Full Name: Matthew Celadon Apparent Age: Early 30s Occupation: Tattoo Artist Sphere: Mage Demeanor: Guru Merits of Note: Celestial Affinity Plot Hooks ♦ Chinatown: You scour these Chinatowns of the mind, translating them like sutras Xuan Zhang fetched from India, testing ways return might be possible against these homesick inventions, trace the traveller's alien steps across borders, and in between discover how transit has a way of lasting, the way these Chinatowns grew out of not knowing whether to return or to stay, and then became home. ♦ Occult: Mao Shan Sorcery is intended to be practiced to benefit the public but there will always be some bad eggs that abuse their knowledge by casting spells and commanding ghosts/spirits/demons to harm people. Keeping ghosts/spirits is what Taoist Masters are taught and can do. Ghosts Keeping is a way to seek them as spiritual servants to help out during Taoist Sorcery. Whether Mao Shan sorcery is considered White Magic or Black Magic will depend on the intentions of the Mao Shan master. ♦ Crime/Street: A good act does not wash out the bad, nor a bad act the good. Each should have its own reward. The Middle Kingdom "Never trust a Yama King. He has a hundred motives for anything he does ... Ninety-nine of them, at least, are malevolent." "Neque porro quisquam est qui dolorem ipsum quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci velit." "There are 12,800 hells located under the earth – eight dark hells, eight cold hells and 84,000 miscellaneous hells located at the edge of the universe. The Kuei-Jin bring a piece of each hell back to the Middle Kingdom with them." "Neque porro quisquam est qui dolorem ipsum quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci velit." "Neque porro quisquam est qui dolorem ipsum quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci velit." "The souls of the deceased endure after death and must be kept happy by offerings and honor. If a spirit is not kept happy, perhaps because it had a bad death, an improper burial or has no descendants to perform the proper rituals, it becomes a hungry ghost." Contacts Yang ♦ Ceara "You step onto the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's no knowing where you might be swept off to." ♦ Jin "This trembling adored tousled bird mad girl." ♦ Kong "I can hear that thunder roar/Echoing down from god's distance shore/I can hear him calling for my soul" Yin ♦ NAME "Neque porro quisquam est qui dolorem ipsum quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci velit." Yomi ♦ Celeste "I've got the world down my back, but I don't seem to care." Gallery
