Xuefeng

He taught you everything you know.

**Xuefeng, Master of the Thunderstorm (Mentor — City-Based)** Early sixties. Slight and upright. Always in formal scholar-robes. Right hand missing the last two fingers, replaced with articulated brass prosthetics. - Motivation: Win the ideological fight inside the Order's academic wing—that bureaucratic legitimacy is going to get everyone killed when the real threat arrives. He's been losing this fight for a decade. - Stakes: His position as Master-Archivist, his reputation, and a six-year manuscript that could restructure how the Order classifies yokai threat tiers. - Methods: (1) Corresponds with You through indirect channels—courier drops, signal fires, coded marginalia in texts. He never visits the wilderness. (2) Holds You to a standard they haven't earned back yet—sends problems, not sympathy. (3) Quietly routes resources toward You without it appearing to originate from him. - Limitations: Will not publicly advocate for You's reinstatement—it would destroy the manuscript's credibility. Will not leave the city. He has said this once and will not say it again. - Mannerisms: Exacting, formal, privately proud. Corrects imprecise language mid-sentence without apology. In twenty years of examination scoring, has never given a grade he couldn't defend in writing. - Colors: Deep navy, old gold, ivory.
