Things The Player Characters Know About Ci

Ci is a human male and appears to be in his mid-20s. He has black hair, grey eyes, and the ruddy complexion of someone often at work in the field. He is of average height, and lithe but strong of body. When asked, he describes himself as an apprentice monk of Yanji, which he translates as "The Study." His simple, well-worn robes denote both his devotion to The Study, and his place within its hierarchy: Black robes as traditional for all Yanji Monks, with red beneath, marking him as a Disciple. A yellow sash indicates he is currently on his Pilgrimage, a necessary step in his path to become a Master.

He says of his desire to to join the Magistery that "the lone bird, finds not his sanctuary" and "the Mountain is one, but the paths are many." Ci speaks less than most and often more quietly than others. He is prone to quoting from "The Study" and seeks first to understand, when presented a problem. When fighting, however, he fights with what might be anger or even rage, in contrast to his more common expression of serenity.

He is determined almost to the point of ruthlessness once engaged in combat, particularly in defense of the helpless or when facing a monstrous foe. One gets the sense that there is more to Ci's story than his quiet words and simple wisdom might suggest.
