Meirong Doran

Meirong Doran is the leader of the Doran Clan and the daughter of Jianyu and Xiurong Doran. She was the one who killed Iliana Saburo and helped hold down Harold Saburo.

Appearance
As a child, Meirong would wear the traditional red and black Longpao that all royals except the Emperor would wear that featured flowers, dragons and waves on it. Along with that, she would wear her hair in a topknot and the Doran Clan's traditional hairpin worn by the Crown Prince or Princess.

As an adult, Meirong usually wears her hair in a loose ponytail and a tank top tucked into high-rise jeans. She only ever wears her topknot, hairpin, and Longpao on formal occasions such as her weddings or formal dinners hosted by her father. She always keeps a katana strapped to her back and two grenades on either side of her waist.

As empress, Meirong wore the traditional Emperor's Hairpin and yellow Longpao. She continued to wear a katana strapped to her back.

Personality
Meirong is extremely driven, frequently training and improving her skills despite being considered one of the best fighters within the clan. As a child, she longed for respect from both her father and the rest of her clan. As an adult, she doesn't seem to particularly care either way, only choosing to stay in the clan and become the next head in order to ensure her husbands and wife get to live a life of luxury.

History
Meirong was born while Jianyu was living with Lilah and Beatrice Wilkes, conceived during one of his 'business trips.' Even at a young age, Meirong understood that her father didn't love her, although she didn't know why. Due to her father usually being absent, Meirong spent most of her time with her mother. However, Xiurong was extremely sick, so Meirong spent a lot of her youth in her mother's bedroom.

Xiurong eventually died when Meirong was seven, and her grandmother Jianying became her new parental figure. Jianying was kind to Meirong, but was also tough, knowing the hardships her granddaughter would face upon becoming the next head. Meirong said she likely spent most of her time training, spending her time off with her grandmother.

When her grandmother died, Meirong was completely devastated. She spent six months straight training before fully breaking down.
