Hero among Heroes: Five Tiger Generals (Passive): B
"There are two types the geniuses, those recognized by commoners, and those recognized by other geniuses"... Zhao Yun existed in an era full of people who by all purposes could be considered larger than life - and still stands out among them as one of the "Five Tiger Generals" of Shu. A Hero of Heroes is the epitome of what human beings can attain physically without alteration.
Honor before Reason (Passive): C-
If given the choice between what makes sense and what is virtuous and honorable, Zhao Yun would choose the latter any day. He is one of those incorrigible goody-two-shoes and while idealistic and naive, but without doubt gallant.

Game Zhao Yun only, Zhao Yun activates all his combat prowess to deliver several attacks while invincible for the duration of the Musou ("Matchless") Attack.

Sword of Light: B-
Once wielded by Xiahou En, hero of Wei. A pair with the Sword of Heaven, wielded by none other than the Lord of Wei Cao Cao himself. Zhao Yun acquired this sword from slaying Xiahou En at the battle of Changban
Bailong (Familiar): C+
As Ex White Rider, Zhao Yun has a white warhorse named Bailong which is loyal to him. Like all warhorses, Bailong is used to being in combat and less likely to be scared by things like loud noises or even fire.
Record of Three Kingdoms (History):
Zhao Yun was a vassal to the State of Shu known for his handsome appearance and honorable behavior. He had nearly no faults at all as human and was wise, brave and powerful all at the same time. The fairytale prince of your dreams so to say - except he actually existed.
Romance of Three Kingdoms (Novel):
At the battle of Changban, Zhao Yun charged alone into enemy territory to save his King's wife and infant son. The enemy consisted of a large army and up to 5000 elite cavalrymen... but Zhao Yun fought his way through, even as the enemy warlord sends out a hero of his own, Zhao Yun could not be stopped and retrieves the Sword of Light from his opponent. He finally found the Lady who, knowing Zhao Yun would foolishly try to save her as well despite her injury, commited suicide on the spot to force him to focus on saving her son.
