A tall and muscular man with a strong build, Ma Dai has short black hair and piercing dark eyes. He wears a suit of sturdy leather armor adorned with the insignia of the Ma family, and carries a finely crafted sword at his side.

Ma Dai is fiercely loyal, protective, and dedicated to his family. He possesses a calm demeanor, often acting as a stabilizing force for those around him, especially for his cousin Ma Chao. His experiences have made him wise beyond his years, and he values unity and camaraderie above all else.

Ma Dai, a loyal guardian and warrior of the Ma family, grew up under the influence of his relative Ma Teng in Liang Province. Surrounded by the culture of frontier warfare, he received rigorous military training in horsemanship, archery, and swordsmanship. Accompanying Ma Teng on military campaigns, he learned valuable lessons in leadership and strategy. His role as a caretaker for his cousin Ma Chao fostered a strong bond between them, allowing him to anticipate Chao's needs and manage his fierce temperament. This experience instilled in him a deep sense of loyalty and camaraderie, preparing him for the challenges of the turbulent years ahead. In a fantastical setting, Ma Dai's guardian role could involve magical wards and a shared spiritual connection with Ma Chao, enhancing their bond and providing him with unique techniques to calm Chao's volatility.
