Jia Xin Kao

The jewel of the Kao crown, Jia Xin lives like a princess in the Garden City. Every whim, need, and desire is catered for – without her ever having to ask. From grand palatial residences to jetsetting tours of East Asia, she’s accustomed to living like literal royalty, both in astronomical wealth and widespread reverence wherever she goes. As a member of the Kao family she has received an impeccable education, but of course she has never had to work a day in her life – at least not in the ordinary sense. It’s truly debatable whether she has any concept of what an ordinary life would be like.

Cult Following

At 26 Jia Xin has a carefully curated online presence from which she enjoys cult celebrity status, especially within Singapore and Malaysia. Her zealous online following currently tops over 7m, mostly centred within Dominances III and IV, and this number does not include the channel dedicated just to her foxes (which has its own management team to take care of it). She wields her influence as a weapon with utmost finesse, both to promote the prestige of her family, and when needed to decimate their enemies.

Passions

Jia Xin has a renowned love of animals, particularly exotics, and is known for generous donations to such charities and sanctuaries. She is also the foremost patron of Singapore Zoo. Privately she owns various animals, including rare reptiles, but her favourite acquisitions are her wild white foxes, stemming from a love kindled in her childhood. She also has two tame silver foxes which came from Siberia, the remnants of experiments first conducted in the sixties and which aimed to accelerate the generational changes of domestication. They are her pride and joy, named Yue (moon) and Junjie (handsome).

She has a secondary passion for collecting martial weaponry, though unlike her big brother, it’s just for show. She attended all Zixin’s competitions growing up, but it was never a world she was allowed to join. Her eye is pulled towards beauty first, but has an interest in anything with history.
