1# stage reflection

I'm working with Cole and Sam daysh.
We have changed our first design into a square koru.
We have divided our design into parts which each of us will work on.
I'm working on the smallest part of the design.

Dr fu manchu

Dr. Fu Manchu

Real Name: Fu Manchu

Occupation: Leader of the Si-Fan cult

Affiliations: The Si-Fan, Fah Lo Suee

Enemies: Sir Denis Nayland Smith, Dr.Petrie, Scotland Yard

Known Relatives: Fah Lo Suee (daughter)

Aliases: The Devil Doctor, the Celestial One

Base of Operations: China; when based in Britain, he generally uses the Limehouse district of London

First Appearance: "The Zayat Kiss" (The Story-Teller, October 1912)

Powers/Abilities: Fu Manchu is a master of both ancient mystical abilities and modern scientific advances. Utilizing a magic drug called the Elixir Vitae, Fu Manchu has retained youth and strength despite his advanced age. He can hypnotize (almost) anyone he looks in the eyes.

Marvel Comics' depiction of Fu ManchuHistory: Sax Rohmer's Devil Doctor. "Imagine a person, tall, lean and feline, high-shouldered, with a brow like Shakespeare and a face like Satan, a close-shaven skull, and long, magnetic eyes of the true cat-green. Invest him with all the cruel cunning of an entire Eastern race, accumulated in one giant intellect, with all the resources of science past and present, with all the resources, if you will, of a wealthy government--which, however, already has denied all knowledge of his existence. Imagine that awful being, and you have a mental picture of Dr. Fu-Manchu, the yellow peril incarnate in one man."

-- Nayland Smith to Dr. Petrie, The Insidious Dr. Fu Manchu

Fu Manchu is an oriental mastermind who wishes to destroy the Western world and remake it in the glorious image of the east, with him as the absolute ruler. As well as having an incredible intellect to help him achieve this goal, he also has the fanatical loyalty of the Si-Fan, a Chinese cult, his deadly daughter Fah Lo Suee, and an indomitable will; arrayed against him is Sir Denis Nayland-Smith, a British agent. Time and again over several decades they clash, with Smith's ingenuity always inevitably thwarting the Devil Doctor's plans at the last possible moment

2: Every point moves in the same distance in the same direction.
3: lengths and angles stay the same.
