呉承恩

The Register for Journey to the West. She shares many of the characteristics of Boddhisatva Guanyin, including her propensity for Buddhist sayings and her ability to chant the sutra which constricts the headband on Wukong's forehead.

Extremely magnanimous, she understands Wukong is playing her role in the story as intended when she's indulging herself in mischievous pranks. She does step in when Wukong goes too far, and Wukong herself is terrified of Cheng'en that she'll listen to orders after token resistance.

 Even after learning the source of Wukong's frustrations, Cheng'en does not reproach Wukong for her motives. Instead, she advises Wukong to treat the experience as a trial to better herself. 

Cheng'En loves nothing more than to expound on the mysteries of the Buddhist Sutras to an attentive audience. Unfortunately her sermons are so powerful they can draw the audience back for more, which is a problem if the audience is comprised of Registers from other stories. In addition, the listeners are so entranced they undergo a kind of brainwashing which has residual effects if the sermons are forcibly stopped.  Wukong is aware of the power of the sermons, so she advises others to flee while they can. /
