Distinguishing Features

The dimples
Those doe eyes
A vermillion mark between his eyebrows, indicating his status as a legitimized son within the Lanling Jin Sect. He has done what he can to adapt his clothing in Trench to best resemble the Sect colours and uniform he worked tirelessly to earn in canon.
~~Under the black gauze hat he frequently wears when in public,~~ (hat missing in action!!) there is a mean-looking scar just within his hairline. There are numerous other scars littering his body under his clothes that evidence a lifetime of pain and injury, with the largest two being the entry and exit wounds of a bladed weapon penetrating his midsection.

Routine

MORNING/AFTERNOON:

Jin Guangyao rises early out of long-established habit. He begins his day with a visit to the small altar devoted to his mother, Meng Shi, in his residence. Afterwards, he will either spend time on his cultivation or qinggong in his home's small courtyard. If he feels like switching things up a bit, he may venture to the Sanctuary to seek out a quiet place for meditation.

EVENING/NIGHT:

????
it’s a mystery

Reputation

An extremely polite and courteous young man interested in reducing blood pollution and implementing public works projects! Jin Guangyao is hyper-aware of how the world sees him and so aims to always demonstrate unimpeachable conduct. ...In public.

Hooks

Castmates, castmate drama, aspects of his canon future that he isn't aware of yet.
For positive CR, treating him with courtesy and respect, and not simply assuming that he can or should be treated as a servant, even when he defaults to presenting a subservient mien.
For negative CR, do the exact opposite of those things. (OOC note: definitely do lean into it if you go this route, it will create really interesting CR and I'm here for it.)
Cultivation! Martial arts! Daddy issues!
