"Hao is the youngest son of the Ni Family. The young red panda was 11-years-old
when his family was forced to move to the lawless pirate haven of Krupmark Island,
and what he's seen and experienced has marked him. He's just nineteen
in this picture and has killed perhaps two dozen people in the past eight years.
He looks as I've always visualized him - a surly teenaged thug."
"The plane in the background is his cherished Nin Hai biplane. The Nin Hai was built by the
China Naval Establishment in 1933, an early effort by the Nationalist government
to start an aircraft industry." -- Walt Reimer, writer of "Luck of the Dragon"
