Background

Before entering Train World, Lu Xingyuan was an orphan and shut-in. After awakening in the survival game, his first concern was an unfinished match of Fortune's Losing Streak; he initially lacked exercise and relied on a firearm that had no ammunition. 1 3

He adapted rapidly to the new world. Early genetic enhancement gave him enough strength to overpower hostile conductors, while repeated shooting turned him into a highly accurate marksman against zombies. 8 17

At an early solo platform, he freed an elderly yellow dog from an underground cage. The dog left him Keen Fangs, a pendant that increased his movement speed. 14

Appearance

Lu Xingyuan is a tall, strikingly handsome young man, described as over six feet tall with a clean, refined face and a naturally imposing presence. 6 158

• Sword-like brows and bright, star-like eyes. 114
• Sharp facial contours and a clear, heroic bearing. 114
• Physically imposing after extensive gene enhancement and body-tempering. 119 249
• His appearance is notable enough that other conductors frequently recognize him from his profile image. 6

Personality

Lu Xingyuan is calm, observant, and highly practical. He weighs the utility of items against his own needs, such as choosing the life-saving Dust-Scattering Smoke Pouch instead of the most outwardly powerful treasure in the dog-headed man's collection. 41

He is willing to protect and reward people he considers his own, including Cai Cai, Alice, Teemo, Gu Wanqing, and Yuan Shan. He also aided strangers who resisted oppression or danger, such as the siblings targeted by the Mutual Aid Association. 86 232 368

However, he is ruthless toward threats, betrayals, and perceived disrespect. He rejects moral blackmail, refuses to submit to powerful factions, and often kills opponents who underestimate him or try to exploit his goodwill. 8 235 279 344

His humor is frequently provocative and self-serving; he repeatedly invokes having “read the Spring and Autumn Annals” to deny accusations of impropriety. 8 72
