Biography

Lung Tien Chu was the son of Lung Tien Xian. His daughter was Lung Tien Lien, an albino Celestial born during the reign of the Qianlong Emperor, who was believed to be unlucky, due to her being born in "mourning colours".

Aside from a brief mention by Qian that he is her sibling or half-sibling, Chu has not explicitly appeared in the Temeraire series to date. He may be the unnamed male Celestial who appears with the Qianlong Emperor in Throne of Jade, as in Crucible of Gold, Temeraire reflects that his own uncle is the Emperor's companion.

Relation to other Celestials

Because little is known about the family tree of the Celestials, the following chart is conjectural. A detailed explanation on how this conclusion was reached exists on the page for "Grandfather".
