Rana Linchen

Rana Linchen is the tritagonist of the Freezing anime/manga series. She was enrolled into West Genetics as a second grade student. She is simple, honest, and has a righteous character. She wants Kazuya Aoi as her 'soul-mate' (Limiter) because her 'Tears of Kunlun' (Stigmas) reacted when he activates his freezing abilities. The other students, some of whom she was able to meet, find it hard to understand the terms she uses, such as for: Limiter, Stigmas, and the term 'Kunlun'.
She is voiced by Kana Hanazawa in the Japanese version, and by Jamie Marchi in the English version.
==Background==
Rana was born and raised in Tibet. She was born with one Stigma already implemented in her body at birth, she was a special child. The monks who housed her aptly named these Stigmata "The Tears of Kunlun", referring to the goddess they worship. When Rana turned 18 and fulfilled her training, the elders sent her out into the world with the assignment to find the one who resonates with the Tears of Kunlun. They first send her to West Genetics, believing that her "soul-mate" would be residing there.
==Appearance==
When she first arrives at West Genetics, Rana has navy-blue hair that was tied in a ponytail by orange hair bands with another hair bands going down on each space of the ponytail. She has a tattoo under the outer corner of her left eye. Her eyes match her hair colour. Unlike most Pandora's, she was born with her Stigmata. Her Stigma type is also different from other Pandora's', as it is referred to as Maria-Type. She has fairly big breasts, but compared to Satellizer, Rana is on the "normal end" of breast sizes. When Rana joins Platoon 13, she dons a bright red version of the uniform.
==Personality==
Rana is generally a "happy-go-lucky girl" who enjoys being with Kazuya, whom she claims to be her "soul-mate". Though free spirited and teasing, she also tends to be very competitive against Satella, mostly over Kazuya. Perhaps because of her rural upbringing, Rana has little modesty or shyness and is not afraid to get close to Kazuya, often rubbing up on him. Despite multiple warnings by Kaho and Arthur about his relationship with Satellizer, Rana aggressively tries to get closer to Kazuya, much to Satellizer's eternal frustration. She is also more than happy to get physical with him. However, after the Alaska arc, she wholeheartedly agrees to sharing him with Satellizer and starts to call her "big sister." However, in spite of being naïve and guileless, Rana has a strong sense of justice.
