Born: 179\\

Japanese spelling: Shiba'i
Age: 24\\
Height: 5'10" (177cm)
One of Wei's greatest strategist, Sima Yi planted the seeds for the founding of the Jin Kingdom from the ashes of Wei. He serves under both Cao Cao and later Cao Pi. While loyal to Wei, his ambition was to one day establish his own kingdom.
He is known for his maniacal laughter and insulting friend and foe alike as "Fool!" or "Imbecile!" Prideful of his intellect and believing that he has an unsurpassed wit, he regards Zhuge Liang as a worthy opponent.

!!!"The Genius Without A Purpose"
http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/simashi_4934.jpg
-->''"I shall be the last one standing once the chaos has reached its conclusion!"''
-->Voiced by: RyotaroOkiayu (Japanese) Creator/JoshGrelle (English)
Born: 208\\
Died: 255\\
Japanese spelling: Shibashi
Height: 5'11" (180cm)
Son of Sima Yi and elder brother to Sima Zhao, Sima Shi is a man with magnificent intelligence who is skilled in both the military arts and various literary studies. Always pressing onwards to the future with a composed focus, he acts as the strategist and commander for his people.
---------
* AloofBigBrother - He's normally rather dismissive of Zhao due to his carefree attitude, and tends to boss him around.
** [[spoiler:He thanks him for coming to see him when he's on his death bed.]]
* {{Badass}} - He suffers a sword blow to the face and [[MajorInjuryUnderreaction just brushes it off as nothing]].
* {{Bishonen}}
* BerserkButton - Never, EVER steal his meat buns. Also counts as [[DisproportionateRetribution Disproportionate Retribution]].
** [[UpToEleven Upped to Eleven]] in the [[DownloadableContent XL Stage]] ''Xtreme Family Feud'', where [[spoiler:Sima Yi is brought into this, and Shi even uses ''Pyrocannons'' against Zhao.]]
* CoolMask
* EvilLaugh - LikeFatherLikeSon, but he's less of a LargeHam about it.
* EyeScream - The reason why he's wearing that mask around his left eye is due to it being struck by a sword.
* FelonyMIsdemeanor - Really, Shi? You're going to kill your brother over ''meat buns?''
* HeyItsThatVoice - [[Manga/{{Bleach}} Byakuya Kuchiki]] has found himself in the Three Kingdoms period of Ancient China.
** This is his third role in KOEI's historical Musou titles (previously being [[SamuraiWarriors Chousokabe Motochika]] and [[WarriorsOrochi Orochi]]).
* IronicEcho - In Jin's story:
-->'''Sima Yi''': (On his deathbed, throws Shi an ornament sword) Use it as you see fit.
-->'''Sima Shi''': You're just leaving it all to me?
** Later on when Shi dies:
--->'''Sima Shi''': (On his deathbed, throws Zhao the ornament sword) Use it as you see fit.
--->'''Sima Zhao''': You're just leaving it all to me?
--->'''Sima Shi''': *chuckles* [[LampshadeHanging I heard that somewhere before]].
* LikeFatherLikeSon - He's much less hammy, but clearly takes after his dad.
** [[spoiler:He gets sick and dies just like his dad, too...]]
* NotSoAboveItAll - The ''Dynasty Warriors'' series has a lot of colorful characters. You wouldn't realize it by looking at him, but Shi [[FelonyMisdemeanor is one of]] [[DisproportionateRetribution the sillier ones.]]
* RedOniBlueOni - Seemingly the Blue Oni (cold and callous) compared with his brother.
* RoyalRapier
** {{BFS}} - Sima Shi's weapon is changed in DW7E, as he gains the Thunderclap Sword, a very large, long-bladed rapier-like weapon. Notably, some of its attacks have been recoloured to be black and red, to match Sima Shi's connection to the Slay element.
* TheStrategist
* TheUnfettered
* TrademarkFavoriteFood - Take a guess...

[[folder:Sima Zhao]]
!!!"The Extravagant Second Son"
http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/simazhao_4315.jpg
-->''"I suppose I have to go out there and do something once in a while..."''
-->Voiced by: DaisukeKishio (Japanese), KaijiTang (English)
Born: 211\\
Died: 265\\
Japanese spelling: Shibashou
Height: 6'3" (190cm)
Son of Sima Yi and younger brother to Sima Shi, Sima Zhao acts as the light-hearted contrast to his stern older brother. He may act as though he is goofing off, but he supports his brother's desires for unification in their name.
---------------
* BattleCouple - With Wang Yuanji
* BerserkButton - In game, if you beat Wang Yuanji before him, he'll go after you.
** Not knowing what you want or misjudging yourself really ticks him off. [[spoiler:Zhuge Dan learns that the hard way.]]
* BewareTheNiceOnes
* {{Bishonen}}
* BrilliantButLazy / IdiotHero - Jin's story mode in [=DW7=] paints him as both, simultaneously at that.
* CatchPhrase - Zhao says "Mendokuse", which means "What a pain!" in English when he's tasked.
* CharacterizationMarchesOn - Prior to becoming a playable character, Sima Zhao was depicted as "Sima Yi Lite", complete with stealing his father's favorite insult.
** Arguably, it could be said that this characterization was used to make Sima Shi instead.
* [[HenpeckedHusband Henpecked Boyfriend]] - Some Japanese fanart even shows [[{{Tsundere}} Wang Yuanji]] leading him around on a leash.
* HeroicBuild - Gets to show off that sexy chest.
* HeyItsThatVoice - Uh...[[WarriorsOrochi Taigong Wang]]? Sorry, but this isn't your timeline...
** Also his English VA (Kaiji Tang) may be unknown, but those who played [[FistOfTheNorthStar Fist Of The North Star: Ken's Rage]] may recognize him as [[{{Badass}} Kenshiro]] himself. Whoa, talk about a difference in personality he played.
** TalkingToHimself: Come ''Musou Orochi 2'', Sima Zhao and Taigong Wang have to hold conversations with each other.
* HistoricalHeroUpgrade - More noble in this game than he was in real life.
** Lampshaded after he kills Cao Mao as he says that history would record him as a killer.
* HugeGuyTinyGirl - Positively towers over Yuanji.
* IdiotHair - Minor case, not very noticeable outside cutscenes in [=DW7=].
* TheMessiah - Shows shades of this.
** He even borders on being a MartialPacifist near the end!
* RedOniBlueOni - The Red Oni (happy go lucky) compared with his brother.
* TheScrappy - InUniverse. It is highly implied that the majority (If not all) of Wei's officers hold him in low regard do to his laziness (As the battle of Dong Xing shows). It doesn't help that Sima Shi gained the favor of many influential officers after he [[TakeThatScrappy demoted Zhao for his failure at Dong Xing]] (Despite him and Zhuge Dan being both at fault). However, he does manages to rescue himself from the Scrappy Heap after he steps up [[spoiler:(following Shi's death).]]
* StoicWoobie - Loses his father and his brother in quick succession and is clearly torn up about it, but doesn't let this stop his advance.

Wang Yuanji is a caring and gentle woman to the weak and innocent. With her husband Sima Zhao, and any authority figure however, she spares them no sympathy and is rather curt.
-----------------
* ActionGirl
* BattleCouple - With Sima Zhao
* CleavageWindow - In her default [=DW7=] outfit.
* DefrostingIceQueen - Slowly becomes more tolerant and respectful of Sima Zhao, and by the end they seem quite happy together.
* ElegantGothicLolita - Her outfit evokes this, although semi-subverted since she isn't a loli.
** PimpedOutDress in her fantasy dlc costume and then...A {{Joshikousei}} esq ensemble.
* EnsembleDarkhorse - Very popular with both the Japanese and Western fanbases. [[http://www.pixiv.net/tags.php?tag=%E7%8E%8B%E5%85%83%E5%A7%AB She has the second most fanart of the new characters introduced in [=DW7=]]]. Trailing only Sima Zhao. She even [[http://www.gamecity.ne.jp/smusou6/enquete/ won 1st place in the popularity poll]]; note that she's the only (new) female characters who made it to the top 10, beating veterans such as Sun Shangxiang or Zhenji.

** In the English version, [[VideoGame/ValkyrieProfile2Silmeria Hrist]], [[{{Persona3}} Mitsuru Kirijo]], and [[SamuraiWarriors [=Ranmaru/Oichi=]]]
* HugeGuyTinyGirl - Maybe justified, since she seems to be a bit younger than him, but she's still very petite next to her strapping husband.
* LadyOfWar
* {{Mukokuseki}}: She provides the series' most blatant example, sporting entirely incongruent amber eyes and ash blonde hair.
* NiceGirl- Most of the time... she IS a {{Tsundere}} after all.
* [[KnifeNut Knife]] [[PaperFanOfDoom Fan Of Doom]] - She wields throwing daggers, folded into a unique fan.
* TheSmurfettePrinciple - She's the only female in a kingdom with one big CastFullOfPrettyBoys, until mom-in-law Chunhua is introduced.
* {{Tsundere}} - Type B. She is usually rather curt towards Zhao, but gets embarrassed when he teases or compliments her. On other people, however, she's pretty nice. [[WordOfGod The developer]] did say she is based on the {{Tsundere}} archetype. And... her quote on being chosen on [[EnsembleDarkhorse the most popular character ever]] says it all.

Zhuge Dan is a member of Zhuge Liang's family. A serious and upright individual, he has trouble accepting opinions that clash with his own. He is known for opposing Sima Zhao.
--------------
* BlackSheep - Zhuge Liang is "The Dragon" while Zhuge Jin is "The Tiger". Dan? "The Dog".
* ButtMonkey[=/=]NoRespectGuy - Feels he's treated this way in Jin.
** Think that's bad? Select Zhuge Liang to be his ally in conquest mode. He will wonder if he's really related to him.
* {{Expy}} - He looks like he would be much more at home hanging with the [[Literature/{{Twilight}} Cullen family]] in Forks.
* [[PaperFanOfDoom Feathered Fan of Doom]] - Perhaps it runs in the family.
** CarryABigStick - In [=DW8=], he now wields a sword-sized baton.
* PerpetualFrowner
* FoeYay - With Sima Zhao
* HeWhoFightsMonsters: His desire to wrest Wei back from the Sima family and what he sees as Sima Zhao's laziness and incompetence ends with him siding with one fo Wei's enemies and his obsession makes him far more incompetent (and cruel) than Sima Zhao.
* HeyItsThatVoice - Kirimoto also voices [[Manga/DeathNote Aiber]] and [[SummerWars Riichi Jinnouchi]].
** In English he's [[MobileSuitGundamUnicorn Full Frontal]] & [[Anime/{{Monster}} Johan]].
* {{Jerkass}} - A [[TheMillstone general that actually harms his allies in his obstinance]] and is presented as having no redeeming qualities whatsoever.
** AlternateCharacterInterpretation: An officer loyal to the Emperor who strived to do what he thought right, but could never match up to expectations and snapped from the pressure. It's notable that his defining characteristic in Conquest Mode is HeroicSelfDeprecation.
** He also seemed to be well-respected and fairly considerate of his subordinates while he was serving within Jin's ranks.
* RonTheDeathEater - Has shades of this as a canon example, as he starts as an experienced general who others thought highly of (especially compared to Sima Zhao). Come near the end of Jin's story, he has [[FaceHeelTurn defected to Wu]], [[TookALevelInJerkass taken a level in Jerkassery]], and [[MoralEventHorizon executes one of his own generals for saying that Zhao was the better man compared to him]] while Zhao himself [[TheMessiah welcomes any of Dan's men that willingly surrender without any harm]].
* ShockAndAwe - His first musou
* TheStarscream - He does not highly regard Sima Zhao. [[spoiler: He eventually rebels, joins Wu, and ends up fighting Zhao]].
* [[spoiler:TakingYouWithMe - Does this to Sima Zhao by trapping him in a room and [[KillItWithFire setting it ablaze]].]]
* ThrowTheDogABone: He finally gets some genuine praise from a fellow strategist in [[WarriorsOrochi Warriors Orochi 3]]. That fellow strategist? ''[[CrowningMomentOfAwesome His cousin, Zhuge Liang himself.]]'' Made even better when you take the above BlackSheep description into account:
--->'''Zhuge Dan''': Master Zhuge Liang, [[HeroicSelfDeprecation I am a talentless dog]]...I have dirtied the name of our clan...

Guo Huai rose to prominence under Cao Pi and defended Wei many times from Jiang Wei's advances. He is an individual plagued by illness during the campaigns against Shu. Even with his weakened state, however, he is truly a reliable warrior to have on the battlefront. Loyal to Wei above all else, Guo Huai feels indebted to Xiahou Yuan and Sima Yi.
----------------
* AwesomeButImpractical - His "Desperado" Musou Attack causes ASSLOADS of damage, but its cooldown time is rather long... [[TheWoobie and rather depressing to watch]]...
* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette
* EnsembleDarkhorse - Surprisingly very popular in Japan. [[SelfFanservice He is often drawn extremely bishounen]].
* {{Expy}} - Has an appearance ''very'' similar to [[SamuraiWarriors Kuroda Kanbei]].
** To the point where, when the two meet during [[WarriorsOrochi Warriors Orochi 3]], [[HilarityEnsues Guo Huai assumes Kanbei is Death himself, finally come for him.]]
* GatlingGood - His arm cannon provides more ''[[MoreDakka dakka]]'' than everything else in the series '''combined.'''
* {{Goth}} - His appearance.
* HandicappedBadass - When off-duty, deals with his crippling IncurableCoughOfDeath by getting lots of healthy exercise in the fresh air. And by that we mean ''wrestling tigers''.

** An odd example. He's alive throughout a significant portion of the conflict, with his health utterly unchanging, [[spoiler:and when he dies, it's due to AnnoyingArrows]].
* LifeDrain - His second musou
* SkunkStripe - Two of them, in fact. Probably a result of DiseaseBleach.

A young, studious man who has the respectable ability to instantly read the battlefield. However, due to his personal arrogance, there aren't many fellow officers whom trust him. Opposite of Deng Ai in every respect, he has seething resentments for the veteran.
-------------------
* {{Bishounen}}
* {{Expy}} - One must wonder if Zhong Hui is [[CodeGeass going to be spin kicking a lot of people]].
* TheFightingNarcissist - He's talented, beautiful, and not afraid to flaunt it:
--> ''"I will not lose against dullards".''
* FoeYay - With Jiang Wei
** Not too surprising considering their subsequent (failed) rebellions against Wei/Jin in the novel after the surrender of Chengdu.
* FormFittingWardrobe
* TheFriendNobodyLikes - [[spoiler:Liu Shan's]] Legend stage implies him as this as in the Main Camp one officer states that hardly anyone ever liked him due to his arrogance and [[spoiler:his betrayal]] finally gives them an excuse to kill him.
* HairFlip - Yes, you have pretty hair. Stop touching it.
* HeyItsThatVoice - Although it may seem absurd, his English voice is Quinton Flynn. So it's only natural that [[Characters/KingdomHeartsOrganizationXIII you want to equip him with the chakrams now.]] Also, he's formerly [[Anime/DigimonSavers a partner with Agumon.]]
* HoYay - With Deng Ai
* InsufferableGenius - None of his talent and learning justifies Hui's sheer arrogance.
* {{Jerkass}} - Due to his mountain-sized ego, he tends to be a huge asshole to pretty much everyone who isn't him.
* [[DualWielding Quintuple Wielding]] [[ImprobableUseOfAWeapon Improbably]] - Wields five ''flying'' swords.
* TheRival - Considers Deng Ai a rival. Deng Ai [[UnknownRival doesn't seem to notice.]]
* ShortHairWithTail
* StormOfBlades - His musou attacks.
* TheStrategist
* TheStarscream - His ego was so big that he naturally rebelled against Jin shortly after the fall of Shu, as chronicled in the Legend Mode in ''Xtreme Legends''. (In the Story Mode, which concludes with the capitulation of Shu, Zhong Hui has always been a loyal subordinate of Wei/Jin despite his acrimony with Deng Ai). His betrayal also pops up in some legendary missions in the Conquest Mode, such as Wang Yuanji's (since in the novel she predicted it) and Deng Ai's (as Hui and Jiang Wei defamed him to start it off.) He's also the only one who's not allied to Orochi or Resistance in WarriorsOrochi and tries to create his own kingdom.
* ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill - [[StormOfBlades Dear Lord, his]] [[LimitBreak Musou.]] His dizzy charge attack also involves pinning the unfortunate target in place with one of his swords while he impales them with the other four.

* CatchPhrase[=/=]VerbalTic - "Well well well..."
* ConflictingLoyalty - Torn between his loyalty to his family and to Jin. [[spoiler:It eventually leads him to flee, fearing for his life after Sima Yi has his relative Cao Shuang killed.]]
* DeadpanSnarker - In the Japanese version. Following Wei's collapse he becomes much more sarcastic towards his [[spoiler:former allies]], responding dryly to all their accusations against him.
* FanNickname - "Xiahou Bieber", due to his perceived facial resemblance to Music/JustinBieber.
* GetItOverWith - Says this to Guo Huai before the latter [[spoiler:is killed by archers]].

* IDidWhatIHadToDo - And he's never looking back or regretting his actions.
* ImprobableWeaponUser - For [=DW7E=], Ba switches weapons to what the game calls a Siege Spear, a two-handed mechanical contraption with a sharp, stabby, slashy point and built-in jets, which must be activated by pulling back on a lever.

He is known for his maniacal laughter and insulting friend and foe alike as "Fool!" or "Imbecile!" Prideful of his intellect and believing that he has an unsurpassed wit, he regards Zhuge Liang as a worthy opponent.

** This is his third role in KOEI's historical Musou titles (previously being [[SamuraiWarriors Chousokabe Motochika]] and [[WarriorsOrochi Orochi]]).

* HugeGuyTinyGirl - Positively towers over Yuanji.
* IdiotHair - Minor case, not very noticeable outside cutscenes in [=DW7=].
* TheMessiah - Shows shades of this.
** He even borders on being a MartialPacifist near the end!
* RedOniBlueOni - The Red Oni (happy go lucky) compared with his brother.
* TheScrappy - InUniverse. It is highly implied that the majority (If not all) of Wei's officers hold him in low regard do to his laziness (As the battle of Dong Xing shows). It doesn't help that Sima Shi gained the favor of many influential officers after he [[TakeThatScrappy demoted Zhao for his failure at Dong Xing]] (Despite him and Zhuge Dan being both at fault). However, he does manages to rescue himself from the Scrappy Heap after he steps up [[spoiler:(following Shi's death).]]
* StoicWoobie - Loses his father and his brother in quick succession and is clearly torn up about it, but doesn't let this stop his advance.

Wang Yuanji is a caring and gentle woman to the weak and innocent. With her husband Sima Zhao, and any authority figure however, she spares them no sympathy and is rather curt.
-----------------
* ActionGirl
* BattleCouple - With Sima Zhao
* CleavageWindow - In her default [=DW7=] outfit.
* DefrostingIceQueen - Slowly becomes more tolerant and respectful of Sima Zhao, and by the end they seem quite happy together.
* ElegantGothicLolita - Her outfit evokes this, although semi-subverted since she isn't a loli.
** PimpedOutDress in her fantasy dlc costume and then...A {{Joshikousei}} esq ensemble.
* EnsembleDarkhorse - Very popular with both the Japanese and Western fanbases. [[http://www.pixiv.net/tags.php?tag=%E7%8E%8B%E5%85%83%E5%A7%AB She has the second most fanart of the new characters introduced in [=DW7=]]]. Trailing only Sima Zhao. She even [[http://www.gamecity.ne.jp/smusou6/enquete/ won 1st place in the popularity poll]]; note that she's the only (new) female characters who made it to the top 10, beating veterans such as Sun Shangxiang or Zhenji.

** In the English version, [[VideoGame/ValkyrieProfile2Silmeria Hrist]], [[{{Persona3}} Mitsuru Kirijo]], and [[SamuraiWarriors [=Ranmaru/Oichi=]]]
* HugeGuyTinyGirl - Maybe justified, since she seems to be a bit younger than him, but she's still very petite next to her strapping husband.
* LadyOfWar
* {{Mukokuseki}}: She provides the series' most blatant example, sporting entirely incongruent amber eyes and ash blonde hair.
* NiceGirl- Most of the time... she IS a {{Tsundere}} after all.
* [[KnifeNut Knife]] [[PaperFanOfDoom Fan Of Doom]] - She wields throwing daggers, folded into a unique fan.
* TheSmurfettePrinciple - She's the only female in a kingdom with one big CastFullOfPrettyBoys, until mom-in-law Chunhua is introduced.
* {{Tsundere}} - Type B. She is usually rather curt towards Zhao, but gets embarrassed when he teases or compliments her. On other people, however, she's pretty nice. [[WordOfGod The developer]] did say she is based on the {{Tsundere}} archetype. And... her quote on being chosen on [[EnsembleDarkhorse the most popular character ever]] says it all.

Zhuge Dan is a member of Zhuge Liang's family. A serious and upright individual, he has trouble accepting opinions that clash with his own. He is known for opposing Sima Zhao.
--------------
* BlackSheep - Zhuge Liang is "The Dragon" while Zhuge Jin is "The Tiger". Dan? "The Dog".
* ButtMonkey[=/=]NoRespectGuy - Feels he's treated this way in Jin.
** Think that's bad? Select Zhuge Liang to be his ally in conquest mode. He will wonder if he's really related to him.
* {{Expy}} - He looks like he would be much more at home hanging with the [[Literature/{{Twilight}} Cullen family]] in Forks.
* [[PaperFanOfDoom Feathered Fan of Doom]] - Perhaps it runs in the family.
** CarryABigStick - In [=DW8=], he now wields a sword-sized baton.
* PerpetualFrowner
* FoeYay - With Sima Zhao
* HeWhoFightsMonsters: His desire to wrest Wei back from the Sima family and what he sees as Sima Zhao's laziness and incompetence ends with him siding with one fo Wei's enemies and his obsession makes him far more incompetent (and cruel) than Sima Zhao.
* HeyItsThatVoice - Kirimoto also voices [[Manga/DeathNote Aiber]] and [[SummerWars Riichi Jinnouchi]].
** In English he's [[MobileSuitGundamUnicorn Full Frontal]] & [[Anime/{{Monster}} Johan]].
* {{Jerkass}} - A [[TheMillstone general that actually harms his allies in his obstinance]] and is presented as having no redeeming qualities whatsoever.
** AlternateCharacterInterpretation: An officer loyal to the Emperor who strived to do what he thought right, but could never match up to expectations and snapped from the pressure. It's notable that his defining characteristic in Conquest Mode is HeroicSelfDeprecation.
** He also seemed to be well-respected and fairly considerate of his subordinates while he was serving within Jin's ranks.
* RonTheDeathEater - Has shades of this as a canon example, as he starts as an experienced general who others thought highly of (especially compared to Sima Zhao). Come near the end of Jin's story, he has [[FaceHeelTurn defected to Wu]], [[TookALevelInJerkass taken a level in Jerkassery]], and [[MoralEventHorizon executes one of his own generals for saying that Zhao was the better man compared to him]] while Zhao himself [[TheMessiah welcomes any of Dan's men that willingly surrender without any harm]].
* ShockAndAwe - His first musou
* TheStarscream - He does not highly regard Sima Zhao. [[spoiler: He eventually rebels, joins Wu, and ends up fighting Zhao]].
* [[spoiler:TakingYouWithMe - Does this to Sima Zhao by trapping him in a room and [[KillItWithFire setting it ablaze]].]]
* ThrowTheDogABone: He finally gets some genuine praise from a fellow strategist in [[WarriorsOrochi Warriors Orochi 3]]. That fellow strategist? ''[[CrowningMomentOfAwesome His cousin, Zhuge Liang himself.]]'' Made even better when you take the above BlackSheep description into account:
--->'''Zhuge Dan''': Master Zhuge Liang, [[HeroicSelfDeprecation I am a talentless dog]]...I have dirtied the name of our clan...
--->'''Zhuge Liang''': Dragons and tigers obey no one, yet dogs are forever loyal.
--->'''Zhuge Liang''': If you are a dog, Zhuge Dan, then you are the pride of our clan. [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming There's nothing to be ashamed of.]]

Guo Huai rose to prominence under Cao Pi and defended Wei many times from Jiang Wei's advances. He is an individual plagued by illness during the campaigns against Shu. Even with his weakened state, however, he is truly a reliable warrior to have on the battlefront. Loyal to Wei above all else, Guo Huai feels indebted to Xiahou Yuan and Sima Yi.
----------------
* AwesomeButImpractical - His "Desperado" Musou Attack causes ASSLOADS of damage, but its cooldown time is rather long... [[TheWoobie and rather depressing to watch]]...
* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette
* EnsembleDarkhorse - Surprisingly very popular in Japan. [[SelfFanservice He is often drawn extremely bishounen]].
* {{Expy}} - Has an appearance ''very'' similar to [[SamuraiWarriors Kuroda Kanbei]].
** To the point where, when the two meet during [[WarriorsOrochi Warriors Orochi 3]], [[HilarityEnsues Guo Huai assumes Kanbei is Death himself, finally come for him.]]
* GatlingGood - His arm cannon provides more ''[[MoreDakka dakka]]'' than everything else in the series '''combined.'''
* {{Goth}} - His appearance.
* HandicappedBadass - When off-duty, deals with his crippling IncurableCoughOfDeath by getting lots of healthy exercise in the fresh air. And by that we mean ''wrestling tigers''.
* [[IllGirl Ill Man]]
* IncurableCoughOfDeath
** An odd example. He's alive throughout a significant portion of the conflict, with his health utterly unchanging, [[spoiler:and when he dies, it's due to AnnoyingArrows]].
* LifeDrain - His second musou
* SkunkStripe - Two of them, in fact. Probably a result of DiseaseBleach.
* UndyingLoyalty - To Wei. It's probably for the best that he didn't live long enough to see where the Sima clan would take the country.
* TheWoobie - You can't help but feel bad for him.

Born: 225\\

Japanese spelling: Shoukai
Height: 5'9" (175cm)
A young, studious man who has the respectable ability to instantly read the battlefield. However, due to his personal arrogance, there aren't many fellow officers whom trust him. Opposite of Deng Ai in every respect, he has seething resentments for the veteran.
-------------------
* {{Bishounen}}
* {{Expy}} - One must wonder if Zhong Hui is [[CodeGeass going to be spin kicking a lot of people]].
* TheFightingNarcissist - He's talented, beautiful, and not afraid to flaunt it:
--> ''"I will not lose against dullards".''
* FoeYay - With Jiang Wei
** Not too surprising considering their subsequent (failed) rebellions against Wei/Jin in the novel after the surrender of Chengdu.
* FormFittingWardrobe
* TheFriendNobodyLikes - [[spoiler:Liu Shan's]] Legend stage implies him as this as in the Main Camp one officer states that hardly anyone ever liked him due to his arrogance and [[spoiler:his betrayal]] finally gives them an excuse to kill him.
* HairFlip - Yes, you have pretty hair. Stop touching it.
* HeyItsThatVoice - Although it may seem absurd, his English voice is Quinton Flynn. So it's only natural that [[Characters/KingdomHeartsOrganizationXIII you want to equip him with the chakrams now.]] Also, he's formerly [[Anime/DigimonSavers a partner with Agumon.]]
* HoYay - With Deng Ai
* InsufferableGenius - None of his talent and learning justifies Hui's sheer arrogance.
* {{Jerkass}} - Due to his mountain-sized ego, he tends to be a huge asshole to pretty much everyone who isn't him.
* [[DualWielding Quintuple Wielding]] [[ImprobableUseOfAWeapon Improbably]] - Wields five ''flying'' swords.
* TheRival - Considers Deng Ai a rival. Deng Ai [[UnknownRival doesn't seem to notice.]]
* ShortHairWithTail
* StormOfBlades - His musou attacks.
* TheStrategist
* TheStarscream - His ego was so big that he naturally rebelled against Jin shortly after the fall of Shu, as chronicled in the Legend Mode in ''Xtreme Legends''. (In the Story Mode, which concludes with the capitulation of Shu, Zhong Hui has always been a loyal subordinate of Wei/Jin despite his acrimony with Deng Ai). His betrayal also pops up in some legendary missions in the Conquest Mode, such as Wang Yuanji's (since in the novel she predicted it) and Deng Ai's (as Hui and Jiang Wei defamed him to start it off.) He's also the only one who's not allied to Orochi or Resistance in WarriorsOrochi and tries to create his own kingdom.
* ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill - [[StormOfBlades Dear Lord, his]] [[LimitBreak Musou.]] His dizzy charge attack also involves pinning the unfortunate target in place with one of his swords while he impales them with the other four.

Deng Ai is a Wei general who once acted as a minster in office. After witnessing Sima Yi's intellect, however, he decided to return to the battlefront and watch over the troops during the campaigns against Shu. He has a hobby of looking at maps and, to preserve their accuracy, he is cautious of the war changing the geography.
------------------
* BadassBookworm - Former clerk. No, really.
* TheBigGuy
* CaptainErsatz - Looks like [[FinalFantasyX Jecht]] somehow wound himself in Ancient China.
* [[ThisIsADrill Drill]] [[JoustingLance Lance]] - His weapon. Given that he's [[GeniusBruiser a skilled engineer with an intuitive understanding of battlefield terrain]], it's very appropriate.
* GeniusBruiser
* HoYay - With Guo Huai and Zhong Hui.
* MightyGlacier - Deng Ai's Lance weapon set is pretty slow, but powerful and is near guaranteed to cause Guard Break.
* RatedMForManly - Like Wang Yuanji, amongst Jin's CastFullOfPrettyBoys, Deng Ai is another oddity: he's the only muscular non-{{Bishonen}} there.
* [[SelfMadeMan Self Made General]]
* TheStoic
* TheStrategist - Specifically, he has a natural talent with placing troops according to the terrain.

* ArchEnemy - [[spoiler:Becomes one to all of Jin after he defects for Shu. He usually protects Jiang Wei]].
* {{BFS}} - It's bigger than he is!
* BigDamnHeroes - Jumps in out of nowhere to save [[spoiler:Jiang Wei]].
** He does it again in [=WO3=] when his dad's in a pinch. BackToBackBadasses ensues.
* {{Bishounen}}
* BolivianArmyEnding - Nearly got into one in his Legend Mode chapter... until the end where [[spoiler:Jiang Wei]] bailed him out.
* CatchPhrase[=/=]VerbalTic - "Well well well..."
* ConflictingLoyalty - Torn between his loyalty to his family and to Jin. [[spoiler:It eventually leads him to flee, fearing for his life after Sima Yi has his relative Cao Shuang killed.]]
* DeadpanSnarker - In the Japanese version. Following Wei's collapse he becomes much more sarcastic towards his [[spoiler:former allies]], responding dryly to all their accusations against him.
* FanNickname - "Xiahou Bieber", due to his perceived facial resemblance to Music/JustinBieber.
* GetItOverWith - Says this to Guo Huai before the latter [[spoiler:is killed by archers]].
* HeyItsThatVoice - It's [[MazingerZ Kouji Kabuto]]!...well, the one from [[ShinMazinger the new series, anyways]]. And also he's the '''[[Anime/TheIdolmaster PRODUCER]]!''' Also in the English version, he was [[AxisPowersHetalia half-Greek]] and he's formerly a member of a [[OuranHighSchoolHostClub host club.]]
** TalkingToHimself - Vic also voices Jia Xu.
* HoYay - With Jiang Wei.
* IAmNotPretty - In [=WO3=], after Magoichi calls him handsome, Ba denies it and says he has no confidence in his looks.
* IDidWhatIHadToDo - And he's never looking back or regretting his actions.
* ImprobableWeaponUser - For [=DW7E=], Ba switches weapons to what the game calls a Siege Spear, a two-handed mechanical contraption with a sharp, stabby, slashy point and built-in jets, which must be activated by pulling back on a lever.
* [[spoiler:KilledOffForReal - By [[TheStarscream Zhong Hui]], no less.]]
* LikeFatherLikeSon - He was given Yuan's eyes and laid back, playful personality, although Ba is certainly less hot blooded than his dad (which fits his heavier weapon).
* [[spoiler:LovableTraitor]]
* OlderThanTheyLook - Though he's by no means ''old''.
* ShockAndAwe - His Musou attack creates a devastating lightning bolt.
* TwentyFourHourArmour - Can sometimes be heard complaining about how heavy it is too.
* WeHardlyKnewYe - [[spoiler:He defects very early in Jin's Kingdom Mode and then appears a lot as an opponent fighting for Shu]].
* [[UglyGuysHotDaughter Ugly Guy's Hot Son]] - Yuan may not be hideous, but he's no looker either. And ''damn'' this kid is gorgeous!
** Lampshaded by Zhang Fei (who ironically has his own attractive child) complaining that Ba bears no resemblance to his father at all. Said attractive child is related to Yuan and Ba, no less.
** Even Yuan himself seems to acknowledge this in [=WO3=].
-->'''Xiahou Yuan''': "Just when I was wondering who this handsome guy is, turns out it's my son!"
* YouCantGoHomeAgain - [[spoiler:After his betrayal]]. This seems to bother him a little, since he feels he's let his father down by [[spoiler:siding with the kingdom responsible for his death]] -- something that [[spoiler:Guo Huai]] in particular strongly holds against him.
