'''Han ShuXen''' is a painter from the [[Rose Empire]] on [[Sel]].{{tes ref|2}} His paintings are well-known and extremely valuable in the Empire.{{tes ref|41}}
He painted the masterpiece ''[[Lily of the Spring Pond]]'' for a woman he loved. On her death, her children gave the painting to the Rose Empire; it is owned by the [[arbiter]] [[Frava]].{{tes ref|2}} However, ShuXen felt that the painting should not outlive its intended recipient and did not want it used to glorify the Rose Empire.{{tes ref|76}} He hired the [[Forger]] [[Wan ShaiLu]], whom he had tutored in her youth, to destroy it and replace it with a copy.{{tes ref|76}} Shai felt that she owed a debt to her former mentor and agreed to the plan.{{tes ref|76}}
ShuXen assists Shai in making a masterful copy of ''Lily of the Spring Pond'', providing his studies for the original painting and advice on the brushwork.{{tes ref|76}} Shai also makes a second copy of passable quality that she uses as a decoy.{{tes ref|30}} Shai is able to execute the plan and burns the original painting, replacing it with the master forgery.{{tes ref|76}}
In his old age he has gone blind and can barely move.{{tes ref|76}}
