Background:


Member of the family of Lyukas-Tsai, a clan living in poverty. Throughout generations, his family developed a special form of Martial Art called "Sober men's thougths, Drunken men's words". He was one of the last generations, for doing performances in the streets of Tinjalim didn't pay off as the family thougth. Kwang was always a prodigy, being called the greatest drunk of the town... No matter how much he drank, he always kept his calm and mind, while his body acted on the whim of the alcohol. Be it backflips, impossible tumbles, whirling in a spot, spinning a quaterstaff for a hour, he did them all, as long as he had drank a drop of alcohol. Unfortunately, being addicated to the thing made him rather clumsy when sober, and his body started failing from the amount of drinks...

He had prayed for Chih Shish for wisdom so that he may recover his body, and keep his clan's blood in the roster. He prayed for Kwang Yang for mercy, so that he may live... One day, he drank so much, that he passed out... the people thougth he died... In reality, he has achieved a new form of meditation.. By forcing himself into a state of Euphoria and unconciousness, his mind truly got seperated in the act, and such he became able of drawing upon the Positive Energies, curing his body of aligments, sickness and disease. He was in this curative state for days, then he woke up, in perfect physical condition. Since then, he practiced the "drunken meditation", becoming a master of it ((In-game form of it : Pressing the Rest button)). Unfortunate for him, it didn't heal up his scars, only cured the blood vessels and broken bones. Over the time he became really unattractive, causing the women to run far, far away from him. He became smelly as a beggar, ugly as a beggar, Drunk as a beggar, skilled as a beggar.

By his Twenty-seventh winter, a Coup De'etat was ran on his family, slaughtering every member of it, save for Kwang thanks to him protecting a convoy of liquours. He was left alone, this time truly a beggar... He lost his face in Shou Long, nobody paid heed for the clanless man... He was forced into banditry, starting with liqour caravans to raiding the Golden Way. Eventually, the government of the town had enough and set a couple of female Assasins on him. He made the run for it, escpaing from the pair of women... He knew he didn't have chance of survival in the tight-knotted society of Shou Long, he went west, traveling ocassionally in Upperdark caves, relying on his heightened senses after his meditation, to swimming across wide lakes and jumping through the Shadow Plane. Sometimes, he walked with the Dervish, learning of their ways.

Eventually, he entered the Baldur's Gate area and decided to lay low for a while, to regain the strengh he lost during his escape... and then? THe Celestial Emperor knows only.
