Yang Duanhe is the enigmatic leader of the mountain tribe confederation, serving as the primary voice for the unified clans.
She's known for staying calm under pressure. While the tribal elders pushed her to execute the Qin intruders, Duanhe actually heard them out and made her own call—a level of fairness that earned her serious respect. The other mountain people follow her without question, even someone as physically imposing as Tajifu. Despite her gender in a male-dominated setting, her authority goes completely unchallenged.
Duanhe is also legitimately dangerous in a fight. Episode 11 showcases her sword skills when soldiers underestimate her purely because she's a woman—she cuts through them without breaking a sweat. Fans often note that her combat ability rivals or exceeds that of the great general Ouki, making her arguably the strongest fighter among the mountain people shown so far. Baijo might edge her out during his most intense rages, but otherwise she's in a tier of her own.
