 * Shang, Ten Thunders Totem (Misaki)**

=__Overview__= Shang the magical flying fox (okay, okay it's called a Kitsune)! Some love him, some hate him, but there's no denying his utility. He's also very killy for a totem.

=__Mobility__= As stated above: he's a magical flying fox! Very few things in the amazing world of Malifaux are naturally more mobile than he. He has a very respectable walk of 6 and charge of 9, coupled with flying.

=__Offense__= Shang has both a claw strike and a ranged attack! His ranged attack has a blast at the end, but only does 3 damage at severe (with 1 blast). What really makes his offense pop is the Flay trigger on his claws. If this triggers he can hit for very respectable damage, especially for a totem!

=__Resilience__= Unfortunately flying foxes aren't very resilient, nothing to write home about here. If you aim anything more than a gentle breeze at good ole Shang he'll die. He has an average defense and a low wound count - though he does have a decent willpower.

=__Magical Extension__= Shang can only magically extend one spell: Downburst. It can be great at times, but usually you'll only cast it through Shang to free up Misaki or some other friendly unit tied into melee combat (a utility which should not be overlooked).

=__Tips and Tricks__= Shang has two main tricks up his sleeve (three if you count flay on his claws): Rush of Magic and Lucky Charm.

Rush of Magic allows you to draw one extra card and then discard a card at the Draw Phase. Lucky Charm allows Misaki to reflip one of her initial duel flips at the cost of Shang taking 1 wound. This ability //can// kill Shang; it can't be used if Misaki flips the dreaded Black Joker.

=__Playing Against Shang__= Like most totems Shang isn't much of a threat in combat, despite his great damage output for a totem. His average defense and low wounds mean that if you can get a shot off on him he's probably going to die. Especially if the Lucky Charm skill has been used.
