-------------------

** [[Demoted to Extra]] - Historically, it happened. It was just omitted 'till 7.

* [[Bishonen]]

* [[Catch Phrase]] - He likes to remind you that you are an ''imbecile''!

* [[Dishing Out Dirt]] - His Tome Special in DW6 is to drop boulders.

** [[Razor Floss]] - His weapon in DW6, which has the strings just emerge from his fingers. He does however use them in his Musou attacks in 7.

* [[Foe Yay]] - With Zhuge Liang.

* [[Ho Yay]] - With Cao Pi

* [[Laughing Mad]] - Whilst well-known for his [[Evil Laugh]] from pretty much DW3 onwards, it was only in DW6 that he got hit with this. Seems to be back on his medication as of DW7.

* [[Lex Lang]] - DW4

* [[The Patriarch]]

* [[The Rival]] - To Zhuge Liang

* [[Sanity Slippage]] - Related to [[Laughing Mad]], above - he started off in DW6 as very reluctant to take any part in the chaos sweeping the land until being eventually press-ganged by Cao Cao into service, but soon got a taste for ambition from Cao Cao, as well as a [[The Rival|rival]] in Zhuge Liang. [[It Got Worse|It pretty much went downhill from there.]] {{spoiler|Although he never went completely mad; his ending has him quite reasonable, although just the previous scene he took rather too much pleasure in having beaten and killed Cao Cao.}}

* [[The Strategist]] - Probibly Wei's best no less.

* [[Treacherous Advisor]]

* [[The Unfettered]] - Takes the pragmatist approach of the Cao clan [[Up to Eleven]].

* [[What Do You Mean Its Not Symbolic]]: His weapon in DW6.

Height: 5'11" (180cm)

 

---------

** {{spoiler|He thanks him for coming to see him when he's on his death bed.}}

* [[Bishonen]]

* [[Berserk Button]] - Never, EVER steal his meat buns. Also counts as [[Disproportionate Retribution]].

* [[Cool Mask]]

* [[Eye Scream]] - The reason why he's wearing that mask around his left eye is due to it being struck by a sword.

** This is his third role in KOEI's historical Musou titles (previously being [[Samurai Warriors|Chousokabe Motochika]] and [[Warriors Orochi|Orochi]]).

* [[Ironic Echo]] - In Jin's story:

'''Sima Shi''': You're just leaving it all to me? }}

** Later on when Shi dies:

'''Sima Shi''': *chuckles* [[Lampshade Hanging|I heard that somewhere before]]. }}

** {{spoiler|He gets sick and dies just like his dad, too...}}

* [[Royal Rapier]]

* [[The Strategist]]

* [[The Unfettered]]

* [[Trademark Favorite Food]] - Take a guess...

 

 

 

==== "The Extravagant Second Son" ====

[[File:simazhao_4315.jpg|frame]]

 

 

 

Born: 211<br />Died: 265<br />Japanese spelling: Shibashou

Height: 6'3" (190cm)

 

---------------

 

* [[Bishonen]]

* [[Brilliant but Lazy]] / [[Idiot Hero]] - Jin's story mode in DW7 paints him as both, simultaneously at that.

* [[Catch Phrase]] - Zhao says "Mendokuse", which means "What a pain!" in English when he's tasked.

* [[Characterization Marches On]] - Prior to becoming a playable character, Sima Zhao was depicted as "Sima Yi Lite", complete with stealing his father's favorite insult.

* [[Henpecked Husband|Henpecked Boyfriend]] - Some Japanese fanart even shows [[Tsundere|Wang Yuanji]] leading him around on a leash.

* [[Heroic Build]] - Gets to show off that sexy chest.

** Also his English VA (Kaiji Tang) may be unknown, but those who played [[Fist of the North Star|Fist Of The North Star: Ken's Rage]] may recognize him as [[Badass|Kenshiro]] himself. Whoa, talk about a difference in personality he played.

* [[Historical Hero Upgrade]] - More noble in this game than he was in real life.

** Lampshaded after he kills Cao Mao as he says that history would record him as a killer.

* [[Idiot Hair]] - Minor case, not very noticeable outside cutscenes in DW7.

* [[The Messiah]] - Shows shades of this.

** He even borders on being a [[Martial Pacifist]] near the end!

* [[Heroes Prefer Swords|Rulers Prefer Swords]]

 

 

==== "The Beauty with the Piercing Eyes" ====

[[File:wangyuanji_1188.jpg|frame]]

 

 

 

Born: 217<br />Died: 268<br />Japanese spelling: Ougenki

Height: 5'3" (160cm)

 

-----------------

 

* [[Battle Couple]] - With Sima Zhao

* [[Cleavage Window]] - In her default DW7 outfit.

* [[Elegant Gothic Lolita]] - Her outfit evokes this, although semi-subverted since she isn't a loli.

** [[Hair of Gold]]

* [[Lady of War]]

* [[Mukokuseki]]: She provides the series' most blatant example, sporting entirely incongruent amber eyes and ash blonde hair.

* [[Knife Nut|Knife]] [[Paper Fan of Doom|Fan Of Doom]] - She wields throwing daggers, folded into a unique fan.

* [[The Smurfette Principle]] - She's the only female in a kingdom with one big [[Cast Full of Pretty Boys]]. Poor her.

* [[Tsundere]] - Type B. She is usually rather curt towards Zhao, but gets embarrassed when he teases or compliments her. On other people, however, she's pretty nice. [[Word of God|The developer]] did say she is based on the [[Tsundere]] archetype. And... her quote on being chosen on [[Ensemble Darkhorse|the most popular character ever]] says it all.

* [[Yamato Nadeshiko]] - Most of the time... she IS a [[Tsundere]] after all.

* [[Zettai Ryouiki]] - Nearly Grade S, if only she missed the [[Girlish Pigtails]].
