## Talent Information

### Portrayed by

JianHao Tan

**JianHao** is the overall main protagonist of the Titan Academy Series out of the three main protagonists. He is a student of Class T1-T5 in Titan Academy and was temporarily a student of Class T1-T6, alongside his sister, Nicole. After the heist, he is back at T1-T5 with Denise.

JianHao comes from a surprisingly wealthy background and is soon to be the future heir of his family’s unknown family business. However, his academic performance in school often leaves a lot to be desired. His lazy and procrastinating behavior often puts him at odds with his teachers and his own parents as well. Despite this, he is usually carefree and gets along with almost everyone in his class.

## Profile

### Appearance

JianHao appears to be slightly below average in height. His school attire is proper except for his hair, which often goes against the school's dress code because it is always dyed with a variety of colors, usually purple, white or blonde. His hair is slightly messy, but nowhere as near as Vincent's level of disorderly attire. He wears a black tank top underneath a short-sleeved white button-up shirt with a v-neck collar, black sweatpants with two white stripes on the sides, and stocky black boots.

As of date, he wears his new Titan Academy school uniform, including a dark blue long-sleeved blazer with white outlines around it, a gold button-up, the Titan Academy emblem and a rectangular name tag with his name on it, both in gold with a black background stamped and worn on the left chest and gold buttons on each side of the cuffs. He wears a white collared shirt with a dark blue and gold striped necktie on the collar underneath the blazer, black dress pants and his shoes from the previous outfit.

He used to wear a silver fleur-de-lis symbol pendant on the older uniform, a stylized lily or iris which typically has three petals attached at the base on a black string.

### Personality

JianHao is a savvy, overconfident and courageous but mischievous, mean, remorseless and rude teenager. However, he is friendly and loyal, which allows him to have many reliable friends throughout the school series.

Known for being rebellious and misbehaving in class, he usually gets into trouble, as his relationships with his teachers are largely negative. At the same time, he can be viewed as comedic by his peers. However, this troublesome behavior usually ends up with JianHao arguing with his teachers, making him the main target of discipline, particularly with strict teachers like Madam Soot Beng, Mr. Muthu Raja or Mrs. Regna. Overall, most of his teachers do not like his personality and behavior as a student, but JianHao doesn't really take this into consideration since he focuses more on fooling around with his friends, which is not a surprise that he is lazy and often tends to procrastinate on his homework.

Because of this, it is obvious that JianHao does not do well in school, which would be another reason why his teachers and his parents do not like him. He is very distracted and can be seen setting aside schoolwork to waste a lot of time playing video games or doing other irrelevant things to avoid doing his homework. This would probably be the reason why he strongly dislikes studying and schoolwork, which both heavily contribute to him failing his classes, but JianHao is usually carefree about this. Although he wants to do well in school, most of the time, he doesn't really show much determination to do so, but there is an exception in which JianHao wants to focus on his group project since he is aware he wouldn't be able to pass his exams. Nevertheless, JianHao ends up receiving failing scores on his exams, mostly 49.5 marks, which is an almost-passing but failing score.

JianHao does have some moments where he can appear to be foolish. He can be seen messing up certain well-known phrases ("there's plenty of sea in the fish", "a doctor a day keeps the apple away", and "the early fish catches the chips"), messing up with simple problems (thinking that 1 + 1 = 7), and resorting to bizarre ways to pass his exams like gambling with a toy lot machine. Though JianHao tries to find other ways to help complete certain tasks, most of the time this doesn't end in his favor, since he doesn't really know what he is doing as he lacks common sense. Because of this, JianHao's parents have very low expectations of him, as his mother happens to give him luxurious items if he passes his exams at least once, even if he gets by scoring one point above the passing grade.

As a result of his lack of work ethic in school, JianHao is not above trying to cheat his way through homework and exams. He often uses unconventional and unorthodox ways to help him pass in his schoolwork, usually buying his way out of group projects as well as sneaking his notes when taking the exams. Though most of the time he gets away with cheating without the teachers knowing his antics, this method is usually frowned upon by hardworking students, particularly his friend and crush, Denise. After Denise realizes that JianHao resorts to cheating his way through school, he instantly regrets his unethical decisions, but that doesn't stop him from bringing an entire map of notes while taking the exams while being able to get away from it at the same time.

Although cheating and his mischievous behavior lead to the great disapproval of JianHao's reputation, there are a few exceptions. In other words, JianHao is able to effectively help his friends and classmates through his quick thinking and unusual, but innovative methods under pressure. His intelligence can be seen by helping his classmates do well on the quizzes and exams through cheating, being able to quickly use problem-solving skills during classwork, and even getting himself along with some of his friends and classmates to get out of trouble and other sticky situations. Nevertheless, most students in Titan Academy are unable to get out of these types of situations, except with the help of JianHao's novel and creative thinking. JianHao is also very skilful in finding ways to cheat the system, most noticeably in remote learning. He created a loop of himself nodding to trick the teachers, while he really was sleeping through class.

Unlike JianHao's wild character, a defining trait of his social character is his largely one-sided crush on his classmate Denise, who returns the favor in various videos. JianHao becomes friends with Denise due to her kindness and high intelligence, but in some videos, JianHao is shown that he is only trying to get close to her to copy her homework. Nevertheless, Denise is nice enough to help JianHao with his schoolwork, although Vincent shares the exact same ideas from his best friend and tries to use her for his ferocious behavior while competing with JianHao, which greatly annoys Denise. However, unlike Vincent's overly abrasive and possessive behavior, JianHao is well known for having generosity towards her, as he is the most concerned about Denise's feelings and well-being, especially when she is ostracized by her more popular classmates and other schoolmates.

Socially, JianHao is a relatively easy-going person who gets along well with most of his classmates. While not part of any specific clique, he still has many friends who he hangs out with, notably Vincent, Kevin, and his sister Nicole. He has a great sense of humor and often likes to tell jokes and prank his friends, which makes him popular and well-liked by his peers. However, sometimes his overly playful attitude can get him into trouble. JianHao rarely gets angry, though he can be seen to get pushed too far sometimes.

A major source of humor in the school series is JianHao's unmatched unluckiness. In the most unfavorable situations, he is often used as a scapegoat or taken advantage of by his friends due to his overly nice personality. When it comes to doing group projects, he is always placed with either slackers or weird and unpopular classmates that are being irresponsible due to his teachers' negative opinions toward him. In exams, sometimes his cheating plans get thwarted by outside forces or that he usually winds up being unable to even finish his work due to a series of unfortunate events caused by fate itself.

Though he is lazy in school and is notorious for finding ways to cheat, JianHao is kind to others and cares about them deeply. He also shows incredible loyalty to his friends and family and also to some of his classmates, giving them his answers but taking the blame for cheating on the test. None of the teachers in the classroom acknowledge his kindness or his creativity, even though Miss Sherly pretended to. He was an underrated character in the classroom who teachers thought was undisciplined.

And yet, despite his bad marks in school, JianHao is very clever at coming up with plans to get himself out of predicaments. When Madam Soot Beng gave them detention, upon hearing that she was upset as she had not gotten tickets to Endgame, JianHao quickly deduced that all they had to do to get out of detention was spoil Endgame for her.

Being quite cunning, he is also able to hide his true intentions from others. In 13 Types of Among Us Players, no one suspected him of being the impostor since he was acting like a "good friend" to Kevin, who was scared and following him around and acts so naturally that 'detective' (Sierra/Purple) who is correct in deducting the other Impostor (Ren Yi Xiang/Black) does not suspect him at all. He is also strategic, using his friends' weaknesses against them. For example, in 13 Types of Among Us players, he was the first one to vote Hakim out since Hakim smiled at his phone since he finally got the position of an Impostor like he wanted.

JianHao is also highly imaginative. He has a tendency to daydream about very, very bizarre situations. Mr. Tan OS is a byproduct of his imagination out of his overall mixed feelings towards Mr. Muthu Raja (who, after the defeat of Mr. Tan O.S, took his Infinity Gauntlet to obliterate half of the class). He also once daydreamed of blowing up his exam papers and the class with it, in tandem with Nicole, for getting a 49.5 and failing. Also, as seen in 13 Types of Mobile Gamers, in the middle of Mobile Legends Bang Bang, he ends up daydreaming of dating and having a great time with his favorite female Hero, Odette, who a new player he met named 'BabyK77' has. New information afterwards caused a revision in his daydream, however. When he found out that Kevin is BabyK77, he revised the daydream into where he's actually dating Kevin who's cosplaying as Odette, and JianHao was definitely not having a good time in the revised daydream.
