History
Date of Birth: October 28th, 1977
Home: Huairoo District, Beijing, China
Family: Tien Mu and An (parents), Qing (older brother)
Awakening: Preordainment (poor family in capital city of China, did part-time factory work until her adolescence, when her parents "sold" her off to the local tong-run brothel; the Gam Lung muscled in on the network, but Lai's life didn't change much, as she was forced to service them instead; however, secret peeks at their forbidden and hidden Arts sparked her own Awakening), 1992
Mentor: Shao Ping
The Test: Trial by Influence (these darker Akashic sensed her Avatar's stirring and sent her out to the nearest academy, but she ran away from the school and Beijing altogether, hoboing her way as far east as Shanghai, where a Cultist of Ecstasy noticed her Wild Talent, picked her up, and inducted her into to ways of that Tradition, where she felt far more at home)
Comrades: Shao Ping, Han Phat, Jung Ng, Dian Juhairi, Ratna Gede, Nekoko
Key Event #1: Awe & Wonder (with her roving cabal of Ecstatics, they smuggled themselves out of China and traveled the world for joy and spirituality of the experiences, and Lai's talents grew along with her sifu and friends)
Key Event #2: Personal Tragedy (in Seoul, the Five Metal Dragons came after her cabal with a brutal vengeance, murdering most of her friends; she and the survivors scattered, and she followed the advice to go far to the west, to Little Asia in Kansas City in the American Midwest)
Key Event #3: Awe & Wonder (Lai easily settled in the city; while she hoped Shao Ping was doing well, but she deep-dove into the unusual court system here, serving her fellow chi'n ta as a diplomat, especially with Western mages)
Transition: Loss of Companions (Lai also felt content to work as an exclusive escort for Kool Kat Productions with her closest local companion, Han Phat)

Han
Weakness
Uncomplicated
Lai prides herself on avoiding entanglements and complications (especially emotional). This has the obvious side effect of alienating her more and more from genuine relationships.
Likelihood of Corruption
Average.
Lai is erotic but a good person and her sexuality has no effect on that.
