Personality and Abilities
Musician: Scholar Rank in Instrumental music from the School of Music. From personal training for many years afterwards, he has become one of the best musicians of his class, but in just about anything else in life he is a bit behind.
Instruments he plays;
Flute- Expert
Viol- Scholar
Piano- Scholar
Drum- Learned
[/SPOILER]
Weaknesses
Trusting: If you become his friend, he will follow you to the ends of the world. He also won't know if you betray him, making that not so good for politics, his main weakness there. Trust is something he might give out to willingly.
Weak; he is weaker than the average person. In an arm wrestling competition, he would lose in the first round. He wouldn't be able to win in a strength contest in any regards.
Women; He is a flirtatious man. This tends to get him in trouble with any woman he finds attractive. He trusts those he flirts with too much as well, getting him into trouble at times. Women in general are just a major weakness of Zhou.

(Link to his Family/Clan for further information upon him and his family)
The first ten years of his life were filled with fun. His parents gave him almost anything he wanted, and he lived happily with them on the Yang-Tzu isles. His family were traders, and occasionally went to Regalia to trade valuable silks with the nobles of Regalia for gold and technology. One day, however, his parents wouldn't let him re-board the trading boat. They told him he was to stay here at school. They wished for Zhou to learn music, and be able to entertain others, mostly his father Shi. They also sent him to school to humble him, since he lives with a /rich/ family, and kids raised rich tend to be too proud and self righteousness. They signed him up for the School of Music, and he spent from the age of ten, when his parents left him, to the age of twenty five learning music. He played music for someone in the Regalian tavern for the first time at twenty five, whom told him his music is beautiful. He loved looking at the man's eyes brighten in pleasure. He decided he wanted to be a bard for life, and his ambition was made; to become the best bard ever!
After leaving the school, he traveled around Regalia. Soon, he was ambushed by three Ailor ruffians, and Zhou was forced to use his duel-wielding skills, killing his first man at twenty six. Zhou met Nick Verrus, a young Ailor of nineteen who lived in Regalia his whole life, and they became close friends, Zhou apprenticed Nick into becoming a bard, and Nick learned quickly. Sadly, Nick died at the age of twenty, by Eske Ulfmaerr, burned alive with alcohol and a match.
Within a week after losing his apprentice, he was drafted into the care of Audrey and Alexander Ortonnaise, and became both their guard and official gleeman. He spends his time there now, working secretly as their Chart Martel, and openly as their guard and gleeman. After roughly a month in their service, he went into the slums, following a "cultist." target, when he was jumped by a feral vampire (@TheDongler , dont tell anybody!!! xD) and gained two scars on his face, a scar on his left arm, and a bite scar, almost like it was from a dog, on his left shoulder. He gets in trouble constantly with vampires for some stupid reason. Now we are at the present, where he tries to apprentice more gleemen, and protect House D'Ortonnaise with utmost Loyalty.

Personality and Abilities
- First Paragraph: Zhou is thought to be Cheery, always with a smile. Off duty, he is never not grinning, and always plays his flute. But on duty, people know him to be thoughtful, stubborn and impatient. He only brings the latter of the three up when he is stressed, however. He has gotten in trouble with the chain of command by rushing into things with his impatience. If he does not get sleep for several days in a row, he turns almost into a teenage woman, having almost mood swings, and thinking irrationally.
- Second Paragraph: Zhou tries to act confident and cheery, but he often doubts himself. He has spent many years trying to perfect his talents, but there is "always a critique." He believes he has the ability for greatness, but every time someone tells him otherwise, he takes the blow to heart. He does not let this stop him, however, and is very passionate about his music. He wishes others were as passionate about music as he, and tries his very hardest to make people enjoy his music, sometimes trying a bit to hard.
- Third Paragraph: He acts almost the same with friends and family. Due to him not actually /having/ an active father or mother, they being alive but not with him often, he treats them almost like friends, or acquaintances, because that is all he knows them as. To those he is attracted to or courting however, he is extremely flirtatious. He is confident in himself and will purposefully try to make the woman blush, or smile.
- Fourth Paragraph: Zhou is of morality quite good. He always tries to think things through, and will fight for those he thinks are on the right end of an argument, no matter what his allegiance to the one on the wrong side would be. He has betrayed a friend to the Violet Guard once because of this morality. If he thinks its the right thing to do, he will not care who it hurts to do it.
- Fifth Paragraph (OPTIONAL): Shortly, he is very strong in his religion of The Loong Dragons. He is often heard saying "May the stars watch us." He wishes the commoners were treated better, but respects the stations in "the system."
Musician: Scholar Rank in Instrumental music from the School of Music. From personal training for many years afterwards, he has become one of the best musicians of his class, but in just about anything else in life he is a bit behind.

[/SPOILER]
Loves to play his instruments. Its a talent he learned as a child, and he loves to look at others faces light up as they hear his tunes.
Flirting; Zhou is a very flirtatious man. If he finds an attractive woman, he will most likely walk up to her and flirt with her. This gets him in trouble with those he courts sometimes, but its just apart of him.
Likes to teach his music to others, hoping that the talents of the Gleemen will be widespread like they once were.

Lack of Motion; He wants to always move and be active, standing around guarding during an assembly for three hours, for instance, is not his thing.
Haters; Those whom only try to pull others down, he just absolutely dislikes. Especially when someone be pushing other's cultures and pasts to shame
Abstract Thinking; Being a Chi, things like abstract thinking come hard to him, and thus he has almost shunned the thought of doing it.
Vampires; He has had much trouble over his time in Regalia with vampires, they giving him much of the wounds he has gotten. He has a deep resentment of vampires as a race themselves.
Alcohol; He lost a good friend to Alcohol, and hates it with all of his being. He does not drink, and find distaste in others who drink as well.
