顔のない乙女 (kao no nai otome), "The Faceless Maiden". She was dubbed with such a title as a result of the reputation she made for herself. She used her charming features to disarm others easily, but always wears a mask whenever she does her work. The 'faceless' part of her title alludes to that as no one ever lives to tell the tale of who she is if they see her full face.

・ overview
huifang comes of as very stoic and listless at first glance. she is rather silent at first, but do not be fooled. she has a rather sharp tongue and fears not a single person on the face of the earth that she wouldn't talk back to. she works smarter, not harder and does her best to accomplish what she needs with as little effort as possible. she's snarky and can come off as malevolent, but in all truthfulness, she simply wants to be able to comfortably get by and nothing more. she has a very controlled temper and rarely ever acts out, keeping her composure even through the toughest of scenarios. she is very realistic and knows when to back down in situations and doesn't rely on foolish concepts like hope. she finds no harm in backing down when the time calls for it, very well understanding how much worse it can get, and therefore her pride doesn't falter. additionally, she has an extremely tough skin, one in which no person's words have ever penetrated deep enough to cause damage. a cold-hearted individual, it's easy to construe huifang as heartless or a shell of an actual person. in reality, the mercenary wants nothing but a simple life, and only does what she does to be able to get the funds for it. she cares not for any menial situations that can hold her back, and she lives life with a 'survival of the fittest' mindset. despite her outwardly prideful or snide demeanor, she never underestimates anyone and bites her tongue when necessary. she isn't inherently malicious either. she finds peace in many things and is always interconnected with her Jing energy, all thanks to the teachings of Hai. the mercenary does indeed have a heart, but she doesn't wear it on her sleeve. her motivation and will never lies in those around her, but rather, those who she wishes to see once again.

・ history
Huifang was born in one of the villages in the outskirts of Ba Sing Se. With the climate of war as merciless as ever, her family did their best to get by and live a normal life. She tended to simpleton things when she was smaller like helping her mother around the house while her father worked out in the fields. After some time, with the birth of her younger brother Han, she became more involved, helping her parents take care of him as often as she could. From a young age, she was a quiet girl, but her heart laid in her family. She was especially protective of her younger brother, teaching him everything she knew and making his youth enjoyable despite their circumstances.
However, this happy life didn't last long as the war didn't hesitate to ruin anyone's life. One peaceful day, as her mother was preparing lunch, Fire Nation troops attacked their small village. She had immediately scooped her brother up and ran to hide with her mother while her father went outside. The men of the village were ready to fight back, to protect their village, but as more soldiers continued to march down from the horizon, their sense of nobility quickly shattered. In order to preserve their families that were hiding, the men gave in, letting the troops colonize the village without second thought. Watching her father get thrown around and arrested fueled her with rage. Seeing him give in without fighting back angered her more than anything.

・ bender
no, non-bender.
・ strengths
huifang is an expert qi blocker, having learned from the best. she does well with hand-to-hand, melee, and overall close range combat. although she appears to be aggressive in combat, she uses more defensive based styles similar to wing chun or sanshou. she is quick on her feet, prioritizing evasion to prevent injury and get as close to her opponent as possible. she is knowledgeable in the types of jing as well, taught to her by her mentor. she also has extremely accurate precision and can use long-range weapons well in case of scenarios were she cannot veer close to an opponent. huifang utilizes charm to get her way, too, and can very easily pull on any kind of facade to fool anyone she needs to fool.
