Background
March 7th is an amnesiac Nameless who treats the anniversary of her awakening as her birthday. After the melting of her Six-Phase Ice, she began recording her life through photographs because she does not fully trust her memories to remain intact. Her fear of being frozen again and forgotten by those around her remains a source of insecurity. 177 178
Her room aboard the Astral Express is pink and filled with dolls and photographs. Sparkle later moves in with her, making the room a shared space for the two girls. 85
On her birthday, March explores the Scalegorge Waterscape to photograph its scenery and murals. Believing that the Train Crew has forgotten the occasion leaves her devastated, but the crew ultimately surprises her with a party, reinforcing her sense of belonging among the Nameless. 178

Personality
March is cheerful, excitable, and openly affectionate toward her companions. Bai Sheng describes her as naive, bright, fond of photography and good food, and one of the people who brings life to the Astral Express. 211
She regularly jokes, improvises dramatic titles for herself and her friends, and makes bizarre comparisons drawn from stories or shows she has heard about. Her playfulness is especially apparent around Sparkle, with whom she is comfortable enough to bicker and roughhouse without restraint. 393 398
Beneath that carefree manner, March is protective and resilient. She refuses to abandon Arlan during the Anti-Matter Legion attack, expends herself shielding allies from the Doomsday Beast, and remains concerned for Yan Qing and Yunli even after being wounded by Hulei. 74 77 461
