Name: Cao Cao
Age: 32
Residence: Chen Liu
Appearance:
He has medium sized hair, which is jet black in color, with a couple of grey lines. He has a small mustache and a small, but pointy beard. He wears a long, blue and black cape. He also wears a tunic that is mostly blue with parts of black in it. For a better understanding, look at the picture above.
Personallity: Cao Cao is a very ambitious man who will let nothing get in the way of his goal of ruling China. He is monstly cruel and if you stand against him, he will show you no mercy and will make an example of you, showing others what will happen to them if they do the same thing. Though if you get close enough to him, you will see the kind side of Cao Cao. He truly wants peace for the people and he will stop at nothing to protect them, as well as his closest friends and family.
Weapon: Sword of Heaven:
Weapon Strengths: Durable, far reach.
Weapon Weaknesses: Weak against spears, kinda heavy so it is not as fast as other weapons.
Armour: He wears a strong, durable bamboo type of wood. It is not as strong as steel, but it will take some hits before it breaks. He has open spots in his armor at the armpit, neck, lower thigh, and since he does not wear a helmet; the face.
History: Cao was born in the county of Qiao. His father Cao Song was a foster son of Cao Teng, who in turn was one of the favorite eunuchs of Emperor Huan.
Cao was known for his craftiness as an adolescent. Cao's uncle often complained to Cao Song about Cao Cao's indulgence in hunting and music with Yuan Shao. In retaliation, Cao Cao feigned a fit before his uncle one day, who immediately rushed to inform Cao Song. When Cao Song went to see his son, Cao Cao behaved normally. When asked, Cao Cao replied, "I have never had a fit, but I lost the love of my uncle, and therefore he had deceived you." Henceforth, Cao Song ceased to believe the words of his brother regarding Cao Cao, and thus Cao Cao became even more blatant and perseverant in his wayward pursuits.
At that time, there was a man living in Runan named Xu Shao who was famed for his ability to evaluate one's potentials and talents. Cao paid him a visit in hopes of receiving the evaluation that would earn him some political reputation. Originally, Xu pondered and refused to make a statement; however, under persistent questioning, he finally said, "You would be a capable minister in peaceful times and an unscrupulous hero in chaotic times." Cao laughed and left after hearing the comment.
At the age of twenty, Cao was recommended to be a district captain of Luoyang. Upon taking up the post, Cao placed rows of multicolored staffs outside his office and ordered his deputies to flog those who violated the law, regardless of their status. Once, an uncle of Jian Shuo, one of the most powerful and influential eunuchs under Emperor Ling, was caught walking in the city beyond the evening curfew hour by Cao's men and was given his fair share of flogging. This prompted Jian Shuo and other higher authorities to "promote" Cao to another position outside the imperial capital (governor of Dunqiu County) to remove his management.
