Zuo Ci

Zuo Ci was a powerful mystic well versed in the dark arts who followed Cao Cao on his rise to power, believing that he may be the one to restore peace. After losing faith in Cao Cao due to his brutal methods, he instead supported Liu Bei. In Three Kingdoms, he tempted Cao Cao to resign as Prime Minister and hand over power to Liu Bei, angering Cao Cao who ordered him executed, but Zuo Ci escaped, and cursed Cao Cao with a neural disease, causing his timely death. He wields a mystical tarrot card deck. As of Dynasty Warriors 5, he is the most powerful character in the series statistically, ending the tradition of Lu Bu being the ultimate character. He was added to the series by fan request.
