Wuthering Waves Characters

Jianxin

Jianxin is a Wuthering Waves character born in the wilderness and raised in a Taoist sect where she learned the martial arts of Fengyiquan. Her upbringing instilled in her a pure and persistent dedication to perfecting her martial arts skills. With the power to harness and transform environmental Chi, she can create protective barriers that purify both body and mind. Now, she journeys into the secular world, eager to experience the bittersweetness of everyday life and gain a deeper understanding of the world around her.
