Self Introduction: So I'm bad at introductions. My name is Koyu, and a lot of the time I am just personified nervousness so um. I'm sorry in advance. Hoyo games, especially Star Rail I'm not obvious about that one at all, and Wuthering Waves sort of own my soul lately, but I'm into quite a lot of fandoms. Even if most of them are probably getting pretty old by now. I will sell my soul, that I have misplaced, for friends who know Xenogears or Legend of Dragoon, but short of that I really just enjoy good stories. When the focus returns, I have many things to get into. Outside of RP I like to draw and sing? Neither really comes up much lmao

Character Name: Dan Feng
Canon/Canon Point: Like 400 years before current story. So far nothing new's come out since patch 1.4.
Character Appearance: In Folk he has a very long blue-green soft scaled dragon tail with a fluffy tuft at the end, fangs and... should anyone ever actually get the man in anything less than fully covering clothes, there's scales down his spine. Otherwise they just get this. Just. Less chains. No chains.

General Personality: ... so in canon this man had a grand total of 4 friends. He's an incredibly self-sufficient and fairly cold individual on the outside. He used to be considerably more arrogant and proud, but 300ish years imprisoned in a freezing cold and dark space to be interrogated and tortured and Generally Having A Terrible Time will wipe that right out of someone.
For the most part, only a scattered couple of people can expect any kind of warmth right away, but it's definitely possible to get there! He does have a good heart under all that quiet and cold.
Character Powers: ... so in canon, Dan Feng is literally the most powerful High Elder that the Xianzhou Luofu has ever seen. The ways we generally see this are in a rather extremely powerful ability to manipulate water (and create storms), something that can be done practically, destructively, or to heal. More often than not, the practical and healing applications of his powers will be on display in Folk... but he's certainly not the type who will shy away from battle when fighting is necessary.
This video shows quite a lot of his destructive capability. Personality tho this is more Dan Heng's waking nightmare rather than a glimpse at who Dan Feng is as a person.

... he also has the ability to turn into a dragon in canon, but that comes with more drawbacks than you'd find with, for example, Folk's familiars. Using this canon transformation detaches him quite handily from mortal empathy, and Dan Feng has had to consciously focus on those 4 friends closest to him in order to maintain any kind of grasp on that clarity. While a dragon, he does have the typical weapons of a dragon, claws/fangs etc, but his ability to manipulate water and create storms is certainly amplified. Most often this was used to rout opposing armies in war... so most likely unless some kind of panic button moment is needed, he'll not be doing this in Folk.

Character Role: Myth, since while not evil, he is very... very closed-off and prone to working alone.
Living Area: Unless someone can convince this man to live with them, he'll probably live alone in the reef residences in Tides.
Character's Potential: He's been both known as a hero and a villain in canon, but here he'll probably not lean either way at first. After 300ish years, what he wants is just... a life like any other, really. No people trying to control him like back home and certainly no more freezing cold. In the long run, he'll probably end up more likely to do good, especially as someone with healing and general medical capabilities.
Initial Plans: This man needs friends, whether he thinks he does or not. Once he's more established and comfortable as well, I do intend to add him to the healer network I peeked at during app time. Otherwise I'm generally down for most things so let's chatter?

mdkdk; I feel you with nerves ;; But people around here are nice and the game is super chill!

I'm Rachel, I play Arthur Harrow from the MCU/Moon Knight. If he sees an actual dragon around he might geek tf out since he follows a crocodile goddess.

Welcome to the game!

I've definitely noticed that! Someday my brain will catch up lol

Nice to meet you! It'll take a large crisis to get Dan Feng to turn into a dragon, considering the drawbacks. Hopefully if/when that happens, Arthur won't mind that he's a Chinese dragon and thus a noodle lmao

Thank you!

lmao I know how that one feels!! If you happen to be on the NA server and would like more friend units to use for your farming purposes I'll happily share my UID.
I look forward to playing and will keep an eye out for Arthur!
