The following is a list of fictional people significant to the Three Kingdoms period (220–280) of China. The list includes characters in the 14th-century historical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms by Luo Guanzhong and those found in other cultural references to the Three Kingdoms period.

• Nan Hua (南華), a Taoist immortal from Mount Hua who gave Zhang Jue the book "Taiping Yaoshu" and told him to spread the teachings in the book. He is the Saint Hermit of the Southern Land.

Pan Feng is the subject of a Chinese internet meme involving a line from the novel, "Here's one of my best men, Pan Feng. He can destroy Hua Xiong." This meme is a cultural phenomenon and has led to a surge in Pan Feng's popularity^[1] to rival the more well known figures of the Three Kingdoms period. This popularity has been attributed to various causes, such as desire to poke fun at traditions as a novelty, to feelings of helplessness and lack of individual recognition in Chinese society. It has spawned multiple fake biographies detailing the supposed exploits of Pan Feng that were supposedly too great to be mentioned officially.^[2]

His soldiers wore armour made of dried and oiled rattan, which was light enough to float on water, yet sufficiently hard to prevent sharp blades from penetrating, so they were known as the "Rattan Armour Army" (藤甲兵). He scored initial successes against the Shu forces due to his army's impenetrable armour.

When Zhuge Liang finally cleared the misunderstanding with Liu Shan, he asked where Gou An was, but Gou An had already fled to Wei.
