Xuan Shi

Xuan Shi belongs to a ducal clan from the north, the province of Savage Seas. They are incentivized to have close ties with Emerald Seas, to make use of their wood for ships. Beyond this, it is implied that Xuan Shi bears an attraction to Cai Renxiang.

He is described as having blocky features and a broad chest. The whites of his eyes are dark grey, almost black, and his irises are an odd grey green shade. He also has a few patches of dark green, nearly black scales peeking out from under the neck of his thick dark green robe which is patterned with geometric shapes. He is often seen wearing a wide brimmed conical hat patterned like a turtle shell.

Fighting Style
Xuan Shi focuses on the use of earth element arts and formations in combat.

From interactions with him it is known that he prepares his materials ahead of time to use his formations in combat. His favored weapon is described as: "a tall xixhang capped with a silver hoop cut in half by the a continuation of the staffs haft." It bears a half dozen rings of varying metals.

Bound Spirits
Xuan Shi does not possess a spirit beast of his own from what has been observed.

The Xuan however do still have their Sublime Ancestor, the Living Isle, which is a massive Xuanwu.
