CE190, Rise of the Warlords - Gentleman of the Han
Though the Han crumbles, its spirit and legacy endures through its many branches and descendants. Liu Biao holds this lineage closely, serving with unwavering sense of duty. An accomplished administrator, and ever the traditionalist, he wishes to preserve the status quo, earnestly hoping that the chaos will abate and reason will prevail.

Yet that may be set to change; as one of the few warlords powerful enough to resist Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, the day may come where lines may need to be drawn. Though Liu Biao wishes ernestly for peace, such a future may need to be paid for in blood...
