First emperor of Shu Han. Rose to power from a humble shoemaker to the ruler of the Yi Province. Said to be the descendant of a Han prince and the last of the Liu imperial line.
On his deathbed, Liu Bei left these words of wisdom to his son: "Do not commit a wrong just because it seems small; do not neglect a good deed just because it seems minor."
