This is meant to take place near the end of Su Xiao-Lins personal story in SC4, this event is one of the reasons she switched from Three-Sectional Staff to Sword & Trident in SC5.
"Hmm…you are more troublesome than I thought." said the dark skinned figure wielding a Scythe below his feet appeared a magic circle "I have no time to deal with you!" as he finished his sentence a bright light emerged from the circle blinding Xiao-Lin.
When she opened her eyes Xiao-Lin was confused as to where she was, behind her she heard a giggle. When Xiao-Lin turned around a familiar figure she hadn't seen in years was there…she was frozen with disbelief "It…can't be…" she said. With a smile the figure replied "My how you've grown…Xiao hunie."

Xiao-Lin: "So I have to sacrifice my overall lifespan to get my dead mother back…I have missed many of my childhood years without my mother, but I'll gladly do this if it'll bring her back."
These words echoed in Jiangs head a light smile shown on her face. Bathed in light she felt her soul return to the Earth. As she opened her eyes in front of her stood the daughter she was proud to have and opened her arms with a big smile.
Jiang-Ying: "Give mama a nice tight hug…to make sure I am really alive."

Author Notes
Originally meant to be a one-time character Xiao-Lin sees in a hallucination from her battle with Zasalamel before learning and mastering the purifying blow to use on Liao-Xin. Since Xiao-Lin tended to be alone in media I used her in I was wanting to make an image of her mother who would look about as young if not younger than her. I liked the creation enough that the Renewed Soul outfit for Xiao in SC4 was meant in memory of Jiang and later decided to make Jiang a permanent member of my roster.
In the old timeline when the Lizardman raid happened Jiang-Ying was among the first who died though Xiao-Lin managed to escape while Liao-Xin was ignored when the Lizardmen passed by her when she tripped when she was trying to warn the village. Her old friend Zudan eventually made contact with Xiao-Lin mentioning a forbidden revival technique that would exchange some of the wishers life to bring back a fallen loved one, while Xiao-Lin was initially reluctant she really wanted to see her mother again and went along with the technique which caused Zudan to be hunted by her clan.
In the new timeline Liao-Xin successfully delivers the message of the raid thus Jiang-Ying was prepared to fight off some of the Lizardmen with Liao. The trio was rescued by Katerina & Qing-Long who happened to spot the island.
Soulcalibur IV
- Eternal Mother
- Mother of Xiao-Lin in all her glory (while alive) her eyes are supposed to be different colors (right Green, left Blue), but other than that she came out how I was wanting her to.
This is Xiao's real mother not the fake that attacked her in her story.
Soulcalibur BD
- Eternal Mother
- She came out how I was wanting her to outside of the wrong glasses.
Soulcalibur V
For the family story order read as such
Jiang-Ying » Zhu-Que » Xiao-Lin » Qing-Long
- Costume 1 ~ Amethyst Lotus
- While Jiang-Ying was originally a one-time only character for SC4 I decided due to Xiba's wild style replacing Kilik's it wouldn't work well with Xiao-Lin so I passed the style (and weapon) to someone else. I can't make her real outfit due to the fact that it has asymmetrical gloves and socks as well as a big waist ribbon, this came out quite well in the least. For those that read the bio her age when she died was 44.
- Costume 2 ~ White Tigress
- Female counterpart to Qing-Long's 2nd costume. As Jiang-Ying has never had a Costume 2 up to this point and is the only member to not have an outfit named after the 4 Chinese celestial beasts I was decided to go for Tiger with Jiang-Ying since it was the only one that wasn't chosen.
- Costume 3 ~ Crimson Flower
- One of her earlier designs prior to her completed Costume 1, I decided to bring it back and color it Red to match Xiao's Costume 1.
Warriors Series
- Dynasty Warriors 7 Costume 1 ~ Amethyst Lotus
- She is Xiao-Lin's mother though the DW version of Xiao has no memory of this till late in her lifetime (late 40's early 50's, Xiao lives for 53 years). I thought she was perfect in the demo until the free DLC which had her Pince-Nez style glasses. She is made from the initial equipment and was the only one I deemed complete in the demo.
- Dynasty Warriors 7 Costume 2 ~ Burgundy Blaze
- I was originally going to use Nine Heavens Waistcloth for this outfit, but I switched to Aide Skirt to give her a cuter feel.
- Dynasty Warriors 8
- Mainly updated the face to resemble her youthful look from SW4.
- Samurai Warriors 4 Costume 1 ~ Lovely Blossom
- Younger looking face compared to DW7:E since I had a reference shot of Nene's face to work off of. This could be viewed as Jiang-Ying in her prime before she settled down to have her daughters.
- Samurai Warriors 4 Costume 2 ~ Amethyst Blossom (Empires only)
- Alternative look for Jiang-Ying to be fighting in her prime when she first met Zudan.
