Male lead. Tall military officer with a buzz cut, high cheekbones, and a faint old scar running from temple to ear. Skin pale with bronze hue from years under harsh sun and blowing sand. Suffers from severe headaches lasting three days that painkillers cannot relieve. His aide Xiao Zhao feared getting close after Lu once backhanded someone hard enough to cause a nosebleed. The scent of spirit spring water and braised beef from Su Qing's compartment significantly eased his pain. Described as stern, intense, almost menacing in appearance.
