Luo Hao is a Campione in the Campione series and the second oldest among them. Raised in a Chinese martial arts oriented family, she became a master with extraordinary talent and abilities, which make her know numerous titles in the world.
Personality[]
As described by the Black Prince Alec: "Possessing the full set of the five Confucian virtues of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, knowledge, and integrity, Luo Hao was a great figure who carried herself with royal splendor. However, she believed her valor to be the greatest in the world, and compared to the lives of five billion humans, she placed greater value on herself than anyone else on the Earth. Simply put, she has delusions on the level of middle school students.”
Luo Hao appears to be haughty, as she considers regular humans beneath her. She views Godou and Japan as a district rather than a separate country. Not to mention heading into another king's country without permission, (although the king in question is Godou), She is very strict with her disciples as she made one of hers experience near-death experiences resulting in his misogyny. Despite that, she can give credit and praise to certain individuals for their talent or abilities as she praises both Godou and later Ren for their effort.
In a shock to Godou, it appears she has a muscle fetish as shown when she marveled at how Godou destroyed a wall. Living in seclusion meant she lacked common sense in male-female decency.
Luo Hao is very observant of formality and propriety, as well as the various rules of etiquette. She could also be said to be quite hypocritical, since she demands respect from others, but barged into another King's territory and unleashed a Heretic God while looking down on said king (Godou).
Luo Hao firmly believes the decline of civilization began with the invention of the steam locomotive.
History[]
Little is known of Luo Hao's history prior to the series. However, it was mentioned that she was the child of a family of martial artists, and eventually battled and slew a Heretic God. She eventually fought the Monkey King Sun Wukong, battling him over a hundred years before the start of the series, and since then appears to have held a grudge against him, waiting for the moment when she could fight him again. At some point, Luo Hao became the leader of a martial arts cult in China. She later became the teacher of Lu Yinghua ten years before the start of the series.
There is some suggestion that Luo Hao had been imprisoned at some time in the past, but she fought her way out, completely destroying the prison in the process.
Appearance[]
Luo Hao is described by Godou as a transcendent Chinese beauty and the most beautiful woman he'd ever met. She has pale skin, black hair, and a slender body with a full bosom and bottom, appearing to be in her late teens. She prefers to wear traditional Chinese clothes from the Han dynasty.

Luo Hao's authorities[]
Luo Hao's authority is shaped by her background experiences in martial arts and priestly background. To sum it up, her power follows a theme of "Enlighted Brawler". However, some of her authorities follow her more philosophical and priestly side of her personality and manifiest themsevels to better suit her subconscious desires, thus result in a more ritualistic divine powers rather than a combat applicable one.
Dragon Voice or Dragon's Roar and Tiger's Howl -The Authority she obtained from Gayatri, the Hindu Goddess of knowledge and education, who is often identified as Saraswati and is capable of raising fierce winds equivalent to hurricanes/typhoons and tornadoes that are capable of wiping everything off the surrounding area. Godou remarked that these winds were the #1 source of trouble for him in his fight against her, pinning him down and forcing him to stay on the defensive. It appears to involve channeling power through her voice to create the winds, typically in the form of singing or with regular words, and she has shown fine enough control that she can use it as an omnidirectional attack or focus it on one target, using it to either crush their bodies or push them to a far off location where she can make them land gently.
This power can also rob others of their voices, allowing only herself and the wind to speak.
Incantations:
- Songs
- "Last year we fought where the Sang-kan flows / This year it was Onion River Road. We’ve washed our swords in the Eastern Sea / Grazed our horses on Tian Shan's snowy side. A thousand miles are not enough for this war / Our armies grow old in their armor."
- "Husbandmen of slaughter, the Huns / Have sown the yellow desert with our bones. Long ago the Qin built the Great Wall / Now it’s the Han who light the signal beacon. All night long the flames flicker / Year in year out, the war lingers."
- "Bright swords flash, brave men fall and die / Riderless horses whinny at the sky. Kites and crows pluck out the guts / Hang them high on the withered trees."
- "Soldiers' blood on the dry grass stained / While generals map the next campaign. Wise men know a war having won / Is no better than losing one."
- "As if looking up at snowy Mount Taibai / Delighted to find Mount Wugong's sky."
- "Government officials all in silent shadows / The seven generals lie awake."
- "Welfare of the country this morn / Years of middle revival."
- "When Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva was practicing the profound prajna paramita, he illuminated the five skandhas and saw that they are all empty, and he crossed beyond all suffering and difficulty. Shariputra, form does not differ from emptiness; emptiness does not differ from form. Form itself is emptiness; emptiness itself is form!"
- "So, too, are feeling, cognition, formation, and consciousness. Shariputra, all dharmas are empty of characteristics. They are not produced. Not destroyed, not defiled, not pure, and they neither increase nor diminish!"
- "Quoted from the chapter of Carefree Roaming, the perfect man has no thought of self; the god-like man, none of merit; the sagely-minded man, none of fame!"
The Power or Divine Might of Vajrapani -This Authority was derived from the Indian god Vajrapani, the Benevolent King Buddha Guardians. When using this Authority, her fists can turn into diamond and she obtains incredible physical strength that she shows enough control over that even when throwing someone a great distance, she can make them land softly enough to prevent serious injury. She can also summon either one or two large guardian statues or a gigantic palm, which are Avatars of Vajrapani, capable of immense strength created for Luo Hao to use as her puppets. The two statues are golden in color and appear to be two almost completely nude muscular men, one open-mouthed and the other close-mouthed, reminiscent of the guardian statues from Buddhist religion called Om, who always came as a pair and were united as one deity. The palm she manifests has been shown to be as large as Zhu Ganglie in his giant form, which she used to grab and launch him into the atmosphere. It is unknown if she can manifest the palm and giants at the same time.
Incantations:
- Buddha

Instructions:
- "Strength beyond numbers, strength beyond skill! A thousand tonnes in one leg, victory from a single kick!"
- "The swimming dragon rushes to the heavens, attack from close quarters, close in rapidly from the eight directions, spinning double kick!"
- Palm Avatars:
- "Glowing sun, brilliance of scorching lightning! Spirit of the heavens, spirit of the earth, Grand Supreme Elderly Lord, make haste as commanded!"
- "Strength exerted from bones, force applied from tendons! Yes, a palm the precedes all creation!"
Terrible Metropolis or Empty Dream of Golden Millet -An Authority which grants any city she resides in great agricultural and economic prosperity, which she likely received from the Roman God of agriculture Saturnus, although a certain population level has to be reached before it can be used. Blessed by various degrees of good fortune, the inhabitants will gradually rise in class and quality, producing stability in the government, and public order will be stabilized. However, the decline will quickly set in after she leaves.
Hopeless Forest or Fragrant Hundred Grass, Thousand Flower Profuse Blooming -An Authority to create plant life in the surroundings, with the area varying from the size of a small meadow of flowers to turning all of Japan into a jungle, with time and magical power requirements.

When they hear her voice, their physical body will receive several enhancements such as a body with bronze like durability and increase in martial arts skills. In return to the blessings, the receiver must obey Luo Hao's will.
Heavens Fall - An authority usurped from Persian dragon, Gōčihr. Luo Hao can use this authority to cause a solar eclipse or lunar eclips at will. Normally, it will remain for half a day.
