I have no mercy. Though perhaps you can stand your ground alone.
"If you awake to a knife at your throat, if monsters dig their claws into you, if death comes knocking at your door... Call out my name.
1 He Eats Snow
Some eagle-eyed players discovered that fact in Xiao's in-game voice lines where he says "once the snow is thick enough, we can eat it." Knowing Xiao's stern personality, it's not a joke.
1 Xiao Loves Zhongli

Secretly has feelings for the traveler, but he refuses to admit it. Xiao thinks feelings like these are a waste of time and only bring pain; since he's been through much and the ultimate emo, he's even more emotionally constipated than the normal person.
Canon. Guizhong and Zhongli have known each other before the Archon War — the two are both gods, Guizhong the God of Dust, and Zhongli the God of Contracts.

Venti struggles with his alcohol addiction, whilst Xiao still suffers from PTSD.
Xiao suffers from his war-filled past. He and the now-deceased other Yakshas answered Zhongli's call for battle during the Archon War. However, fighting with the remains of fallen gods eventually accumulated enough “karma debt” to drive them mad. Xiao now bears the title of the last surviving Yaksha.
Even though they are connected to different regions, Venti and Xiao share a very sweet connection. Xiao almost died one night due to his negative karma but was saved by the sound of Venti playing his flute.
