Ren Dover

Ren Dover: Character Overview

Appearance

Ren Dover was born on March 14. He has jet-black hair, pale-white skin, and ocean-blue eyes. While his features are attractive, they aren't extraordinary, especially when compared to characters like Kevin or Jin. His face is relatively average, easily forgettable after a few days. However, his appearance undergoes several transformations throughout the story:

• Pre-Training: Initially skinny, Ren gains muscle through extensive training.
• Monolith Scar: He scars his face with deadly poison to prevent recognition, making him appear hideous.
• Recovery: After escaping the Monolith Headquarters, a high-grade potion restores his previous looks.
• Contract with Angelica: His facial features become sharper and his body more chiseled, making him more handsome.
• Limit Breaker: His hair turns white due to the power strain from using Limit Breaker.

Demonic Transformation

During his demonic transformation, Ren's body is covered in black scales, his skin emits a dark gas, and his eyes turn red.

Personality

Ren is intelligent, cunning, and shrewd. He is very cautious and tries to avoid drawing too much attention. He is deeply loyal to his friends and loves his family. His experiences in the Monolith Headquarters make him crueler and more sadistic. Initially, he views everyone as expendable pieces on a chessboard and often pretends to be someone he's not. However, after reuniting with his friends, he becomes more mature and self-aware. Ren loses the emotion of anger following the death of Smallsnake.
