Well, I'm pretty clumsy, but seems like 天后林 is for sure with the way she bounces around from target to target. Sword-style, too, so attacking several at once.
Don't have to be very agile to be Lady of the Slain. They don't move much.
Akima:
If you're writing the name in Chinese, it should be 林天后. The surname always comes first. :wink:
Longsword was my favourite weapon. You have to love whirling through the mooks in true wuxia style; heads flying off left and right in fountains of blood. After my first play-through, I modded the game so that my sword looked like a proper jian throughout, instead of switching to the (IMHO) rather oversized and cartoony visual models used for the more advanced longsword weapon styles.
Valdís:
Ah, even if it's a title? Y'know, how in-game they have characters like "Sagacious Zu" and "Radiant Jen Zi". Took the name from elements of the Goddess Mazu. The Heavenly-Empress Lin. :-)
GarandMarine:
The cartoony weapons after a certain point were one of my few complaints about Jade Empire.

Titles normally come after the name in Chinese. For example Mr. Wang (王）is 王先生 (Wang Mr.), and if he were your teacher you would address him as 王老师 (Wang teacher). 孔夫子 (Kǒngfūzǐ or Confucius) means Master Kong, but is written Kong Master. The names and titles of the historical Princess Taiping and Princess Changle are written 太平公主 (Tàipíng Gōngzhǔ), and 长乐公主 (Chánglè Gōngzhǔ) respectively. The English "Princess Dianna" is written 戴安娜王妃 (Dài'ānnà Wángfēi (it's a different word for Western princess)). Even the Bodhisattva Guanyin (sometimes in English called the Goddess Of Mercy) is written 观音菩萨 (Guānyīn Púsà or Guanyin Bodhisattva).
But the Jade Empire is not China, exactly, so you're fine. :-)
