A Jin advisor who has served the Sima family since the days of Wei (his father Jia Kui was also a Wei official), Jia Chong continues to serve them all the way through the formation of Jin. As the Sima family's political officer, he is in charge of negotiations, alliances and the handling of prisoners. His deep, sincere loyalty to the Sima family contrasts starkly with his methods, both pragmatic and often cruel, but nonetheless he has an essential role in the eventual unification of all China. Historically, his daughter Jia Nanfeng was Sima Zhao's granddaughter-in-law, and Sima Zhong's (Emperor Hui's) first empress; Nanfeng's mother Guo Huai was a niece of the similarly-named Guo Huai. [[note]]Lady Guo was Jia's second wife; Nanfeng was born when Chong was about 40 years old. Lady Jia married Sima Zhong in 272CE, when she was about 15.[[/note]] Another daughter Jia Bao (mother was Lady Li Wan, Jia's first wife) was Sima Zhao's daughter-in-law as she married Sima You (who was made his uncle Sima Shi's heir, as Shi had no sons of his own).

** He definitely ''was'' this historically; Sima Shi was a very fine scholar of his time and eventually, when he was forced to act as the regent in the Wei court, he handled it very efficiently. Not to mention he was also the only person his father, Sima Yi, trusted at all for any of his plans.

* HistoricalVillainUpgrade: Sima Yi was historically noted to regularly express sympathy and concern for the wellbeing of the people during the chaos of the Three Kingdoms era. It's present but often downplayed in his ''Warriors'' counterpart even as his characterization has evolved to be less of an EvilOverlord. Of course, this is mostly a carryover from the novel that vilified him (granted, that happened to most of Wei in the novel, anyway). Historically, Sima Yi was more complex; he's either a WellIntentionedExtremist at best or NecessarilyEvil at worst. [[note]]It is worth noting that he served three generations of the Cao family loyally before he decided that perhaps, his clan may have a decent shot at the throne, given that he was about 60 when Cao Rui died, Shi was about 30, Zhao was about 28 and grandson Yan was 2-3 years old.[[/note]]
