====New Family====
====Betrayal====
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 and the most respected son of the Haan family. He was loved by everybody in the clan. At some point, his mother died of unmentioned reasons and in time, his father had fallen in love with a new brave woman. Admiring her courage, Aren's father persisted her to marry until she accepted. Along with the woman was her daughter [[Ara]]. Whilst 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.
Ran was once a demon serving under the Red-Demon Lord [[Stirbargen]]. Eventually, during the warring era of the Demon World, Ran betrayed his lord. Due to this betrayal, [[Stirbargen]] was sealed in the subspace of the Demon World.


Even when [[Ara]] felt depressed, saddened, and not knowing what she should do, Aren was there to comfort her. He requested to spar with his sister. He easily dodged and deflected her early attacks. Knowing his sister was hesitant, he pushed her to become more serious. After she won with her spear right below his chin, Aren admitted defeat. He tells his sister that she should devote herself to her training and one day, she will be able to openly express herself.
====The Demon Commander====
 
Some time after [[Aren]] departure from [[A burning village|Isshin]], he sought to find something. However, in his search, he called upon a demon, one who would take his body. [[Aren]], now trapped under the control of the demons, became the Demon Commander Ran.
====The Festival====
Sometime before the festival gathering, all of the powerful families of the Northern Empire arrived. Aren alongside his entire family went to the Northern Empire's capital to attend the festival and remain on good terms with the Emperor. During the festival, one of the main attractions was a sparring competition between the various families, but Aren injured his arm while riding horseback and could not participate. 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 disappointed 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, his step-sister [[Ara]]. [[Ara]] heard her brother's words and stepped forward. 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 her all along.
 
====Warrior of Fahrmann====
One day, Aren partook a post in Fahrmann's capital and left the village of [[A burning village|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 is now known as the demon commander Ran.


====The Demon Commander====
As Ran, he returned to his once home village to take the Moon El for the demon army. His demon forces were powerful and the village [[A burning 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 beneath 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, but as he did so the remnants of [[Aren]] prevented him. The opening allowed [[Ara]] to fuse with Eun and was able to escape [[A burning village|Isshin]] with her life. Ran successfully completed his mission in Fahrmann.
Some time after his departure from [[A burning village|Isshin]], Ran sought to find something. However, in his search, he called upon a demon, one who would take his body. Aren, now trapped under the control of the demons, became the Demon Commander Ran. Aren struggles under the control of the demon but his struggles are not enough to break free of their control.

As he continued to search for the girl in his quest to rid her, therefore ridding one of the remaining grips for [[Aren]], he ran into his [[Stirbargen]]. Ran states he did not recognize him at first given his new childish appearance, however claims he no longer has any loyalty to him. [[Stirbargen]] notices Ran appears to be proud of his betrayal but then states he no longer cares about his throne. He tells Ran of a bet he made with Eun, and that Ran is not to harm [[Ara]] in fear of his life as [[Stirbargen]] quickly surrounds him with spikes of demon energy. He tell him that he will make another bet once they all converge before parting ways.


====Demon Invasion of Hamel====
====Demon Invasion of Hamel====
Under the command of [[Scar]], 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 [[7-6|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.
