Mini Biography - Yuki was scarred in a freak accident. He got cut by a knife when helping his mother prepare food. She had turned and caught the 8 year old boy. Luckily it didn't take his eye. Barely 3 years later, his mother, father and three brothers were killed by some strange plague that hit that area of Kutou. He is one of a few remaining members of the Hin race, and once the sickness hit, he was ran off as a source of bad luck. The villagers failed to realize that his whole family had gotten killed. He wandered around, and still does, trying to help people all he can.

Blood Type - A+
Birth Place - Seisen Village
Family - Older brother, Jun; Father, Liang
Hobbies - Making jewelery from quartz and hemp, playing the Xiao (Chinese recorder, but looks more like a flute), singing (mainly to herself. She'd be far too embarrassed to sing in front of anyone), going to festivals to watch the folk dancing.
Abilities - Has extensive knowledge of medicinal herbs, remedies, and first aid (taught to her by her late mother and for some strange reason, her medicinal healing seems to be more effective than if treatment were administered by someone else in the same manor.), plays the xiao very well, well enough to be invited to a court to play if someone should hear her. Unfortunatly, like with her singing, she'd be far too embarrassed to preform in front of more than her father and brother. Her xiao playing has no special ability. Li Mei is also extraordinarily dexterous with her hands, being able to make woven bracelets in half the time it would take most people. This dexterity could probably be put to other uses, but she hasn't really had the need to do so.
Personality - Li Mei is a bit on the quiet side, also being a bit shy when she aquires more attention than she's used to. Don't let her exterior fool you, for she is no pushover. Li Mei will speak up when necessary, usually to defend herself, or someone she cares about. Thankfully, she's far more charming and diplomatic than she gives herself credit, otherwise she might worsen a situation, rather than help it. Li Mei is a fairly understanding person and thus, doesn't get angry very easily. Some people might annoy her, but when that happens, she usually tends to put herself in their position to understand why they might do or say a particular thing, thus making her pretty empathic (not extraordinarily, but more than the average person). When Li Mei does get angry, it's usually kept to herself and simply gives the person with whom she's angry with the cold shoulder and gradually gets over whatever they have done. Her brother is the one who usually annoys her as he likes to play pranks on his little sister.
Mini Biography - Li Mei was born and raised in Seisen Village until her mother passed away when she was fourteen from an incurable disease. Up until that point, her mother, also the village healer and midwife, had taught Li Mei everything about medicine that she knew. Her mother told the girl countless times how much she had a knack for it.

After his wife passed, Li Mei's father, Liang, decided to move to Eiyoh and sell water (he had only sold the jewelery Li Mei made before along with various other trinkets she created. His wife's healing brought in enough money to where he didn't have to make much more in order for the family to survive). The family had a good chunk of money saved already, so they set off to Eiyoh and took residence in a nice shop-house which they rented.

Li Mei continued to make her jewelery and trinkets (also serving as a healer when necessary), while two weeks out of each month, her older brother, Jun, and Liang journeyed (and still do) to Hokkan and back in two wagons to retrieve fresh water to sell in Eiyoh. This left Li Mei to tend the shop on her own half of the time. She didn't have any friends, so Li Mei was lonely when left on her own. There were a few regular customers to whom she chatted every so often, but this was only enough to keep her sanity, not to fill the void.

This business arrangment has remained the same for a little more than three years and has worked out very well for the family. They've been able to save up money and furnish the house part of their shop very comfortably, as well as buy a few fineries such as silk clothes for special occassions (should there every be any) and porcelin vases and the like. The water business has been very kind to the Chen family, and while they're not filthy rich, they are far better off than a lot of other families in the city.
