Bìxié
Background
The Imperial State Yu Jing proudly presents, through the military technology company Dágang, Bìxié - the oriental icon in the HexaDome of Aristeia! It is a delayed response to the message of superiority and supremacy that PanOceania has been sending to the entire Human Sphere each time Maximus is showcased in combat. To create a national symbol in the show with the greatest media coverage, Dágang has taken its starting point from rich Yu Jing folklore, with the aim of creating a recognizable figure with strong roots among her people. For more than two thousand years, there are written references in Chinese history about the Bìxié, hybrid creature that resembles a winged lion, considered the protector of Feng Shui practitioners. Its power to repel evil spirits and attract good fortune is the reason why they appear atop the humblest homes to great palaces, like that of the Emperor. Dágang designed for Bìxié to be a light armor, painted in jade and gold ─ the colors of Yu Jing─ that allows its wearer to jump and swing from wall to wall, just as if it were flying, thanks to a system with twin hooks attached to the hips. To keep the aspect of a winged lion, the legs are cybernetic, with a grip system on the toes the shape of claws that Bìxié can use to remain attached to the wall at a horizontal angle, vigilant as the mythological creature that it represents. The Empire-State had the perfect symbol that combined tradition with the most advanced Yu Jing technology. In order to find the perfect candidate to dress and succeed in Aristeia!, the Emperor's House appealed to thousands of young people who flocked to the tests. In addition to patriotism in different doses, the aspirants harbored a bittersweet mixture of fear of possible reprisals for contempt, in the hope of obtaining in exchange for their sacrifice, a better life for their families. The chosen one lost her name and surname, and to be henceforth called Hou Xia, which means "Princess Dawn". It was not the only thing to be sacrificed: for her final transformation into Bìxié she had to lose her legs from the knees down. Dágang presents their champion this season, a young woman who has been born again from the ashes, overcoming the wounds of war suffered during an aggressive border assault in Svalarheima by PanOceanian forces, where she lost both legs. Xia has come to claim the place that rightfully belongs to Yu Jing and has publicly challenged Gata, the PanOceanian star, to see who of the two is the best player in Aristeia![1]
If you run, I jump. If you jump, I fly. You can’t hide from me, kitty.
Bìxié is the greatest rival of Gata, her nemesis in the HexaDome. She’s the national symbol Yu Jing uses to denounce the abusive position of the PanOceanian giant in the Human Sphere.[2]

Bìxié is the national champion of Yu Jing, a great symbol and icon of a nation. All the propaganda and financial machinery of the Eastern state is at the service of the company Dágang. She aims to demonstrate her superiority to the entire Human Sphere and, above all, to their rival power, PanOceania. This mix of tradition and technology will leave the audience speechless when they see Bìxié in action.[4]
In Aristeia, Bìxié has "Yi's Visiion," an ability that makes her immune to Smoke and is designed her to work well with Kozmo and Taowu. Her primary defining ability is "Doumu's Gift," allowing her to jump across the map. She has the "Light of the Emperor" ability, which can inflict the Targeted state on enemies.
All of these abilities are reflected in her Infinity profile, with Multispectral Visor, Super-Jump, and Forward Observer.
