Yang Chao - The Wandering Alchemy Peddler
(name meaning "Surpassing the Sun")
Background
Chao hailed from a small village 120 miles north east of Shuto. As a child, he was very good at identifying different type of herbs. He used this skill to create salves and potions that he sold to the villagers.
At the age of 17, he decided to go to the capital city and make his fortune there. He found that making a fortune in the city is alot harder than he thought. He apprenticed at one of the alchemist guild in Shuto, studying and working to make ends meet. 20 years later, Chao has became a very adept alchemist and chemist. One day, he realized that his talent is bound by the city walls. He then decided that he needed to go outside the city and hone his skill by experimenting with different plants and elements. Because there are alot of small villages strewn across the land, he was able to survive despite having little survival skills.
At the age of 58, Chao decided to return to Shuto and expand the knowledge he has found during his travels by catching up on the latest alchemical technology from the guild.
