Character: Ragna the Bloodedge
Fandom: Blazblue
Character Notes:
Height: 6'1"
Weight: 172 lbs.
Blood Type: B
Birthday: March 3rd
History: Originally, Ragna, his brother Jin, and his sister Saya lived together as orphans in an old church. They lived fairly well together, however, as Saya had contracted a disease, Ragna began to pay more attention to her than to Jin, which ignited his jealousy, which would make things... interesting between the two from there on out.
Anyway, Ragna had left the church one day in order to fetch some water for the others, contemplating how he was going to surprise Jin with something, since he hadn't been playing with him lately on account of Saya's condition. But what he found when he returned was nothing short of disaster. The church was burning, Saya was nowhere to be found, and a smiling Jin was standing outside the burning building.
Ragna tried to get some answers out of his brother, but the next thing he knew, he was on the ground, screaming and writhing in pain – as it was that his right arm had been cut off. He slipped in and out of consciousness for a while, only to be approached by a figure he would later know as Rachel Alucard. She offered to help him out and bit him, turning him into a dhampir as well as awakening his darkness-affiliated abilities.
After finding out about the fact that Saya was kidnapped and was being cloned for her abilities, Ragna swore to himself to destroy every last clone as well as every branch of the Novis Orbis Librarium as a result.
Fast forward a few years and we have the Ragna of today – he's now a SS-class criminal wanted for the destruction many of the Librarium's branches, and he's well on his way to destroying more. The fragment of the Azure that he has is now permanantly part of his body, taking the form of his right arm - however, it's pitch-black, and he usually keeps what looks like wards on it, if his younger sprites in Story Mode show. ... or something like that.
Personality: If there's one word to describe Ragna, it's reckless. He often rushes into situations without thinking about them first, and it tends to end poorly for him in the end. He's overly aggressive at times, especially where certain triggers and/or people are concerned. His reckless and impulsive nature also doesn't seem to help him when he's supposed to be incognito in order to stay under the bounty hunters' radar – he somehow tends to draw the attention of those he doesn't want to meet, though if he actually tried, it would be a bit more difficult for them to pick up on. He's also fairly blunt when it comes to talking, which also means he has a tendency to curse.
A lot.
But he's not really that bad of a guy once you get to know him – he was nice enough to let Taokaka eat with him at one point when she was hungry, and he spares Arukane in one story path – even though the creature was causing trouble for everyone else.
Hilariously enough, he just considers his criminal label as nothing more than a hindrance, getting more irritated than anything when it's somehow brought up. (Though it is funny when he comments about it during his “humorous ending” with Taokaka, where he says something along the lines of “After all the crap I did, I'm not getting arrested for dine-and-dash!”)
Another amusing thing is the fact that Ragna hates ghosts. Nobody know exactly why that is, bue he tends to stiffen up and get worried whenever it's mentioned.
Powers: Ragna is considered to be the Sol Badguy of the Blazblue universe for good reason. partially thanks to his damphir powers (Blame Rachel for that one) and the fact that he possesses the Azure Grimoire, a very powerful Armagus. In the Blazblue world, Armagus such as the Grimoire are extremely powerful magical weapons. However, unknown to most of the cast and Ragna himself, the Grimoire that he possesses is merely a fragment of an imitation, which, when coupled with that of v-13's, would awaken the Black Beast, a monster that had plagued the world in the past. [this is where shit gets convoluted with the timeloop and everything, but getting back on-topic-]
Most of Ragna's abilities center around darkness, and most of his special attacks have the ability to sap some life from the opponent, mostly thanks to the Blood-Scythe he carries. Oddly enough, in some cases, he seems to be able to summon a demonic-looking creature with some of his dark attacks, although if that's an actual summon or just his energy manifesting in that form is up to debate. Ragna can also transform his entire body into darkness in order to attack.
Using the imitation Grimoire, Ragna can also enter a state called Blood Kain, which allows for him to gain substantial increases in speed and attack power, but at the cost of sapping his own energy away, which makes it crucial for him to hit his opponent in order to at least gain some of his energy back.
He was trained by one of the Six Heroes of old, Jubei, who is considered to be one of the strongest individuals on the planet - so to say that Ragna has considerable swordfighting ability is fairly accurate.
Weapons: Ragna's main weapon of choice is the aforementioned Blood-Scythe, which usually sits in a sword-like form. When he activates it, however, it shifts into an actual scythe, and he is able to more effectively steal life from his opponents.
