Suwei is a fictional character from the popular Chinese web novel series *The Legend of the Condor Heroes* (神雕俠侶) by Jin Yong. The story is set in the Song Dynasty and follows the lives of several martial artists, with Suwei serving as one of the central figures in the early chapters.

Suwei is the daughter of Su Qing, a skilled martial artist and former member of the Shaolin Temple. She is known for her intelligence, resourcefulness, and strong sense of justice. Unlike many female characters of her time, Suwei is portrayed as independent and capable of defending herself. Her early life is marked by tragedy, as she witnesses the death of her father and is later taken in by the Shaolin Temple, where she trains under the guidance of Master Zhi.

Suwei’s character is defined by her loyalty and determination. She plays a crucial role in the early conflicts of the novel, particularly in the events surrounding the Shaolin Temple’s struggles with external threats. Her interactions with other characters, such as Yang Guo and Mu Yanzheng, shape key plot developments. Over time, Suwei’s journey reflects themes of perseverance and the challenges faced by women in a male-dominated martial arts world.

The character of Suwei has been adapted into various media, including television dramas, films, and video games, further cementing her place in Chinese popular culture. Her portrayal often emphasizes her strength, wisdom, and emotional depth, making her a memorable figure in the broader *Condor Heroes* universe.
