Wells Jaha

Wells Jaha was a main character featured in The 100. He was one of the Delinquents sent to Earth to see if it could support human life. Wells was the son of Thelonious Jaha. He was murdered by Charlotte in Earth Kills.

Personality
Wells is strong, strict, and wants the best for himself and others. His personality is similar to his father, Chancellor Jaha's. Always one to try and follow the rules, Wells is someone who tries to use all the things they learned on The Ark on the ground. Though many do not appreciate what he has to add to the group, Wells always sticks up for what he believes in. Loyal to a fault, in the past he has been known to try and protect others in any way possible. This point was proven when he took the blame for Clarke's father's death even though it was her mother's fault. He cared for Clarke so much he was willing to have her hate him than have her face the truth and hate her own mother.

Over time he's seen as not only a rule follower, but also as someone who has the courage to go against the popular vote if he believes it's right. Viewing the world in a very black and white sense, he tries to act in a sensible fashion. Most of the time Wells is predictable in his reactions -- putting others first, following the rules, and trying to use what he knows to make sense of everything happening. He's the type to try and figure things out in a logical way.

Physical Description
Wells had brown skin, dark eyes, and black hair with an athletic build.
