Eleanor Ran

About
Eleanor Ran was one of the apprentices of Ragishss, and was known as one of the Four Witches of Kathtom, specializing in illusion, possession, and sword-mastery. Cruel and lewd due to the ring's power, but she's actually very shy and kind when the curse removed.

Personality and Appearance
She lives with a strong sense of duty and responsibility. She's a very old fashioned girl who believes in having sex only with the one you marry.

Under the spell of the Ring of Feel, she was turned into a sadistic, cruel and even lewd person. However, her true personality is the meekest, most responsible person out of the four. She is kind to others, and strict to herself.

After coming to her senses, she feels guilty of what she has done. Ever since then, she has been working hard for the city of Kathtom.

She does however have a bad habit of keeping everything to herself, and think negatively of situation. In Kichikuou Rance, this trait of her makes her suicidal when she is forced into Rance's harem.

She has a long red hair and usually wears formal suits, she probably took that habit after she became a mayor but she's still seen in formal clothes when adventuring.

Abilities
She is a capable spellblader, which is a very rare talent in The Continent, being adept with illusion magic, as well as the sword. In Rance 02 she was capable of throwing people into illusions and made them lose control of their senses with just crossing eyes, which forced Bird to close his eyes when fighting her. However, said strategy left him vulnerable since he was oblivious to her skill with the sword and she could cut off his arm in an instant.

While her magic and swordplay are nothing particularly impressive she's definitely proficient enough with both to be considered a considerable threat for any fighter with experience on his back. She has a pretty good cap of 30 and her current level is 15, since she weakened after becoming a mayor and attending mostly office paperwork.

Appearances

She is the one responsible for cutting Bard's left arm.

In the later events, she got defeated by Rance in a fair sword-fight, mainly due to her eye's inability to possess Rance at all. Following her defeat and "rescue", the possession of her ring is lifted, and she becomes her usual timid self.

To repent what she and her comrades ever done to Kathtom, Eleanor becomes an employee in the office to cover the reconstruction of town by borrowing money from Leazas.
