Lore

Character Biography:

Female/Age 70.
A renowned Nen Master from Suju and one of the seven founders of the Grim Seekers. She is called the 'White Flower' due to being well-known for her blossoming white nen flowers.

In the past, during the time of the Screaming Cavern Incident, she coincidentally embraced the spirit of Sirocco while on her way to the Screaming Cavern through the Red Forest on the border between Suju and Elvenguard.
Afterwards, she witnessed the Prophecy of Destruction from Sirocco's memory, and was drawn to six other individuals, and together they established the Grim Seeker organization.
After its establishment, she held the position of high priest, and serves as the second-in-command under the high priest, Prophet Ezra.
With a great personality and soft charisma, she highly respected among the seven founders of the Grim Seekers.
Additionally, she is an important figure who receives high praise from the Grim Seeker followers, and when she headed toward Los Chest for the sake of the mission, many followers volunteered to follow suit.
She has a star pupil named Awakened Wujo.

Conversation between Mandarin & Rosenberg:

"... So, I'd like to ask you two to take care of the Dark Side branch."
It was the Prophet who spoke, but Mandarin turned toward Rosenberg, examining the look on his face.
The Prophet was asking them to kill themselves for the sake of their plans.
Rosenberg just stood there, looking as expressionless as always.

"Are you ready, Rosenberg?"
Mandarin tried to sound playful when she asked.
She'd lived long enough and wasn't really afraid of dying, but...

"I'm not afraid to die, but it's a shame that I won't be able to see the new world after the advent of Extinction."
Rosenberg's calm voice impressed Mandarin.
The snotty little kid had grown into this man.

The Prophet gazed into space and stayed quiet for a while, unable to find words to say.
"Thank you. Your sacrifices will save a great many lives."
Mandarin clenched her hands under her robe,
promising to herself again that she would do everything in her power for the success of the Ritual.

Trivia

• Mandarin's character is inspired from The Ancient One who appears in the live action Doctor Strange film.
• Her fighting techniques are very similar to that of Toki's from Hokuto no Ken/Fist of the North Star.
  • For example: Her berserk is identical to his Hokuto Ujo Hagan Ken.
• If playing as either Male or Female Nen Master, Mandarin has special dialogue for them.
• In the DFOG version, her name is mistranslated as the 'Mandarin of a Hundred Flowers'. In the Korean version, her name is '백화 만다린' (baekwa mandarin) which literally translates into 'White Flower Mandarin'. This mistranslation is most likely due to '백' also meaning 'hundred' in Korean.
  • In her character biography, it claims she gained her moniker due to her "하얀 넨화를 피우는 것으로" which translates to 'blossoming white nen flowers'.
