Dan Heng

Appearance: Dan Heng is a young adult man, average in height [5'8] and having a tall and slender build. He's described as a young man with a fair complexion, short, flicked strands of black hair with a tuff of bangs between his teal eyes. He has red eyeliner on the lower lid of his left eye and an oriental-styled jade tassel earring with a lace connected to his other ear. He usually wears a black turtleneck with two short zippers on the front, a white and green-colored coat, with gold and smoke-styled accents and a piece of jade armor on his left shoulder, a black bracer on his right arm, gray pants and black high-top shoes with white soles. As a Vidyadhara he has long black hair, sharp ears, a pair of fangs, green horns like those of a Chinese dragon. His attire in his Vidyadhara form is a white sleeveless shirt with a cutout on the chest, with long, detached sleeves that have gold and green-colored accents, black fingerless gloves and a green sash with a teal seal surrounded by golden leaves. His pants are black and his long knee-high boots have white and golden accents.

Personality: The cold and reserved train guard and archivist of the Astral Express. Wielding a spear named Cloud-Piercer, he joined the Express crew to escape his secluded past. He acts as the Express' guard on its long trailblazing expedition. Dan Heng never talks much about his past. In fact, he joined the Express Crew to escape from a past of his own making. to avoid his kin, he decided to travel with the Astral Express. But can the Express really help him outrun his past? Dan Heng's true form from his Vidyadhara lineage carries the residual power left behind by his past incarnation, the Imbibitor Lunae. Upon accepting the majestic horns atop his crown, he must accept all the merits and faults attributed to that sinner.

Backstory: Dan Heng was 'reborn' rather forceful on the Xianzhou Luofu. A new dawn began. It was just another extremely average day aboard that giant ship. The markets had just opened and the morning dew is was still fresh, but the young man crossing the street had never seen such a sight. Before he manages to notice all the differences between the actual city and its descriptions in books, he was immersed in savoring the warmth of the sun on the back of his neck. It was his first time seeing his own body clearly. This body belongs to him. It belongs to this current name. When he arrived at the port, the escorting soldier removed the last of his shackles. He walked forward without looking back. He could feel, ever so faintly, several pairs of eyes gazed at him from within the city. Eyes filled with hatred. It wasn't until the spaceship took off that he turned his head and took one final look at that place. It really was a magnificent and grand spaceship — just like the books said. He only glanced at it once, then turned his head away to where the stars shimmered dimly and an uncertain future laid. He looked out in silence. He stepped off one IPC spaceship, then boarded another. He'd never even heard of the ship's destination, but that didn't matter. There was nowhere he particularly wanted to go. His only goal was to get as far away as possible from his past, from his "home." On these spaceships, people come and go all the time. None of the IPC crews cared who he was, so long as he can work. He had changed his appearance and might no longer be recognized, but he knew that same power still lurked within him, unable to be shaken off no matter where he went. This power dragged him down, slowed him, tried to overwhelm him, and made him unable to escape his past. He had to be careful. But he still couldn't shake off the man with the beastly eyes. If others in his homeworld felt hatred toward him, then that man only had a killing intent toward him — even the spaceships he had traveled on were all annihilated. That man had died before him, but would reappear soon after. Outside his homeworld, there's a larger world where anything is possible.

Additional information: The achieves of the Astral Express is where Dan Heng sleeps, a mattress and blanket on the floor as his bed. He enjoys the solitude of the space and being surrounded by reading material to meticulously maintain. Due to ingesting a love potion, the aphrodisiac effects force Dan Heng to take on his Vidyadhara traits. Unexpectedly transforming him into that bodily state. In his Vidyadhara form, his genitalia is a hemipenis, meaning he has two dicks.
