Two Sides of Shifu

Xiuhua has lived and grown up in a Monastary high in the mountains. This monastary is devoted to martial arts and dance, and although most of the monks that remain there are male, Xiuhua has picked up easily on their customs.

She serves as the "lead" female, and divides her time before training in martial arts and performing ceremonial and other religious dances for the town below. She displays these skills to get donations for their sect, but also to seek out potential students who want to learn under her. She enjoys each aspect of her work equally, even if she doesn't get to put on the pretty ceremonial dresses quite as often as her sect robes.
