Weng-Chiang
Weng-Chiang, (TV: The Talons of Weng-Chiang) also rendered as Weng Chiang, (GAME: The Iytean Menace [+]Loading...["The Iytean Menace (game)"]) was the ancient Chinese god of abundance, having the power to make things grow. He was apparently an evil being, said to have breathed poisonous fumes from his mouth and kill men with light from his eyes. (TV: The Talons of Weng-Chiang) He was an ethnic corruption of Sung-Chiang, the god of thieves and criminals. (PROSE: The Shadow of Weng-Chiang)
The Tong of the Black Scorpion was a fanatical cult convinced that he would return one day and rule the world.
51st century time traveller Magnus Greel was believed to be Weng-Chiang by Li H'sen Chang when he found him, and thus Greel gained control over the cult. (TV: The Talons of Weng-Chiang) Descendants of the Tong soldiers who believed Greel to be Weng-Chiang were told stories of the god's anger. (PROSE: The Shadow of Weng-Chiang)
