“	See, getting so preoccupied with all that technology and science nonsense dulls your empathy with feelings.	”
–Ran, Canto IV: The Unchanging

Ran (Hangul: 란, Ran) is a member of the Technology Liberation Alliance, having previously been a researcher at K Corp., and is an antagonist in Canto IV: The Unchanging.

Appearance

Ran is a woman with brown skin, dark brown hair with dirty-blond highlights and crystal blue eyes. Her hair is shoulder length with messy bangs and a high ponytail tied with an orange-red hair tie.

Ran sports a black tank top, reddish-orange workpants with black and white stripes and black waist tie, held up by thick suspender straps of similar color and silver buckles. She loosely wears a K-Corp issued lab coat on her arms, exposing her shoulders and collarbone. The lab coat is heavily dirtied and a large, crudely painted red 'X' is drawn over K Corp's logo, signifying her joining with the Technology Liberation Alliance. Ran is also seen wearing white slippers and white and reddish-orange lab goggles above her forehead.

Personality

Ran is an intelligent, talkative woman who enjoys toying with others. She has a strong conviction in her anti-technology beliefs and was interested in science from a very young age, mentioning how she attended grad school thanks to winning an award on a paper she wrote about atoms, and speaks down to those who do not understand her perspective. Ran often encourages conversation between herself and the Sinners, despite being on opposing sides, as she feels that someone should do the talking. During these moments, Ran clearly enjoys the chances to express her opinions and toy with whoever she's speaking to. When talking with her companion Marile, Ran's remarks appear to be closer to friendly teasing rather than insulting, something supported by her close relationship with Shrenne.

Story

Ran was a Senior Researcher at K Corp. and Shrenne's mentor for a time before she became disillusioned with the corporation and technology as a whole. She left her position at K Corp. to join the Technology Liberation Alliance, where she informed Dongbaek of the truth of the Tearful Thing and the regeneration ampules made by K Corp. Shrenne and Ran stayed in touch through emails, as Shrenne's respect for Ran made her sympathetic to the Alliance's struggles. Using Shrenne as an informant, Ran and the Technology Liberation Alliance made plans to preform a series of terrorist attacks on K Corp..
