[b][Color=Silver]Personality:[/color][/b]
It would not be a stretch to refer to Rhein as “eccentric”, and even less so to refer to him as “lazy”. Rhein would honestly prefer not to go on hunts most of the time, but acknowledges that it’s both the “best” and “only” way of achieving his goal of becoming wealthy and retiring in an estate surrounded by cute maids and good food. Many who have only seen him outside of a hunt have referred to him as a “good-for-nothing, whose only skills are eating, napping and being a pervert”. And, to be frank, some of that still remains true even while Hunting. Even in the heat of battle, Rhein tries as hard as he can to not have to exert himself too much, often leaving the bulk of the work to the more enthusiastic members of the Hunting Party. There are times, however, when Rhein gets truly worked up, showing that there is a hot-blooded beast under his goofy exterior.

Rhein is not without his good points, however. While he doesn’t always make an effort to make it known (perhaps due to some poor attempt at seeming aloof, or finding it too embarrassing to say), he cares very deeply for those who he’s grown to consider his “friends”, and seeing them in mortal danger is one of the few ways to get him to break from his normally laid-back ways and actually get angry. Furthermore, Rhein is an observant individual with a keen eye [i](Heh)[/i] for detail and guessing other peoples’ intentions.  

[b][color=Silver]History:[/color][/b]
As far as anyone is concerned, and as far as Rhein is willing to let on, he’s just some guy with an eyepatch who decided to become a Hunter. Due to his laziness, it took him a while before he actually managed to form a proper Hunting Party and, by extension, work up the capital to procure his first Prowler. Judging from Rhein’s knowledge of certain places, one could assume that he is fairly well-traveled, though he’ll make every effort to dodge the question when one tries to pry into his past. It is notable, however, that he seems to get a bit nervous when one mentions the kingdom of “Entelexeia” for whatever reason, though he’s very quick to play it off.



[b][Color=Silver]Skills and Abilities:[/color][/b]
One might be surprised to see that one like Rhein has a notable command over both Ki and Magic, something which is the mark of a skilled individual. As far as Magic goes, it seems that Rhein’s specialty is in the realm of Reinforcement magic, using it in tandem with Ki to boost the power of his attack and defense. However, even more impressive is his use of a form of Reinforcement called “Overedging” that he can use on weaponry, increasing the offensive properties of armaments at the cost of causing damage from the “overload” of mana being ran through them. Other than Reinforcement, Rhein is also fairly decent at using healing magic and is, of course, capable of simply releasing mana in the form of simple blasts of energy, or arcs off of the swings of his weapons. 
Rhein’s use of Ki can be argued to be better than his magic, being able to fight monsters adequately without a weapon if it ever came to that point. Rhein is capable of launching blasts of Ki at a distance, but his preferred method of combat in hand-to-hand is to send blasts of Ki directly into the body of an opponent through a punch or palm thrust, a technique which is known to be employed by several kinds of martial arts throughout Dunamis.
Currently unknown whether or not Rhein possesses an Over-Skill.

[b][color=Silver]Equipment:[/color][/b]
N.A.W Accel Blade Model “Fragarach”: A sword and shield-style “Accel Blade” model developed by Nuada Arms Works.  The sword itself is fairly long, and sports a rectangular, black blade that has a silver zig-zag shaped “crack” running down its length. The blade is a bit more thick than normal, doubling as a kind of bludgeoning weapon. The sword has no guard, but a rectangular strip of metal runs from the sword’s handle up from the base of the blade with the enscription “N.A Works” in gold on one side, of the blade, and “Fragarach” on the other. The handle is somewhat long, and made of a black material with the appearance of marble and has a trigger by where one’s index finger would be, with a gold, rectangular pommel capping it off. The shield is also rather big, slightly moreso than the already long blade and is shaped “heater-style”, while being flat like a kite shield. The shield, much like the accompanying blade, is black and has silver trim around the sides, and the face of the shield has an engraving of Nuada Arms Works’ insignia of a silver fist raised into the air. While obviously well-suited for defense, the Fragarach model’s shield serves a variety of other purposes. At the top of the shield is a port into which one can insert the sword to use the shield as a sheath for the blade when travelling.. The shield also acts as the vehicle through which the Fragarach performs its function as an Accel Blade. While “sheathed”, if one presses the trigger on the Fragarach’s blade, the shield will release a burst of mana internally that will eject the sword with great force, acting as an aid in the use of quickdraw attacks for greater cutting power and speed. As an additional function, the shield is capable of acting as a larger blade, as the edges are actually sharpened to allow for the use of the shield as a rather large sword if one requires a heavier weapon.
