Hai Zhang is the only child of a Chinese man living in the Barrens, whose mother was around just long enough to have him and vanish into smoke. He developed keen talents in theft and a silver tongue rather early, and spent most of his teenage and early adult years in a gang called the Silver Dollars, a local conglomerate of grifters & sneaks - less good at direct confrontation, far superior to the average gang in doing sneaky stuff. Life went steady there for a while, even with dear old Dad trying to get Hai out of that business. He rose the ranks, met a sweet feathered SURGE girl named Anastasia, had a good thing going. Soon enough, he was basically third in command, handling inter-gang relations and making sure the other folks around didn't start enforcing their turf too hard. | Hai Zhang is the only child of a Chinese man - Yazhu Zhang - living in the Barrens, whose mother was around just long enough to have him and vanish into smoke.

Character Information
Summary
Ex-ganger reeling from survivor's guilt and the belief he accidentally murdered almost everyone important to him, seeking answers for why. Sea Drake, avid follower of Hermes, the ancient Hellenistic god of travel, tricksters, and thieves.
Goals
- Ascertain the fates of his former gang mates

- Find his mother, and ask several questions
- Most importantly, do not let the dragons find out what he is.
Background
Hai Zhang is the only child of a Chinese man - Yazhu Zhang - living in the Barrens, whose mother was around just long enough to have him and vanish into smoke. He developed keen talents in theft and a silver tongue rather early, and spent most of his teenage and early adult years in a gang called the Silver Dollars, a local conglomerate of grifters & sneaks - less good at direct confrontation, far superior to the average gang in doing sneaky stuff. Life went steady there for a while, even with dear old Dad trying to get Hai out of that business. He rose the ranks, met a sweet feathered SURGE girl named Anastasia, had a good thing going. Soon enough, he was basically third in command, handling inter-gang relations and making sure the other folks around didn't start enforcing their turf too hard. Then, some local Halloweeners got antsy that the Dollars were grifting too far into their territory, and in a last-ditch effort to avoid full-on confrontation (that they knew they would lose), the Dollars got them to agree on a neutral negotiation over territory rights. Fully armed, of course, but even with their leader temporarily incapacitated by a severe infection, they figured Hai could handle it. Unfortunately, between family pressure, relationship drama, the stress of the situation, and that weener bastard's annoying fragging voice, he just kinda… snapped. Next thing he knew, he's face down in a burning building, covered in blood & burns and surrounded by bodies. Later, after getting dragged home by a friendly local, he would learn that apparently someone had turned into a dragon and the ensuing firefight killed basically every single Silver Dollar present, and most of the Halloweeners too. His father then sat him down to explain that yes, he did in fact turn into a dragon, and he knows that's the case because his mom could do the same, and he was only never told because Yazhu was hoping the talent had skipped a generation. Evidently, it had not. So, after a bit of wallowing in agony and despair and all those lovely things, Hai elected to snatch up that fat rainy-day fund he was gonna use on Ana to start a new life across town and use his old skills to financial gain once again. This brings us to his intro to ShadowHaven, fresh off his third recommendation.
