ZHANG TAI-XI

Reclusive blacksmith living in the woods with a strange creature.

Zhang Tai-Xi (Tai) is a skilled blacksmith living deep in the woods near Riverly, a town known for its lively markets. His work is sold through Grandma Yu's smithy shop. He is gentle but guarded, and lives a solitary life with his companion, Xiao-Hei. Xiao-Hei is an expressive black blob. Not much is known of it, other than that it loves TangHuLu (candied fruit snack). Both Tai-Xi and Xiao-Hei seem to be hiding something.
