PREFERRED GENDER PRONOUN: /waves hands

IC CHARACTERISTICS:
CURRENT CANON POINT: Near the end of Sha Hai aka Tomb of the Sea aka Sand Sea
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION:
He's average height and a little thinner than average, with big brown eyes and messy brown hair that gives the appearance of a school boy half of the time. There's a line of self-inflicted scars along his left arm, and a just healed scar on his neck that looks like it could have killed him. He talks a bit like a rich boy at first, but get him excited and he will fall into a scholarly ramble about everything that catches his eyes, and he has a very warm, soothing voice. All of this changes when he gets angry. His manner gets aggressive, his rich boy slouch turning to that of a thug, his voice gaining an edge, and he loses the soft smiles for something sharp and focused. As for clothing, he likes comfy sweaters and jeans, kick-ass boots, and rugged clothing that can take a beating from hiking or exploring. He is a heavy smoker, and he always is digging through books, and strangely, for some odd reason, bugs really do not like being near him. Weird.

For people who uses smell better than sight, he has a strange overlaying scent of old, dried bones and tomb dust with a unique metallic aftertaste, almost as if he's brushed past a meteorite of some sort or another. Bugs especially find him both interesting and also dangerous his blood tasting 'itchy' to even 'deadly' depending. Smarter bugs don't bother him at all.

DEMEANOR: He's a nerd and a rich boy. He will blink his eyes and smile and play at being 10000000000000000000% innocent even if his hands are in the cookie jar. When he gets caught up in a scholarly matter, he just starts talking and talking because it's exciting and he wants everyone to know. It's only when he gets quiet and his smile turns razor edged that someone should be careful around him. Well, more so than normal that is. See, he has the weirdest luck after all.

ABILITIES: TL;DR version is in his app but:
He is technically your average squishy human in a world full of near immortals, really weird possibly meteor-mutated creatures, ghosts, supernatural weirdness and a scattering of government-funded experimentations involving said space mutants. Almost all of his abilities are trained ones from his tomb-related skills to actual degrees, though he does have a couple unusual traits. His family is known for raising and training dogs into coherent packs that originally were used during raids against other people and/or monsters found in the tombs. Wu Xie himself knows some basic commands for them, but outside the fact the dogs recognize him as being family and allows him some control, he doesn't do much with them. He was also trained to mimic the thinking and puzzle-solving style of a person called Qi Yu. Who or what that person is and why Wu Xie was bent to follow their skillset and training no one is sure at this point, but it's felt that he has something to do with the Bronze Gate. For skills we have architecture knowledge, business running kinda, photography, tomb raiding, marksmanship, fighting, knife use, snake pheromones reading, qilin blood, puzzle solving, code making/cracking. It's all in the app, really.

MEDICAL INFORMATION: Hoooboy SO canon has so many things about Wu Xie's medical history that it isn't funny, and some of it is pretty strange. From the get-go, he is you average human stock. Nothing too exciting or special - he is about 5'11", weighing about 140lbs, though his weight does drop down to 110 when he feels he is too fat to fit into small spaces or to use a special tool that would break under his normal weight. He has a number of old fractures that healed remarkably well, especially in his back, legs, and arms. He has a number of knife and gun wounds, most have healed to near invisibility save for the 17 scars on his left arm and the one on his neck, but they are still pretty fresh looking. He also has a fairly high level of endurance and can go on and on and on until he will admit that yeah, he might actually not be feeling the best right before he passes out from blood loss, pain, or heavy damage.

Now for the weird specific canon stuff:
Qilin Blood Clot - during his first big adventure, he came across a piece of ancient medicine called this. Due to corpse poisoning and other things that were happening at that time, Zhang Qiling took the piece of medicine off of an undead corpse and fed it to him. The medicine cured him of the poisoning and also has a few other benefits; it also is actively lodged inside of his body and not dissolving, thus causing a bit of decay in his lungs while protecting him from some of worse nasty stuff he has come across. So it allows him to age slower (ten years of so), resistant to corpse poisons, resistant to tomb diseases, resistant to bugs (he still gets bit but they die soon after), resistant to zombie attacks/diseases. His blood can act like Zhang Blood Lite (drives away corpse bugs, cures corpse poison) but the effect is fading after all the stuff he's thrown himself into.
Snake Venom usage - Under most circumstances, black-hair snake venom is a killer of a poison, though that always depends on the person and their access to antivenoms but it takes a person with a certain genetic quirk to "see" the memories stored within the venom/snakes. Wu Xie is one of them. The trick of the venom is that it not only "shares" the vision, but it forces the person with that right genetic quirk to live what the black-hair snake had seen/lived/experienced, and also allows the person to force the black-hair snake to experience/see/live their lives. It also is a highly addictive drug, and Wu Xie spent a lot of several years drowning himself in the venom visions and force rewriting the visions. He also had surgery so that the venom was directly injected into his smell organ so that is burnt out. Mostly.

CABIN INFORMATION: Level 7 cabin 13 | The outside door looks like very old fashioned sliding doors with the paper windows but on the narrower side of things. Past the doors his room looks like a jumble sale and antiques shop and living space all combined into one messy arrangement ( 1 & 2 ) and his bed is actually a pretty cool boat turned couch chair hanging from the ceiling.

OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS: He's actually pretty easy going on a number of things but he Has Opinions That Must Be Respected and he Will Fight To The Death over them: so that includes immortality, how one treats objects of antique value, the care of dogs, his BFFs, one does not use the names of his BFFs in vain, and so on.

IC PERMISSIONS:
MENTAL: So he is a squishy human so he is easy to fall under all sorts of mind tricks to, especially when it comes to hallucinations and the like. But he is also pretty good at making his thoughts match whatever he is speaking about so it takes a bit of prodding to get past that defense and under it, well, he has canonically absorbed the "memories/thoughts" of literally thousands of black-hair snakes, which is one of the many really weird creatures that are part of the whole Bronze Gate/Jade Meteor/Kingdom of the Snake Queen. So going deep without content to hang onto will get a lot of very very weird memories. So if your character is poking around and wants to hit one of the "snake memories" let me know! Otherwise, he shakes off mind control rather fast (again they say it's because of all the memory problems he is good at knowing his own mind better than someone trying to control it) and he is always twisting things in his head until he finds a weakness.

MIMICRY: Sure! There's two already able to do so (same actor lol) and he has had like six or seven people looking like him at a time in his world (aand also a bunch more over the years some of which were hunted and their heads put on display which is very creepy to him).

VIOLENCE: Yes, he is a good fighter, having been trained by several good fighters in canon. So long as it's planned we can go at it.

MAGIC: He's a squish human with no magic defenses. Save that luck of his that is.

DEBATE: He's actually considered extremely tricky and smart and able to puzzle long lost mysteries from a couple clues. So yes, let's see how it goes.

OTHER / NOTES: I can't think of anything right now.
