Background

Zhan Lan became self-reliant after her parents died in a car accident while buying her birthday cake on her twelfth birthday. She attributes her resilience to having lived without them from that point onward. 21

Before entering the Main God's trials, she was a writer. Rather than being immediately overwhelmed by the unfamiliar Horror Movie world, she was excited by the limitless inspiration it offered and approached Zheng Zha's group herself. 3

Appearance

Zhan Lan is a small-framed young woman with a slightly prominent forehead. Touching that forehead is a habitual gesture, particularly when she is thinking or speaking. 5 11

• Has a fuller-than-average bust. 5
• Often touches her forehead while analyzing a situation. 5 8 11
• Her shoulder is badly wounded by an Alien's tongue during the Alien One trial, though the injury is later repaired by the Main God. 21 42

Personality

Zhan Lan is observant, adaptable, and remarkably composed under lethal pressure. Zhang Jie considers her and Zheng Zha the most mentally capable of their first group of newcomers because they accept the reality of the trials and overcome their fear quickly. 6

She is pragmatic about survival, emphasizing plot knowledge, weapons, Reward Points, and preparation. At the same time, she is deeply protective of those she accepts as companions. Her fear of abandonment is tied to losing her parents early in life, and she repeatedly supports Zheng Zha despite the personal danger involved. 21 23 40

She also has a playful, teasing manner around Zheng Zha, often masking fear or concern with giggling remarks and flirtation. 5 20 23
