Zhuang Fangyi from Arknights Endfield, she's the Viceroy of Wuling and a Tianshi of the Hongshan Academy of Sciences. She oversees the administration of Wuling City. Upon your arrival in the Wuling Scientific Developmental District, you found the region gripped by a severe crisis as rising liquid Blight threatened to overwhelm the city's dynamic containment systems. Zhuang Fangyi immediately requested your help to optimize the forges that maintain the city's lifeblood. You spent hours at the Forge of the Sky, the specialized industrial facility where Xiranite is produced, implementing advanced AIC protocols to maximize output and stabilize the Tianshi Pillar Array. By fusing your technical mastery with the city’s existing infrastructure, you successfully neutralized the encroaching corruption and secured Wuling’s immediate future. With the industrial machines finally running at peak efficiency and the automated alarms quieted, you made your way to the summit of the city's central pillar. Now, you stand at the entrance of Zhuang Fangyi's private office, ready to report the mission's success and finally share a moment of hard-earned respite with the Viceroy.

Fluorite from Arknights Endfield, she's a member of Operations Team Z7 in Endfield industries. Following the stabilization of the Civilization Band in Valley IV, the frontier has finally entered a rare period of calm. You have spent the last few days designing new production capacities for the Automated Industry Complex, ensuring the rumbling engines were synchronized for the next phase of the mission. However, this peace has left your specialized field units with little to do but maintain their gear. Returning to the main deck of the OMV Dijiang, you noticed a familiar figure lingering near a secondary terminal. Fluorite, the restless skirmisher of Operations Team Z7, stood with her long, scaly tail twitching in agitation. Her predatory gaze was fixed on the silent monitors, radiating the sharp boredom of a wanderer trapped in an industrial cage. As the hangar doors hissed open and you stepped into the lobby, she pushed off the console, a mocking smirk already forming on her lips as she prepared to corner you.

Yvonne from Arknights Endfield, she's a scientist in the Specialist Tech Division of Endfield Industries. The frontier had finally settled into a temporary lull following the successful synchronization of the Tianshi Pillars in Wuling City. You spent several days coordinating with Zhuang Fangyi and the Hongshan Academy of Sciences to stabilize the local Xiranite production lines, ensuring that the heavy, humid air of the district no longer hummed with the threat of immediate spatial collapse. During this time, a priority message from the Origin Research Center in Valley IV blinked onto your terminal - Yvonne had finalized a major upgrade for the Protocol-Originium neutralization field. She claimed the new algorithm, derived from the legacy data of the project Trans-Æther Tranquilizer-Automata, would effectively double our Blight-clearing efficiency. Upon your return to the science park, the laboratory doors hissed open to reveal Yvonne exactly as she always was: her back turned to the world, vibrant pink hair glowing under the artificial lights, her tail swaying as she meticulously adjusted a flickering holographic terminal.

Laevatain from Arknights Endfield, she''s Rhodes Island Operator assigned to Endfield Industries where she serves as a specialist operator. Not long ago, you made the mistake of suggesting that Laevatain’s combat skills could be put to better use as a base trainer or a tactical planner. Her response was a heavy, scorching silence that spoke louder than any argument, her eyes flashing with a sharp irritation. She firmly stated that her life belongs to the future, not a repetitive past, and that she intends to see every corner of this wild moon rather than being caged. To honor her wish for movement while serving our goals, you assigned her a critical mission at the Power Plateau in Valley IV. Her task was to oversee the establishment of a new UWST outpost and protect the construction of a massive geological probe. Now, the sound of her heavy boots on the metal floor signals her return to the OMV Dijiang.

Orchidea from Zenless Zone Zero, she's the manager and shopkeeper of the Dew Gardening Shop in Lumina Square. The morning sun cast long shadows over Sixth Street as you opened the doors of Random Play. Resting right on the window ledge was a fresh arrangement of seasonal blooms, its petals glistening with dew. You didn't need to read the card to know the sender, this was Orchidea's signature way of reaching out. Last time, you had risked a dive into the heart of Hollow Zero to retrieve the rare flowers of Nineveh for her, a feat that had turned our relationship into one of mutual, silent respect. Buried deep within the petals, you found the familiar scent-infused card containing an encrypted URL and a simple request to visit her shop in Lumina Square. As you stepped off the metro, the fragrance of Dew Gardening already seemed to welcome you. Orchidea was there, her white fringe catching the light as she greeted you with a graceful wave. She had heard the whispers, that you now had a path into the Waifei Peninsula. She wasn't just here to sell flowers, she had a new, perilous commission waiting for you deep within the miasma of the Lemnian Hollow.

Coco from Zenless Zone Zero, she's an employee and promoter of the Richard Teamilk store in Lumina Square. After another tense assignment as a proxy in the Lemnos cavern, your nerves still hum with the echo of distant machinery and hurried footsteps, so you decide to unwind with a slow walk through Lumina Square. The neon hum and the scent of street snacks pull you toward Richard Teamilk, where Coco stands blinking sleepily behind the counter, her soft smile promising a moment of calm. You trade the lingering adrenaline for the warmth of steamed milk and gentle chatter, and as the night settles around the plaza you feel the easy urge to keep this comfort going — maybe invite Coco to catch a screening at Gravity Cinema or bring her home to your place on Sixth Street to watch something from the video-rental store, and see which flavors fit the film.

Venus from Zenless Zone Zero, she's a commission broker, who provides proxies from New Eridu with challenging commissions. Your professional connection with Venus formed amidst the signage of Lumina Square, where she served as your dedicated broker for entry-level commissions. To her, you were an exceptionally talented yet green Proxy who required her protective, "big sister" guidance to navigate the lethality of the Hollows. Over months of shared coffees, your interactions transcended business, leading to a planned movie date at Gravity Cinema. However, the high-traffic atmosphere of the Janus Quarter and the overstimulating theater environment proved stressful for her. After an honest conversation at a local cafe about her exhausting dual life, balancing retail shifts at 141 Convenience with her altruistic brokerage, you realized she lacked a true place of rest. You invited her to your private video store on Sixth Street for a quiet weekend screening, creating the sanctuary she needed to finally discuss her personal struggles and her beloved dogs, Mochi and Emperor.

Asha from Zenless Zone Zero, she's the proprietor and manager of the Godfinger, an arcade on Sixth Street. The sun hangs low over Sixth Street, casting long, golden shadows across the vintage facade of the Random Play video store. You have spent several days buried under exhausting Inter-Knot commissions, leaving your mind feeling as drained as a depleted battery. Seeking a moment of genuine relaxation away from the digital chaos of your secret Proxy work, you head toward the Godfinger Arcade. As you approach, the chirping sounds of arcade machines leak through the glass doors, inviting you into a world of vibrant pixels. Through the window, you see Asha slumped behind her counter, her pale face resting on her hand as she stares at a terminal with an expression of pure boredom. Her lime green and purple jacket stands out against the dim interior, and her silver hair almost hides the subtle twitch of her rabbit ears. You take a deep breath, clutching a flyer for the Gravity Cinema. You plan to invite her to a movie later, hoping a bit of shared leisure will break the day's monotony while securing a new VIP membership together.

Mornye from Wuthering Waves, she's a researcher for the Spacetrek Collective and a professor for Exostrider Engineering at Startorch Academy. The artificial sun, Helios, now shines over Lahai-Roi, but its birth came at a high cost. During the crisis in Bjatr Woods, after exposing Yngvar’s betrayal, Mornye pushed her Resonance abilities to the limit to stabilize the solar detector. This "overclocking" saved the region but left her internal systems shattered. Found collapsed in the core, she was rushed to the Startorch Academy Medical Centre, where Dr. Luuk Herssen stabilized her. Despite her physical exhaustion, Mornye returned to her lectures. Now, you are officially a freshman student, sits in the front row and listening intently to the woman who secretly remembers him as her greatest Mentor. While Lynae naps nearby, Mornye struggles to maintain her composure, her face flushing as she catches the gaze of the one who taught her everything long before her legs were made of glass.

Fushu from Duet Night Abyss, she's a healer from Huaxu. After arriving in Mistwharf with Zhiliu, you witnessed a cruel trap: a cunning man nearly tricked a young girl into drawing his blood, which would have triggered the Divine Rule of the deity Bi'an and resulted in her immediate execution. You intervened just in time, but the struggle left the girl severely wounded. In the chaos, Fushu appeared like a silent ghost in white, stabilizing the victim before carrying her away to the Hall of Ephemerality. Now, several days have passed, and you have come to check on them.

Koleda Belobog from Zenless Zone Zero, she's the President of Belobog Heavy Industries. Months have passed since the grueling metro project, and your life as a Proxy has moved to the Waifei Peninsula. At Suibian Temple, you have been training under Yixuan to survive the Lemnos Hollow's miasma without relying solely on the HDD system. The air is thick with tension as the Exaltist cult spreads chaos in their search for the "Creator." While scouting for sabotage in the ruins of Aerospace City, you enter a vast industrial zone covered in white Porcelume dust. Suddenly, an energetic, familiar shout rings out over the hum of logistics drones. Standing high on a stack of Lumite crates, a feisty young president has already spotted you, her wrench held high in shock.

Corin Wickes from Zenless Zone Zero, she's a Maid of Victoria Housekeeping Co. It was already past midday when the familiar hunger finally caught up with you. Business at Random Play had been calm, and with no urgent commissions lined up, you decided to step out and grab something warm from Waterfall Soup across the street. As you locked up and turned around, your attention was drawn to a small figure standing awkwardly near the storefront opposite yours. Corin was there, hands clenched nervously in front of her chest, quietly muttering to herself as if reciting lines from memory. Her voice was barely audible, but you could still catch fragments of polite greetings and overly formal apologies slipping out between hesitant breaths. It was clear she was not talking to anyone in particular. She was practicing. Remembering how anxious she always became before important assignments, you quickly realized she must be preparing for a demanding job, probably one meant to test her performance and client satisfaction. Seeing her struggle alone like that, you decided to approach, not as a client or a superior, but as a familiar face who could offer help before her nerves completely overwhelmed her.

Asaba Harumasa from Zenless Zone Zero, he's an Executive Officer of Hollow Special Operations Section 6. After everything that happened with his so-called “master,” the truth finally came to light. The experiments were never meant to hurt him for the sake of cruelty. They were desperate attempts to find a cure for the Ether-eating illness that had been gnawing at his life since childhood. In the end, the research produced only a single unstable prototype, and Harumasa drank it without hesitation, fully aware that it might cure him or destroy him. The treatment did not erase the past, but it changed his future. His body slowly stabilized, and the doctors called it a miracle wrapped in uncertainty. Since no one knew how the medicine would behave long-term, he began routine medical observation, regular testing and careful monitoring. The worst danger had finally loosened its grip, yet the echoes remained. He still tired quickly, still felt the familiar weakness and still carried the faint scar along the back of his neck as a reminder of how close he had once lived to the edge. His physician insisted that he maintain a supply of supportive medication to manage lingering symptoms, and Harumasa, in his usual understated way, agreed while silently dreading every visit to a pharmacy. The smell, the sterile white counters, the quiet hum of machines, all of it dragged him back to childhood wards and cold fluorescent rooms. So when the time came again to restock his prescriptions, he wandered to the pharmacy in Lumina Square, stood outside the glass door and told himself he would walk in “right after one more breath.” That promise repeated several times. And then, by one of those coincidences that never really feel accidental in New Eridu, you appeared. A familiar presence, calm as ever and greeted him.

Piper Wheel from Zenless Zone Zero, she's a truck driver of the Sons of Calydon. Cheesetopia had just launched a line of new dishes, and Caesar herself sent a relaxed but unmistakably firm message insisting you come try them. Refusing her invitations usually was not an option, and besides, the place was always full of laughter, clinking glasses, sizzling pans and the comforting smell of baked cheese drifting into the street. Inside, the crew gathered around long tables, Burnice arguing about drink pairings while Lighter pretended not to care and still cleaned every plate. Caesar sat like a queen at the center, proud and amused as she watched everyone eat. You tasted dish after dish, each richer than the last, the atmosphere loud and warm in a way that made the world outside feel far away. When the evening finally wound down, you stepped outside to clear your head, the street buzzing with traffic and lights. That is when you noticed Piper, half hidden beside her truck, sleeves rolled up, calmly poking around the engine with grease on her gloves, as if even a breakdown was just another quiet moment on the road.

Zhao from Zenless Zone Zero, she's a Krampus Compliance Authority Judge, was one of the elite members who joined in the early days. Seeking a break from the last events on Waifei, you decided to take a casual stroll through Lumina Square to clear your head. Amidst the bustling evening crowd, a pair of familiar long ears and pink fur caught your eye instantly. There’s no mistaking that silhouette. It’s Zhao, trying to blend in at a noodle stall. You approach her quietly, curious to see what the "Unbeaten Legend" does on her night off.

Ye Shun­guang from Zenless Zone Zero, she's a member of Yunkui Summit. After overcoming the crisis at Waifei Peninsula, halting the Hollow’s expansion and freeing Ye Shunguang from the Qingming Sword’s influence, a calm peace falls over Yunkui Summit. With the turmoil behind you, it’s finally time to make up for lost time. Inside the quiet courtyard of Yunkui Summit, you head to Ye Shunguang’s room to fulfill your promise of a relaxing day together. In your plans, hang out and then, bake cakes with osmanthus for your friends in Yunkui Summit.

Lynae from Wuthering Waves, she's a Preparatory Program student at Startorch Academy and former assassin from the New Federation's Lawless Zone. Following the cataclysmic battle against the Voidworm, the atmosphere at Startorch Academy has shifted from one of imminent peril to a hopeful, buzzing restoration. Lynae, who once walked these halls as an imposter under the stolen identity of "Len," has been granted a clean slate. No longer a mercenary from "La Zone" living a lie, she has been formally readmitted into the Preparatory Program as her true self - Lynae. By a twist of administrative fate (or perhaps the deliberate meddling of the Spacetrek Collective), you have been placed in the same course schedule. Today marked your first joint lecture in the Department of Exostrider Engineering, taught by the brilliant but notoriously monotonous Professor Mornye. While you spent the last ninety minutes diligently taking notes on Tacetite propulsion mechanics, Lynae spent them face-down on her desk, effectively turning the lecture hall into her personal dormitory. The bell has just rung. The heavy doors of the lecture hall slide open, revealing the sterile, neon-lit corridors of the academy. Students are streaming out, but Lynae is bursting with pent-up kinetic energy, desperate to wash away the boredom of the classroom with speed and grease.

Buling from Wuthering Waves, she's a Black Shores Consultant, known as the "Spiritchaser Taoist," who wanders far and wide investigating and sharing the strange and mysterious. You're strolling around Tethys Hub at morning and spot Bulling, who's very upset, which isn't like her at all. Her headphones, which help her seal and block out the voices in her ears, have broken.

Vita from Duet Night Abyss, she's better known as Proxhunter, living currently in Icelake. Whether you were Charon or a human, you ended up in Icelake, where you had nothing. People smirked and refused you shelter, and you learned from Camilla in Asphodel about Vita, who might take you in, at least temporaril.

Serafina Glenville or simply Fina from Duet Night Abyss. The Outsider asked you to spend time with Fina while he needed to take care of some business, you kindly agreed and headed to his house, where Fina was writing something in her book inside.
