Shao Jun (born in 1505) is a famous Assassin of the Chinese Brotherhood of Assassins.
A former concubine of the Zhengde Emperor, she was rescued by the Assassins after the emperor’s death and devoted her life to the Brotherhood as a result.
During the interregnum following the Zhengde Emperor’s death, Zhang Yong—the leader of the Eight Tigers, a Templar faction—ordered a purge of all those who opposed him, which included the Assassins. Shao Jun and her Mentor, Zhu Jiuyuan, fled west to seek out the retired Mentor of the Italian Brotherhood, Ezio Auditore da Firenze. After helping Ezio fight off a Templar attack in his villa in Tuscany, he gave her a Precursor box to help her rebuild the Chinese Brotherhood.
When she heard of the troubles caused by the rogue Assassins in the Khmer Empire, she agreed to meet the four Assassins dispatched there and help them.
Measuring up to 12 feet, it is one of the most dangerous animals one can encounter in the region.
It will bite and inject a potent venom that can kill an adult human in thirty minutes if no antidote is taken. Amazingly, even the very young ones can bite as dangerously as adults. It is not uncommon for expert handlers to extract their venom and use it to poison weapons.
Quick as lightning, the mongoose is the forever enemy of the cobra snake. Thanks to their incredible reflexes, they can face the venomous snakes and exploit any weakness, striking at the right time in the right spot.
The mongooses found in this region have developed a resistance to the snake’s venom that allows them to continue fighting, even after a bite.
They are greatly admired and revered by the inhabitants of the region, who sometimes tame and train them to help against the snakes.
