So what is this character's story in the history of Three Kingdom's China.

Saelune, Gethsamni care to explain please

She was a leader in Cao Cao's army I thought

How is she not a Dynasty Warriors character yet? A bandit queen, dual-wielding axes is about the easiest character they could make. I don't think Dynasty Warriors has a sadistic female character, so even more confusion!

Trailer though looked solid, I'm not too excited for this game as I think Warhammer has pretty much ruined any chance of me being excited for a historical game, it still looks pretty cool.

Hopefully, Guan Yu and Lu Bu are in it.

No idea. Never heard of her, and I cannot find anything about her anywhere but Total War. She might be made up for the game.

She is not playable (yet) but Dynasty Warriors 9 added Dong Bai, Dong Zhuo's daughter, and she is all evil like her father.

I think she came from Dongping region and I thought she was like a privateer / mercenary after being caught

Be dumb if they weren't... wouldn't be much of a Rt3K (or even Ct3K) adaptation without 'em...

OT: Eeeesh, not sure how I feel about this, given she was mentioned almost only as an aside in the Records. Bandit (active) in Dongping? Yes... Bandit queen? Not so sure, given how little is mentioned of her. That said, it'll make her an easily adaptable character for DW (not that historic accuracy stopped KT from playing free and easy with the cast at all!).

Well, I don't think Lu Bu did much in the grand scheme of things either.

Neither do I, and his role is inflated in Rot3K, IMO... but he does contribute to the Wei/Shu/Wu power balance in how he deals with (or not) Cao Cao & Liu Bei.

Thing is, his inclusion or exclusion would be more to do with what he represents and what he was rather than what he did, because he was very quickly made into a chaotic legendary figure who presented an obstacle to whoever you choose to be the heroic leader of the saga. Plus, there'd be an awful lot of butt-hurt if he wasn't involved!
