Litchi Faye Ling

Litchi Faye-Ling is a renowned doctor living in Orient Town, located in Kagutsuchi.

Summary
She owns a clinic there and is helped by her assistant Linhua. She worked with Tager and Kokonoe in Sector Seven until the incident where an unnamed man of importance to Litchi became Arakune. She defends the local townspeople from Arakune and seeks to restore him to his former self through any means necessary, even through death. She also seems to respect Bang, even apologizing to him if she defeats him in a match, although she remains unaware of the true extent of his feelings for her. She is often subject to adoration for her noticeably large breasts.

She is well-known and trusted by the Kaka clan living beneath Kagutsuchi, often bringing them food or teaching their members. At some point she took an object from the Boundary, her panda hairpiece named Lao Jiu. It acts as an amplifier of Seithr, and seems to allow her control over her staff. She is also the host of her own Fourth Wall Mail show "Teach Me, Miss Litchi", drawn in chibi-fied form, where she teaches about the plot of BlazBlue and answers questions from various other characters, ranging from Taokaka's elders to even Ragna.

In Continuum Shift, Litchi reconsiders to return to Sector Seven to get help from Kokonoe in regards of curing Arakune. However, an encounter with Arakune left her in shock that Arakune could still speak normally and warns her to cease her attempts to cure him, as she is drawing power from the Boundary which has since corrupted her (to an unknown extent). Unlike Arakune, Litchi has yet to cross a certain thin line to be completely corrupted like him thus it's not too late for her to turn to Kokonoe and be cured.

Powers and Abilities
Litchi has the ability to mentally control her staff from a distance. Her staff is usually seen floating behind her and it will thrust forward as she punches and kick before returning to its neutral position. She can also throw it so it lands, erect and upright, far away from her and she can later make it fly back to her, twirling rapidly like a wheel so that it hurts anyone in its way. The staff seems to be able to do some small amount of shape-shifting. Her staff can split into three parts or briefly double itself to attack from two angles or even become a strange "stick man" that marches forward as it wildly flails at an opponent.

Litchi, herself, is clearly skilled in martial arts, even without her staff, and is a skilled athlete. She can easily balance on one leg on the tip of her upright staff and still generate enough power to kick downward at an enemy. She also can perform what appears to be some chi-based attacks as well. Her formidable fighting skills combined with her independently attacking staff makes her capable of attacking from many different angles at once.

Trivia

 * Litchi shares a lot of similarities with multiple Guilty Gear characters. Her Chinese heritage, tendency to wear red clothes and control over ki is similar with Jam Kuradoberi; while her profession (doctor) mirrors Faust's. Her story seems to draw parallels with Millia Rage, being a woman who taps in dangerous powers and left their organization with it to settle a score with a man.
 * Her name and normal color scheme seems to be a pun on a Chinese fruit (lychee).
 * Litchi's theme Oriental Flower is a remix of Jam Kuradoberi's theme Babel Nose.
