Rein Shroud

Rein Shroud (ラインシュラウド) is a beast tamer who was kicked out of the Hero's Party because the party members think he is dead weight as it was considered that tamers don't have offensive or defensive power to protect themselves. Not having remorse for leaving the party, Rein decided to make an adventurer to explore the world without any restrictions. On his first quest, he met one of the strongest races, Kanade, who comes from cat race. He is the main protagonist of Beast Tamer series.

Appearance
Rein is a tall, well-built, and cool-looking man. He has messy, ash grey hair along a black mesh with bangs in front of his forehead and green eyes, wearing a full white shirt with folded sleeves, a brown belt around his waist, which has a pouch for his ammunition or certain items, light green pants with the blazer tied around her waist.

He's been described as being a cute and handsome man by his contractuals.

Personality
As the sole survivor of his village, he is careful not to get carried away and become arrogant. As a result, he is extremely self-aware and humble but that leads him to become too much good person as he was unable to seek through motives of his former party members. He is a kind person, helping his friends and protecting his contractuals whenever needed. Even being kicked out of the party, he never stops aspiring dreams of becoming an adventurer, which shows his positive nature.

He is extremely tolerable even if he had been bad-mouthed by someone. However, he displays aggression and ruthlessness toward anyone threatening his friends. He is also prepared to risk his life for the sake of other people, such as when he saves a stranger from a group of thugs. According to Tania, his easily trusting nature can lead to trouble but it's a good trait since it made many people help out. When he sets his mind to a goal, he puts his all towards completing it. He will put himself on the line to protect others, even knowing it won't be in his own interest to do so and even if he doesn't actually want to do it. This is demonstrated when Arios tries to recruit him for help with the Lost Forest despite having kicked him out of their party. Rein clearly doesn't want anything to do with them, but Arios's party is trying to stop a threat to the entire world, so Rein agrees. Within the Lost Forest itself, Rein offers to help Sora even though she's already given them what they came for and they have no other reason to remain. Tania tends to chide him as being "too good of a person" because of this, while Kanade realizes it's due to Rein's village being destroyed in his childhood. He doesn't want to see someone else suffer that same kind of tragedy. This also caused him to earn the affection of his contractuals, as well as several others.

As a beast tamer, he already shown to defies the logic of the class. Rein himself seems oblivious to his own increased aptitude until Kanade points it out, and what's known of his past suggests his now-destroyed hometown was home to Beast Tamers of similar ability to his own.

Background
Rein was born in a village where special Beast Tamers gather. His parents were beast tamers. Ever since childhood, he loves playing with animals and birds, and therefore, he decided to become a beast tamer like his parents.

When he was twelve years old, his parents said that they were busy so they couldn't watch him practice. Nevertheless, Rein did practice thoroughly only then finding that his village was attacked by monsters and Rein's parents died in the action, leaving Rein as the sole survivor. Luckily, he was noticed by adventurers and started working in an adventurer's acquaintance's inn. And many years later, he met the Hero Party and decided to join the party in order to prevent a massacre happened like in his village.

As time went on, the hero and his members started being cruder and ultimately kicked him out of the party, beginning to accuse him of being worthless. Rein then decided to become an adventurer. He took the registration test on killing 10 goblins. He then finds someone's scream, running worriedly and only to find that a Killer Tiger cornering "someone". He decides to act on with his knife to attack it but its skin was so hard that the knife brokes up. Then, he was saved by Kanade who happened to come from Cat Tribe. Upon befriending him, Kanade asks Rein to tame her and Rein did so, much to his astonishment and surprise.
