History
Date of Birth: September 12th, 1984
Home: Cam Pha, Quang Ninh, Vietnam
Family: Dang Phi Uy and Lien Tho (parents), My Huyen (older brother/sister), Xuan Hieu (birth name)
Awakening: Preordainment (born a boy in a small industrial city in northern Vietnam, orphaned after a mining accident; he and his brother were smuggled out of the country by gangsters to become child sex workers in Hong Kong, where they were regularly beaten and abused; his older brother fought back one day but it resulted in their near-murders, their throats slit and their bodies tossed in a dumpster to bleed out and be forgotten; this horrible NDE Awakened both Dang siblings), 1996
Mentor: Choon Lee
The Test: Trial by Influence (their future sifu Choon Lee found them, rescued and healed them, and adopted them into the Wu-Keng; the juk ak was soon arranged for the siblings and their transformation into young girls completed as they studied the folk magic rituals with their a'ma; they hated the foot-binding, as any children would, but accepted it and the gender change as part of the price they had to pay for their lives)
Comrades: Dang My Huyen
Key Event #1: Personal Tragedy (they adapted to the witchcraft and street life, glad to be free of the whoring but terrified of the demonic taint and pact with Ku of the Thousand Tears forced upon them, as a choice of "serve a demon prince or die" was no choice at all)
Key Event #2: War (they were forced into conflict with the Kowloon Devils, the Gui Ren vampires who often opposed the Wu-Keng; the brutality terrified both siblings and they backed out of and avoided combat whenever possible)
Key Event #3: Personal Tragedy (as a consequence, abuse was heaped on the two; Canh was beaten and forced to service the older witches)
Key Event #4: Treachery (the siblings never committed to serving Ku or any other Prince of the Slain and began to secretly develop their magick together to avoid full thralldom and infernalism)
Key Event #5: Awe & Wonder (they transitioned fully to female bodies to control their own lives, a key element they long sought, plus it allowed them to better balance internal Yin and Yang and oppose demonic taint)
Transition: Shift in Nature (now organically but still very secretly among the Man Mae Phanx rebels of the Wu-Keng, they volunteered to assist a mixed cabal of shen abroad in America, the better to get out from under the elder witches' thumbs while their loyalty at least was unquestioned)
Xin-Hei-Jia (Sanctum)

Weakness
Too Far Gone?
Though she and her sister have resisted committing to the ultimate sin of demonic investment with any Prince of the Slain, the taint lingers. And the Wu-Keng will be coming for them someday.
Likelihood of Corruption
Very high.
They would refuse full commitment to diabolism but they have long been tortured, broken, and abused into cooperation.
