Overview
Jiuyuan, also referred to as "Miss Jiuyuan", is a confirmed S-rank playable character in Neverness to Everness. She is described as the best driver in the squad who will deliver the team to any hot spot unharmed. She handles urgent Anomaly deliveries and transports Espers across Hethereau. Her specific element and weapon type have not yet been officially detailed.
Appearance
Jiuyuan has a glamorous character design that sets her apart from the more combat-focused aesthetics of other characters. Her most distinctive accessory is an impressive wide-brimmed hat that adds to her sophisticated presentation. She appears in promotional art wearing a coat with blue trim. Her overall look combines elegance with practicality, reflecting someone who maintains her style even while performing high-speed deliveries through dangerous territory.
Personality
Jiuyuan is known for staying cool under pressure. In a line of work that involves navigating Hethereau's streets at high speed while carrying Anomaly-related cargo and transporting Espers, composure is not just a personality trait but a survival skill. She approaches urgent situations with a calm professionalism that inspires confidence in those who rely on her services.
Her role as a driver places her at the intersection of multiple factions and operations within Hethereau. She interacts with various characters and organizations as part of her delivery and transport work, giving her a broad perspective on the city's power dynamics and Anomaly situation. She maintains professional discretion about what she observes during her routes.
Abilities and Combat Kit
Jiuyuan's specific element, weapon type, and full ability kit have not been officially revealed. Given her role as a driver who handles Anomaly deliveries and Esper transport, her combat abilities may incorporate vehicle-based mechanics or speed-focused techniques that mirror her driving skills. The vehicle system in Neverness to Everness features various drivable vehicles including cars and motorcycles, and Jiuyuan's expertise in this area may translate into unique combat or traversal abilities.
Gameplay Integration
Jiuyuan is tied to the game's driving mechanics, giving players rides during missions and adding a unique flavor to open-world exploration. According to developer descriptions, "players can be lucky and hitch a ride with Miss Jiuyuan and experience her driving skills during urgent deliveries." This suggests that Jiuyuan's gameplay extends beyond standard combat to include interactive driving sequences where players can accompany her on delivery missions.
Neverness to Everness features a robust vehicle system that includes cars, motorcycles, and other drivable vehicles throughout Hethereau. Jiuyuan's identity as the squad's best driver directly ties her to this gameplay system. She may have unique interactions with vehicles, such as enhanced handling, special vehicle abilities, or access to a signature vehicle.
Esper Cycle Role
Jiuyuan's element has not been confirmed. Once her Esper Cycle attribute is revealed, her team-building synergies and duo reaction capabilities will become clear.
Lore and Background
Jiuyuan operates as a delivery driver and transport specialist in Hethereau, handling two key functions: urgent Anomaly deliveries (transporting Anomaly-related materials, equipment, or information under time pressure) and Esper transportation (getting team members to hot spots quickly and safely). The urgency of these duties suggests the cargo and passengers are either dangerous, time-sensitive, or both, requiring a driver with exceptional skill and nerve.
Her work connects her to the city's Anomaly response infrastructure. Organizations like the Bureau of Anomaly Control and facilities like the Eibon Antique Shop likely rely on drivers like Jiuyuan to move critical materials and personnel when conventional logistics are too slow or too exposed.
Jiuyuan was first revealed in the NTE trailer, and her name was confirmed during a developer interview video. Her character introduction highlighted her driving abilities and her importance to the squad's operational mobility.
