Background / History

Neuvillette was an Earth transmigrator who had been playing Genshin Impact before arriving in the Douluo Continent. He was found as an infant in Soto City by Lakesius, a Soul Douluo and patriarch of one of the Eight Hidden Families, who adopted him as his grandson and gave him the name “Neuvillette.” 1

On his sixth birthday, Lakesius personally conducted his Martial Soul awakening. Neuvillette awakened twin Martial Souls: a human-shaped form resembling the Hydro Dragon King and the Tome of Eternal Flow. He later realized the dragon-shaped Martial Soul was his own true form and that he possessed the complete Ancient Dragon Authority. 2 3 5

Focalors, his deceased wife from his prior existence, had transmigrated alongside him and initially resided in his sea of consciousness in Oceanid form. Neuvillette resolved to restore her human body, eventually using the resources of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to aid her resurrection. 2 3 43

Rather than expose his unusual nature, Neuvillette began disguising his power through water-made imitation Soul Rings. He joined the Soul Arena system operated by the Eight Hidden Families, becoming known for strictly fair officiating and unusually low casualty rates in his matches. 5 16 118

His acquisition of the inheritances of the Douluo Hydro and Fire Dragon Kings greatly expanded his elemental capabilities. Afterward, he could manifest his true Hydro Dragon form and effortlessly suppress dragon-blooded Soul Beasts through bloodline hierarchy. 46 50

In later years, Neuvillette revealed himself as the Water Element Rule Incarnation and Hydro Dragon King before Di Tian and the Silver Dragon King. He negotiated with Gu Yuena for the Lake of Life and the Gold of Life in exchange for healing her injuries. 359 361 364

During the conflict with the God Realm, Neuvillette returned to confront the gods threatening Focalors, declaring that he would judge them. Following the conflict, he altered the Douluo Continent’s rules, extended its lifespan, and guided the establishment of the Douluo Federation. 392 399

Appearance

Neuvillette resembles the Chief Justice of Fontaine in both appearance and dress. He is notably striking enough to draw attention in public, though his habitual expression is calm and distant. 6 12

• Approximately 1.8 meters tall by the time he first appears publicly in Soto City. 6
• Waist-length white hair streaked with Hydro Blue. 6
• Two Hydro Blue hair strands resembling altered dragon horns. 3
• Typically wears Hydro Blue formal attire and black gloves. 6
• Carries a Hydro Blue scepter or cane-like implement. 6 175
• Displays Hydro Blue dragon horns and levitates when assuming his Dragon King state. 257 359

Personality

Neuvillette is composed, formal, and difficult to provoke. He speaks politely even to powerful or hostile figures, but he has little patience for needless political entanglements, hypocrisy, or those who abuse the weak. 41 92 143

Justice is central to his conduct. He intervenes to prevent killings in Soul Arena matches, pays Flander far above a crystal’s actual worth because he knows its value, and personally punishes criminals when he believes the innocent are endangered. 8 25 31

Despite his reserved demeanor, he is deeply devoted to Focalors and consistently prioritizes her safety and happiness. He can be quietly playful with her, such as intentionally letting her win at fishing or making her a lasting Hydro Blue Rose. 113 142 196
