Vane
Leader of the Awakened Association on Present — a pure Human AA-rank Awakened chosen for command, not the highest Gate level on Earth (Kaelen ranks higher). From January 2010 he is pulled into the Gu clan crisis: May intel, Feline rumors, estate inspections, and filings to Heaven that protect old friend Gu Feng as much as they obey the BC 500 pact.
Appearance
- Height: ~179 cm
- Hair: Dark blonde — sometimes slightly sweaty post-training under the suit
- Build: Fit — broad shoulders visible even through office clothes; office athlete read
- Grooming: Clean-cut, well-groomed
- Wardrobe: Sharp suit that cannot quite hide the frame underneath
- Presence: Energetic — battlefield-first body, desk-second costume
Personality
Very decisive on complex problems when the outcome serves the good of the Mortal World. Willing to sacrifice himself if the situation demands it. The Association is not always led by the strongest — he holds leader for command, not peak Combined rank.
Background
| Topic | Detail |
|---|---|
| Agency | Awakened Association created @ BC 500 to help humans recover after the pact |
| Policy | Gate response, Awakened registration, kill-on-sight on Divine Mandate |

Abilities
| Topic | Rule |
|---|---|

| Pact law | ~1% effective stats vs Angel bloodline in hostility — BC 500 suppression |
Relationships
Renard — operative; February surveillance + debrief — no Sariel report on Val's wings.
Gu Feng — Gu clan leader — old friend; symbol inquiry, estate apology, subsidiary filing that protects him.
Elias — Order of the Silver Cross Pope — very good relationship.
Sariel — Heavenly liaison @ AA office; receives curated divinity filings.
May — Intel on file (photos); Vane never met May personally.
