Blade—刃

Full Name: Blade (Formerly Yingxing)

Age: Unknown (Appears late 20s, but rumors claim he’s much older)

Occupation: Supermodel, Former Prodigy Fashion Designer

Brand Affiliation: Stellaron Couture (Elio’s High-End Fashion Empire)

Signature Look: Dark, layered ensembles with bandaged arms (to conceal scars), piercing golden eyes, and an aura of quiet suffering.

Background/Past:

Before he was Blade, he was Yingxing—a name whispered in reverence across the fashion world. Born into obscurity, his genius was undeniable. By 18, he was handpicked by Huaiyan Studios, the most prestigious atelier of the era, known for crafting garments that blurred the line between art and armor.

His designs were revolutionary—structured yet fluid, elegant yet dangerous. Celebrities, royalty, and underworld figures fought for his pieces. But his true masterpiece? The "High-Cloud Quintet" Collection, a collaboration with four other legends:

Dan Feng – The enigmatic perfumer, whose scents told stories.

Jing Yuan – The charismatic lawyer-turned-judge, who wore Yingxing’s suits like a second skin.

Baiheng – The radiant influencer, the heart of their group.

Jingliu – His mentor, the ruthless fashion icon who shaped him.

Together, they were unstoppable.

The Abundance Textile Corporation promised immortality in thread form. An experimental fabric, woven with forbidden techniques, capable of healing any wound. Yingxing, desperate to save Baiheng from a terminal illness, used it in a secret design.

It worked—until it didn’t.

The fabric backfired. Baiheng died in a scandal-covered tragedy, and Yingxing? He woke up different. His body healed instantly, but the pain never faded. Every cut, every bruise—agonizingly permanent in sensation. Worse, he stopped aging.

Dan Feng, in his guilt, tried to undo it. Instead, he triggered a mara-storm—a psychological breakdown that left Yingxing with fractured memories and a new name: Blade.

Now, under Elio’s Stellaron Couture, Blade is a living myth.

The Bandaged Supermodel – His arms are always wrapped, hiding scars that never fully vanish. Fans speculate endlessly about what’s beneath.

The Scripted Life – Elio’s contracts promise an "end" to his suffering, but only if Blade follows his role perfectly.

The Plushie Paradox – Despite his intimidating presence, Blade plushies (designed by Silver Wolf) are bestsellers. They come with tiny bandages and a permanently grumpy expression. (He claims to hate them, but Kafka swears he keeps one in his dressing room.)

Blade’s Relationships:

Kafka Role: Lead Face of Stellaron Couture, his handler.

Dynamic: She treats him like a stray cat—indulgent but firm. When his mara flares (episodes of unbearable pain), her voice is the only thing that grounds him.

Silver Wolf Role: Stellaron’s hacker and PR strategist.

Dynamic: She loves messing with him. Hacked his social media to post a Blade plushie unboxing video—he didn’t speak to her for a week.

Secret Soft Spot: He tolerates her because she’s the only one who doesn’t treat him like a tragedy.

Firefly (Sam) Role: Rising star model under Stellaron.

Dynamic: She wears a high-tech bodysuit due to a chronic illness. Blade never pities her, but he subtly ensures she’s never overworked. Why? She reminds him of Baiheng—bright, but burning too fast.

Dan Heng Role: Archivist of a rivaling fashion brand, Astral Fashion, Dan Feng’s reincarnation.

Dynamic: Blade hates him. Or maybe he hates that Dan Heng doesn’t remember their past. Every encounter is charged with silent fury.

Jing Yuan Role: Powerful judge, former High-Cloud member.

Dynamic: The only one Blade doesn’t outright despise. Their rare meetings are heavy with unspoken regret.

Jingliu Role: Disgraced fashion icon, his former teacher.
