Leixia Discussion Thread

[Mage]

X still lives on in Leixia. I didn't know she was from Luoyang until today.

 

[kyrt]

I guess it is tolerable. So her play style is likely going to be X's. The question that now is on everyone's mind is who is the father and why does she have Kilik's necklace if he isn't the father. curious.

 

[EbrietasSs]

her father is a general of the ming empire, probably some side character we'll never see XD

 

[Neclord]

She is really cute. :)
Looks better than her mother imo. :)

In some desperate attempt to explain why Leixia isn't Kilik's daughter, but has his necklace anyway, I am going to say that Xianghua was already pregnant with Leixia, but lied to everyone and said that it was her husband(the general)'s.

 

[EbrietasSs]

they wouldn't go there me thinks

They'd never please the most loyal fans, unfortunately. This is why it hasn't been confirmed who the hell Hilde's babydaddy is. (And why it isn't confirmed to be Siegfried, either)

 

[EbrietasSs]

y'know, most male fans nowadays would want all of the female characters to remain virgins for life. fans are getting creepier than ever lol

So Leixia has Xianghua's 1K (Circle Breaker), 44B, 6B and 44B+K unblockable. So she has a number of signature moves from Xianghua dating back to the original Soul Calibur. Pretty cool.

As for who her father may or may not be... I think we should remember Xianghua's and Kilik's endings and that there was probably some variant there that had Kilik vanish and not Xianghua. Leixia is 15 years old, which means that two years had to have passed between when Soul Edge was sealed/destroyed/etc (and when Kilik disappeared?) from the time Leixia was born. Then again, her bio does state she has a brother... so...

I'll custom-color her to be the same as Xianguha's 2P in SCIV.

 

[blindhobo777]

She's wearing less clothes than in any of her mom's outfits.

Also wtf at no Kilik/X sexy time.

Her SCIV had way less clothing on.

 

[CalibursEdge]

Maybe her brother was raised by Kilik and has his style? Just a thought. No flaming please. But if there is reason to believe or disagree with this then please explain why. =P

"The strong-willed and cheerful daughter of Xianghua. A princess longing for adventure and a chance encounter."

Name: Leixia Yan
Sex: Female
Age: 15 years
Hometown: Luoyang / Ming Dynasty
Height: 149cm
Weight: 41kg
Date of birth: July 07
Blood type: B-
Weapons used: Chinese Sword
Weapon Name: Ichijousei (Not quite sure how to translate this into Chinese)
School name: Mother's Swordsmanship (Lu-Sheng-su Jian-style swordsmanship ).
Human Relations: Father: Ming Imperial General Wu Jin Yan
Mother: Xianghua Chai
Brother: Lei Shen

Something odd about the way the wrote her relationship to her mother Xianghua and why her mother's maiden name is listed. Can't quite translate it, but we probably won't have to wait long.

EDIT: Brother's name is Lei Shen. Or very close to that sound. I'm not quite sure how to romanize it from Chinese.

 

[Windstar]

I'm told the romanization of Yan should be Yien to get closer to the proper sound.

 

[Gabedamien]

Father: Ming Imperial General Wu Jin Yan
Brother: Lei Shen

Huh, did not see either of those coming.

 

[Windstar]

Another romanization of Xianghua's brother's name could be Lei Xin or Leixin. Much like Leixia could be written like Lei Xia.

 

[Bailster]

Love her - she looks great :) A worthy successor!
I also think it's good that she looks Asian, and has brown/black hair and eyes, like Asian people actually have, rather than pandering to the silly principles of mukokuseki. I'm looking at you Natsu!!
