Daxi Ong Mao

Go to Home

Born in a small tribe of panda beastmen that was destroyed when he was a child (he never knew why), Daxi was sold off as a slave. He was liberated (or rather captured again) by river-pirates who thought he was amusing and kept around as a mascot, eventually growing into a full member of the crew.

The crew were wiped out during a deal with the Lintha when the demon-blooded pirates decided it would be a better bargain to pay blood than silver. Daxi survived by hiding and stalked the Lintha one by one until they sacrificed their loot to the river god for his help in escaping to sea, with the god distracting Daxi by explaining about the Solar exalted.

After stealing a pendant leading to the Pearl of V'neef, the young night caste was directed towards Hephastia by the same river god, now eager to move Daxi out of the area before his dealings with the Lintha came to the Solar's attention.

Since reaching Merull Varr, Daxi has wound up treasure hunting, battling a god (after a disastrous attempt at dancing) and found a beastman village up river. He has concerns about the sanity of Tokumei but got on fairly well with Meng until the latter left. Meeting Lunar Exalted and Dragonblooded has broadened his horizons. Now wealthy as a result of earlier expeditions, he's invested in trade and purchased his own ship, the Eye of the Panda.

During a visit with the Migdan part of the Bronze Tide he rescued Chiang Lao De, an older Panda beastman from the same village as him.
