Who is Li Quan?

Krotus originally took his name from a popular pastry sold commercially in Southern Ruthenia during the mid-21st century. The pastry itself was composed of a combination of gluten, sugar and vodka, which explains its wide-spread consumption.
Krotus himself was an odd man, often given to fits of philately without warning. In the aftermath of WWIII the Internet was in shambles and most countries reverted from e-mails to old-fashioned paper correspondence. Krotus seized the moment, raising an army of stamp collectors, and swept across Southern Europe. His forces captured post offices throughout the land, throwing general chatting and long-distance romances into chaos. For the better part of two years, Krotus reigned with an iron fist and a perpetually dry tongue until émigrés from India re-established the Internet and overthrew his tyranny.
I hope that answers your question.
I always thought Krotus was a brother of Karkus, the star of the popular superhero webcomic hosted on hourlytelepress.com.
Oh, you mean that Krotus!

Krotus was actually a heavy metal band from Switzerland who..
oops, that's Krokus.

Next time you visit this time period, bring some back to share with the rest of us. I really miss Pepsi Blue...
The Last Unicorn rpg book that covers the Andorians says that Krotus was an Andorian warlord that conquered much of his homeworld in their early history before their people were unified.
I know we're not s'posed to negotiate sales in these forums but I'm willing to rent this guy a sense of humor for real cheap.
(Uh, why does every response need to be a joke here? The original question about Li Quan was on the serious side - why not the one about this Krotus guy or gal or assorted Andorian whatnot, too? Besides, the humor angle was already covered pretty nicely...)
