Yan

While Yan is a graceful and skilled dancer, her art has provided both survival and suffering.

She is a refugee from the land of Zhulong, which was largely destroyed in the cataclysm 16 years ago. As she fled the destruction of her homeland, she was separated from her father and wound up living on the streets of Tai Krung.

For years she danced for pocket change and food scraps, until one day a madame for a popular nightclub noticed her and took her in. While she was well fed and had a warm bed to sleep in, the madame’s training routine was brutal and she frequently picked on Yan “for her own good.”

Some years later, when Mara came into power and made the nightclub his own personal pleasure fortress, he singled Yan out for her skill and beauty.
