01.) Full name? - Lu Dongbin, born Lu Yan, so he asks friends to call him "Yan".
02.) Best friend? - Fellow Immortal Iron-Crutch Li. The older Immortal's grumpy, crotchety persona is a good balance to Yan's usually quieter, more scholarly ways.
03.) Sexuality? - Heterosexual. Yan doesn't dislike other orientations, but they don't fit the Taoist concept of sexual balance, which requires both sexes.
04.) Favorite color? - White. He likes how it combines the other colors of light. Also, it is connected to his favorite Taoist element, metal.
05.) Relationship status? - Single. Yan has never been one for long-term relationships, preferring to experience a wide variety of female companions.
06.) Ideal mate? - A woman who can live with-- or better yet, appreciate-- the different sides to his personality, from his bookish teacher part to his drinking party guy part to the part that fights evil spirits.
07.) Turn-ons? - Women who are smart as well as fun are his favorite companions.
08.) Last sexual experience? - Teaching a class on Taoist sexual practices, demonstrating male control and pleasuring the female.
09.) Favorite food? - Yellow millet (a grain) and stir-fried vegetables.
10.) Crushes? - None. If he likes someone, he tends to just approach them without hesitating.
11.) Favorite music? - Anything soothing and relaxing, especially string instruments.
12.) Biggest fear? - That people will stop listening to the things he has to teach them.
13.) Biggest fantasy? - That all people in the world would embrace the Tao.
14.) Quirks in bed? - Controlling his body to allow orgasm without ejaculating. Yan has discovered most of his partners really learn to love this "quirk".
15.) Bad habits? - Getting drunk and partying. Flirting too much. An occasionally very bad temper.
16.) Biggest regret? - None. Yan feels regrets are not helpful.
17.) Best kept secrets? - That sometimes he wonders if the "normal life" his dream warned him against would really have turned out as bad as the dream itself.
18.) Last thought? - "I wonder where I can get a good drink in this town?"
19.) Worst sexual experience? - When he was first learning to control himself.
20.) Biggest insecurity? - That he'll never feel satisfied he's done enough, no matter how much he manages to do.
