For Honor Y8S4: The Serpent Sword
Forged from a meteorite, the Starfall Sword is said to reemerge throughout Wu Lin history during turbulent eras as a symbol of peace and unity. Such is the legend told by General Zhi, a shrewd and ambitious Zhanhu, to the Horkos leader Astrea.
He has invited her to a harbor of his domain to gift her the Sword, thus sealing their alliance -- to him, leadership over the Wu Lin, and to her, complete dominance over Heathmoor.
Now, with the Starfall Sword in her grasp, Astrea feels the promise of near-certain victory. For Heathmoor, a downfall is coming...

Frost Wind Offering
Astrea has been summoned by the Zhanhu General Zhi to a special ceremony. With the gift of the legendary Starfall Sword, the General intends to pledge himself to the Horkos in the name of power.

Testing Grounds
From December 5th to the 12th, a new Testing Grounds will be held! Throughout the years, we have been building feats that are more unique to the character and add more to the moveset of their assigned characters. These feats help to add more to the character's personality and the fantasy of playing with the character. We wanted to revisit some of our older feats and give these feats a similar treatment. We continue with our beloved Peacekeeper for these exciting changes.
General Zhi: Zhanhu Hero Skin
War has torn apart the Wu Lin empire for generations. And although most believe the strife will never come to an end, the Zhanhu General Zhi is determined to achieve the impossible. Even if that means being the most ruthless strategist the Wu Lin have ever seen. With the Starfall Sword, a legendary weapon forged from a meteorite that holds great reverence to his people, Zhi intends to forge an alliance with the Horkos. But that is only one part of a much larger plan. With Astrea coming to him, Zhi intends to finally restore honor to his Faction.
