==Concept==
According to the short animation series promoting VOCALOID CHINA, Qingxian is a fashionable high school student. Because of her elegant and mature outlook, she is extremely popular in school. Even though she seems to be a mysterious character, she actually has a slow reaction time due to her poor health. She dresses fashionably most of the time, yet her actions show great elegance and traditional beauty. Qingxian loves traditional Chinese literature and is capable of skillfully playing many traditional Chinese instruments. Even though she reacts slowly, she still tries her best to take care of the juniors and people around her. She also has a tendency to become randomly philosophical.http://www.vocaloidism.com/chinese-vocaloid-luo-tianyi-friends-revealed/
In 2017, according to Shanghai HENIAN's official website, Qingxian is listed as a Taurus. She is Yuezheng Ling's and Zhiyu Moke's senior in high school.http://www.thstars.com/vsingers/#moqingxian It was later revealed that her birthday is May 20.https://www.weibo.com/5147262758/Hk5ySgflg Her signature color is #FFFF00.https://vsinger.com/vsinger
===Etymology===
Her original name was "Chou", however, this was dropped because it was written in a Japanese naming style rather than Chinese.
Her surname, "Mò" (墨), means "black" or "ink" in Chinese. "Qīng" (清) means "clear", while "Xián" (弦) is a string of musical instruments. Her name is generally stylized as "Mo Qingxian" but "Mo Qing Xian" is also another official stylization.
On the official Vsinger character social media accounts, promotional material, and in the concerts, Qingxian is sometimes referred to as "Mo Jie" (墨姐; Mò Jiě) by the younger characters. This honorific is used when referring to an older female. "姐" and "姐姐" (Jiějiě) mean "older sister".
Qingxian's official signature was very stylistic and seemed be her first name written in combination of both of the romanization (pinyin) and Chinese as "Qing弦". For the first half of her given name, the first letter began with a large winding loop that made up the "Q", followed by a scrawling "ing", making up "Qing". "Xian" (弦) remained in Chinese and featured merged strokes to give it the appearance it had.
===Appearance===
HANS's Chou design was submitted to the first VOCALOID CHINA contest and was announced as a runner-up entry. However, it was noted that when the Chinese illustrator ideolo refined and redrew the VOCALOID CHINA cast, he drew no references from Chou as the entry was found to have plagiarized a piece of fanart featuring from .https://imgur.com/GwoiOxV Due to this, ideolo drew Mo Qingxian completely from scratch.
Located on Qingxian's neck in her debut design, there is a purple charm with a Devanagari letter "क" (ka) which represents the , the "Middle" position, the color "yellow", and the "Long Summer" season. This character’s Chinese equivalent is "宫" (Gōng), one of the 5 Traditional Chinese melody characters and corresponds to C (do).Sanskrit and logo
Qingxian's V4 illustration was drawn by TID and followed a more regal theme, likely in reference to her first original and demo song "Ace". The dress became longer in the back and split into two sections, the tails of the dress reaching her feet. On the back side of her left hip, there is a large flower that is the same type as the one found in her hair. The front of her dress has a cut down to her stomach and she wears a white slip underneath. The v-cut at the front of her dress is lined with flower petals. She received two black belts around her torso rather than one around her hips. The Devanagari was still located on her neck but became green instead of purple. Her gloves' tops became puffy and had flower petals at the opening. Her long socks were asymmetrical: the right sock covered her whole leg and has blue stripes running down, while the left sock was 3/4 up her thigh and had diamond designs at the top. Her heeled ankle boots have flowers lining the top and the wings were removed. In her hair, she has two yellow clips on her bangs rather than one.
