Cai Wenji

Cai Wengi (蔡文姫, Saibunki) is an original character in Kessen II. She is an optional character who can side with either Shu or Wei.

Role in Plot
Cai Wengi is the illustrious queen of Fu, a country known for its exotic trade routes and peaceful relations with the Han people. She learned her sword fighting from a legendary swordsman and is said to possess sorcery that surpasses Zhuge Liang and Himiko. She is asked by either leader to attack their rival, which she complies by ransacking the Jing Province. The two generals in her army are Ma Dai and Deng Ai, who can defect and join Shu and Wei respectively. Her other "generals" are powerful clones of herself. When she's defeated, Liu Bei/Cao Cao will forgive her. Touched by their generosity, she will join their cause as a secondary general.

Fighting Style
She leads a sturdy cavalry armed with bows whom can be upgraded to be stronger Mongolian horsemen. Her stats are nearly maxed in all four directions and she is one of the few playable characters in the game to start with a high magic and war stat. She posses three spells, two of them being high-leveled and arguably the most damaging spells in the game (Gale and Fissure). Her dueling ability allows her to initiate a rare wuxia-style sword fight with Mei Sanniang or Sun Li. Though her skills are impressive, she has difficulty maintaining a high army morale and maybe routed if her abilities are not available.
