Description

Ara's brother and the leader of the demons invading Hamel. He has captured the Water Priestess and has obtained the Water Seal from Avalanche.

History

New Family

Before Ran became the demon general that invaded Hamel, he was Aren Haan, a blood descendant of the famed Haan family of the Northern Empire Xin. The most respected son of the Haan family, he loved by everybody in the clan. At some point his mother died of unmentioned reasons, in time his father had fallen in love with a new women, a brave women he had seen. Admiring her courage, Aren's father persisted to marry the woman until she accepted. Along with the women, was he daughter Ara. While his new mother got along with his father perfectly fine, his siblings constantly teased her and Ara. Aren however chose not to partake in such actions and treated them much like family.

Even when Ara felt depressed and saddened, not know what she should do, Aren was there to comfort her. He requested to spar with his sister. He easily dodged and defected her early attacks. Knowing his sister was hesitant he pushed her to become more serious. Until she won, with her spear right below her his chin, Aren admitted defeat. He tells his sister that she should devote herself to her training, and one day she'll be able to openly express herself.

The Festival

Sometime before the festival gathering all the powerful families of the Northern Empire arrived, Aren has injured his arm while riding horseback. He alongside his entire family went to the Northern Empire's capital to attend the festival and remain in good terms with the Emperor. During the festival, one of the main attractions was a sparring competition between the various families, unfortunately due to his injuries, Aren could not participate in the competition. His fellow siblings compete but despite the Haan family's famed skills, they were defeated by members of the Zhen family. The Zhen family was disappointing that they were not able to fight the Haan family's best warrior but were happy that their family was victorious. However Aren spoke up and mentioned that there was one more member of the Haan family which they had not fought yet, of course he was referring to his step-sister Ara. Ara heard her brother's words and stepped forwards. She competed against the Zhen family's fighter and won the battle. Aren watched the battle and when it was over, he spoke confidently to his sister that he was right about his sister all along.

Warrior of Fahrmann

A proud warrior of the Haan family from the village of Isshin in the country of Fahrmann. One day, Aren partook a post in Fahrmann's capital and left the village of Isshin. The demons came from the Demon World and attacked Fahrmann, starting with the capital. Unable to defend against the demon invasion forever, the capital fell and Aren's strong connection to the Moon El made him a prime target to be brainwashed by the demons. He was known as the demon commander Ran.

Attacking Fahrmann

As Ran, he would return to his once home village to take the Moon El for the demon army. His demon forces were powerful and the village Isshin burned to the ground. Ara did her best to defend her village but the oncoming demon forces forced her and the other Haans further back until Ara was the only one left. Hurrying to the sanctuary she confronted Ran and Victor, Ran went off to search for the Moon El while Victor attacked Ara. Cornered and without any hope of surviving, the floor crumbled underneath her and she found herself in an ancient sanctuary and saw a shadow. Ara looked up and got a good look at the figure, only to realize that she was face to face with her brother Aren. Aren, now Ran, had little sympathy for his once sister and was ready to strike her down. However, Ara fused with Eun and was able to escape Isshin with her life. Ran successfully completed his mission in Fahrmann.

Demon Invasion of Hamel

Ran's next course of action was to take the Water Priestess Sasha, the Water Seal from Hamel, and the Senace Principality. The demon invasion in Hamel set much of the country in ruins except the capital city of Hamel. Ran attacked the Temple of Frozen Water and corrupted the Priest Avalanche. Ran was able to successfully captured Sasha, but his duty had not been complete. Despite having the Water Priestess in captivity, he still required the Water Seal. Ran persuaded the Duke of Hamel Rod Ross by promising unimaginable power if he were to aid him in corrupting Hamel's White Colossus Helputt and retrieving the Water Seal.

Chapter 13: Secrets of the Temple

In the El Search Party's quest to aid Rod Ross and obtain the Water Seal, they discovered that Avalanche had been hiding the sacred artifact in his scepter. After hearing this, Ran struck Avalanche, killing him and took the Water Seal for himself. After the El Search Party found Ran at the end of the Halls of Water, Ran had already finished his job. Chung fought Ran but Ara finally catching up with her brother and defended him. Using this opportunity, Ran fled away from Hamel and made his way to Sander, where he informed Karis to embark on her plans.

Moves

  • Dark Sword Combo: Ran slashes with his sword twice, then uses his shadow arm to attack and launch you into the air. He can cancel this attack on his own after the first two strikes.
  • Black Fire Claw: Ran will materialize a shadow arm and use it to slash you. He will use this move when he is knocked down or when you are more than a certain distance away from him. He will always target the player furthest away from him with this attack.
  • Shadow Clone: If you try to distance yourself from Ran, he will create a clone of himself next to you and attack. He will always target the player furthest away from him with this attack.
    • He can still use this move even if you stay close to him, however he will use it less.
  • Aerial Black Fire Claw: Ran will ascend to the air and will move left or right of the stage for a small distance. He will use Black Fire Claw to swipe anyone that is close to him as he descends.
  • Black Flame Burst: Ran will swing his sword and unleash a trail of black fire towards you. Includes freeze frames. He will only use this after his second awakening.
  • Black Destiny: Ran will unleash several slashes against you, each followed by a rapid burst of black fire, and finishes his string of attacks with an eruption of dark energy. Includes freeze frames. He will only use this after his second awakening.
  • Reverse Gravity: A spell circle will appear under Ran. Any player caught within the circle will slowly rise into the air and will be vulnerable for his next attack, where he releases a shock wave from the ground. He will use this whenever he is awakening after his HP is depleted. He will only use this regularly after his first awakening, his second awakening will almost double its area of effect. This attack will abruptly cancel many special actives used within its area of effect.
  • Awakening I: Dark Enhancement: After depleting about 1/4 of Ran's health, he will enhance his sword with darkness. Afterwards, his attacks will then inflict Curse on you. All claw related attacks become larger and more damaging.
