CHARACTER & CANON: Lan Wangji | The Untamed

THEIR ONE-SENTENCE ELEVATOR PITCH: silent killer monk meets righteous indignation, this man should wear white to carnage.

THE SAME PITCH, BUT IT'S AN ENTHUSIASTIC FRIEND HOOKING THEM WITH A JOB/BLIND DATE: 'Professional, fast, discounted murder, no arms spared, no VAT. First assassination's on the house.'

HOW DOES YOUR CHARACTER RUIN FAMILY DINNER? implies thinking for yourself isn't all that bad, sparks ensue.

THEIR TV TROPE: Strong Silent Type.

WHAT CAN YOUR CHARACTER BRING TO THE TABLE? have we mentioned he kills things really good? For actual positives, he's a topnotch exorcist and, while prone to an annoyingly and sometimes rigidly upstanding moral behaviour, will listen people out. He's a good confidant! ............mostly by sitting there, but, really. Look at your options in this group.

WHAT ARE THEY UP TO? I'm carrying out home renovations irl, so I've been keeping him mostly helping other folks out. He's aboard the commandeered sunken & summoned pirate ship, the Red Rooster, and I'm thinking of having him be in touch with someone to try to gain an actual captain on board — or someone a little more navigationally prone. He's otherwise just going to check on his people for a while, and try to parse through his experience in the Stranding — it's too philosophically close to a death realm for his taste.

CR/SCENARIOS YOU WANT:

■ he's been slightly destabilised by the amount of death exposure he and the group have had, so anyone willing to exorcise or go through ablutions with him would be fab

■ generally, he's more attuned to the trauma everyone has been experiencing lately, so while he's not the warmest individual, he has experience in appeasement — typically of the dead — and might try

■ folks to snoop snoop around the tongue artefact with, once that becomes public info, because what the hell

■ someone with whom to brainstorm the mystery of the Stranding
