On May 17, 2024, Kuro Games revealed the first character for version 1.1, namely Jinhsi. She is the Jinzhou Magistrate and one of the important figures in the main storyline.

Here's the official description of Jinshi on her Drip Market:

"Being the Magistrate of Jinzhou, Jinhsi bears her noble and weighty share of duties. Through repeated ages, the Lament has preyed upon mankind's vulnerable hope. Yet, grasping the nettle, she strives with all her might to forge a path toward tomorrow."

Changli

Kuro Games revealed Changli as the other new playable character in version 1.1 on May 18, 2024. Unfortunately, not much is known about her besides that she is Jinhsi's mentor and counselor.

Changli's official description on her official Drip Market states:

"Counselor to the Jinzhou Magistrate, Changli excels at leveraging human nature to corner her enemies into traps. Being the mentor to Jinhsi, she is persuasive and patient. She entertains an unwavering aspiration, holding her ground in the endless game against time and chaos."

Changli is described as persuasive and patient. She also excels at leveraging human nature to trap her enemies, so it's no wonder that she is the counselor to the Jinzhou Magistrate.
