Wendy is Van's first travelling companion and joins him to find her brother who had been kidnapped by the Claw Man. Wendy is kind, compassionate and determined and often wishes to assist those in need of help that they meet during their travel, in contrast to Van's policy of leaving everbody to him/herself. Around her neck is a pink tortoise that serves as a good luck charm, given to her by her brother. (Source: Wikipedia)
