CHINATOWN WARS CHARACTERS:

HUANG LEE:

A spoiled rich kid from Hong Kong, Huang Lee owes his status as a Triad member to his father, a Triad boss from Kowloon. After the murder of his father, Huang is called to Liberty City by his Uncle Wu "Kenny" Lee to deliver a family 'heirloom", the Yu Jian sword, to secure his family's claim to the leadership of the Triad gangs. But what was supposed to be a weekend of table service and strippers turns into a dangerous adventure after arriving at Liberty City Airport only to be hijacked, robbed of his sword, and left for dead. Huang will have to dig deep into the rotten core of Liberty City - and deep within himself -- to avenge his father's murder and reclaim his family's honor.

KENNY LEE:

The leader of the Lee clan within the Triad organizations of Liberty City, Uncle Kenny is from the old school. He likes his suits double breasted, his platitudes from a fortune cookie, and his payments in cash. Uncle Kenny wants control of the Triads, and there is little that he won't ask Huang to do for him to get it.

LING:

Ling is a street smart Chinatown girl whose beauty belies her deadly skills. She serves as Uncle Kenny's master at arms, and provides necessary muscle in a town that only respects money and brute force. Trained in the martial arts and deadly with all manner of small arms, it is Ling who teaches Huang the combat skills he will need to survive on the streets of Liberty City.

HSIN AND CHAN JAOMING:

Hsin Jaoming has ruled the Triad gangs of Liberty City for over twenty years with an iron fist. But now nearing retirement, he is looking for a worthy successor with as much ambition and brains as himself. Unfortunately, his playboy son Chan leaves much to be desired as a leader; willful, drug-addled and stupid, Chan buys his friends and makes his enemies with little caution and even less thought.

ZHOU MING:

Relative newcomer to the Triads of Liberty City, Zhou is the dark horse candidate to succeed Hsin Jaoming. Audacious, egotistical and sociopathic, Zhou is a dangerous schemer with power on his mind, and blood on his hands.

WADE HESTON:

A dirty narcotics detective with the IAD on his tail and a monkey on his back, Wade Heston forms a dubious alliance with Huang Lee to find the mysterious FIB rat who has set up both Huang and Wade. Lying, stealing and murdering are all in a day’s work for this member of Liberty City’s finest.

RUDY D'AVANZO:

A mobster of the Italian variety, Rudy crosses the aisle to do business with Huang out of necessity – he too is being squeezed by FIB informants, and needs Huang’s help to work outside his compromised circle to ferret out the rat.
