“V•—¯ƒŠƒ“ Sky Wind Star Rin Natsuki Takahashi |

Rin Tenpuuse was eighteen years old when she moved to Japan as a college exchange student from China. That was her cover. The truth was she had come to Japan to be a Dairanger, summoned at the behast of Doushi Kaku, her uncle. She is a descendant of the Dai tribe. Of the Dairanger, she has the most powerful psychic senses. She also has deadly wind power! Is Doushi Kaku REALLY her uncle? I don't think he is, by blood. But then the way things were all so tied together in Dairanger, it's hard to say for certain. At the heart a gentle, kind soul, Rin was also terribly shy. We met only one friend she had at school, and this was a Japanese girl who ignored Rin's shyness to welcome her to Japan. Rin's Japanese was nearly perfect (being as how the actress probably doesn't speak any Chinese...) and though she had left China she was the person on her team who seemed to have the most attachments back home. For example there was her grandmother's little brother, Roudoshi (old Priest) Guhon. At first he embarrassed the heck out of her, however much she loved him. But he was the one who had designed the Dairanger's battle equipment and their suits which they summoned with the ki-spark of their will. Rin went into considerable shock when she found out he was engaged to be married... to a twenty-year old woman! Rin's strong kiryoku led her to have visions, as the blood of the Dai ran most smoothly in her veins. Even when she was most uncertain of herself, she would brave through anything. She faced the Lipstick Woman for the sake of her Japanese friend. She reassured Ryo when he was upset over losing to Jin. She helped Shouji out when there was a girl he had a terrible crush on. And though it was hard, she eventually allowed Ko to live with her, not knowing he was really the mysterious Kiba Ranger. She only knew he was probably an orphan, and an obnoxious one at that. When the 3 Stupid Gohma convinced Shouji to throw the baseball game, it was Rin who doubted their word. It was also she who brought out the big guns in the game, arriving at the plate dressed in a skirt which showed her thighs and rattled the Gohma pitcher thoroughly. She eventually took to mothering Ko more than tolerating him, loving the kid as he tended to grow on you. But then.... She met this handsome photographer one day while returning from shopping. Together they nursed an injured bird, and he convinced her to let him make her into an idol. Finding him gentle, attractive and intriguing, she agreed in order to spend as much time with him as she could. And she fell in love with him. Unfortunately, what she did not know was that he was really a Gohma sent to use her vanity to trap her, sent by Gara. But when he found out that she didn't do this for vanity, but rather for love of him, he was totally stunned. And he fell in love with her, which ended up costing his life. She swore she would never forget him, nor the short time they had together. |
