Name: Renn
Age: 19
Gender: male
Appearance: http://terra7.deviantart.com/art/Ren-323586537?q=gallery:terra7/15462559&qo=25 (Minus the sword), Stands almost as tall as Riku at 5'11, and is pretty thin, although well built in the legs. He wears comfortable and simplistic clothing of blue jeans, a black T-shirt, and silver sneakers although depnding on the weather he wears a few other items such as a Red hooded jacket for those colder or rainy days, or a black and red ball cap that covers his eyes from the sun. He has dark toned brown hair that barely touches his shoulders but he ties it back with a marroon elastic into a small ponytail, and his bangs are parted down the middle framing his face and keeping them out of his eyes. He wears bifocal rectangular lensed glasses framed in a bluish silver color that contrast the darker blue in his eyes.
Personality: Renn is somewhat of a chaotic nature having three different active personas, each of them is unique both in battle and out, and Renn's main persona, and each have their own hobbies and quirks, the one he has developed the most has recognized the other two and each has their own name or title. (each is recognized by the color of the text I put in).
The first is Renn's main persona, simply named "Renn 1.0". This persona is the one he was born with, a logical, disciplined, and serious individual with a resounding sense of pride in his abilities. His style in battle is actually executed like a game of chess in 1.0's mind, He may be acting on the same level as his opponent, but his Mind is 5, maybe 6 steps ahead once he fully analyzes his opponent's movement patterns and style of attacks. 1.0's hobbies include reading, puzzles, and showing off just how smart he is.
Renn's second persona is named 'Cloud' or nicknamed 'little emo'. This persona is almost rarely seen by anyone except himself. He keeps Cloud locked away so that no one knows how truly emotional he is. So people even wonder if "Cloud" even exists inside Renn. Cloud basically is a ticking time bomb of impulse and emotion. When Renn starts gushing about his past or when Renn gets really frustrated or angry, that's when Cloud comes out. Although no one has seen Cloud in battle, They say he's the strongest in terms of pure physical power when he's angry and when Cloud is sad in battle, He's a highly gifted spellcaster. Cloud doesn't really have any hobbies because Cloud is almost always under lock and key in Renn's mind and is the most unstable of the three.
Renn's last persona to come out is named 'Deadpool'. Renn in this persona is upbeat, Honest, but also very sarcastic and aloof. If 1.0 is able to control his emotions with just his Will, Deadpool counters negativity with positivity, like smiling when he's really sad or looking serious when he's carefree... Deadpool is 1.0's complete opposite and both 1.0 and Deadpool are counters to Cloud that's why they hold their emotions back. In battle Deadpool relies on unorthodox tactics and unusual combinations of both physical attacks and magic, Attacking similarly to Kefka by hurling fireballs that twist and turn, fooling the opponent into lowering his guard then hitting them when they least expect it. But there is a downside to this, if anyone knows how to analyze and counter his combos, he's boned pretty much. Deadpool's hobbies are also quite unexpected for Renn, He likes helping people out and being random and part of his randomness is that he LOVES breaking the fourth wall much like his namesake in UMVC3.
Bio: Renn was born and partially raised in radiant garden happily by his parents, that was until the war broke out, Xehanort had unleashed a horde of heartless upon each and every world. When the invasion began in radiant garden, Renn's parents and a lot of other adults went to look for survivors while they trusted the protection of the children to the restoration committee and several of the former residents of the castle such as Even, Ienzo, and Xaldin. Renn was looked after but his worry kept growing in his heart...His parents never came back for him. Renn found out from eavesdropping that Renn's parents were one of the many casualties, and Renn didn't have any relatives either so he knew he was alone in the world. No one to go to. No one who cared for him, and he suddenly broke into sadness and ran into the hallways of the castle. That was when he encountered his first heartless, it was a measly shadow and Renn didn't have a weapon. He knew he would die if he didn't run so he did... that was until he fell over a rock onto his knees and the heartless tried to get the jump on him but was suddenly obliterated by a blizzaga spell. He looked to where the spell was coming from to see Even and Ienzo down the hall. "There you are."
Renn grew to admire his elders including the restoration committee and especially so for Ienzo over the years he was raised on and off by all of them, and they became like real family to him, He learned how to fight with a sword from Leon, learned magic of differing varieties from Aerith, Ienzo, Even, and Dilan. and each of them had a place in his heart. None more so than Ienzo though. It was because Ienzo had lost his parents at a young age too. He learned a lot from Ienzo overtime and then. When Renn was 15, something truly unexpected happened, a blue and black tribal style keyblade appeared in Renn's hand while he was training with Leon. The keyblade wasn't that complex as it is now, you could see that Renn's keyblade evolved over the time that he's trained with Aqua and Riku.
Renn was soon brought to the land of departure by gummi ship and Renn was already decently trained in radiant garden in magic so he was a little bit ahead of his cohorts, knowing first tier spells already. He learned a lot from his four years worth of training to this point, But not without drawbacks, Renn's split personalities started coming out. When Cloud came out for the first time, it resulted in Renn's darkness becoming noticed and Renn started training with Riku. Renn knew he had to keep Cloud under his thumb if he wanted to control it. And he did learn to channel it through both Deadpool and 1.0 as a result. But with his dark attacks it heightens his emotions, and that could result in Cloud coming out regardless. Renn and Deadpool recognize the power born of darkness and will use it if he needs to. Renn has trained even more to keep Cloud and the full darkness that Cloud could command with his emotions.
Weapon: http://exusiasword.deviantart.com/art/Undying-Resolve-384342693 The keyblade is called Undying resolve, and it resonates with which personality Renn is using, in the pic this is when ' Renn 1.0' is in control, When Deadpool is up to bat, replace the light blue with Yellow and the Dark blue with Red, and depending on the two stages of Cloud he's in 'Angry Cloud' is just black and red, and 'Sad Cloud' is dark blue and black. The keychain never changes color.
Keyblade Ability: Adaptability- upon being reforged depending on the command style Renn uses the boost to stats of the keyblade are allocated strengthening the type of attacks that each persona uses.
Default and Spellblade: 4 strength, 3 magic. Random Attack time: 3 strength, 4 magic. Blazing might: 7 strength, 0 magic. Mystic Hopelessness: 1 strength, 6 magic.
Magic: All of Renn's attacks and spell commands vary from persona to persona.
Renn 1.0(he plays mostly on the defensive, incapacitating his opponents with stalling spells then exploiting opportunities with elemental physical attacks and is the main healer):
Cura- heals moderate wounds and helps him last a little longer in a battle quite obviously.
Zero Gravira- sends out a disk of gravity magic that incapacitates his opponents for a small amount of time also dealing damage slowly and leaves his foes open to attacks.
Magnera- creates a targeting spell that draws all enemies above him and disables them from moving away or attacking him in a medium based radius around him.
Stopra- Renn halts time for his target and those around it and stops their actions for longer than zero gravira although it deals no damage at all.
Deadpool(uses bizzare spell variations and causing havoc with Status-affecting physical attacks):
Sliding blizzard- slides an iceball toward a target, damaging them if it hits, can also be used for a practical joke on Deadpool's behalf.
Tri-fire- has three small points of fire arc towards the nearest enemy, doesn't last long and doesn't travel far.
Lickety-split thunder(if you remember kefka's lickety-split Thundaga, think that, only smaller)- sends out a chain of small lightning bolts, damaging all in it's path.
Creepy-crawly Fire- this is basically Crawling fire only it moves around more erratically. Dealing damage to unsuspecting foes.
Mad Cloud(He doesn't use magic at all so he doesn't know any spells in this persona Entirely based on physical attacks).
Sad Cloud (is a magical BEAST! He relies moreso on magic than physical attacks although knowing some devastating attacks later on):
Curaga- Heals almost 75% of a target's or the user's life, very useful in long battles,
Transcendence- summons Three large orbs that expand into one large orb that surrounds a large radius around Renn and tosses all opponents in the radius around, dealing damage based on the collisions, so the more foes inside, the more damage done.
Fission Dark Firaga- greatly improved upon it moves faster explodes in a bigger area from the target and increases the time of blind incapacitation by a few seconds.
Thundaga shot- an orb of lightning is shot at an opponent and if hit it deals high lightning based damages within the radius of the target.
Abilities:
Combat: Renn customizes his Spells and attack abilities into certain setups but can only hold 4 commands at a time. He knows all the spells and attacks that his other persona's have and by having commands from his other persona's in his deck, he can swap persona's in the middle of battle.
Renn 1.0's basic attacks(in physical combat Renn uses attacks like Sliding dash, and Elemental strikes):
Fire strike- Renn sweeps his keyblade toward the ground, the attack being imbued with Fire and dealing more damage.
Thunder surge- charges toward a target, cloaked in thunder that can also stun any who is hit.
Blizzard edge - a powerful starter attack that has Renn slice his keyblade downward and produces a ice shard afterward for an extra hit.
Aerial Tackle - charges one opponent with an upward slash, then meets them in the air and hits them back toward the ground with a harder impact.
Deadpool's basic attacks( uses more long distance style attacks when fighting such as strike raid and status hindering attacks):
Confusion strike- A white smoke covers the keyblade and Deadpool sweeps the blade toward the ground while spinning, if it hits a target they can turn against their allies and attack them, or their movement alignment is reversed for about 5 seconds.
Poison edge - think blizzard edge only more devastationg overtime unless the target is immune to poison.
Trick raid - Deadpool throws his keyblade at one target and if it hits, all foes within the same group that appeared with it, are hit with keyblade duplicates no matter where they are.
Break time- Deadpool starts ranting about random stuff and breaking the fourth wall like Xemnas's buisiness. although he cannot use his keyblade to fight... The longer he isn't hit, the longer the rant will be and Deadpool will recover health so it's best to not use this command in combat.
Dark Haze- He charges forward with emotion driving him and darkness erupts from behind him propelling him forward. On weaker heartless it has a chance to inflict doom on a target, the full strength of the heartless determines the length the time before it dies.
Cloud's Commands(as Angry cloud he has a great range of all manner of physical strikes and attacks. although he is robbed of any magical type of attacks so he can maximize physical damage although he uses imbued attacks quite well):
Sacrifice- Part of Angry Cloud's one-two punch commands, Although sharing the same name of one of Terra's exclusive commands, Cloud's version is very versatile as it can be used for both crowd control and single combat. At the cost of two-thirds of his current stamina, his keyblade extends it's range and he can either perform an attack similar to Squall's Blasting zone limit break only black and uses flames instead of energy to extend his range, or he can sweep around his keyblade switch grip to send out a wave of darkness to attack surrounding foes. But the strength and range vary based on how much HP goes into the attack. The attack can't kill him but this attack is very risky, even for Cloud.
Limit storm -the second half of Cloud's powerful one-two punch, Depending on how low his health is, Limit storm gains power the less health he has left. On it's own it's an average spinning attack that exudes a blue aura from the keyblade. But if he's below 40% health it enters second stage, The aura is red now and the range is extended by two feet. Beware though just like Sacrifice this attack has been improved, when he's under 20% health it enters third stage. Third stage's range is twice as far reaching as first stage has a range of only five feet and is twice as strong as well.
(simple explaination: First stage= 10ft Radius, Second stage= 14ft radius and 1.5x damage rate, Third stage= 20ft radius and 2x damage rate)
Ars Solum- The only attack that Cloud knows that is ripped off but still a useful attack. Cloud does a powerful 5 hit combo of sweeping strikes that is meant to really hurt an opponent. Although flawed when you miss your mark Cloud only uses it to finish off pesky enemies who start to light his fire. The initial combo though isn't the end though. He has the option to perform one spinning attack then a back flip wheel strike to send his target into the air and then jumps up to meet it and slams his keyblade into the skull of his target with a helm-splitting overhead strike. (uses two command slots)
Shadowblade- Only used as a last resort, Cloud uses this command to restore health when he really needs to. But also very flawed because it's still experimental, it's only usefulness is on a one-on-one battle because he's completely open to attacks from behind. He dismisses his keyblade and a small glowing blade extends out from his fist and lasts for a certain amount of time or until his health is full. This blade is part of his body in a sense and when it wounds the target it drains the life out of his foe and into himself. This is also effective on heartless and as Cloud uses it he will be able to use it more and more in combat. He usually uses deception to hit his foes with this attack usually giving his foe a welcome stab to the back as he avoids a frontal assault.
Sad Cloud(specializes in spells tier 3 and up):
Curaga- a really useful spell when battles are both tough and drawn out, The spell heals Cloud for 75% percent of his total health
Thundaga shot- for those who don't like taking down foes from close range with regular thundaga, This allows Cloud to shoot a orb of lightning at the nearest group of enemies shocking them before they get a chance to strike.
Dark Fission Firaga- another pre-emptive type attack spell it basically does the same as thundaga shot only with the spell's dark properties it can cause temporary blindness to all foes in fange and sear them with powerful dark flames.
Raging storm- with undying resolve spinning around three pillars of black and blue flames. no one can escape damage from this attack if Cloud reaches you. All the more dangerous as well because this spell enables movement as they stay in the same position relative to where Cloud is moving. (uses two command slots)
Passive: Scan- All of Renn's persona's has a pretty good hunch when an opponent is on their last legs.
Special Ability: Renn has 4 different command styles according to each of his personas
1.0: Spell blade- This command style is based upon which spell 1.0 uses going into the command style to determine and grants the user either an elemental or status-inflicting attack style as well as an increase in damage and combo extension, although not as powerful as the actual spell he used, it can be pretty useful depending on the spell 1.0 uses.
Deadpool: Random attack time!- As Renn 1.0's command is determined by the last attack that goes into the command style, Deadpool's is determined by the first command he uses (As long as it isn't a shifting command that shifts him to Renn 1.0). and just like Spellblade... The style changes for each status effect or element that Deadpool uses.
Angry Cloud: Blazing might- triggered when Renn does a physical style attack while in spellblade or when Deadpool uses dark haze in Random attack time, Cloud's abilities and natural defences are heightened even more than normal. This command style much like all the others that Deadpool and Renn use, his combos are extended by 1 strike as he is consumed by an aura that reflects the color of undying resolve, black and crimson tendrils snaking outwards from Cloud's body. The finale of this command style has him thrust his keyblade into the ground and three geysers of black and red lava erupt right in front of him (think Yuna's Hellfire from Dissidia 012)
Sad Cloud: Mystic hopelessness- Triggered when Renn uses warp in spellblade or when Deadpool uses any of his magical attacks in random attack time, Cloud's magical capabilities now rival Aqua's quite easily... his attack style is now more about precise strikes and hitting weak points with magic, He shoots off magical pearls at the end of combos which can disorient a target or a slew of other inconvenient situations in combat including blind, poison, and stop, and his finale has him spinning his keyblade around him very quickly outside of his grip and any foes caught in the finale are sent above Cloud's head then pierced by a magical dark blade that then slams them to the ground.
Renn 1.0: all of the commands and magic Renn uses swap him into control. The other commands that Renn doesn't have at the moment that can also swap him in are: Cure, Zero gravity, Magnet, Stop, Slow, Blind, Warp, Poison, Sleep, Bind, Fire dash, Fire surge, Sliding Dash, Stun edge, and Sonic blade.
Deadpool: Fire, Blizzard, Thunder, Aero, Thundara, Blizzara, Fira, Aerora, Wind raid, Treasure Raid, Spark Raid, Strike Raid, Slot edge, Quick blitz, Binding strike, Dark haze, Ignite, Mine Square, Mine shield, Seeker mine.
Angry Cloud: Zantetsuken, Chaos blade, Blitz, Brutal blast, Meteor crash.
Sad Cloud: Aeroga, Firaga, Thundaga, Blizzaga, Zero Graviga, Magnega, Dark Firaga, Triple Firaga, Triple Blizzaga, Deep Freeze, Mega flare, Firaga burst, Tornado, Time Splicer, Magnet Spiral, Trancendence
Other:
As 1.0 the text is Blue
As Deadpool, the text is Red,
Angry Cloud is Recognized with Maroon
Sad Cloud is Recognized with the color Navy
Voice actor: Johnny Yong Bosch- mostly because I can't get over how awesome his voice is in dissidia 012 as Firion, as well as Yu Narukami in Persona 4 and Persona 4 arena. He also has awesome range of tones for his voice roles and that suits well for Renn's multiple personalities.
1.0 sounds alot like Firion, Cautious, determined, but still brimming with youthful recklessness somewhat.
Deadpool also sounds like Firion only his qualities are flipped and that comes out as well think if Johnny tried to voice act that way... But Remember he's also friendly so I guess Firion works well for deadpool too.
Mad Cloud is angry yet focused so he sounds alot like Ichigo Kurasaki when he's fighting on the verge.
Sad Cloud almot seems drawn back into himself but his tone almost mirrors that of Sasori.
