Ning D'Ahn

Ning D'Ahn was a monk of the Way of Enlightenment, the Abbot of U'Chan Gompa, and the seventh High Lord of Oceans of Tabot around .
==History==
Ning D'Ahn was chosen to be the seventh High Lama by his predecessor at the tender age of eight, circa . As was now custom, the former High Lama left the boy to his new life and wandered away into the mountains.
Ning's rule was a difficult one, suffering from the revolt of Baron Phen Do and the protests of the southern monasteries, who complained strenuously about the High Lord's tithings and adopted radical stances, thus paralyzing the yig-tsang (monk council) and presaging a separatist movement. The High Lord filled the Lon Chen (chief ministers) with trusted northern monks, which only alienated the southerners further.
By 2607, he had twice been the target of assassination, both times by a ninja disguised as a lama. These left Ning D'Ahn highly paranoid. Thus, Ning was protected by his fanatical personal guards, the No-Haree.
==Description==
At the age of 64, Ning was tall and slender and shaved his head. He wore robes stitched with gold and silver and adorned with jewels. He was never seen without the magical Staff of Oceans, the symbol of power of the High Lord and carried whenever seen in public.
==Activities==
Twice a year, he appeared to the common people while presiding at two outdoor festivals: the Wona Chu'ing in the middle of winter, and the Dui'yu, a harvest celebration.
