Background / History

Zhao Han first appears as a young, nervous transfer student taught by Wenren Sheng. After activating her Otherworldly Species, she begins contributing to investigations through her knack for uncovering hidden truths, including exposing an impostor in the Ding Chengshan case. Her curiosity about Otherworldly Species and admiration for more experienced users drive her to train and seek greater strength. 3 30 97

Her Seed of Narration develops into a useful investigative and prophetic ability. Although initially unable to reveal enough about a group exploiting elderly people for drug trials, she learns the Resonance Method from Wenren Sheng and receives his enhancement, allowing her to expose their scheme. 249

The Heaven’s Mandate Evil Society later abducts Zhao Han and edits her memories in an effort to turn her into an informant. Their loyalty test instead confirms that she is too rebellious and unpredictable to control. Wenren Sheng secretly substitutes a Puppet for her and tracks the Society, ensuring her recovery. 796 797

During a martial-world script, Zhao Han becomes the hound Big Tiger. She cultivates canine bloodline martial arts, builds the Hero Network, and uses it to spread information across the Martial World, Imperial Court, and countryside. Her network’s public scrutiny curbs abuses, though it also disrupts established authority. 1558 1570 1575 1576

Appearance

Zhao Han’s appearance changes substantially between scripts and roles rather than remaining fixed.

• Appears as a young, fidgeting transfer student in her earliest appearance. 3
• Becomes the large hound Big Tiger during the Dragon Han scenario. 1558 1560
• Disguises herself as a purple dog while infiltrating the Holy Church. 1570
• Plays the male protagonist Jia Baoyu in a Dream of the Red Chamber-inspired scenario. 2001
• Later lives under the male identity Zhao San in the Siheyuan era. 2201 2219

Personality

Zhao Han is curious, energetic, and strongly motivated by self-improvement. She envies Wang Wenwen’s broad talents, returns determined to excel academically, and repeatedly seeks instruction from Wenren Sheng and others. 119 207 249

She has a compassionate but increasingly pragmatic moral outlook. After using her power to save a child suffering from carbon-monoxide poisoning, she resolves to “be kind to kind people and evil to evil people,” rejecting indiscriminate forgiveness of malicious people. 2210

Her defiance makes her difficult to manipulate. The Heaven’s Mandate Evil Society abandons its attempt to make her an informant after her responses reveal an ingrained rebelliousness. She is nevertheless capable of caution, refusing Wang Weiguo’s proposed contract because Wenren Sheng taught her not to casually enter agreements involving extraordinary powers. 797 2211
