* AmazonBrigade: The Blood Wind Cult. More esoterically, the Resplendent Phoenix Society, who downplay their ActionGirl traits in favor of more [[YamatoNadeshiko particularly]] [[SilkHidingSteel feminine]] [[FemmeFatale strengths]] (but can still kick ass with the best of them).

clan. They are considered a Heterodox faction because while they raid ships, take over towns/cities on the rivers, and defy the government, [[NobleDemon they allow safe passage to ships that give them tribute, rule the places they take fairly and protectively, and their Wulin behave chivalrously.]]

* HeroAntagonist: The Liquid Metal Delegates are a fully Chivalrous faction in terms of their Virtues, adhering to the virtues of Righteousness and Loyalty[[note]though their philosophy, Legalism, straddles the line between Chivalrous and Selfish[[/note]]. However, as they serve the Empire rather than the Wulin, they are considered a Heterodox sect and are somewhat antagonistic to the world of martial arts.

* ArrogantKungFuGuy: Baneful humans are martial artists who have chosen to walk a very [[TheCynical cynical]] path that rejects the natural order as anything more than Heaven rigging the game. As a result, they reject all Virtues other than [[BloodKnight Ferocity]] and [[ToBeAMaster Force]], relying on nobody and nothing except themselves. They are ''still'' substantially better people on average than [[FallenHero Deviants]], and they're one of the only people who can master Corrupt Chi rather than [[TheDarkSideWillMakeYouForget the other way around]]; it's possible to greet them in a more friendly manner to learn, though any self-respecting Baneful human is the very definition of a SinkOrSwimMentor.

** At the same time, it is healthy for the man's partner to have a strong Yin. As the book says, "the ideal lover is a woman who he can just barely beat in battle, or who can sometimes be beaten and sometimes not." Meanwhile, it is healthy a woman seeks out as strong a male as possible, at least her equal. She stands little risk of his yang overwhelming her yin(there must be at least a 3 rank difference, which is a massive power gap, between them in order for this to occur). This paints a picture where martial artists seek out their approximate equals when they look for love.

''Legends of the Wulin'' is a {{Wuxia}} RolePlayingGame published by EosPress, and a successor to the ''WeaponsOfTheGods'' RPG. It is designed to showcase the larger-than-life heroes, the variety of kung fu techniques and the high power level of Wuxia - "Ranked Fighters" (AKA "Xia") can literally take down dozens of nameless mooks right out the gate, and character abilities deal with destiny, and the fate of all of China. Unlike ''Weapons of the Gods'' however, the powers of heaven and hell do not make their presence directly felt, leaving destiny in the hands of humans.
