𝐄𝐬𝐦𝐞 𝐀𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐚 𝐇𝐚𝐝𝐥𝐞𝐲 𝐅𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐭
𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 :
One third of the stepford cuckoos she was cloned in a lab, bred for power and raised to manipulate. She’s sneaky and cunning, willing to use her powers to manipulate those around her to get the results she wants. However, she has a heart of gold hidden underneath her “rough” exterior. All in all she’s impatient but a sweetheart and while she and her sisters may be able to share a mind there is a clear distinction between them, Esme being less willing to use violence as a first resort, but if you threaten anyone she cares for or back her into a corner, she’s willing to do anything. After all there’s nothing more dangerous than an animal that’s backed against the wall.
𝐛𝐢𝐨 :
Being one of five clones created in a lab meant that Esme never was destined for a normal life. She spent a large portion of her youth being controlled and manipulated into the perfect weapon, collared and kept separate from two of the five as she was forced to rip into peoples minds alongside her sisters.
At age 13 they turned against their captors. Esme, Sophie and Phoebe being the only clones that made it out alive in their escape. For years they manipulated their way into homes, faking mamories in families a day at a time only to move a few days later, it was no wonder that they were found only four years after their escape. The Hellfire club took in the three 17 year olds and utilized their abilities as much as they wished, this time fighting for her own rights or at least that's what Esme told herself.
After an undercover mission goes wrong both her sisters are taken captive and Esme devises a plan to help them escape, infiltrating the mutant underground to get them back. She wouldn't loose any more sisters.

打鐵花 (da2tie3hua1; struck iron fireworks) is a traditional folk firework that began in Henan and Shanxi, first arising in Queshan county, Henan and later circulating through the whole country. It had first appeared during the Northern Song dynasty, and was most popular during the Ming and Qing dynasties.
For Queshan struck iron fireworks, a two-layer pergola is built and covered with willow branches for performances, under which the molten iron is struck up with two willow sticks to create a rain of fire.
[eng by me + edited an ad out]
(On top of the information in the video, I have some more about its recent history under the cut.)
*Also, a note about one of the subtitles: I realized later that "going into battle without a shield" actually just meant going shirtless. I was only confused about this phrasing while translating because she didn't go shirtless, although that is for obvious reasons
Queshan struck iron fireworks had almost been lost before Yang Jianjun unearthed it again in 1988. It had almost died out in the early years of the Republic of China being established, after which there had only been three performances until 1988: 1952, 1956, 1962. Yang Jianjun had seen the 1956 performance as a 7-8 year old and later on as the director of a cultural centre, began digging up the skill and its history. In the process, he became an apprentice to Li Wanfa, who had been the last head of the Queshan Struck Iron Fireworks Society. He practised with sand and water, learning of its historical origin, its ancestral inheritors, craftsmanship and performance arts, but didn't touch the real thing until 1988. Through Yang Jianjun's efforts and investment, the first struck iron fireworks performance in more than 25 years took place in Nanshan Square (then a deserted area) in Queshan county.
Queshan struck iron fireworks are different from other struck iron fireworks in that it requires a wide area to perform, whereas others only needed a wall or could be hit straight up into the air, and it costs much more money to set up.
The names of inheritors are difficult to trace, and can only be traced back to the Qing dynasty during the Qianlong period, making Yang Jianjun a sixth-generation inheritor, and Jiang Xunqian (OP) the first woman and a seventh-generation inheritor.

random miscellaneous hunter sketches
i was possibly considering giving hunter a bit of a redesign so he fits more like a boy dressed in the 2000s like he's supposed to be, but his current outfit is almost too iconic to change, it's hard to beat LOL
