	Jiang Jin was born at the turn of the century and watched his family decimated by plague, earthquake, and fire by the time of his First Change, just after World War I. He dedicated himself heart and soul to the survival of his family through this hard time and those to come. As fewer and fewer Chinese were allowed into the country, no new wolf-blooded arrived to refresh depleted stocks and so Jiang was forced to marry a human woman. Nonetheless, two of his five children and five of his grandchildren Changed, proving the strength of his line. Jiang's own vitality was apparent to those who saw him outlive his wife and all of his children and continue to lead his pack to the present day. The years during the Depression and World War II were mostly spent fighting the MacLellans and Phelans. His last great combat victory was in the early 70s, when he earned his entry into the Lodge of Scars by challenging every member of the [[:Category:Henry's Get\|Henry's Get]] to single combat (including their totem) and defeating them all without a single death and without taking a single wound. The peace won by that challenge has lasted to this day. Since then, he has been instrumental in the formation of the Golden Mountain Protectorate and is its uncontested leader. Lately, though, he is hard-pressed to leave Chinatown and generally spends his time in [[Portsmouth Square]] playing Chinese chess with other old men and reminiscing on old times. His beta runs the day-to-day affairs of the pack but comes daily to keep his alpha informed and get his advice.

	Jiang is a fiercely intelligence and perceptive person, but tends to play to the image of a doddering old man in his decline. He talks a lot, loving to tell stories and gossip, but is always using the reactions of people to what he says to judge them. He is always interested in people's pasts, long since learning the lesson of the Shadow that the past is closer than you think and never really goes away. Jiang doesn't share [[Hugh Keegan]]'s bitterness, cynicism, or hatred. He's seen many sad things in his life and been through difficult times, but he knows they all past, that wounds recover, and no slight is so great that it can't be mended. That said, he is wary of the [[:Category:Silver Kings\|Silver Kings]] and, of course, [[:Category:Henry's Get\|Henry's Get]] and keeps a close eye on any threat in the city as alpha of the Protectorate.

	==Background==		==Background==
-	Jiang Jin was born at the turn of the century and watched his family decimated by plague, earthquake, and fire by the time of his First Change, just after World War I. He dedicated himself heart and soul to the survival of his family through this hard time and those to come. As fewer and fewer Chinese were allowed into the country, no new wolf-blooded arrived to refresh depleted stocks and so Jiang was forced to marry a human woman. Nonetheless, two of his five children and five of his grandchildren Changed, proving the strength of his line. Jiangâ€™s own vitality was apparent to those who saw him outlive his wife and all of his children and continue to lead his pack to the present day. The years during the Depression and World War II were mostly spent fighting the ~~Ivory Claws on Nob Hill~~ and ~~skirmishes are still common, but left to younger folk~~. His last great combat victory was in the ~~late 50s~~, when he earned his entry into the Lodge of Scars by challenging every member of the [[:Category:Henry's Get\|Henry's Get]] to single combat (including their totem) and defeating them all without a single death and without taking a single wound. The peace won by that challenge has lasted to this day. Since then, he has been instrumental in the formation of the Golden Mountain Protectorate and is its uncontested leader. Lately, though, he is hard-pressed to leave Chinatown and generally spends his time in [[Portsmouth Square]] playing Chinese chess with other old men and reminiscing on old times. His beta runs the day-to-day affairs of the pack but comes daily to keep his alpha informed and get his advice.	+	Jiang Jin was born at the turn of the century and watched his family decimated by plague, earthquake, and fire by the time of his First Change, just after World War I.
