Talk:Shao Jun

Name mean.
I thought I would add just some info on what the names mean: Shao translates into meaning "laughter" (but only if used as a surname) and Jun translates to mean "truth". In chinese numerology Shao represents 2 and Jun represents 7. Not sure if this is of any use but it is kind of interesting. -- ► Kaloneous ◄♣HelpDesk♣ 19:51, August 31, 2011 (UTC)

Additional info:

Jun can be written using different kanji characters and can mean: So falcon seems to be a good candidate too but it is Japanese not Chinese. -- ► Kaloneous ◄♣HelpDesk♣ 13:17, September 5, 2011 (UTC)

Are we 100% sure that she is, in fact, Chinese? Otherwise the article chould probably say "with East Asian heritage" or something like that. GuustaavS 20:46, September 1, 2011 (UTC)

Shao Jun is a Chinese name. Would be misleading if she wasn't Chinese. -- Master Sima Yi 20:47, September 1, 2011 (UTC)

When flipping the number "2" for Shau and "7" for Jun you get the famous and myterious number "72" Pheopheonix1234 22:23, September 1, 2011 (UTC)pheopheonix1234

@Pheo, it is definately interesting but we should wait to make any assumptions until we know more. Not long with only 74ish days till the games release. 22:30, September 1, 2011 (UTC)

Next Game
Is anyone else thinking that she might play a role in the next game? 71.7.225.215 02:03, November 28, 2011 (UTC)

I don't believe that she will be the next ancestor. Probably because she seems too close to Ezio's time. That doesn't mean to say that there won't be any mentions of her however. Slate Vesper 03:56, November 28, 2011 (UTC)

not nessesarily the next ancestor. just the next game. 71.7.225.215 01:41, November 30, 2011 (UTC)

I actually think she'll be the next ancestor. After all, her task (raising an Assassin brotherhood in China and combating the Emperor and the Templars) seems perfect for the historical portion of an Assassin's Creed game. That's not even getting into how her presumed nemesis, Jiajing, is explicitly mentioned in Subject 16's Cryptic Messages. Plus, even though her lifetime was very close to Ezio's, Ming Dynasty China was very different, both artchitecturally and culturally (After several games with Christianity as a major part of the cultural background, imagine how much of a breath of fresh air Taoist China would be) from the Italian Renaissance. 86.131.127.154 07:28, December 9, 2011 (UTC)
