Welcome to Wansui
Fun jing lai maan seoi
People of Wansui
In order to make our setting feel more alive and lived in, we have populated the town of Wansui with numerous NPCs who play both primary and secondary roles in our plotlines. These NPCs are part of Wansui's living, breathing organic ecosystem, and can be interacted with upon request.The people of Wansui are largely split into the following factions listed below:
The Tin Dei Wui - 天地會
The Tin Dei Wui, identifiable in their iconic white tunics, are the largest gang in Wansui. These gangsters, known alternatively as hatchetmen, highbinders, and 'itchy onions', are the primary authority in the parts of Wansui they control. These boys in white can generally be trusted to maintain order, but don't be fooled. They're not here to protect you, only the profits of the illegal businesses that line their pockets.
The Qing Bang - 青幫
The Green Brotherhood, also known as the Qing Bang, are recent arrivals in Wansui, but have quickly asserted themselves as a serious threat to Tin Dei Wui hegemony in the town. The two gangs are natural enemies. The Qing Bang hail predominantly from the chilly northern plains of Yanxia, fueling an intense regional rivalry with the Tin Dei Wui, whose highbinders are natives of the balmy southern Yanxian coast. Moreover, while most Tin Dei Wui are veterans of the Doman resistance, nearly every Qing Bang is a former Imperial conscript. The Qing Bang's main stronghold in Wansui is the Jade Hairpin pillowhouse, which has quickly become one of the most lucrative businesses in town.
The Zing On Si - 靖安司
The Zing On Si (靖安司 - Literally, the ‘Bureau of Tranquility and Peace’) is a branch of the Prefectural Government which functions as an armed police force charged with enforcing law and order on the troubled streets of Wansui. The ranks, training and operational doctrine of the Zing On Si closely resembles the Sekiseigumi police force of the city of Kugane across the Ruby Sea. For myriad obvious reasons, the Zing On Si faces a steep uphill battle in its mission to rid Wansui of organized crime, focusing their efforts on maintaining a balance of power between the different Triads for the sake of keeping the peace, mitigating collateral civilian casualties during Triad wars, and removing low level thieves, crooks and murderers off the street.
The Magistrate's Office
Existing in a wealthy district gated off from the filth is a caste of Doman Government Officials, tasked with bringing law and order to Wansui. Most of these Samurai lawmen and Scholar-beuracrats are fully in the pocket of the Triads. Others, however, have proven harder to corrupt, ardent in their quest to break the power of the Tongs and put an end to Wansui's chronic lawlessness.
The Confederacy
The seaborne freebooters of the Confederacy are a key ally of the Doman Triads, who pay the pirates handsomely to smuggle their illegal drugs to foreign shores. Rowdy bilge rats from the Ruby Sea are a common sight on the Fragrant Wharf, where they are frequently seen terrorizing the coolies and the flowerboat girls.
The Civilianry
While Wansui is run by gangsters, the majority of its population are civilians. Wansui's residents are drawn from the drinking, scheming, drinking, pimping lower classes of Doma. They are drug addicts seeking a steady drip, disgraced whores exiled from reputable brothels, doctors and dentists who have lost their licenses, and all manner of people with similarly morbid stories.
Named NPCs of Wansui
Below are some of the named, unique NPCs who can be interacted with on request.
Auntie Jiang
"I believe in harmony. Balance. Peace. And I don't mind spilling a little blood to achieve it."
The Grand Dragon and “Honoured Chairman” of the Tian Di Hui Tong. A woman who portrays the facade of a sophisticated matron and businesswoman but whose kindly ‘auntie’ act disguises a ruthless, cold-blooded master strategist. One of the most respected community leaders in Doma, everyone has endless praise for the benevolent Auntie, but no one dares whisper a single unkind word about her.
Four Finger Wu
"Tightfist Tung. Best warrior I ever knew. Took down a fornicating gunship in the war. Just to be taken down by some Itchy Hop Sing onion. Karma is a sick comedy, neh?"
A large, balding Roegadyn with the demeanor of a drill sergeant. A veteran of both Doman rebellions, serving with the Tian Di Hui when it was still a clandestine band of freedom fighters. Unable to adjust back to civilian life after the liberation, he remained with the Tong, and joined it in its transition into a criminal organization.
Big Smile Lau
"You know why they call him 'Big Smile'? Not because of his cheery fucking personality."
A quiet, sullen and humourless highbinder, and perhaps one of the most dangerous cutthroats in Wansui, second only to Koban himself. A thick, jagged scar runs prominently across his neck. Big smile indeed...
Big Fatso
"Big Fatso smash!"
A developmentally disabled Roegadyn with the intelligence of a small child, Big Fatso is an absolute unit of a man, coming in at 7'5ft tall and 420lbs. To Jonny Koban, he is the ideal underling, massive enough to smash all the Tong's enemies, far too stupid to be disobedient.
Bucktooth Lo
"I studied the four books, the five classics, and the eight arts... but all I want to do is fight!"
A bright young intellectual. The youngest of Jonny Koban's highbinders. He came from a well-to-do family of urban literati, and spent his boyhood studying hard to pass the civil service exam. Regularly bullied by his fellow gangsters over his bookishness.
Sho Toku - The Black Whirlwind
"Our brotherhood pays our enemies with suffering and death. And none suffers more than a traitor!"
A former paratrooper in the Imperial Ferae Domitae, and champion of the Green Brotherhood. Toku embodies the trope of the brutal but honourable warrior. He is just as violent as his peers but possesses stern-yet-fair integrity most criminals lack.
Yan He - The Iron Whistle
““I’ve never met a wuxia that could throw a punch faster than my side piece spits lead.”
Formerly known as Aquila pyr Yan. A native of the northern Doman town of Liangkiau, Yan He was conscripted into imperial service when he was a young man. Decades of military service for the Garlean Empire left him profoundly disconnected with his friends and family. Disillusioned and driftless after the Empires’ collapse, he fell in with the Green Brotherhood Gang and fell back upon his military experience to become one of their most effective enforcers.
Minister Gao
"The noble person acts in harmony with others but does not seek to be like them; the petty person seeks to be like others and does not act in harmony."
The government appointed magistrate of Wansui. A stern, ostensibly incorruptible government official singularly devoted to limiting the power of the Triads and introducing the six virtues to the thieving, pimping, whoring underclasses of a stubbornly lawless town that refuses to embrace civilization.
Abbot Liu
"The temple bell echoes the impermanence of all things. The colours of the flowers testify to the truth that those who flourish must decay. Pride lasts but a little while, like a dream on a spring night."
The Abbot of Lady Tinhau Temple, whose upkeep is paid for by the Tin Dei Wui. Abbot Liu is a kind, sagely old man who seems genuinely dedicated to his faith, doing his utmost to serve as a caring lead custodian for his house of worship.
Madame Wong
“Virginity sells at a premium, and with the right preparations, a girl can be a virgin ten times for ten different men.”
The proprietress of the Golden Gully Brothel. Like most mama-sans, Madame Wong has only one god, and that is money.
Butcher Song
"Fuiyoh! This skewer is delicious! What is it?"
"Rule number one of Wansui, saai lo, never ask what's in the meat."
A butcher who came to Wansui to sell meat which is illegal in the rest of Doma, such as dog, monkey, and the ever elusive talkign catfish. He has three fingers on his left hand, which he claims is the result of an accident involving a meat hook.
Ma Yutao
"A man fights for many reasons. Pride, honour, revenge. A woman... a woman is simply at war."
An opera singer who used to perform for the incredibly prestigious National Yanxia Opera Company, the late King Kaien Rijin’s favourite group of performers. She was expelled from her troop after being accused of the murder of her husband, a fellow opera singer. Her career in disgrace, she now performs at Wansui's Red Skies Theatre, a backwater stage in a lawless frontier town.
Doctor Cheng
"Jade pillar wilted, neh? Nothing to be ashamed of. Some powdered Lupin's claw is just what a... healthy gentleman like you needs to revitalize his yang energy..."
The primary healthcare provider for the gangsters of the Tin Dei Wui Triad. Once a respected physician administering to high-ranking officials in Doma Castle, Doctor Cheng was forced to come to Wansui after losing his medical license for reasons he has yet to reveal.
Zheng Zhilong
“The day I was born, the sages of Yanxia declared the sighting of Qilin: he of the resplendent scales, which heralds the coming of a wise and benevolent ruler.”
The father of Zheng Sen and the Wakō sea lord of the Zheng pirate fleet, a faction of the Ruby Sea Confederacy. A ruthless, cruel and amoral man.
Zheng Tianshou
“Godless? My friend, I am the godliest man to ever raise sail! From the Glittering Basin to the Northern Empty, when men see the prow of my war junks, they pray…”
The son of Zheng Zhilong, half-brother of Zheng Sen / Jonny Koban, and currently the heir apparent to the Zheng fleet. An unhinged sadistic lunatic who takes hedonistic pleasure in experimenting with human suffering and death.
Hei Tianhou
“To your last breath, I will love you as I love life itself... voraciously.”
Tianhou has come a long way from her humble beginnings as the sheltered Siren of the seaside village of Hiyokusu. The red sails of Tianshou's war junks signalled the change in her winds, and she now thrives as his Dark Empress of Heaven, whose bloodied hands guide the tides of his sadism. A cold and calculating young woman with dead eyes, it is hard to believe she has been Tseene of the Qestir, the baby sister of Badamlyankhua of the Qestir, better known as Meng Mei.
Rules of the Wansui Community
You must be able to seperate IC from OOC. Due to the nature of this setting, a lot of us play morally evil characters. You will have to understand that our character's moral values are not reflective of our own.
You must be okay with dark themes in RP, including but not limited to prejudice, abuse and exploitation. None of these things will be forced on your character directly without open communication and consent, but you should be prepared to experience ambient exposure to these themes.
With that said, all prejudice is strictly in-universe and must be kept entirely to the confines of RP, any OOC prejudice on the basis of peoples' ethnicity, sexual orientation, etc, is strictly forbidden. Any in-character prejudices which are obvious veils/dogwhistles for real world bigotry are also strictly forbidden.
OOC communication and consent is mandatory before any player character attempts to victimize, abuse, or otherwise start conflict with another player character. Its crucial to learn each other's boundaries before engaging in RP of a sensitive nature.
Actions have consequences. We operate on the principal of mirrored consent. Whatever your character inflicts upon others, you must be okay with retaliation of equal severity being potentially inflicted on your character. In short, you may not commit villainous actions ICly then refuse to face the consequences of your actions OOCly.
Don't have main character syndrome. While we do our best to create a setting where the actions of players can have meaningful and lasting impacts on the world, anime protagonist characters are no fun. Don't come in expecting to singlehandedly vanquish all evil, destroy injustice and restore order to Wansui. Fix-all / Bulldozer characters who are written in a way that trivializes all threats and challenges won't be received well.
Character Guidelines
We greatly prefer sensible, relatively low-power characters that can seamlessly blend in with a well-rounded population of plausible characters. That is not to say your character cannot have unique or special qualities, just not so much so that they are elevated to the level of an MSQ protagonist.
We greatly prefer "plausible" characters to "rare case" characters. If you aren't sure what that means, essentially we prefer OCs who would not look out of place as one of the NPCs in Yanxia, the Doman Enclave, or the Ruby Sea and who are 'normal' in the sense they aren't secretly a god, ascian, voidsent, et cetera. Characters who are respectable, powerful or come from high ranking noble backgrounds are fine, but we expect these themes to be exercised with tasteful restraint on the part of the writer and not just be a power fantasy. So, no half-Oni half-Kitsune criminal Kingpins of the entire Kugane underworld, and no adopted Viera Dark Knight sons of the Hingan Emperor.
Characters with a criminal background, ties to organized crime, or a desire to get involved with organized crime will slot in naturally into the Wansui environment.
Chinese-coded characters are also a natural fit, criminal or not. Wansui is unique from most FFXIV Far East RP in that it is more Chinese-coded than Japanese-coded. However, Wansui ultimately draws from both Chinese and Japanese cultural motifs, and Japanese coded characters are still very welcome and will fit in just fine in this setting.
FAQs
Why is Wansui China-coded? Isn't Doma a Japan-coded nation? - Its true. Doma as presented in the FFXIV setting has a superficial Japanese culture. Its place names and people names are Japanese, and quintessentially Japanese things like Ninjas and Samurai being placed front and center in the nation’s presentation throughout the MSQ. However, unlike Hingashi, which is practically a 1:1 recreation of mid-1800s Japan within the FFXIV setting, the nation of Doma is not only Japanese in its worldbuilding, but draws heavily from the cultures of other east Asian nations, China predominant among them. Doma’s Chinese-inspired cultural elements are more than substantial enough for us to use it as the backdrop for our heavily China-inspired homebrew setting.
Is there is a lore basis for the use of the Chinese language in RP? - Kind of. Official lore makes it clear that the Doman language is Japanese-coded, and mutually intelligible with Hingan. However, scant references to an ancient Doman language imply the existence of a Chinese-coded tongue from Doma's antiquity. Moreover, various Chinese-coded game entities like the Swallow's Compass Boss Qitian Dasheng, the Taoist clothing set, and table decorations like Siu Mai help legitimize our stylistic choice to depict the local dialect of Wansui as Chinese, rather than Japanese.
Do I have to learn Chinese phrases in order to RP in Wansui? - Absolutely not. Our use of foreign language words in RP never extends beyond single words or short phrases, whose meaning is either baked into the context of the emote or directly translated for the reader. The purpose of using Chinese words & phrases in RP is not to obscure our RP behind a veil of impenetrability, but simply to add some foreign flare to our otherwise simple, easy to access English language RP. If you are uncomfortable incorporating foreign words & phrases into your RP you may simply used [bracketed English] to depict the Doman language in RP.
What if I'm not comfortable with my character being exposed to in-universe sexism/racism/prejudice? - You will never be judged for having preferences and boundaries, and while it will be hard to avoid these themes entirely, we will do our best to work within the constraints of your comfort zone and will never force you to RP out something you consider distressing. We practice open communication and no one will ever be made to feel like they're being a burden for saying 'can we pause? I'm a little uneasy about XYZ...' It should also be noted that Wansui's prejudicial themes are strictly in-universe, based on the worldviews and social norms of pre-modern Edo Era Japan & Imperial China. Direct parallels to modern prejudices, be they based on ethnicity, sexual orientation or otherwise, are strictly forbidden.
The PCs of Wansui have come to this town of sin for several reasons. Some are conmen, grifters and chancers. Others are men and women of good social standing, forced into uneasy alliances with the Triads. Others were exiles or outcasts with nowhere else to go. The Wansui community is home to many compelling PCs, and we hope some of them may inspire you to come up with ideas for how your character will fit into the Wansui milieu!

Sima Qian
[X] Carrd

Himawari Ogino
[X] Carrd
Himawari is a former courtesan. Born with strange crystalline horns and sold by her father into the willow world at a young age, she found herself passed around from brothel to brothel until she wound up in Wansui, where she was involved against her will in a game of deadly espionage between rival Triad gangs. Eventually she caught the eye of the virtuous minister Sima, who rescued her from the treacherous floating world by marrying her. Now the Lady of the Sima Household and Honoured Wife of Sima Qian, Himawari aids her husband in his mission to uplift the poor and disenfranchised in Wansui.
Miho Takao
[X] Carrd
Miho Takao is not so much a newcomer to the Wansui, but rather a case of delayed homecoming.

Ciah Faamau
[X] Carrd
Displaced from her home in Eorzea, Ciah is an enigma to most residents of Wansui. Seemingly affiliated with the Tian di Hui, she can be found drinking and brawling with any man who so much as looks at her funny. She can also be found on the outskirts hunting the local wildlife in her downtime.
Akasma Sydin
[X] Carrd
A thick Hannish accent immediately marks this Raen as a foreigner and that isn't the only thing setting her apart from the natives of Wansui. From the bone white scales that cover too much of her skin to the smell of herbs and chemicals always lingering upon this alchemist. There is certainly much to be curious about. She seems willing to lend a hand where healing, potion, or lotion is needed but everything has a price.
Ri'xia Na'ir
[X] Carrd
A feisty, red haired Xaela that's close to both Jonny Koban and Meng Mei. They are the owner of 鞭炮 (Biānpào), a bar that offers a taste of western alcohol and cigars.

Every step he takes is marked with the soft, melodic sound of his bells; a sound that can frighten his enemies yet calm the spirits of the sea. Having originally been hired to run Zheng Tianshou's naval blockade of Wansui, he has since entered into a more long-term partnership with the Tian Di Hui Triad to defend Wansui by sea. Sporting twelve ships in total, him and his crew spend most of their time within Wansui, waiting for the next threat to try and sail it self at them.
What is Wansui?
The Wansui community is an attempt at creating an immersive, lore-adjacent roleplaying environment inspired by the vibrant and dramatic history of late Imperial China. Within the FFXIV universe, the fanon town of Wansui is located in the semi-China-coded nation of Doma, allowing us to steep ourselves in the intricate customs of the mystical and dangerous Triad underworld while remaining lore adjacent.Our mission statement is to tell compelling, low-power stories that focus on normal characters' struggles to survive among the thieving, pimping, scheming underclasses of Doman society, and thrive in a world shrouded in the mystic ritualism of the Far East.We recommend checking out our lore document below for more in-depth info on how we depict the unique culture of Wansui and the Kwan Tei. Otherwise, check out some quick information further down this page.
Wansui - Doma's Vice City
Wansui [萬歲] is a town in the deep south of Yanxia, situated along the swampy banks of the Kwan Tei [軍地河], a tributary of the mighty One River.Officially, Wansui is governed by a Magistrate of the Doman government. However, the true authorities in this town are the Doman Triads. Wansui has a reputation for being a place of vice, known for its gambling dens, pillow houses, and flowersmoke dens. The people of Wansui are drawn from the drinking, scheming, drinking, pimping lower classes of Doma. They are drug addicts seeking a steady drip, disgraced courtesans exiled from reputable brothels, doctors and dentists who have lost their licenses, and all manner of people with similarly morbid stories.Wansui is known by some as the ‘Ul’dah of the Orient’ for its gaiety and stylishness, and by others as the ‘Whore of Othard’, where every sin imaginable is permissible. Wansui is a town where vice and virtue are bedfellows, ‘a city of contrasts: the rich are so wealthy they can afford to buy anything at any price; the poor so miserable they have to sell anything, property or person, at any price’.
Kwan Tei Prefecture
Wansui is one settlement among many in the Kwan Tei Prefecture, a subdivision of the Kingdom of Doma, located in the subtropical southwestern regions of the nation.Kwan Tei Prefecture is named for the Kwan Tei River, a tributary of the mighty One River, which flows through the region, and upon whose balmy banks the majority of its settlements are concentrated.The people of the Kwan Tei have a unique regional culture and dialect. They consider themselves the inheritors of so-called “true” ancient Yanxian culture, untouched by influence from Hingashi. They call themselves Kwan Tei Yan (Kwan Tei people) and refer to their language as Kwan Tei Wa (Kwan Tei language), or bun deih wa (the local language).
The Triads
The Kwan Tei region of Yanxia is a remote part of the Kingdom of Doma which, due to its distance from the capital, has traditionally been beyond the direct influence of the royal court. As the local saying goes, tin gou wong dai jyun: “Heaven is high, and King Rijin is far away.”As a result, various forms of criminality have been allowed to fester and flourish in this region, the most prominent, widely connected and sophisticated of which being the organizations known as "Sworn Brotherhoods" and "Benevolent Societies," also known as the Doman Triads.Different Triads are in constant contention over high-earning brothels, clubs, and hubs of drug production. Turf wars are constantly ongoing, and the slums of Wansui are a perpetual low-intensity battleground between rival gangs.
Locations in Wansui
Straddling the balmy, swampy banks of the Kwan Tei River, Wansui is divided into four main districts.1. The Bund
The beating heart of Wansui. The Bund is Wansui's main bazaar. A vibrant, thrumming district of casinos, lounges, restaurants, opera houses, temples, and other businesses both reputable and not. Every sin and every pleasure Wansui has to offer is concentrated in the Bund.2. The Slums
The Wansui of opulent pillowhouses, glitzy casinos and chic smoking lounges is but a veil of prosperity drawn over a mountain of rot. The majority of Wansui's residents are drug addicts, whores, and impoverished labourers. They live in a maze of narrow, stinking, congested lanes. The slums are a bleak rat's nest of alleyways where the vast majority of the where every tiny room holds a family of ten, and where rows of night pots line the streets.3. The Docks
A hub for the pirates and smugglers who distribute the Triads' product overseas. Known sardonically by the locals as the "Fragrant Wharf", this is a place of drunken brawls, where foreign sailors disappear into the smoke haze of the fetid bars and dreamflower lounges packed along the quay, never to be seen again...4. The Government Canton
In stark contrast to the slums, the 'Government Canton' is a gated neighbourhood characterized by clean, well-paved, gridded streets, and luxurious siheyuan mansions. Originally populated exclusively by officials of the Kwan Tei Prefectural Government and their families, the Government Canton is now also home to many of Wansui's wealthiest business owners, moneyed gentry, and high-ranking Triad members.
