Description of Character's Lives: After their parents were killed in war Zhao Heng, and Zhou Wei entered the service of Gongsun Zan, where they were trained in warfare. During battle they were practically unstoppable alongside one another, but were also formidable warriors alone. They were sent by Gongsun Zan to help put down the Yellow Turban Rebellion, during which they worked together to defeat Zhang Man Cheng and Zhang Jiao.
After Dong Zhuo seized power in Luo Yang a coalition of provincial governors was established to bring him down. Zhao Heng and Zhou Wei went as part of the coalition. Before the battle began they effectively prevented a fight from breaking out between Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao, and they also met Liu Bei and his sworn brothers Guan Yu and Zhang Fei . Liu bei said that "It's lucky that he had you there by his side. I fear my fellow student has a temper". They conversed with Liu Bei a little more before being called away by Gongsun Zan. They realized that Liu Bei was different than anyone else there, to them he was there because he genuinely cared about the Han and was not there to stroke his own ego. During the battle they encountered the fearsome warrior Lu Bu, but were able to hold their own against him until the Three Brothers arrived to help them.
After the battle Zhao Heng and Zhou wei decided to leave Gongsun Zan and follow Liu Bei. The two friends not only aided him in his escape from Chang Ban, but also helped many refugees escape by destroying the Chang Ban Bridge While a massive Wei force was proceeding over it. They also helped Liu Bei secure Cheng Du. After Cheng Du was captured the two friends shore an oath of brotherhood. To show each other how loyal they were to their oath Zhou Wei crafted small claws that Zhao Heng could easily add to and remove from his armor, and Zhao Hong smithed Zhou Wei a helmet with small horns on the top(thus earning the each their nicknames).
When the "Serpent King" first appeared Zhao Heng and Zhou Wei were forced to join his side, but soon defected to the resistance army after Sun Ce defeated them in battle. The two sworn brothers were present when the "Serpent King" met his end at the hand of the massive resistance army, and rejoiced when their Lord was finally released.
A/N: I think I described the characters and their lives up to this point pretty well. It's going to be a few days before I update so that I have time to brainstorm the next chapter.
