'''Character Voice:''' 

'''Character Backstory:''' Raneth’s people came from nothing, a race of former slaves who threw off the chains of oppression to take power and wealth from their rulers, who they naturally tortured and maimed in a glorious public spectacle. Having been raised in an environment where every inhabitant is haunted by memories of their past subjugation, Raneth is determined to acquire every possible advantage in order to keep himself on the winning side. To this end, he turned to vampirism, a transformation that has made him come to realize that there is no easy path to strength, no panacea for all his problems.

A keen student of the sword, Raneth has trained in martial arts since his youth and honed his skills in the treacherous wilds. He has a strong hatred for outsiders, as devils were the initial dictators responsible for the entrapment of his people and, more importantly, himself.
