Character Name: Wen Ning (Wen Qionglin)
Character Journal: [personal profile] verynormalturnipseller
Status: Warden
Pairing Information: Wen Ning has graduated one inmate, helping his confidence some, but the first impression he gives most people is still somewhere between nervous and harmless. He's very gentle and can be far too indirect, so a very willful inmate may find it much too easy to run roughshod over him. He's not very good at laying down the law on an everyday basis; his occasional snaps of anger are cold and precise and take a lot to bring out. He's a good listener and a natural fusser. His inmate will be cheerfully looked in on all the time and brought a lot of snacks. His instinct when things are wrong is always to try to fix them as practically as he can, a tendency which he definitely means as an expression of fondness, but can come across as pretty meddlesome. He thinks people should be busy! And is a dreadful morning person. He is not very good at reading people (attempts at manipulation work much more often than not) and has an off-kilter sense of both humor and his place in the world. He's from a very magical universe and is an undead monster driven around by the ghost of a teenager with crippling anxiety. This does make him a physical match for the vast majority of inmates, in case of violence, at the cost of creeping people the hell out. He's a magical healer and trained doctor (for an ancient fantastical world value of "trained" and "doctor"), which definitely informs his approach to people.

tl;dr: Wen Ning is a shy weirdo and a mother hen who is pretty easy to mess with, but does possess an iron core and a powerful drive to help. He will bring you treats and take a lot of shit. And while he's got the patience of the dead, don't forget the ability to rip out spines of the dead. It does come up sometimes.
