 # Strategist Prop Audit
 
 This audit keeps Zhuge Liang's large white feather fan as a unique signature prop.
+It also keeps character-specific scholar traits intact: Ma Liang should read as the white-eyebrow civil official, not as another white-robed feather-fan strategist.
 
 ## Prop Rule
 
 - `unit-zhuge-liang` is the only unit allowed to use a large white feather fan silhouette.
+- `unit-zhuge-liang` may keep the white-robed sage read; other strategists should not rely on white robes plus fan shapes for identity.
+- `unit-ma-liang` may use bright white only for his famous eyebrows and small paper highlights. His robe silhouette should stay green/olive/tan and document-focused.
 - Other strategist, civil-official, and shaman units should use bamboo slips, scrolls, maps, command tablets, brush cases, small folding fans, talismans, ritual staffs, or faction-specific tools.
 - A fan is acceptable only when it does not read as Zhuge Liang's large white feather fan at 50px battle scale.

 # Strategist Prop Fix Batch 1
 
 Goal: keep Zhuge Liang's large white feather fan unique, while preserving strategist readability for representative units.
+Follow-up note: character-specific traits matter more than removing every white accent. Ma Liang now keeps a white-eyebrow identity while avoiding Zhuge Liang's white robe and feather-fan language.
