so this is her in-game backstory

her codex groups (underrated source of lore).

Teleporters: because her ultimate causes her to end up in the middle of the enemy formation

Easterners, Assassins, Who Am I? : lore-related

Girl power: self-explanatory

her backstory isnt linked to anyone else's tho.

she actually appears in many other games/films/theatre so she's prob the most well-known character in this entire game

her character's already quite interesting and badass, but the best thing is, like a few others in the magic rush-verse (eg Karas the Tengu), she's based off an actual figure from folk tales

wiki intro for Diaochan (dont ask me to read the actual folk tales lol)

they were quite accurate with her backstory, but its cool that they rebranded her as an assassination artist. Femme fatale to actually fatal - she's not a bad hero too, check out my edit and see how amazing her design, skillset and voicelines are. they took the "killing" part seriously ;D

in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, her story ends at Dong Zhuo's death, but in opera/storyteling versions, she's most often executed by one of the officials (which i think is unfair cause those men were the ones dumb enough to fall for her thinly-disguised 'trap' + she was literally doing everyone a service by killing a tyrant ) but oh well (the trap in question was her basically pretending to attempt suicide to "prove her love" to them both -_-)

this could've made for an interesting design but all games featuring her have the same pink petals/flower aesthetic. not complaining tho.

literally just go and read her wiki. it really isnt long and she's quite interesting, there's a lot i couldnt cover here :)

isnt she just really cool ✨
