Yang, Wen-li
ヤン・ウェンリー
The son of a merchant and a pacifist at heart, Yang never wanted to be a soldier; his dream was to become a historian, but he lacked the money for tuition and joined the army to secure a scholarship. He barely passed the officer's academy due to his lack of interest, though he made several friends there, including Dusty Attenborough and Jean Robert Lap. He also met music student Jessica Edwards, and both he and Lap developed a crush on her. Jessica eventually chose Lap, Yang accepted her decision, and they remained friends.
Shortly after graduation, Yang became involved in a battle near the friendly planet El Facil. Due to his superiors' incompetence and cowardice, the planet was abandoned while a hostile imperial fleet approached. Yang was one of the few officers who stayed behind to help the population, and thanks to his efforts, the planet was evacuated in time. Because of this achievement, he became famous as "the hero of El Facil" and "miracle Yang," forever earning the envy of his peers and the scorn of his superiors.
It was at El Facil that Yang first became interested in tactics. However, ever since that incident, and although he continued to rise through the ranks, his novel tactical suggestions were arbitrarily rejected by hostile superiors. Though disappointed and increasingly cynical about the state of affairs in the Alliance, Yang never stopped trying to do at least the absolute minimum to justify his salary and the pension he looked forward to.
Miracle Yang, also called "the magician," is a genius tactician as well as a competent strategist. Unlike his often proud adversaries, Yang is more than willing to resort to trickery, and his only flaw as a commander lies in his inability to go against his superiors' orders. Yang holds democracy in extremely high esteem and has a well-defined political philosophy, providing much insight to anyone willing to listen to him. In his personal life, he appears to be quite slothful; he is notoriously incompetent with house chores and in all things romantic. After serving on the Patorokolos at the start of the series, Yang eventually gets the battleship Hyperion when he is given command of the 13th Fleet, and this becomes his flagship during the coming conflicts.
