World of Animals 3/Ren

Ren is among the first student party members players obtain through the course of the game. Ren is primarily a support unit with a general lean towards removing ailments from party members, while also being able to apply some to other enemies.
==Bio==
Ren was born in a village near one of the Medicinal States in Hoarg. He was the younger brother of Ecklo, who began training as a preteen to be able to take up a blade. Their father was afflicted with a chronic illness, and unfortunately, their village was very underdeveloped, so whenever their father would face an episode, there was constant worry in the family over whether or not he'd pull through easily. Ergo, Ecklo would be hard at work trying to make himself an exceptional member, exceptional enough to garner favor with the Medicinal State. Ren would try to train with him, but Ecklo refused him each time. Still, Ren wanted to help out their father.
He secretly followed his brother one day as the latter went to train on some of the dangerous wildlife. Ren ended up getting in danger with some of the creatures, prompting Ecklo to race in. His saving him led to the older brother taking an injury that cost him his eye, a fact that ultimately wore down relations between the two of them. Ren grew too ashamed of himself to even try and be in the same room as Ecklo while the latter wouldn't try to reach out to him. One day, Ecklo would receive a letter from the Medicinal State asking him to be one of their guards, and he accepted. He was thus whisked from the village, but was able to send a group of healers home to make sure their father was safe.
Ren, meanwhile, was suffering from deep guilt as he grappled with his uselessness during the excursion, in addition to the injury to his brother. He soon became aware of the art of smoking, and would rely on it to try and cool down after what happened at his home. This has, funnily enough, led him to learn more and more about herbs. His mother and father would support his wishes, and would work together to help lead him in his studies. Before they settled on a college for Ren, originally pondering enrolling him at the college in the state Ecklo had settled at, word spread of the college in Ruga opening up. Ren, still feeling guilty about what happened with his brother, begged to be sent to Ruga. So, with a heavy heart, his parents would help him get into that college with the Dragon.
==Character Description==
Ren is a fairly tall fox man. He is dressed in loose, thick yellow robes with petal-like prints along the lower edges of them. He also wears around him a pair of belts that he hangs various of his herbs from, as well as a pack on his side used to store various items he uses for his herbology. His pack has a separate pocket from which he draws a pipe. Other than that, he tends to have a fairly sleepy look on his face and tends to travel about in a fairly dazed state. There are also some students that seem to note that he either smells of the herbs he smokes or of far too much perfume.

</tabber>Ren 	A fox student from Hoarg. He's in a medical branch that's learning about the various plants, as well as any magical properties in them. Considering Ruga's own proximity to the Dragons, many consider the plants here to be teaming with magic, so Ren has been sent to the fields in order to study up on the nature. He's been learning plenty of medicinal applications of the magics and plants, and loves to record them in his journal. Some even describe him as a bit eccentric with his studies. However, none can deny how effective his teachings are, especially with the variants that mellow out those that take them. Come to think of it, there are certain days in the week where he's a lot more mellow than others.	A fox student from Hoarg.

In battle, he wields a Smoking Pipe, with which he deals Slashing damage. He's primarily a support member, wielding Restorative spells, as well as Ailment spells. He learns an array of helpful Ailments, especially those that induce Blind, Confusion, Poison, and Burn. He even has the chance to learn a passive that boosts his chance of applying Ailments. He has little damage output, however.	In battle, he wields a Smoking Pipe, with which he deals Slashing damage.

#Like Telle, Dona, and Rebla, players automatically start at Rank 1 on Mei 4th, 1431, when the various party members officially meet Eve.
#Ren leads Eve towards the residential area, specifically towards the dorms that the various students typically reside in. The fox has led the Dragon, her joined by a few guards, up to the roof of one of the buildings. One of the guards remarks that civilians aren't allowed up here, though Ren says that he's part of the janitorial staff, helps him get more money and fund his research. Sometimes he likes to just hang out up here and unwind. He demonstrates by approaching a carpet with the Hoarg emblem of rolling hills of sand etched upon it. Eve remarks that she hasn't seen this kind of textile before, to which one of the guards say that it's straight out of Hoarg. Rebla kneels upon it in a very practiced pose while bringing up his pipe.He passes the end to his lips, before softly exhaling. Eve can hear one of the guards scoff in disgust. The Dragon remarks that she wasn't really taught about these drugs, and wonders if Ren could tell them a little about it. Ren warns her that these things aren't exactly for everybody. This one he's gotten pretty familiar with, and he explains that it's a depressant. It lowers brain activity and lets all of the stress stuff just feel not as strong. Eve asks if that's what he's usually smoking, though he says that he swaps around his drugs frequently on the field, having a different one for any occasion. Hallucinogens, depressants, sometimes stimulants... The Dragon asks if that's all safe. The fox lets out an absent-minded chuckle and says that life ain't safe, he's just doing what he can to coast along... One of the guards say that they should probably leave him, though Eve shakes her head and says that she'd like to keep close. She decides to sit next to him, and asks if she can hang around. He says she can, though warns she isn't much of a talker in this mode. And thus, the two hang out, the herbalist silently enjoying Eve's company.
#Ren now makes his way to a botanist in Ruga, Eve deciding to follow after him. The two of them make their way along some of the streets in the market district. Eve asks what the fox where they're heading, to which Ren says that this place has helped him in a fair bit of his research. The duo make it to a shop named Findley Flowers. It's a small room set in the corner of a building occupied by others, and in it is shelves of various flowers. At the far end is a flamingo woman of slender build. She greets the duo warmly before getting happier upon realizing that the princess herself as arrived at her place. The Dragon waves to her while Ren searches through some of her goods. He takes notice of some red-petteled ones with whiteness in the base of the petals. Ren remarks that this is a thanau orchid!Eve asks what that is, to which the flamingo says that she got some of these from one of Enror's mountains. They're one of those flowers that earned their color through absorbing the magical energy from specific terrains, in this one's case the fire within Enror's mountains. Ren remarks that that means these things can't be repopulated unless the seeds are placed in that same soil. The flamingo admits that's the case, and says that she can't quite part with them, unfortunately. Ren supposes that makes sense... Still, he wouldn't mind browsings around here a little more. Thus, Eve decides to stick around and hear him gush about the flowers with the seller, the two feeling their bonds deepen.
#Eve follows Ren again, him on the roof and setting himself upon the rug again. The Dragon notices it's the same as before, and the fox notices her staring. He says that these things were developed over in the central south of Hoarg. He asks the Dragon whether she knows the significance of these or not, and if Eve's Knowledge is high enough, she'll answer that these things were made as part of a prayer. Otherwise, she says she doesn't know, and Ren will inform her. He continues saying that individuals are meant to offer their prayer towards Ruga, where the meeting place between their world and the Draconic Gardens is located. Eve remarks that that is interesting, and asks if all of Hoarg prays like that. Ren shakes his head and answers that there are different styles throughout the kingdom.There's a moment of quiet as he offers his prayer, before he soon finishes and takes his pipe. Eve asks what he prayed for, to which he says he's not sure if he can say exactly. The Dragon says that, technically, she's the sort of person he'd be praying to. He's quiet for a moment, before supposing she's right. So, Eve asks again what it is he'd like. He's quiet again, before simply stating that he wants good health for his family. Eve says that she'd love to hel pwith that, though she hasn't met his family yet. The fox says that he's not sure when he'll be able to bring her around. Eve says she's available whenever, and Ren is grateful that she wishes to help them out like this.
