in the prime of middle aged vigor, dressed in garb of both Tian and Vudrani origin. The clothes are loose fitting, in colors of gray, charcoal, pink, and gold. Also notable is the fact that he is carrying a huge collumn of black stone banded in gold. Around Xíngzhě head is a silver headband with crystals and iconography of the relatively obscure in the inner sea Vudrani goddess of Guanshiyin. Sūn Xíngzhě makes no effort to hide his monkey tail, though not all notice it, what with the huge collumn drawing all the attention.
If you've never heard of Sūn Wùkōng, here is a general idea. Personality:
Sūn Xíngzhě has many traits of his divine "father", so it is almost more important to describe the ways in which Xíngzhě differs from Wùkōng. Xíngzhě shares the love for alcohol, but is attempting to overcome it. Xíngzhě is still highly overconfident and reckless, but is TERRIFIED of divine retribution. He will not desecrate holy or unholy places lightly or taunt the gods. Xíngzhě, while still a trickster who loves picking fights, generally has a softer bent. When he challenges others who are not vile, he will fight down to their level, to let the battle be decided by wit and cunning rather than raw power. That is not to say Xíngzhě will not bust out his immense power if he things the target deserves no chance for victory.
Xíngzhě, very unlike Wùkōng, is trying to turn over a new leaf and do good, and be as merciful as Miaoshan and Guanshiyin were to him. Xíngzhě will very rarely strike lethal damage against anything less than the most destructive and vile beings. If an angel can become a devil, can a devil not become an angel again? Xíngzhě's predisposition for wooing women is unconfirmed in comparison to Wùkōng, as Xíngzhě is currently preocupied completely with the herculean task of attempting to get Miaoshan's affections while a divine-blessed tiger keeps blocking him. The Origin:
Sūn Wùkōng is not known for his discretion. In one of his endless searches for amusement at the expense of others, Sūn Wùkōng taunted Lahkgya, a male Vudran god of monkeys, desecrating his shrines and turning his followers into birds. As Lahkgya turned upon Sūn Wùkōng in anger, Sūn Wùkōng refused an honest battle, instead creating 71 illusions of himself and scattering in all directions to further taunt Lahkgya. Lahkgya hunted the illusions of Wùkōng to the ends of Vudra, eventually destroying seventy, and seeking for the last two. Sūn Wùkōng himself, of course, had escaped, but the illusion that would soon be Sūn Xíngzhě took refuge in a temple of Guanshiyin. Fearing the divine retribution that had claimed all seventy of his "brothers", he begged a servant of this temple of mercy, Miaoshan, to hide him. When Lahkgya arrived and demanded that the priests bring out Sūn Wùkōng or he would bury the whole temple under a mountain, the priests demanded Miaoshan hand over Sūn Xíngzhě. But Miaoshan would not reveal him, even as the priests and the very god Lahkgya threatened her with death. Just as Lahkgya was about to make good on his threat, Guanshiyin appeared and stopped him. Guanshiyin told Lahkgya that Sūn Wùkōng had escaped, and named this clone as Sūn Xíngzhě, innocent, for Sūn Wùkōng would never lower himself to honestly beg for protection. Guanshiyin asked that Sūn Xíngzhě use his great power, even as only an illusion of Sūn Wùkōng for the service of good and mercy, under the guidance of Miaoshan, who Guanshiyin gifted with a supernatural tiger so that Miaoshan could keep up with Sūn Xíngzhě as they roamed the world on Guanshiyin protected those in need.

Powers:
The Compliant Column- This is a black stone column, with strange indentations as though there were once metal bands around it. The Compliant Column is a quarterstaff has the ability to change to any size category. This does not grant the wielder the ability to wield a weapon of that size. However, it does change any abilities the wielder has that increase the damage as though by one size category (like Lead Blades) into allowing the wielder the ability to wield a weapon of one size category higher. Any such abilities still stack using their normal rules. If the wielder is capable of boosting his effective size category of weapon beyond Colossal, the Compliant Column can stretch beyond its normal abilities to match. The Compliant Column can be destroyed as a normal weapon if Sūn Wùkōng's Ruyi Jingu Bang is destroyed, but otherwise cannot drop below 1 HP. |
