CHARACTER NAME: Lan Wangji (courtesy name - goes under the network name [Bad username or site: wangji @ lan]). Also known intermittently as Lan Zhan (birth name - no one uses this currently outside of Wei Wuxian) and Hanguang-Jun (title - sometimes tossed around). CHARACTER JOURNAL:wangxian IC OCCUPATION: Gallery assistant, online art teacher. SKILLS/EXPERTISE: He's a gentleman-scholar from the early to mid-Han Dynasty. He is well-versed in the Six Arts (archery, calligraphy, horsemanship/charioteering, general philosophy/governing of his time period, music, and mathematics). He's also arguably very well acquainted with the Four Arts (painting and Go-playing the only ones that don't overlap). Excellent swordsman. Very capable martial artist (though, he would prefer not utilize hand-to-hand combat). Quick learner. Considered one of the brightest of his generation. Very physically honed overall (unusual strength - particularly arm strength -, heightened/trained reflexes/agility/awareness). Really hard to piss off?
ANYWAY, tl;dr: he's a great Watson to Wei Wuxian's Sherlock Holmes. They ground each other. He's the more practical, more serious, and less social one of the pair.
Also, because I'm dead inside, I forgot the most important thing: his power is Veracity (Truth Compulsion). He's capable of compelling others to speak the truth or muting them if they fail to. So, he's your human truth serum.
AREA(S) OF INTEREST: Both Information and Outreach/Relief interest him in equal measure. Canonically, he's known for being unusual among cultivators for taking up any job that requires that sort of expertise (as most are concerned with prestige and the pay).
