Zhou Tai

Zhou Tai is a character who first appears in Dynasty Warriors 4 and continues to be present in the following games. He is a former pirate who joined Wu with his comrade, Jiang Qin. He fights alongside Sun Ce and also serves Sun Quan. He saved Sun Quan many times on the battlefield, eventually becoming his right-hand protector. In the Dynasty Warriors series, he is 25 years old.

Dynasty Warriors
After Sun Ce's death, Zhou Tai acts as one of Sun Quan's powerful warriors on the field. Thus, he is usually positioned near his lord in many battles, such as Yi Ling, Bai Di Castle and He Fei Castle.

Personality
Zhou Tai is the classic calm and seemingly mute warrior who is merciless to his foes. He only talks when necessary and roughly mumbles one liners (his lines are surrounded with ellipses in the Japanese script). His hard-to-approach and taciturn demeanor belie a sincerely kind and loyal man of Wu. He cares greatly for Sun Quan's safety and won't hesitate to sacrifice himself for his lord's well being.
