Background / History

Xiong Da came from the Sabosli Plane. In his youth, he was a bandit; initially too weak to avoid being hunted and surrounded, he later became strong enough that robbery no longer offered him any challenge. Learning from his teacher that the higher planes contained many bandits, he secretly traveled to the Darkness Divine Plane to resume the profession. 81 82

He met Olivier upon their arrival in the Darkness Divine Plane. Though his chubby, brown-haired appearance made him seem honest and simple, he immediately recognized Olivier as an extraordinary Midgod and sought an alliance. They became close through telepathic conversations about their home planes and shared ambition to establish themselves as bandits. 81 82

After briefly joining the Moore Tribe, Xiong Da and Olivier left in search of Black Rock Mountain. They infiltrated its bandit force under the pretense of admiring its leader, Adibis, while intending to seize leadership themselves. 85 89 90
