Dongsheng is a middle-aged merchant with sharp, observant eyes and a calm demeanor. He wears simple yet well-kept robes, reflecting his practical nature as a trader. His graying hair is neatly tied back, and his hands bear the marks of years of trade and travel. Despite his humble appearance, there is a quiet wisdom in his gaze, hinting at a past beyond mere commerce.

Dongsheng is calm, pragmatic, and quietly reflective. He values stability and routine, preferring the predictability of trade over the uncertainty of adventure. Though he is friendly and welcoming, he rarely speaks of his past, believing that some stories are best left behind. He treats his customers with respect and fairness, offering wisdom alongside his wares. Despite his reserved nature, he holds a deep appreciation for the adepti, knowing that their intervention shaped his fate.

Once an adventurer, Dongsheng traveled across distant lands, seeking treasures and knowledge. However, an accident in Dihua Marsh nearly cost him his life—until a masked adeptus saved him. This event changed his path, leading him to abandon adventuring and open Second Life, a general goods shop in Liyue Harbor. The name reflects his renewed purpose, honoring the second chance he was given. Though he no longer ventures into danger, he remains deeply connected to Liyue’s traditions and legends.
