Personality

Fang Chang is observant, methodical, and highly practical. He approaches unfamiliar settlements as systems to be studied: recording prices, social divisions, local regulations, consumer demand, and possible trade opportunities rather than merely sightseeing. His Boulder City reports become useful strategy material for other players. 249 250

He is also opportunistic and commercially ambitious, readily testing hidden systems such as black-market prosthetic imports, Awakened-organ trading, and S Coin. However, he does not view profit as an end in itself; he considers the long-term effects of player actions on both the Alliance and local survivors. 364 375 378 545

Despite his usually calm and teasing demeanor, Fang Chang is empathetic toward Dolly and supportive of her ambitions. He worries about her safety, encourages her dream of opening a bar, and later marries her. 363 427 1117
