Yangyang

Biodata

Power Progression

Background / History

As a child, Yangyang was frightened of injections. Nurses sometimes rewarded her with candy balls afterward, a memory she recalls when examining one of the Magistrate’s tokens 11.

Yangyang joined Taibai because she wanted the courage and confidence to prevent tragedies. After investigating Qichi Village, she acknowledges that she cannot stop the world’s Lament, but wants to do everything possible to prevent sorrow around her 37.

Personality

Yangyang is gentle and attentive to her companions’ well-being. She asks whether Rover’s amnesia and unfamiliar surroundings leave her feeling lost, recommends medical examinations after unusual Resonance phenomena, and assures Rover that she is welcome in Jinzhou regardless of whether she is the Magistrate’s intended guest 3 4 8 28.

Her sensitivity to the wind also makes her acutely aware of danger. Awakening Tacet Fields, powerful Remnants, and disturbances from the Norfall Barrens trouble her, though reassurance from her friends helps her set aside her worries 10 11 27.

She becomes firm when others endanger Jinzhou. After an Exile attacks her, she questions the survivors without her usual gentleness and helps deliver them to the Midnight Rangers for punishment 21 22. Lu Li’s flirtation, by contrast, leaves her blushing and hesitant; she withdraws her hands when he holds them against his chest 10.
