"Before the Dragon came knocking my idea of chaos was a messy apartment." Mei reminiscing about her old life.
Before joining the Dragon, Mei lived a normal, boring, ordered life. However, she soon learned of the Secret World & felt it was her duty to join the war effort and the Dragon to protect her family and homeland Beijing.
Mei was featured in the very first CGI trailer for The Secret World, The Firestarter, where she is attacked by a creature after making a refreshing strawberry drink.
Players have further interaction with her during the Tokyo Flashback vision, where she, along with her lover & Alex McCall, fought together to stop something called the filth from destroying Tokyo.
