Qiu Feng
the Crimson Boneblade
A killer posted at the mourning hall of the Mirage Estate, crimson masks stacked on his head and the Crimson Boneblade in his hands.
Combat
His twin-bladed weapon, the Crimson Boneblade, is a vicious relic he treasures like his own marrow.
When the fight turns against him, he pulls the long blade from his skull, lets his masks cover it, and swings with the fury of a sudden storm.
Copying the footwork of martial opera and the bared fangs of fang-spitting acts, he has set teeth into his masks in the belief that it makes his blows strike harder.
Background
He wears a straw cape with several crimson masks stacked on his head; his frame is powerful, his skin corpse-pale.
On first entering the estate he slaughtered every Nuo performer, treasuring their Red Judge masks and stacking them atop his head when his face could hold no more; imitating sword-swallowing and fire-walking, he drove a long blade straight into his skull to prove himself unbreakable.
He answers to the Herald without loyalty, wanting only the blood of strong fighters to dye his masks and cape completely red.
Aftermath
Hearing that the undefeated Master Soul had entered the estate, he waited eagerly along the path; this time it was his own blood that stained the masks and the straw cape.
