Basic Information

Name: Mesa
Title: The Bamboo Ronin
Type: Dragon-Blooded Exalt
Age: 34
Player: Dan H.
Aspect: Wood
Concept: Grass-Spider
Motivation: Find the owner of the bamboo sanxian.
Political Affiliation: The Hallowed Order of the Grass Spiders
Anima: Mesa's motions leave glowing green trails of Essence in the air, which sprout vines with leaves and petals that shrivel up quickly after Mesa's movements take him elsewhere. At high levels, small plants, flowers, and insects spring from the ground where he steps, again dying out quickly when he leaves. At maximum power, any surrounding bamboo bends around Mesa to form a grand archway above wherever he stands.
Likes: Spicy food, impractical weaponry, hookah, coffee, flashy haori
Dislikes: Cats, opera, the Guild, perfume

Familiar: Fenrir (God-Blooded Wolf)

Loyalties

Motivation Find the man who gave him the bamboo sanxian.
Intimacies The bamboo sanxian has led me down this road - I have to keep it safe, so that I may find the man who owned it. Fenrir has risked life and limb for me, and although I'm embarassed to admit it, I'd do the same for him. The Circle With No Name is the closest thing I've got to a family, and I'd like to keep them around, too.
