-  * Tries to feel as little as possible +  * Tries to feel as little as possible, in part because his feelings tend to be big and intense 
-  * At his core, Rain is a ravening black hole; he craves love, attention, affection, everything that comes with those, but only on his own terms; because that does not seem possible in his current situation or any reasonable time in the future, Rain transmutes this longing into materialism. He collects the trappings of wealth not because he specifically wants them, but to try to fill the emptiness inside of him+  * Stubborn, and holds to his own beliefs despite what he actually does or has to do

His good fortune blessings become more powerful the more he is fed
   * The hallmark abilities Rain's species is known for only benefit one person — the one who holds his pledge of loyalty. Once given, Rain cannot repudiate this pledge on his own without great effort, including regurgitating all treasure his pledge owner has fed him.

 +  * He was not on the market for long before he was acquired by Mizukami Hana and Wang Zhanyuan ( also known  as Jon Wang) for their Wuxing project, a magically bound collection of five individuals, each corresponding to a Wuxing element, for their sexual use
 +  * Initially, Rain was quite defiant despite the magical punishment, inured to suffering after years of abuse at the hands of his father, but this has been worn down into nihilistic acceptance of his circumstances over the years
 +  * When Hana first demanded his pledge, he refused, and continued to refuse for the first couple years of his bondage, but was eventually coerced into giving it to her after she began threatening other Wuxing members rather than Rain himself
 +  * Currently, Rain feels hopeless about his situation and the only thing that really matters to him is the well-being of those he cares about, namely his fellow Wuxing members
