CHARACTER FAMILY 4

Wei Wuxian's bringing along Zenobius the Unwaking, so we have +1 sleeping elder for our family group! I personally read the "fox whisperer" portion and started laughing, since Wei Wuxian is afraid of dogs/canines and foxes, well, still look very canine, so: fellow Family #4 members, what are thoughts on them calling themselves a clan of fox whisperers? Only to end up in town and there being whole issues with foxes and they all get to go "..." at the serendipity. Surely it's that!

He'll be regularly sneaking out and/or having Lan Wangji sneak in PROBABLY, ask Ruxi, mostly because they're still attached at the hip and hey, maybe fox whisperers are in demand for consultation, or a clan of them known to have some of the fox's beguiling nature (if everyone's up for being such a cover story, of course).

ANCESTRAL CURSE PLANS?

His curse deals with an ancestor who decided to torture the people he was in power over due to his own dissatisfaction, so dealing with it means Wei Wuxian will... do what he would do anyway, which is leap in to help with all the local issues. Help the people not in power, who are subjugated and tormented unfairly! He's unlikely to see progression of his ancestral curse for that reason, but it means I adore all threads dealing with:

- him shouting and freezing up in fear dealing with fox shenanigans
- him investigating and pursuing the issues of human sacrifice
- and human trafficking for the undead lords
- likewise investigating any Problems arising in the village(s) as they come up, only now he has extra license to go "I have to, look at this ancestral curse, right?"

GENERAL PLANS:

Truly, see the above in ancestral curse plotting for once they're in the area. He's also here to help people with their curses if it's something that requires multiple parties to help overall accomplish, or if listening out for details is relevant.

He's background looking into a way to help Zenobius wake up, which isn't presently going to be fruitful (he may find a means without possessing the means, or you know, at this point more mirror muckery is called for).

Wei Wuxian is! A necromancer, he can resurrect the dead but hasn't tried this since learning the means of it in Taravast, and is deeply afraid of dogs. If any of that sounds useful to what your character(s) are up to, let me know!

When leaving the lighthouse he can try controlling undead mermaids to help run interference with the live mermaids, but he can't handle too many over a period of time, so setting up bait bombs before leaving and tossing those out along the way and before, away from where they're boating out, might be his suggestion. Especially as one of the guys extra hated for his mermaid meal depriving ways!

On ship heading toward the next location, he'll help where he can while also tending to Zenobius and dragging in anyone else willing to tend to a comatose patient, thank you ahead of time. He's a strong swimmer, so if anyone wants to go overboard during the storm, he can reach them and be hauled back to ship with whatever rope he tied around himself, should that be of interest to anyone!
