'''Jing Lang''' (1686 – 1717) was a [[China|Chinese]] [[Templars|Templar]], [[Piracy|pirate]], and target of [[Edward Kenway]] in the early 18th century.<br />
<br />
The daughter of a rebel, Jing Lang grew up fighting. As a young woman, she developed a talent for negotiation and a knack for languages, as well as a taste for discovery. She broke ties with her family to marry the son of a Qing dynasty general her father opposed, and served as their military adviser. Ultimately for performing so well, she was granted a diplomatic post. Over the next decade she traveled the world, developing a reputation for brutality that preceded her in most conflicts. Using piracy as a cover for her political activities, she banded with any who might serve her ultimate desire for negotiated order. <br />
<br />
In the [[Caribbean|West Indies]] of 1717, she fell under the interest of a rumored cache of treasure, and feigned a romantic relationship with one-time [[Assassins|Assassin]], [[Vance Travers]], to gain access to it. Under the suspicion of Jing being a Templar, Vance's brother, [[Upton Travers|Upton]], ordered Edward Kenway to have them both killed. Edward shortly assassinated her to collect a [[Templar keys|Templar key]].<br />
<br />
In 2013, her [[Genetic memory|genetic memories]] were used as an Animi Avatar by the [[Abstergo Entertainment|entertainment branch]] of the Templar company [[Abstergo Industries]], to influence the general public via the [[Animus]] game console, under the title of the [[Orchid]].<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
*Jing is the {{Wiki|pinyin}} transliteration of multiple Chinese surnames, the exact surname in this case being unknown. Likewise, Lang is a transliteration of various homophonic Mandarin words. However, the title of her Animi Avatar indicates that her name may perhaps be 蘭 ({{Wiki|Simplified Chinese characters|simplified}}: 兰) meaning "orchid", though it is properly transliterated as ''Lán''.<br />

The '''Eight Tigers''' were a powerful group of eunuch administrators that controlled the [[Chinese Templars]] and the [[China|Chinese]] imperial court during the reign of the [[Ming dynasty]] [[Zhengde Emperor]].<ref name="Blog.ubi">[http://blog.ubi.com/assassins-creed-chronicles-china-preview/ Blog.ubi.com: ''ASSASSIN’S CREED CHRONICLES: CHINA – SNEAK AND DESTROY'']</ref><br />
<br />
Originaly led by [[Liu Jin]], who wasn't a Templar himself, the group leadership was taken over by [[Zhong Yang]] in 1510, when the latter betrayed Liu by denouncing a plot against the Emperor, leading to his execution.<br />
<br />
After Zhengde was succeeded by the puppet [[Jiajing Emperor]], the Templars manipulated him into initiating a [[1524 Chinese Assassin purge|purge]] of the [[Chinese Assassins|Chinese Assassin Brotherhood]].<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Embers]]''</ref> After the Assassin survivor [[Shao Jun]] returned to China to rebuild her Brotherhood, she began exacting revenge on the Tigers, tracking them one after the other.<ref name="Blog.ubi"/><br />
