He spent his youth witnessing the fall of the Han Empire. During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, his family was slain by the Yellow Turbans. He spent his days as a wandering vagabond for a while, servicing in any campaign against the Yellow Turbans in revenge for the slaughtering of his clan. After the fall of the Yellow Turbans, he met the warrior Lu Bu. Lu Bu and Xu Jin became comrades in arms, and were recognized for their talent.

With Lu Bu's might and Xu Jin's intelligence, Dong Zhou was looking like an unstoppable force.

After the death of his family, he has adopted a more macabre sense of fashion and personality, dressing in all black robes with a gloomy and sullen way of interacting with his peers.
