thank you for tagging me @mercedesdecorazon !! coco is wonderful and i hope to rescue her from the villa soon 🤧

but anyways! challenge accepted! (also i desperately need to decompress)

full name: lanfei tsai

nickname(s): lan (main), fei fei (younger brother), lany (suresh)

hometown: london, england

age: 25

occupation: actress for film and television

sexuality: bisexual

preferred pronouns: she / they

any languages?: mandarin, cantonese, french, italian

any hidden talents?: “i can tie a cherry stem into a knot with my tongue”

ideal outfit: lan prefers to present masculine. so oftentimes you will see them wearing loose button down shirts with pants and boots. they think their forearms are one of the best parts of themselves, so the sleeves are rolled up almost always. they like the gleam of satin shirts and also turtlenecks. they always dress up regardless of casuality (yes, she is one of those people).

how did they meet suresh?:

a mutual friend.

aka. their lawyer.

lan went to a party their lawyer invited them to. she didn’t really wanna be there but stuck with it anyways. while chilling in a corner, they were approached by suresh who recognized them from a tv show they starred in as a teen, black daisies. they talked for some before suresh asked her out on a date. it’s been a while so she shrugged and said, “why not?”

mc & their face claim:

lan’s current mood in the villa:

beach hut confession:

“i don’t know why i’m here.” they purse their lips. “literally nothing is going my way. being coupled up with suresh is my personal hell! i want him out of my life. but he keeps persisting and i feel like i need to throw something!” she sighs and leans forward a bit. “it’s only been five days but i am exhausted beyond belief. everyone keeps asking for my opinion on everything! it’s not up to me to dictate what you do!“ they run a hand through their hair. “i’m so tired. i need to be left alone.” their eyes flick around for a second before they lean back into the chair. “this whole thing was a mistake. (buzzed out name), this is your fault. i have work anyways. filming and stuff.”

INTRODUCING...LAN !!!

full name: lanfei tsai

preferred name: lan

age: 25

pronouns: she / they

sexual orientation: bisexual

ethnicity: east asian, taiwanese

hometown: london (south london specifically)

current occupation: actress

height: 1.73 m / 5 feet 9 inches

personality: lan is often defined by her friends and family as a workaholic, blunt, and sometimes mean spirited. they carry themselves with intense nihilism, no doubt partially caused by the industry they currently work in. lan is often seen as the realist among her friends, saying things without any sort of sugar coating. their nihilism creates for caution and intense distrust in individuals. things are too good to be true most of the time so they hold onto the reality that things will get worse. lan also works a lot, mostly because she is afraid of not having enough money for her basic necessities. streaming and social media have really prevented her from making acting her only source of income so she must take on multiple jobs, such as being a part time influencer and an ambassador for multiple beauty brands. lan has an avoidant attachment style meaning they keep people at an arm’s length. it is very hard to get to know them and takes a lot of work. this explains their deep distrust in most people. if you manage to go beneath the exterior, then you will find that lan is very kind and understanding. she’s always there when you need her and she’ll throw everything out the window for you. despite her clear annoyance with, well, everything, lan is actually a very patient person. they don’t get angry or irritated. their irritation and annoyance is usually out of fun. though their initial impression of being intimidating and mean tends to trump everything in regards for people’s perception of her. and sometimes, they let that initial impression ruin their interaction with lan.

hobbies: cosplay, fashion design, art

family: father (in contact), younger brother (in contact)

bio: lan was raised by a single father in south london with her younger brother. she was known to be a tomboy and enjoyed experimenting with her gender expression at a young age. when they were about ten, they got scouted by a talent scout for a chinese company. lan was offered an opportunity to become a c-pop idol. they decided to take the chance if they could help their father out with the bills. however, after about three months, lan quit. lan hated the restriction they felt under the company’s thumb and how the company wanted to push a certain image of femininity onto them. during secondary school, lan discovered a love for acting and started in school plays and community theater. eventually, they decided to branch out into commercials before landing a main role in a teen drama called black daisies. at the age of 16, lan received critical acclaim for their performance and started reaching out for more projects including blockbuster movies, indie movies, sitcoms, west end theater productions, and soap operas. she decided to attend college while working as an actress and received her degree. she also completed her post-graduate studies as well and thus received her masters.

education: university of the arts london

ba - film and television

ma - film

quirks

lan is a polyglot. she can speak english, mandarin (albeit how taiwanese people speak it which makes her scrutinized among “proper” mandarin speakers), cantonese, french, and italian.

lan took a few courses in fashion design and uses it mostly for their cosplay hobby.

lan enjoys cosplaying male characters and has a different social media account for their cosplays. some of the popular ones have been: baizhu and zhongli from genshin impact, tengen uzui from demon slayer, kurapika from hxh, and kieran valentine from monster high.

you can find lan on instagram at tsailan. their cosplay account is tsaiplay.

lan is also on tik tok at lanlanfei and it’s a mix of regular tik tok videos and their cosplays.

lan prefers to present masculine. they don’t wear swim suits often.
