Player: Jordan
Name: Lu Jin (Monthu)
Age: 23
Appearance: Monthu has pale skin with dark brown eyes. His features are stern and his brown hair is generally messy with his hair parted in a wavy fringe, he is of an average height at about 5ft 8in and his build is lithe but still strong. He wears a dark black and grey skin tight thermal shirt, a minimal amount of combat webbing and a quiver of arrows across his back, he wears dark combat pants with matching boots and a belt which consists mainly of spare parts for his bow, extra equipment and a knife etc.
Place of Origin: Xuchang, Henan, China
Personality: Monthu is rather egotistical, taking pride in his skills as an archer he can sometimes come across as being relatively elitist, favouring those who prove themselves to have some sort of extra-ordinary skills and in a sense this is true. Monthu prides himself on his abilities and finds deep respect for any who can match him, but he does not limit himself there, he has an undying want for peace but believes that it can only be achieved through war and revolution. He is a firm believer in the power of the common man and he is often heard saying ‘One arrow can change the world’
Alignment: Falcon Recon
Occupation: Surveillance for Falcon Recon. Otherwise he is pretty much un-employed
Equipment: Most of Monthu’s equipment is spare parts, extra strings, sighting equipment, grips, nocks, arrow rests etc. He also carries a few base essentials for survival as well as a night-vision monocle that fits around his forehead and can be flipped up and down optionally.
Weapons: Monthu’s main weapon is his modern recurve bow which can be taken apart and reassembled in a matter of seconds by the archery expert. It is made of high quality carbon materials and plastics which make it not only durable, but incredibly flexible. It uses a sight to accurately find targets and Monthu makes use of modern arrows to get the best range and damage out of his shots. Monthu has also been trained in martial arts making him a formidable hand to hand fighter, he is also an above-average sword fighter, being able to hold his ground but not too perfect on the offensive, he uses a combat knife instead of a sword.
Combat: Monthu’s fighting style consists mostly of long-ranged attacks with his bow. He is a master at archery and famously shot a pea that was thrown into the air with one of his home made ‘awlpike arrows’ (An arrow with a devilishly thin head, made to pierce organs and sever arteries). He is a skilled martial artist and he can easily use his hands, feet, knife and even arrows to clear space around him to continue his shooting.
Magic: N/A
Abilities: Monthu as earlier stated is a master archer and his skills can almost be considered above human. He is also a skilled martial artist as well as acrobat, being able to scale some of the toughest structures in order to get the perfect shot. These skills have made him perfect for reconnaissance, surveillance and in the off case here and there, assassination.
Flaws: Monthu is not as skilled up-close as he is from a range, and this can lead to him sometimes being placed in a high-pressure situation when surrounded. His views are very personal and he can sometimes become quite angered when they are questioned by others, thankfully his calm nature can sometimes counteract this and make sure that he doesn’t fly off on a tangent.
History: Lu Jin was born in Xuchang to poor parents who made a living by forming simple straw hats and mats and selling them on to tourists. Lu Jin became fascinated with his country’s history and studied great archers such as Lu Bu, Taishi Ci and Zhou Tong and swiftly developed a passion for archery. He saved up as much money as he could and bought a cheap wooden short bow and made a few basic arrows and started practising. He found that he instantly had a knack for what he considered to be an art form and he began to practise more intricate and complicated methods of archery.
Alongside this, his father paid for him to take martial arts lessons in the hopes that he may be able to become a popular athlete thanks to his charm, good lucks and martial skill. Lu Jin quickly grasped most martial arts and made money through a number of tournaments, enough to purchase his first recurve bow and pursue his original obsession, archery. It was only now that people realized that Lu Jin had a truly extraordinary talent. The Chinese military quickly snapped him up to use as a secret agent, scouting out certain installations and in the rare cases, performing high-profile assassinations with just his bow from grand distances.
He practised all of his skills, steadily getting better and better before eventually he was found by Ra, who wanted him to join his own group, Falcon Recon, deciding that his skills would be better applied in the group, he took his bow and joined them, becoming their primary surveillance expert and scout. He took on the codename of 'Monthu' after the Falcon God of War
