PERSONALITY
ISFP | Hufflepuff
Ray does his best to come off as a cheerful person with few cares in the world. To those who are not obvservant, or even those that are, this can come off as the true Ray. However, Ray has formed a carefully constructed act to hide his true feelings, something that even his closest confidants struggle to look past. Behind the cheerful demeanor, Ray suffers from a lot of problems - such as his anxiety and grief as well as his own self hatered. He is particularly self concious about his appearance - specifically his weight - but he's easily able to convince the people around him that everything's okay until it becomes to much to bear and he breaks down on his own. He is prone to neglecting his health if not carefully monitored during low points in life - which aren't uncommon.
Ray is a very private person and tends to keep to his friend group for the most part. He is, however, not afraid of reaching out to others in need. In fact, he tends to put others before himself and can adopt a very comforting manner when his younger friends have problems. When he is with those friends, he often can forget about most of his problems and smile and have fun the chaotic group.
HISTORY
Born as the third child of Anna Marie and Louisa Seidel, Ray's life seemed to be doomed to have issues right from the start. Anna Maria, his sire and child of Grine, had a strange family history of medical conditions that even a God's blood couldn't combat. Ray eventually was diagnosed as diabetic at a young age.
As a child, he was quite shy and preferred to keep to himself, until he met Kuno and Renata, two kids younger than him, who asked him to play with them. For a few years, it was just the three of them, as they didn't seem to make many other friends at school. However, in then 2nd grade, this all changed when Tsubasa Amanogawa was in Ray's class after being held back a year. Tsubasa quickly decided to befriend Ray, and they hit it off. Ray learned that, though he was Japanese, Tsubasa had been born and raised in Berlin.
After a while, Ray decided to take Tsubasa to meet Kuno and Renata. However, there was a third person with them, who just happened to be Tsubasa's cousin! Rin Kusayanagi was put in Renata and Kuno's class and they had reached out to befriend him. From then on, the five were inseparable.
Ray was the tallest of his friends for a good while, while Tsuabsa, despite being the oldest, was the shortest. This caused them to have a playful rivalry when Ray's personality matured into more of a goofball. Tsubasa gave Kuno, Renata, and Ray silly nicknames that persisted many years.
Unfortunately, around Ray's 17th birthday, his older brother, Emmerich, died at 19 due to his condition. Later that year, Em's twin Johanna, died due to hers. This resulted in Ray becoming even more overly cautious with his diet, as well as resigning himself to an early grave. Due to them dying in hospital care, as well as their already sickly natures, Ray and his younger sister Magdalene, or Leni, developed an intense phobia of anything medical.
