MEN SHEN
Chinese Security God
Also known as Men-Shen, Menshen
Three Door Guardians of fearsome aspect
A very good package deal. Protect your home or business with the Three Door Gods.
Qin Shubao and Yuchi Jingde stand guard on either side of the front door, while Wei Cheng keeps watch round the back. Every home should have one. Or rather, three.
Just like modern security personnel, they have a police background. Originally high-ranking generals from the Tang Dynasty, the Men Shen are mean, moody and very well armed. Their magical weapons are highly efficient — and one glance at their stern military faces keeps all but the most stout-hearted intruders at bay.
You must not call them bouncers.
