==Biography==
===Hired Assassin===
====Murder of Daniel Fisher====
Under the order of Wilson Fisk, Rance tracked Karen Page to the Three Roads Bar when she tried to tell her coworker, Daniel Fisher, of the illegal activities at Union Allied Construction. He drugged the pair's drinks before viciously stabbing Fisher to death and leaving his corpse in Page's apartment for her and the police to find.Daredevil: 1.01: Into the Ring
====Stalking Tracy Farnum====
Later, Rance was on the college campus of Tracy Farnum, watching her in order to ensure the cooperation of her father, Clyde Farnum. Farnum was approached by James Wesley, who had Rance reveal himself on a live video feed during a conversation between them to show that Tracy's life was in danger. Wesley admitted to Farnum that he found Rance's methods for assassinations highly "unpleasant". The plan was successful and due to his fear of his daughter's safety, Farnum agreed to assassinate Page for Fisk.
====Attack on Karen Page====
Rance was then hired to kill Karen Page and obtain the flash drive that she had of the financial discrepancies and embezzlement of Union Allied Construction. He broke into Karen Page's Apartment and, after she obtained the flash drive from the bathroom's ceiling tiles, proceeded to assault her until she relinquished it. Rance then pulled out a knife to kill Page when a masked man began to fight him.
The fight became so intense that the two fell to the street below and fought in the rain. Rance fought well with his weapon, making the masked man's mouth drip with blood. The masked man was ultimately victorious over Rance by knocking him unconscious and tying him with a chain. Rance was then left outside the New York Bulletin with Page's drive.
====Arrest and Murder====
Rance was arrested and set up as Daniel Fisher's killer in a break-in gone wrong. While he was being held inside the 15th Precinct Police Station, he was found hanged from the ceiling by a bedsheet.
===Legacy===
====Karen Page's Trauma====
The damage Rance had done to Karen Page was more than physical when he rammed her head into a wall; she became afraid to go home because he shocked her when he appeared from the shadows.Daredevil: 1.02: Cut Man Leland Owlsley wondered why John Healy was not killed instead of allowed a trial when he was captured by the New York City Police Department; James Wesley explained that there were too many bodies recently, including that of Rance.Daredevil: 1.03: Rabbit in a Snowstorm
When Union Allied Construction wanted her to accept a bribe for her "troubles," Page relayed that her troubles included two attempts on her life, one from Rance.Daredevil: 1.04: In the Blood
