**Kyle Rance**, also known as **RH9-4.8** is a Replicant created in the year 2048 and is currently working as a Corproal for the NY Insurgents, however he is also a "part time" Looper. Before this Kyle used to work as a Replicant Hunter for the corrupt LAPD.

## Personality

Kyle is an exceptional soldier, and as such will follow orders to a T, even if he doesn’t always exactly agree with them. However if he feels they are too far, he will refuse. Being an amazing soldier, he does have quite a calm demeanour, especially in violent situations. He can witness nearly anything and not be affected by it mentally, or at least not as badly as anyone else. Despite what some people will say, he does have a good personality and sense of humour when the time calls for it. Kyle does have a few flaws, one of which being if he is pushed enough, Kyle can go into a fiery rage and be almost blinded by anger, however he is good at controlling this. Additionally, Kyle has no problem with murder or killing anyone as he believes that collateral damage is just pure nature, so some must die to get what to what they believe. That being said, Kyle does like avoiding these situations but is able to choose the better of two bad options if needed.

## Physical Appearance

Although he is only around 7 years old, Kyle has the appearance of a 30 year old in his prime, being physically supreme to most average people. He is also 5' 11 in height and weighs 191 lbs.

In terms of clothing, Kyle tends to wear a custom made Black Coat, a Navy Shirt, some Black Combat-Trousers and a pair Black Combat Boots. Additionally, he keeps his Black leather Vortex Manipulator on his left wrist, akin to Jack Harkness.

## Weaknesses

* **False Memory Relapse:** During the early days of Replicant construction, they all seemed to have the same trouble of obedience, or rather their lack of it. This is why they began to implant Replicants with false memories, and Kyle is no different. However these memories can often cause more harm than goo for Kyle, especially due to the fact he found out they are implanted and as such, false. When brought up to Kyle, it can cause many different effects and emotions ranging from pure rage and anger to immense sadness and even depression.
* **Rage:** Kyle can be known to go on a raging rampage or attacks if pushed too far. This is merely due to his Replicant mind not being as fine tuned emotionally as the standard Human mind. This can be a downside as it can blind Kyle's motives and can cause him to commit some very regrettable actions.
* **Completionist:** When it comes to the job and missions, Kyle is something of a completionist, meaning he will do anything and everything to complete his goal, be it hurt people, commit crimes or even murder.
* **Realist:** Kyle refers to himself as a realist, but this is usually just a way of him explaining his beliefs on collateral damage. Kyle believes that collateral damage is a necessary evil in the world, and as such innocent deaths and property damage are unfortunate, but needed for a greater cause.

## Equipment

* **Standard LAPD Blaster:** Kyle, when put into the LAPD not long after his creation, was granted a pistol from the LAPD. This blaster was quite powerful, being able to fire powerful rounds as well as having a laser sight and a small shotgun-like barrel on the bottom section to allow for up close and messy situations.
* **Blunderbuss Shotgun:** This shotgun, like the LAPD blaster, was gifted to Kyle on joining the mafia group which co-ordinated the Loopers and their Loops. This gun is used to kill the people sent back to die by a Looper's hand.
* **Vortex Manipulator:** A Vortex Manipulator can travel through space and time, however it can be quite inaccurate with its abilities, and also has the minor chance of burning out dead after use. Additionally, the device takes about a while to recharge after every use unless it is boosted by a device such as a TARDIS or a Sonic Screwdriver. This device is also known to be used as a hacking device and a way to control other devices it is linked to. On one of Kyle's Loop missions, he came across a Vortex Manipulator on the body of one of his victims. Kyle took this device and, knowing what it was already, decided to keep it. However he later found out it had died of its power and was unable for use for many years.
* **Spinner Car:** This vehicle is the standard vehicle of the LAPD. However after Kyle left the LAPD, he ran away and kept the car. He later modified it himself to give to better weaponry, shields and a boost in speed.
* **Fob Watch:** Kyle has a small Fob Watch he was gifted when he was a Looper. The small sliver watch, which is attached to a chair on Kyle's coat, can automatically adjust to the time zone or time period around him.
