Fan Zhuo

Fan Zhuo is the adopted son of Fan Qi and adoptive brother of Fan Jin. He was taken under Fan Qi's wing because his father, one of those with the skin map on their back, had felt that something was wrong with the way the 12 Palaces were treating them. He had left his son and wife in the Lower realm while he went to check his feeling. When Fan Qi received the cry for help from Fan Zhuo's father he rushed to get the child.

To protect Fan Zhuo as the child was very weak he said that he was his son, when it was Fan Jin. He stayed week and sickly until he met Jun Wu Xie who cured, not without any troubles, thought.

He is very low-key but is also one of the minds who can keep up with Jun Wu Xie.

Ability
Ring Forgers are extremely scarce in numbers and each of the Twelve Palaces employed their own Ring Forgers. The more powerful the Ring Forger himself was, the more power added to the spirit rings he forged. The forging of spirit rings is in essence, employing a special method, to amplify a spirit form’s power. The process is called Spirit Reinforcement.

The flame of a ring forger is called Soul of Flame and only responds only to a specific genetic line, who are called Ring Forgers. This flame is placed in a container, Fan Zhuo has been placed in a bronze sphere. The flame produced no heat to humans, however towards spirits forms it will inflict unbearably high temperatures. All Ring Forgers, would never touch the Soul of Flames physically. Even when it would not cause any damage to their souls, it would nevertheless cause their own to become highly irritable and be unable to calm down, or to properly control their spiritual powers to properly carry out the forging of the spirit ring.
