personality

In life, Wen Ning is shy, nervous, and suffers from a stutter. After his death, he becomes an extremely strong fierce corpse precisely due to his tendency to hold in his negative emotions. Over time, he learns to stand up for those he cares about, even at the cost of breaking a promise, and to follow his own path. Unlike many prominent members of the Qishan Wen Clan, Wen Ning has a strong sense of honor, kindness, and loyalty. He is profoundly grateful to Wei Wuxian for encouraging his archery skills, and as a result, he risks his life to save Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng after the fall of Lotus Pier. He willingly sacrifices himself to ensure the safety of not only his family and friends, but even those who hate him. He seems to be protective of children, as he fights Nie Mingjue's strong fierce corpse to save Jin Ling, whom Nie Mingjue had originally targeted. Wen Ning remains sensitive to the bloodshed he carries out as a fierce corpse. Once Wei Wuxian loses control, he expresses guilt and sorrow for those he killed. Despite his inability to cry anymore, he shows deep emotions when his murdered family come to his aid during the Second Siege of the Burial Mounds.
