- *Character Name: Wan Guofeng
*Character Role: Political Commissar of the Red Guards, commander of the paramilitary branch, member of the Politburo
*Brief summary of the character: A former Nominal of the 51st Division of the MAA, Wan Guofeng was one of many who deserted from the Arteria when order broke down in City 51. As his squad was wiped out on one fateful day following an ambush by a well-armed street gang, Wan was forced to spend some time hiding in the city’s underground, hoping to blend in with the civilian population and underclass to lay low for some time as the situation continued to deteriorate in the city. While laying low in the city during the troubles, he had met Madam Li, who gave him a newfound sense of purpose, and soon entrusted him with a position in the Politburo as a political commissar and leader of the paramilitary branch of the Red Guards, where he would soon earn his reputation as The Generalissimo of the New Communist Party of China. Now, as disorder in City 51 reaches an all-time high, Wan hopes that the Politburo will soon take advantage of the chaos and give him an opportunity to demonstrate the effectiveness of his paramilitary branch firsthand and end the group’s reliance on common street thugs to achieve their goals.
*Why do you want to play this character?: I usually play as a CP character and a “loyalist” citizen in the OSF who sometimes interacts with the underclass in the slums, so using the opportunity of this event to play a dedicated rebel/anti-citizen character sounded all too enticing to me, especially given the circumstances that City 51 finds itself in within the story of the event. Sniper came up with the concept of the Red Guards, and given my propensity for playing characters with a military background, I figured a character like this would be a good fit for his faction.
- Tell us about yourself: I’ve played on Willard since the i17 event, and have found this server to be very enjoyable, my first dedicated stay in a hl2rp community. I play mainly Combine-aligned characters on the main server (mainly Civil Protection and OSF for the time being), so I’m glad to have events like these to try playing from alternate perspectives.
Are you new to Willard Networks?: Not really, I’ve been here since the i17 event.
Are you familiar with anyone around Willard Networks?: I’ve made some friends in the community, yes.
What's your favorite thing about Half Life?: The Combine are one of the most interesting antagonists in fiction to me, since we understand so little about them, and they feel like a truly alien group that humans can’t properly comprehend. I also enjoy dystopian stories that tackle the subject of imperialism from a far more advanced invader and other such themes.
