Miao Ying rules over Northern Cathay from her seat of power in Nan-Gau as commander of the armies of the Great Bastion. Cold and aloof even by the standards of a Dragon, Miao Ying has stoically undertaken this most solemn of duties for many centuries, ever since the defence of the northern border was entrusted to her by the Celestial Dragon. Because of the weight of duty she carries and the power she wields, the Storm Dragon is widely considered the favourite of the Celestial Dragon by her many siblings, and Miao Ying lords her position over them, often preferring to stand apart when they gather together.
