Biography

Lung Tien Zhi is one of seven Celestial dragons descended from Lung Tien Xian ("Grandfather"). His exact relation to the other Celestials is unknown, but from what is currently known about the Celestial family tree, he could either be the father of both Lung Tien Qian and Lung Tien Chu, or the companion of the Jiaqing Emperor.

Aside from being briefly mentioned by Qian, Chu has not explicitly appeared in the Temeraire series to date.

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 Lung Tien Xian.
