* DemotedToExtra - Sun Quan lead Wu during the actual Three Kingdoms period, but Sun Jian is treated as Wu's answer to Wei's Cao Cao and Shu's Liu Bei.
* DistressedDude - Gets in trouble during two battles and will need to be saved, but luckily on one of them Sun Ce's around, so Sun Quan is just a regular Officer and not the Commander.



* DemotedToExtra - See Sun Quan. Sun Ce's the one who founded Wu - Sun Jian died before that could happened.






** He's a bit snarky in DW5 too, mind you.



*** He does at least admit defeat if you kill him instead of run him off.



** How has Guan Yu's death not been mentioned??



* GameBreaker - His Musou, specifically.



* RazorWind.




to:

** StoicWoobie - She doesn't let it out a whole lot though.


Added DiffLines:

* BonusBoss - Generally in the battles against Dong Zhuo. The game will specifically advise you to ''not'' fight him and instead take detours. Managing to beat him gets Zuo Ci and Sun Jian their fourth weapons in DW5. During the Battle of Xia Pi, he's much weaker, and takes off once his health drops to 1/3 anyways, where he's captured by his own men, allowing for an instant win.

* AntiVillain
* ChaoticNeutral - He's just looking for a good fight, and a worthy lord to lead him into one. Brushes the side of ChaoticGood, as he detests some of Cao Cao's sneakier moves.


Added DiffLines:

* HypercompetentSidekick - During Wei's side of Chi Bi, Cao Pi recognizes the danger of Wu's fire attack, though Cao Cao brushes it off. Since Cao Cao's the one in charge though, Cao Pi's only able to move himself and his wife to stop the attack.

** ...which was then traded in for a three-section staff/sansetsukon as noted above in DW6 Special...which...is an improvement?



* BladeOnAStick - one of the few with an unchanging main weapon



* BadassBeard

to:
