Xiong Huan

Xiong Huan is an Aurlûnoren naturalist, inventor, fashion designer, polymath and former explorer who led the successful Jeannes' Expedition of the North. He is infamous for his multiple skills and talents, most notably his crossdressing skills, acrobatic skills, impersonation skills and intellectual prowess. He is a member of the legendary Xiong family which spawned countless myths and urban legends from all around the continent of Rathnir, most of which originated from the Syltör region.

He was well-known for leading the first zoological expedition to Eldham, which started on March 16, 930 and ended on October 24, 931. This highly influential expedition led to the discovery of countless animal species, such as the Vespic Dragon (Peloropsis vespis) and the Jeannes' Parrot (Septentripsitta jeanneum). It was also controversial for the loss of 17 men who participated in the expedition with countless rumors about how they disappeared, however they have all been confirmed dead by Huan himself.

He was also an influential figure in the sex industry for being one of the most successful crossdressing courtesan in both Rathnir and Eldham. He is also known to have a crippling addiction to drugs, specifically cannabis. Somehow he also tends to avoid alcohol at all costs for he usually becomes unpredictable upon consumption. Huan was also banned from every bar in the Syltor region mostly due to an ancient urban legend that is estimated to originate roughly 1200 years ago.

Childhood and Adolescence
Huan was born in the regional capital of the Tacua Province, Estecónmar, as the eldest child of Dr. Hao Xiong and Hua Xiong. Dr. Hao Xiong was a descendant of the very first Celestial Elf who has entered the Xiong family approximately 30,000 years ago, a time when Chang-eun xenophobia was at its peak and tensions between Celestial Elves and Chang-eun tribesmen was at its bloodiest. Raised by his father Dr. Hao Xiong and his mother Hua Xiong, he was strictly taught not to fear and hate other creatures, as Dr. Hao deems it illogical and irrational.
