Warlords of the Three Kingdoms: Sun Jian 孙坚

Sun Jian, the Tiger of Jiang Dong (Southern of the River/ Southlands) Patriarch of the Sun clan that eventually founded the Kingdom of Wu, reputed to have descended from the legendary writer of the the Art of War: Sun Tzu. A confident veteran commander, respected by friends and feared by enemies. His early death brought his family to ruin, however his most dangerous assets turned out to be the brood of fierce children he raised. 

If you like the Starks from "Game of Thrones," you will learn to love the Sun family in a similar light. The southlands~ as always, remembers.

THE TIGER'S CHILDREN

Sun Ce, the young conqueror, brought the Sun clan from the brink of ruin to renewed dominance. Fierce in battle yet jovial and kind. A very personable ruler and one who was seen as a big brother to his soldiers. Though a brash warrior, he often sees his own limitations and rely on wise counsel from the likes of his sworn brother Zhou Yu. Like his father, Sun Ce also met an untimely end at the height of his military career

Sun Ren, or Sun Shang Xiang: fierce lady of the Sun clan, reputed to have an all female corp of bodyguards who wore armor. Though her life is largely embellished in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, historically she was a tomboy and was recorded to have delighted in wearing armor.

Sun Quan: The young lord of the south, wise beyond his years. Though at first he was unprepared for the monumental task of shepherding his kingdom. Eventually Quan became a wise and calculating ruler. His long reign saw much of the Three Kingdoms era pass by.
