People often describe him as immature because of his joyous nature and love for pranking people. Renard hardly ever takes live seriously and has a habbit of challenging any form of authority. He is rebellious by nature and often goes against the commands of the guildmaster and the higher ranking wizards of the guilds. Renard simply feels most alive when he's breaking rules and crossing boundries. Needless to say that he often gets himself into trouble. His rebellious nature doesn’t mean that does not care about the guild, his friends or that he's a bad guy by nature. The fact is that he deeply cares for the ones he loves and will not stand idly when they suffer. Renard shares his food when his friends go hungry, and when he has no more food to share he will steal it with no second thought. Renard is not easily infuriated and by far most insults and name calling justs slides off him as if he's made of teflon. However a few subjects are off-limit and will ruin his mood. Don't bring up parents or the incident of 3 months ago. Renard gets easily bored and frustrated. He’s addicted to action and when bored, he will often go around pranking people. His favorite victims are ofcourse rival guilds, especially Sabretooth and his own guildmates. Occasionally the townspeople are also at the butt of his jokes. [b]History::[/b] Renard does not know his parents. As a bady he was left in front of the Cresent moon orphanage. Nobody knew who dropped him but old lady Aryah took care of him none the less. As Renard grew up, he soon realized that there was just so much one old lady could provide for a few dozen orphaned kids. Food, proper clothing and other necessities where always short in the orphanage. So one day Renard decided to do something about it and stole a few bread from the market. Coming home, the old lady scolded him for stealing the bread and forced him to return it to the baker. That night, once again the children would go to bed hungry. Renard could not let this go and the next day, he went stealing again. Rather then telling it this time he would simply distribute the food back on the street, out of sight of the old lady. This would continue until the day that Renard picked the lock of some fancy home. Rather than taking food, money or clothing, he Felt himself being drawn towards a bookshelf. Going through it, he picked up a book called “The art of animal soul”. It was a book about take-over magic. As Renard read through the papers, he soon discovered he had a talent for take-over magic and soon started to aquire animal forms. With this new skill, he now could even get what the orphans needed more easily than ever. By the age of 12, Renard had become a very proficient thief using various animal forms to enter places that could otherwise not be penetrated. He became such a nuicanse to the people of Magnolia that they put up a job at Sabretooth to catch the shape-shifting thief. At first, Renard could throw them off but he was eventually cought and handed over to authorities who convicted him to 1 year in jail. After 1 year the authorities decided that rather bring him back to the orphanage, it would be better to ask Fairy Tail's guild master Theodora Wainwright if she would take this young delinquent in and teach him the proper way of wizards. A task she accepted. Fairy Tail would soon find out that they had a little trouble maker on their hand. It took some time but eventually Renard fit in and found his new familily and all went reasonably well until the incident. 3 months ago Renard took up a job to protect a town agains an evil wizard who had pledged to destroy the town. A battle was fought and during that battle, Renard attempted to use a full take-over on his Kitsune form. However he lost control to the fox-spirit and destroyed everything in sight. The town was left in ruins and the evil wizard walked away. Since that day, Fairy Tail's guildmaster forbid the young wizard to use that take-over and go on jobs for a while. For now, Renard is confined to the guildhall to do chores in order to repent for his wrongdoings. Magic [u]Magic Name::[/u] Take over - Animal soul [b]Description::[/b] Animal soul is a form of take-over magic that allows the user to take on the psysical form and abilities of different kind of animals. This can either be a partial take-over where certain bodyparts are transformed into animal ones or full body take-overs where Renard takes the shape of the animal. [b]Animal forms::[/b] [u]Take-Over Mouse:[/u] Renard becomes a tiny mouse, enabling him to crawl into some of the most confined spaces not accessible to regular humans or even small animals. [u]Take-Over Gorrila:[/u] Renard transforms himself into a giant gorrila gaining a huge amount of strength. [u]Take-over Cheetah:[/u] Renard takes the shape of a cheetah gaining the animals impressive speed and hunting capabilities. [u]Take-Over Eagle:[/u] Renard transforms into an eagle. In eagle form Renard is able to fly and has his eyesight greatly improved. [u]Take-over Beetle:[/u] Renards takes the shape of a man-sized Ironclad Beetle gaining the ability to withstand impressive amounts of punishment with its very tough exoskelleton. [u]Take-Over Kitsune:[/u] Fox-Spirit is by far the most powerful take-over Renard posesses. Where his other take-overs are all based upon regular animals his fox-spirit take-over is a little different. Renard initially was under the impression that he'd taken over a regular animal but the truth is that he had taken over a fox that trancended the boundries of the material life. In essence Renard took over a magical being that feeds on lifeforce by taking possesion of humans. This has created the weird situation that two creatures compete for dominance over the other. Renard does not have full control over the Kitsune form and thus can only do a partial transformation where he gains fox ears, claws and a tail. In Kitsune form Renard is granted access to a host of magical powers: * Illusion magic * Fox-fire manipulation * Life-force drain * Fox claws [b]Other[/b] Renard is rather small for his age. He stands at 5.3 feet and is often teased by his lack of height. However he never found his small statue a hindrance and is remarkebly agile. Renard is skilled in unarmed combat. He's stronger than his height and build would suggest. Utilizing quick punches and kicks, he can often overwhelm a foe with a flurry of blows. Relatives:: Renard does not have any relatives by blood. At least none that he knows of. However there are a lot of people he cares deeply about such as old Lady Aryah and his fellow guild members. [b]Possessions::[/b] [/hider]
