Ian Nahinu

Ian Nahinu is an agent written by Pretzel. He is in the Department of Mary Sues, and is partnered with Amelia Keaton.

History
Ian Jonathon Nahinu was recruited by the PPC fresh out of college, and is still finding his feet in the business of killing 'Sues and policing the various fandoms. Lee is his first official partner, and Ian's doing his best to keep up with her. He's an only child, but still writes back to his mom and dad when he has the time; they think he's off doing translation work for some big company in Europe, given his degree in Linguistics. He hasn't told them otherwise, preferring them not to think him crazy should he tell them what he really does.

Personality
Ian is quite laid back when compared to Lee, and tends to be more at home with large crowds. He's quick on his feet when it comes to restraining Lee when she gets too annoyed with something. He's still getting used to the fact that magic really does exist and that he's now working for a bunch of sentient Flowers. He is often caught off guard by some of Lee's habits, but will more often than not ignore them if they're not hazardous to either of them or to the outcome of a mission. He is protective of Lee, but also is trying to get her to be a bit more social, which is taking some doing.

Appearance
He kind of resembles Jason Momoa/Ronon Dex from Stargate Atlantis, in that he is of Native Samoan stock, is tall, and wears his hair in dreadlocks that have beads decorating them. He normally keeps them tied back with a leather tie for missions, but will let the dreads hang free when he's bumming around HQ. His resemblance to Ronon/Jason means that he is in danger of getting glomped by agents with Ronon as their registered LO. Lee finds this very funny, but is in fact quite protective of her partner, and will ward off anyone who makes him too uncomfortable. He has brown eyes and is around 6'3". He has a small koi fish tattooed on his upper back, in between his shoulderblades. He occasionally wears a head scarf, and is well aware that it makes him look like a pirate, but could care less.

Other
One of Ian's favorite pastimes is cross-stitching, of all things, and he's quite good at it. His maternal grandmother got him started doing it when he was young, and he's found that over the years it's been a great stress reliever. Lee finds it highly amusing to see her partner doing such delicate work when they have down time, but respects his wishes and doesn't spread the word of his unusual habit around HQ. He keeps a half-finished project in his pack to work on when he and Lee have to wait around on missions for the plot to get going. It's an intricate piece, so he's in little danger of finishing it on one mission alone.
