Personality
On Ran's business card read the words "A mercenary with a heart of gold". He is fun loving and a very lax person. Ran doesn't enjoy stressing over things, so rather then stress over any given situation he just tries to work with the situation then fight against it. He is a lover of the finer things, games, booze and men. Ran is very open about his sexuality but usually isn't concerned about yours, even if you are not interested in Ran, he won't hesitate to try to get his way with you (within the laws of course). He enjoys sweet things a little too much, candy being his greatest weakness. Ran isn't one to get mad but he is one to get serious especially with a job. Any and all jobs assigned to him by FUG are absolute no ifs or buts. Ran on the job is a different beast all together. He is as efficient as he is terrifyingly deadly, taking mostly assassination jobs and having a track record of never letting his target live for more then a few hours.

Abilities and skills
Shinsoo control (adept): Above all Ran is a Wave Controller and he can prove extremely well. Strengthening his body with Shinsoo, flow control, reverse flow control are all second nature for him. On a more advanced level he can effect light using Shinsoo and is able to make holograms and turn himself as well as others invisible by shifting and bending light particles. Using that same skill he can also bend how the landscape around him looks. He is able to create 40 bangs easily and use each one for a different purpose if he can focus on it. He can increase the pressure of Shinsoo in a given area as long as he can see it. While his mastery over Shinsoo offensively is impressive he seems almost unable to use Shinsoo defensively by making barriers and he is only able to increase the durability of his body with Shinsoo to a certain point. He excels as using Shinsoo to attack and increasing his speed as well as physical power. Ran can give Shinsoo a flame like property and uses that to attack. Although his flame attacks are a force to be reckoned with he dislikes trying to contain it. He would rather cause as much destruction with it as he can. While he can pinpoint his flame attacks he usually just causes a huge explosion in the enemy's area, this can lead to his flame attacks getting powerful but sloppy. In some cases he has been seen to use Shinsoo to float or even fly but rarely does he use that ability, no one can say why though.
Hand to hand combat master: There has never been a moment where Ren has picked up a weapon and fought with it. His whole life he has been fighting with his arms, legs and teeth. He can easily fight toe to toe with an enemy even if they are using a weapon. Fighting his whole life without a weapon has helped Ran gain an extremely fast reaction time. The perfect counter to most moves have been ingrained into Ran's subconscious, his fighting is purely instinctual.
Quick regeneration: Having the blood of all 10 families in his blood has given him the ability of quick regeneration. The time and rate of regeneration is dependent on the what is gone and how much of it is gone. If he loses an arm from the elbow down is can regenerate in five minutes. Regeneration happens on its own but Ran can speed it up if he focuses on it and stays stationary. The time is also dependent on if he is regenerating too many wounds. If he is regenerating one arm then it takes a significantly longer to finish if he has to regenerate two. One entire arm from shoulder down would take 10 minutes but if Ran was regenerating two arms it will take a 30 minutes to regenerate both. His powers will shut down if he has to regenerate too much at one time. He is also unable to regenerate vital organs such as the heart and lungs.
Ran has made a pact with the Guardians of the 20th, 50th, 77th and 134th floors. On those floors Ran's regeneration abilities are brought up to being near instant.

Weapons
Being a fisherman but not liking any weapon other then his hands he had a custom fish hook made for him. They are gloves with string that can be feed through the fingertips and be used as his fishing line. He can have ten different strings at once going but the length of each string is shortened compared to a normal hooks. The range that Ran can cast his string is shorter too. The tips of the fingers have metal points used to puncture and claw at the enemy.
History
Ran had lived in the slums of the tower, his job was as an underground arena fighter. He hated it but it was the best kind of job he could get, the pay was good and he was good at what he did. His family always questioned how he was providing for them but Ran never answered honestly. He was able to provide well for his family until a ranker felt the need to join a match. It was a big one, Ran vs the unknown ranker, the stakes were high and so were the bets. In the end Ran didn't stand a chance. The ranker didn't even give move an inch, it was a one sided battle. In one night Ran seemed to lose everything, his job, his home, his family. He stayed awake all night cursing the ranker that did this to him. Screaming to the sky how he would kill him. It was then that Headon came to him and give him the opportunity to climb.
He started like every other regular, all young and plucky thinking that they can take on any challenge that the tower threw their way. It only took two years for Ran to see how wrong he was. Going up all the floors he saw sadness, unlike anything he knew previously. He had experienced loss that made him crumple and fall. He had looked into hell and saw what horrors awaited him. Once he got to the 20th floor he stopped going up and decide to spend the rest of his life there, this is when FUG found him. Ran shared many of the ideals that FUG has and joined them. After he had been with them for a few years the opportunity to become a "Mad Dog" opened up to him and Ran took it. With the blood of the 10 families and a year of fighting for his life in the pit Ran began to make his way back up the tower. He became a Ranker after 430 years and a powerful member of FUG. He is now undertaking missions that are assigned to him in the tower by FUG.
