Ho trovato, su alcuni siti, delle biografie particolarmente lunghe, che sinceramente non ho mai letto nei giochi <.< quindi non so se siano state inventate da dei fans o che;
il problema, comunque, è che sono in inglese ed io non ci capisco quasi niente. Se magari un giorno qualcuno avesse l'accortezza di tradurre, non sarebbe malaccio :D





"Kim Wu comes from a long line of highly skilled warriors. In this time, the mystic art, or energy wielding techniques, are fairly common, but only a select few warriors can actually use them. Kim Wu's family is one such few. Two generations ago, they were responsible for defeating Gargos, and sealing him up. This was his last defeat until his present rampage. Kim Wu's father, Kim Rei-Chang, was the leader of the Imperial Guard, responsible for the protection of the empire. He was easily the best fighter in the empire, and quite possibly in all of China. He fell in love with and married a young girl from the country, and together they planned a long time together and a large, happy family. However, that would not come to be. Rei-Chang's wife died only hours after giving birth to Kim Wu. Rei-Chang was saddened and disappointed, both by the death of his wife, and the fact that he had no sons to succeed him. Rei-Chang was young enough to remarry and hopefully produce a son or two, but he found that his love for his wife was so strong that he didn't desire to be with any other woman. With no son to succeed him, Rei-Chang tried taking on promising apprentices, sons of other Imperial Guard members. They were all good warriors, but they didn't have what it took to be head of the Guard. They also couldn't master the mystic art, no matter how hard Rei-Chang tried. Meanwhile, his untrained daughter, Kim Wu, was exceptional. Although very young, she showed signs that she had incredible potential. She could grow fully developed flowers within a matter of hours, and rumor has it that she accidentally destroyed part of a mountainside while playing around. Rei-Chang sensed his daughter's abilities, but tradition forbid him to train a woman, even his own daughter, as a warrior. Growing impatient with his apprentices, Rei-Chang decided to train Kim Wu secretly. Under his difficult and strenuous program, Kim Wu's abilities began to blossom, as it became apparent that she could have powers that surpassed that of her father. She was trained in secret from the age of 4, up until she turned 15, when Rei-Chang was assassinated. One of Rei-Chang's apprentices, who believed himself strong enough to become to new head of the Imperial Guard, eventually found out about Kim Wu's training. He promptly told his father, who became enraged at the thought of a woman being trained as a warrior. He suspected that Rei-Chang would have Kim Wu succeed him; although such an idea was pure insanity at the time, it wasn't completely impossible - at present, the empire only had a queen and no king. The queen was quite radical, and was trying to increase women's freedoms. It was entirely possible that the queen would approve of Kim Wu joining the Guard. To try and prevent this, the guardsman, along with his son and a handful of followers, lured Rei-Chang and Kim Wu into a trap. Father and daughter fought bravely against the odds, but Rei-Chang was killed while protecting Kim Wu. The gang then turned to Kim Wu, attempting to kill her. Enraged beyond imagination, she unleashed her power, destroying her attackers, and a big chunk of the countryside. The incident became public, and was no less than a scandal. Nonetheless, with Rei-Chang dead, a new Imperial Guard head would have to be appointed. Despite the controversy, Kim Wu was the strongest and most powerful warrior around, especially since Rei-Chang had long since given up on his apprentices. The queen, publicly, "had no choice" but to appoint Kim Wu as the head of the Guard. Secretly, the queen was thrilled that a woman had obtained a position of power. The Guard was not as happy. Over half of them quit in disgust, refusing to take orders from a woman. The other half remained scornful and resentful against Kim Wu. She entered a very lonely period in her life - with her family dead, she couldn't make friends as both men and women considered her to be too brutish for a female. Nonetheless, Kim Wu pressed on, rebuilding the Guard with warriors she faced in the country. They, too, were hesitant to follow a woman, but once she showed them how skilled she was, they had no problems following her. Despite everything, Kim Wu obtained quite a bit of success. The Guard was more powerful now than it ever had been, and Kim Wu's skills could not be disputed. Although a great many people still hated her as the head, they didn't voice it as much. Unfortunately, the psuedo-tranquility didn't last long. A cunning and rather intelligent warlord wanted to release Gargos, believing he could control him. He needed the two halves of the Seal of Gargos, one half of which Kim Wu had been personally charged to protect. By paying some of his fellow warlords a rather hefty fee, he convinced them to wage war against Kim Wu's kingdom, at various different points across the countryside. This spread the Imperial Guard thin, and allowed him to attack the kingdom itself with his own army rather easily. With Kim Wu fighting a battle elsewhere, the warlord took the Seal of Gargos. Upon returning from battle, Kim Wu learned about what had happened. Public sentiment was now 100% against her, as many said things like "this wouldn't have happened if a man was head of the Guard." She had lost what little respect she managed to earn. Although the queen didn't agree, she had no choice to go with the public, for fear of backlash. She stripped Kim Wu of her position and dishonored her family name. Disgraced, Kim Wu is charged solely with returning the proper half of the Seal of Gargos. She is not given any help - such a command is more or less a death sentence, as the warlord has now managed to obtain the other half of the seal from an Amazon tribe, and has freed Gargos. Kim Wu is determined to succeed though, not to regain her position and spare her life, but to restore her father's honor. Although Kim Wu sets off alone, she eventually gains a small band of followers - Imperial Guard members who actually recognized her accomplishments, as well as mercenary soldiers, and other wandering warriors who knew of and respected her skills. She and her group make it to a battlefield, where Gargos is doing battle with the other demonic spirit, Eyedol. The fight is interrupted, as Eyedol disappears. Gargos goes to a strange structure that appeared out of nowhere, the "Ultratech Corporation", and Kim Wu follows him, alone. She agrees to help a woman named Orchid, who is trying to defeat this strange kingdom. But her ultimate goal is to defeat Gargos and obtain her half of the seal."
