Background
Quan Yuxun is the only son of the Quan Family's First Branch and the eldest grandson of Quan Shizheng. Raised by his grandfather from childhood, he is the favored heir of the Quan Family's main line and its intended next Grand Duke. He and his cousin Quan Caiwei were both especially close to their grandfather while growing up. 141 166 1621
After graduating from law school, he became the Chief Legal Counsel of the Imperial Senate. His public standing, legal influence, and position as heir to one of the Four Great Noble Families make him a major political figure; he also has hundreds of millions of Star Net followers. 141 1382
The Quan Family's principal business is mining, with Quan's Mining holding rights across several planets. Quan Yuxun is actively cultivated as the family's future leader and handles matters involving both its commercial interests and political influence. 523
Appearance
Quan Yuxun is a tall, slender, refined man with thick black hair, a composed bearing, and gold-rimmed glasses. His understated appearance and manner are carefully maintained and convey wealth without ostentation. 141
- Usually wears formal black suits and gold-rimmed glasses. 141
- Has a warm, persuasive baritone voice. 181
- Is thirty years old as of the end of the previous year. 193
- His trademark expression is the “Quan Yuxun’s Smile”: a gentle smile with a reputation for signaling severe retaliation against those who cross him or his family. 141
- Uses face masks effectively; one disguise presents him as a weary middle-aged man rather than an elegant nobleman. 193
Personality
Quan Yuxun is calm, polished, and exceptionally controlled. He typically treats people with measured courtesy, even in high-pressure negotiations, while concealing sharp calculations behind his habitual smile. His reputation for ruthlessness stems from his willingness to use his legal, financial, and familial influence decisively when the Quan Family is threatened. 141 1607
He values procedure and legal legitimacy, but understands that law is inseparable from power. When seeking to borrow Xia Chujian from the Special Security Bureau, he pursues a plan to loosen its functions through proper channels rather than openly violating restrictions. He also refuses to confer ranks outside proper procedure, even when doing so costs him his Senate position. 211 1599
Despite his strategic nature, he is protective of those he considers his own. He immediately mobilizes Secretary Yun and arranges a space-jump starship when Quan Caiwei is endangered, later assumes responsibility for the destruction of South 404 District to shield Xia Chujian and their operation. 141 207
