Background

Zheng Sen first rises to prominence in the Flower Country as the son of Zheng Yiguan, the 27th Pillar of the One Treasure Navy. Rejecting his father's allegiance to the Great Jin Kingdom, he challenges Zheng Yiguan for the Pillar position, defeats him, and is recognized by King Ramen Zhu Youjian as the new Pillar. 87

As Pillar, Zheng Sen takes control of a fractured 100,000-man navy. He purges the surrender faction, places Zheng Yiguan and several relatives under house arrest, sidelines rival Yang Tiansheng, and personally secures most of the navy's major fleets. His stated strategy is “Support the King and Expel the Barbarians,” pairing recognition by the Flower Country with opposition to the Dajin Rebel Army. 88

His rule is defined by institutional reform. He bans opium throughout One Treasure Navy territory, destroys seized supplies publicly, seeks to replace opium-based revenue, and plans to reduce excess naval personnel by moving them into productive legions. 89

Appearance

Zheng Sen's appearance varies with the body or identity he occupies. In his Late Ming identity, he is a recently recovered fifteen-year-old youth with a pale complexion, deep eyes, and plain white clothing. 658

  • Can alter his facial muscles with True Qi to disguise himself in public. 554
  • Created a blood-drop avatar identical to himself in appearance and aura. 658
  • His Magnetic Field Rotation can be contained so completely that no outward trace of its power is visible. 658

Personality

Zheng Sen is intensely reformist and purpose-driven. He views corruption, exploitation, opium trafficking, and entrenched elites as obstacles to a Great Harmony society, and he is willing to oppose relatives, governments, sects, and entire cultivation systems in pursuit of that goal. 87 89 666

He approaches problems scientifically and pragmatically. Stranded in an unfamiliar universe and cut off from Headquarters, he immediately studies local rules, reverse-engineers martial arts from residual True Qi, builds a power base, and adapts HIA systems to local conditions. 553 557

His dedication to the greater good is paired with extreme ruthlessness. He executes his own father, Zheng Zhelong, alongside Zheng Clan members and other Quanzhou powerholders, declaring that those blocking his path to Great Harmony must die. 666

Abilities & Skills

Zheng Sen employs forceful predictive and soul-based techniques to acquire information and neutralize enemies.

  • Quantum Future observes particles across a region and uses exhaustive computation to predict local futures. 661
