Lu Lingqi

Lu Lingqi (onyomi: Ryō Reiki) is a fictional name for Lu Bu's historically unnamed daughter. Not much is known about her, but her father attempted to use her twice for a political marriage with Yuan Shu's son. Her carriage was considered but refused both times due to the warlord's loose trust in her father's integrity. Romance of the Three Kingdoms describes that it was additionally fueled by his loathing for Lu Bu's arrogance.

Before her playable Dynasty Warriors appearance, Lu Bu's daughter is mentioned to be leaving in a carriage at Xia Pi during the fourth installment. It is never specified if she is Lu Lingqi or not.

Dynasty Warriors
Lu Lingqi mainly appears in Lu Bu's historical route and participates in many of his campaigns, starting with the Battle of Xiapi. When Liu Bei and Cao Cao overrun her father's forces at Xia Pi, she regretfully follows his last wish to escape for her survival. In Guan Yinping's what-if scenario, Lu Lingqi steals Red Hare from Liu Bei's forces, claiming that the horse is her father's legacy. Guan Yinping and her party drive her back.

Dynasty Tactics
She is a general under her father in Dynasty Tactics 2. Wanting to live up to her father's name and respecting her late mother's wishes, she's often eager to prove herself on the battlefield. She hopes to always stay beside Lu Bu and keep an eye on him. Her father however, cares very dearly for her, and would prefer it if she stayed out of warfare for her own safety.

Romance of the Three Kingdoms
Her Dynasty Tactics version appears once more in Romance of the Three Kingdoms XI. In this game, she is basically a maiden in the court who can be married off on whim to benefit her lord. Depending on the conditions the player has set in the game, she can also double as a war general. She's also a bonus character in Romance of the Three Kingdoms IX if there is a Dynasty Tactics 2 save file on the memory card. If the fictional option is used during later installments, she will often appear in her father's army as a war general.

Development
Since Lu Lingqi is one of many people who has nothing personally written in depth about her, Miyauchi remarks that it was difficult to devise her scenarios. He stressed that her relationship with Diaochan was one of the hardest hurdles for them to tackle.

Personality
Dynasty Warriors Lu Lingqi is a courageous woman who shares her father's love for battle. However, she fears being left alone due to a past traumatic experience.
