The Scarlet Queen, also known as the Scarlet Phoenix, is one of the Ministers of Creation, the ruler of the Yang World (though the history of the Hsien names the phoenixes as the masters of Yin[#endnote_8million20]). Her mate is the Ebon Dragon. Together they created the Wan Xian — the Ten Thousand Heroes — to protect the world in the name of the August Personage of Jade, and birthed numerous shen.
