"Being a witch has given me more freedom than being your typical sage would have ever provided me. Besides...freedom and creativity go hand and hand." - Jingxuan Lee
Prior to becoming a part of the Magical Underworld (not to be confused with The Underworld, Realm of Demons), Jingxuan was a member of a small guild in his homeland of China. Ever since he was a child, Jingxuan was always curious about magic but hated how most sages limited their magical prowess to the confines of the law. Of course, he didn't perceive himself to be a "bad" person with the intentions of using his magic he learned properly. During his junior year in high school, Jingxuan, along with four other young Chinese sages, would form a temporary guild where they would be sent on various missions. Jingxuan didn't care for his allies but got along in order to further his understanding of magic and test various theories during his missions. However, one day during a battle against a male witch who had broken some sort of unknown law in China, Jingxuan and his teammates battled the powerful witch. The witch managed to subdue Jingxuan's allies, but Jingxuan managed to defeat the witch despite their power difference by utilizing his intellect. Once the elder sages came to arrest the witch, the witch whispered a spell that allowed Jingxuan to see his thoughts and learn the truth behind the reason for his capture. The so-called "witch" was not some individual who became corrupted by their own magic. Instead, they merely decided to learn more taboo magic that his allies didn't approve of but never had ill intentions with said magic. Desiring to only become more familiar with the very arts he loved, this caused great anger within Jingxuan. This caused him to not only leave his squad but his school in China as well. Jingxuan would finish out the remainder of his education in Hong Kong but no longer partake in guild activities and solely focus on gaining knowledge involving magic.
During his college days in Hong Kong, Jingxuan mainly focused on his magical studies, education, and fitness. While surfing the net, Jingxuan unintentionally came across a forum for people who speak out against the limitations of magical usage from various countries. Going deeper, Jingxuan would join the forum before receiving an invite to meet a group of sages in a secret location. Intrigued by meeting sages who share similar ideologies to him, but knowing that people aren't always what they appear to be, Jingxuan made sure to have a backup plan ready. Upon arriving at the secret location, which was a cave within Taiwan, everything seems to be normal at first. Then all of a sudden, the group of sages is surrounded by Xavian and his forces. A battle erupts between the two groups as Jingxuan is forced to combine his smarts with his orthodox earth magic in order to aid his fellow sages. They are then rescued by Mei-hui, a wanted witch who uses her magic to distract Xavian and his forces. Jingxuan and the others had managed to escape from being captured, but not before receiving the brand as witches. While never his intention, Jingxuan did not care how society viewed those who simply wanted to further their knowledge on magic, regardless of if learning about certain magic was deemed "taboo." Jingxuan would then embrace the label of being a witch as he began operating in the Magical Underworld. In particular, he created a powerful magical energy drink named "Power Hazard," increasing one's magical potential upon drinking. Of course, Jingxuan had his own code of ethics that only witches who didn't act like savages were the ones he would associate with and do business with. Despite being labeled a witch, Jingxuan doesn't allow such a dehumanizing title to dictate his values. Instead, he views it as a blessing in disguise. For now, he can fully invest himself in expanding his magical knowledge without the restriction of so-called morally superior sages.
1. Like a handful of my FORBIDDEN characters (such as Cecelia, Meredith, Gerasim, Bass, Liliana, and Caspian), Jingxuan was also originally an AI art adoptable that I transformed into a FORBIDDEN character. Jingxuan also received a minor change from his AI design to his official/hand-drawn artwork.
2. Jingxuan possesses one of the highest IQs in the Earth 135 universe.
3. I originally intended to make Jingxuan a European, but I felt I had too many of those. Thus, I decided to make Jingxuan Asian and from China. The name "Jingxuan" itself was chosen after I decided I wanted him to be Chinese.
4. Jingxuan was drawn by arist Anne Luc, who also designed fellow Chinese characters Jia Xiaoyu & Shao Ziya (who is part Russian).
5. Despite being deemed a "witch," like many of his associates, Jingxuan didn't fall prey to his own powers. The reason he is deemed a "witch" is due to him performing an immoral act of obtaining knowledge that is viewed as taboo by the authorities of magic.
6. While proficient in magic. Jingxuan is skilled in the fighting style of Wushu.
