Background / History

Jiang Menghan suffered widespread cold violence throughout junior high and high school because of the misfortune surrounding her. Despite this isolation, she possessed an exceptionally strong will and consistently ranked first academically. Her potential was missed by conventional mental reviews, which could only detect a limited portion of Sublimation Lineage indicators. 5 6 194

During her adolescence, her parents were often absent because of scientific work. When her grandmother died, her father instructed her to attend the funeral alone; the resulting loneliness contributed to a period in which she was prepared to risk herself to save a child from an oncoming truck. Su Wen intervened, accompanied her through the loss, and stopped her from acting recklessly. 147

She and Su Wen remained close from high school onward, becoming familiar research partners in university physics competitions. Though outwardly aloof, she regularly teases him in private and entrusts him with responsibilities such as holding his competition prize money. 10 12

Seeking to awaken her hidden potential, Jiang Menghan traveled with Su Wen to Moscow. There she selected the perilous God's Gaze Sublimation method, entered the Artemis Palace trial, and gained the Moon God's inheritance after confronting her memories rather than remaining trapped by them. 146 147

Appearance

Jiang Menghan is a strikingly beautiful young woman with long black hair, clear bright eyes, and an elegant, cool bearing that earned her the “Iceberg Girl” and “Ice Queen” epithets. 77 195 632

• Her black hair turns boundless silver when the Lightless Mirror's power becomes difficult to suppress. 1054
• She often wears the Saint Macarius Flower ornament gifted by Su Wen in her hair. 202
• She can conceal her conspicuous appearance through Moon Concealment. 341
• She favors practical combat attire when operating as a sniper or under a disguise, including a black coat and hat during covert work. 375 823

Personality

Jiang Menghan is calm, analytical, and emotionally reserved. She approaches combat, research, and danger with the same methodical focus, often processing events through physics, mathematics, and practical consequences rather than outward emotion. 143 195 1191

Her distant demeanor does not mean she is uncaring. She worries deeply about her father, looks after Su Wen when he is exhausted, and repeatedly prioritizes civilians and teammates in crises. She values a quiet everyday life with Su Wen more than public recognition or the pursuit of enemies. 20 195 471 1064

Although she was once defined by isolation and misfortune, Jiang Menghan develops a stronger desire to protect others and to claim a future for herself. She is willing to take dangerous paths when necessary, but fears losing the people she has finally come to treasure. 147 1048 1064

Abilities & Skills

Moon God—Artemis Sublimation Lineage

Jiang Menghan's Sublimation Lineage originates from a fragment of Artemis's authority obtained through the Artemis Palace. Its documented aspects include Eternity, Space, Narrative, moonlight, reflection, refraction, and mapping. 147 427

• Waning Moon's stasis — Her first Tier 1 ability briefly froze a dangerous situation for less than ten seconds, enough to protect nearby students. 149
• Mirror Star—Arc Reflection — Manipulates short-range spatial points and projectile trajectories; Jiang Menghan uses it to redirect attacks and improve ballistic lethality. 195
• Snell's Refraction — Forms a moonlight mirror that refracts incoming energy attacks back toward marked enemies. 609
• Moonlight Crest — Marks targets in darkness, allowing reflected attacks and gunfire to strike with high precision. 609
• Mapping and Mirror Leap — Uses reflective surfaces and light-shadow interplay to map environments and teleport to advantageous positions. 330 337
• Moon Concealment — Conceals her appearance and reduces the chance of recognition. 341
• Space Jump — Allows short-range escape and repositioning, though it cannot function if she is completely surrounded by the enemy's Fear ability. 1191

Lightless Mirror

After reaching Tier 3, Jiang Menghan merged the Lightless Mirror with her body and gained access to its dangerous space-related power. 1052

• Lighteater's Black Hole — Grants control over gravitation and destructive spatial phenomena. 1052
• Space-time rifts — Can open rifts for emergency evacuation, as when she escaped Jörmungandr with Su Wen and Phyllis. 1064
• Limitation: She cannot yet safely release the Lightless Mirror's full power; prolonged use causes immense strain, Spiritual Energy conflict, and uncontrolled silver hair. 1052 1054

Marksmanship

Jiang Menghan is an exceptionally composed sniper who combines weapon handling with orbital calculations, spatial manipulation, and Artemis-based targeting. 143 375

• Learned firearm use rapidly in the Moscow Relic Combat Class and calmly made a successful sniper shot under Su Wen's guidance. 143
• Uses Sniping Mastery and Artemis's Gaze to fire high-energy shots with extreme precision. 375
• Moon God's Arrow condenses electromagnetic and moonlight energy into a powerful projectile capable of breaking barriers while avoiding collateral damage. 375 610
• Her prepared Mirror Domain distributes the severe recoil of high-energy sniper fire. 375

Saintess of Misfortune

Jiang Menghan's original bad luck is a pre-Origin Era curse-like talent she had long avoided using. 5 842

• Countdown to the End triggers cascading misfortune around an opponent; during her battle with Inoue Kiyomi, it led to an out-of-control truck breaching the manor. 842 843
• Her curse made those around her prone to accidents before her Tier 1 advancement. 5
• She can shrink the curse's area into a Zero Area through her Space Lineage, making herself untraceable at the risk of diminishing her own sense of existence. 1078

Scientific, Tactical, and Technical Expertise

Jiang Menghan is a top student and a technically capable field operative rather than a purely combat-focused Transcendent. 194 419

• Applies reverse-engineered physics and orbital models to solve shooting and trajectory problems. 143
• Used a specialized analysis program to infiltrate and copy data from a NASA sub-research laboratory during a Black Tide crisis. 330
• Identified dormant transport robots as potential assets and developed a backup plan requiring Abyss-marked relics and a Miniaturized Spiritual Energy Field Amplifier. 419
• Commands and coordinates Night Watch personnel during emergencies, including evacuation and cultist-elimination orders at Coastal City First Hospital. 610
• Later teaches classes at Lorenz Riel and enforces laboratory safety rules strictly. 1185

Equipment / Weapons / Items
