Description:

Elder Ming-Hua tends both to Táofēng's sacred shrines and its legendary scroll library with equal reverence. Her massive frame belies her delicate touch - she can perform complex calligraphy or arrange ceremonial flowers while in her human form with the same gentle precision she uses to climb peach trees in her panda form. As the head of the Shrine Council, she serves as both spiritual leader and diplomatic mediator, often hosting dignitaries in carefully orchestrated tea ceremonies where her serene wisdom helps ease tensions between noble houses. Though she appears unhurried in her movements and soft-spoken in her speech, her encyclopedic knowledge of healing practices and careful documentation of kami interactions have earned her respect throughout Mupalan. She keeps a careful balance between preserving ancient traditions and recognizing when change serves the greater good, though she remains steadfastly protective of the inner shrines from those who would seek to exploit their power.
