He is a first-generation mythic beast (神兽) and younger twin brother to Bixie.[2] Seeking shelter and sanctuary from humans, he reunites with his old colleague Sibuxiang, who lets him stay in his home and shop Luren Dian, in exchange for his services working for him. Appearance Tianlu, in his current default form, appears as a small mammalian creature, resembling either canine or feline characteristics. He has predominantly white fur, with light blue accents and patterns around his body, one of which is a circle pattern imprinted on his hindquarters. Along with those, he also has a fluffy blue tail and blue eyebrows. He has a single golden curved-shaped horn on the top of his head right in between his rounded ears. He has lime green eyes and distinctively red paw pads. The traditional cloud pattern in blue seems to be his visual symbol.[1] Personality In his present day small form, Tianlu is a brash, hot-headed and rebellious individual who has little respect for anyone but cares deeply about those he loves. He does not tend to hold very complicated opinions about other characters and makes his attitudes clear and visible, be them of affection or disdain. He is easy to please and befriend if kindness is shown to him. He also has a generally very childlike quality to his worldviews and manners. In his ancient times baby form, Tianlu displayed most of the above characteristics but in an even simpler and a more naïve manner. In the period of time between these two points - before he became amnesiac and after he grew out of his baby stage - only a few glimpses and hints were shown to indicate possible differences in his personality. It is worth bearing in mind that these came in the form of flashbacks during unusual events and impressions spoken of him by other characters in the universe, and thus may not be accurate representations of his usual self. Within these instances, it was seen that he might have: Had a more level-headed and rational approach to solving problems; Been more protective of his loved ones (exemplified with Bixie) and took on more responsibilities in his efforts of protection; Taken a much more aggressive stance against figures and establishments of authority - namely the Heavenly Court, and acted in accordance to his beliefs on the matter in a way that angered and/or threatened such authorities. Other Minor Traits Eating - Has a preference for precious stones and metals, but will also eat basically anything. Skills/Abilities Infinite Appetite: Tianlu’s insatiable appetite allows him to consume almost anything, from simple foods to even large objects. He also has an immense craving for valuables and treasures, such as gold, silver, jewels, and artifacts. He is even capable of eating living things larger than him whole. Infinite Stomach: Tianlu’s stomach is unbelievably large from the inside, appearing as a chasm-like pocket space dimension where it can be filled with and contain anything or anyone. Also within it is a pit where food can be dropped in to be digested. Formshifting / Size Alteration: As a Pixiu, he can shift his size and appearance, either appearing small and energy-saving, to large and ferocious, the latter which is presumably referred to as his “True Form”. He has also shown to be capable of shifting only a particular part of his body. [6] Name The name Tianlu is made of two characters: 天 (Tian) and 禄 (Lu). Like the name of his brother Bixie, this is one of the lesser known and used alternate names of the mythical animal Pixiu in Chinese mythology. Translated literally, these characters can have the following meanings: 天 - Of heaven, heavenly, sacred. 禄 - Fortune, happiness, the lucks of life. The nickname Pipi (皮皮) is not written with the same character as the "Pi" in Pixiu (貔貅). This may be a joke by Sibuxiang to make fun of Tianlu and his childish nature, as the character 皮 is used to describe a disobedient and careless child in some Chinese dialects. It is also a much more commonly known character than 貔 which evokes more casuality and cuteness.

He has two white bands of fur on his right ear, and he has big purple eyes, which he was told to be incredibly rare for rabbits.[1] He is often drawn in the Manhua with a goatee on his chin, but this is usually for covers and for a minor cool factor. He wears purple scarf around his neck, which he never lets go of. On his left ear, he wears a green earring on the inner side, and a gold earring and two black studs on the outer side. Personality Tuye at first is a rabbit with not much personality, just a normal mortal rabbit living on the moon who was evicted by his own mother. From that point on he became much more cautious and resourceful. In current times he is infatuated with Sibuxiang after a strange encounter with him and Pipi at a bar, where the three of them got drunk. Tuye decides to move near Sibuxiang to Yunnan valley. Story Hundreds of years ago, Tuye left the Moon Palace carrying elixirs as part of his mission to save mortals from the plague to which he earned his name title Tuye/Lord Rabbit. But as times passed by, people gradually forgot about him, so he spent his years in a daze wandering the mortal world, unable to find what else there is in life. While wandering, he stumbled upon a banner of a magnificent Sibuxiang and was flabbergasted by his appearance, causing his heart to pound in anticipation. There he searches for Sibuxiang and eventually located Sibuxiang's address. Upon meeting him in person for the first time, although appearing in complete contrast to his appearance from the banner, that moment is when he instantly developed his extreme crush on Sibuxiang, finding him "adorable", together with having a "cute contrast".[2][3] Abilitiles Athleticism: Combined with a rabbit's reflexes, he is fast and nimble. This was a necessary survival skill that Tuye developed at a young age on the Moon. Burrowing: He is a rabbit, this is a natural instinct that he has. He has dug an impressive burrow behind Luren Dian and decorated it very lavishly. Craftsmanship: Amplified when the topic is Sibuxiang, Tuye has a multitude of artistic skills that is impressive, but most of it is simply for interior decoration and anything Sibuxiang related. Flight: He has the ability to fly, but doesn't seem to want to most of the time, through the use of his scarf.[4] Immortality: He has attained godhood, om which he has reached the point where he can live potentially forever. Entrepreneurship: This skill has evolved over time and allowed Tuye to be quite rich. Medicine Making: He is very skilled at making medicine and possesses a wide array of potions and elixirs. This granted him worshippers during ancient times and allowed him to ascend to godhood. Moon Cake Making: Be it savory or sweet flavored, he is an expert at making moon cakes, and is the only one to still be obsessive with making and eating them till this day. Moon Rabbit Physiology: He is born on the moon and can breathe on the moon without oxygen, he is also unaffected by the moon's gravity unlike other creatures. Paraphernalia Cellphone: On him at all times, hidden in his chest tuft, it evolves from a table rotary phone, to a typical smart phone. The Pibo of Chang'e: The shawl of Chang'e; the faerie of the moon, which is perpetually on Tuye at all times, it allows flight and regulates the temperature on its user, cooling during summer and warming during winter.[4] Name Tuye (兔爷) directly translates to “Rabbit Master” however this likely stems from two major inspirations to his character. One possibility is that it’s a shortening of Tu’erye (兔儿爷)—the Chang’e’s (嫦娥) jade rabbit in Chinese folklore—which explains his backstory of him coming from the moon. Another possibility is his name being a portmanteau of Tu’ershen (兔儿神)—the god of rabbits and male homosexual relationships in Chinese folklore—and Daye (大爷)—the nickname of said god given used by his patrons. Which would explain his infatuation with Sibuxiang and his supposed collection of censored paraphernalia of him. Trivia Xiao Yu is his ex. He is the only Moon Rabbit that likes Moon Cakes.[5] He appears in human from in FRZ (chapter 438). In Chapter 32, as a bit with Diting[6], and in Chapter 233, Tuye admits that he wears contact lenses; without them his eyes appear small and dot-like. This tidbit has possibly been retconned, as it has not been brought up since. As seen in chapter 105, he used to own a sports car and hired a rabbit chauffeur, but because of the hereditary trait and habit of rabbits thumping their feet, he decided to NOT drive and instead uses the metro card. Tuye seems to suffer sleep walking early on in the series, in Chapter 44 he needed to snuggle up with his medicine pestle for a good sleep, but he accidentally leaves it in Beijing and thus scouting around Yunnan in search of it. Somehow ends up in the Underworld and grabbing Diting's horn. This was fixed off-screen.
