New character!
Hello, folk of ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
paradisa!
Siobhan here, introducing character number three -- the little known Xiao Meng from the manhua The Ravages of Time.
Xiao Meng is a beautiful young eunuch, who works as a nanny for the influential Sima clan during China's Three Kingdoms period. What is little known is that he also belongs to the Sima clan's elite assassin group, the Handicapped Warriors. His role is primarily logistics/information gathering, and in order to try and kill the tyrant warlord Dong Zhuo, upon Sima Yi's orders Xiao Meng dresses as a woman and takes on the name Diao Chan. For a fair while he lives in Chang'an as Diao Chan, and plenty happens, including all this intrigue with Lu Bu, but that's far too long and complicated to babble about now. :3
The important thing is, you get that he's an eunuch who can flawlessly pass himself off as a woman for long periods of time without anyone suspecting a thing. Because it has everything to do with his loss.
What Xiao Meng has lost is knowledge of his true self -- meaning that some days, he'll actually believe he is Diao Chan.
Here, I will show you how to differentiate between the two, because facially, he's always beautiful and effeminate, as a eunuch, his voice will have never deepened or broken:
DIAO CHAN: Fake boobs, hair done up.
XIAO MENG: Flat chest, simple hair.
...And if you ever get really stuck, check my keywords. :D ♥
YOU OTHER GIRLY MALES WISH YOU COULD MATCH THIS :| He's not even trying in the icon I've used for this post, ahahaha.
