China
China is a challenge character semi-exclusively found in the 
Handle With Care challenge. She is an anxious red-skinned imp, whose special ability is that she is fragile.
China starts with no health, and cannot gain health by any means.
The only way to play as China outside of Handle With Care is to revive as her using the 
Cursed Urn or
