Reyn

Reyn (, Rein) is a playable character in Xenoblade Chronicles.

Appearance and personality
Reyn is a Homs with short and spiky red hair, brown eyes, and a tall muscular stature. His main appearance comprises an orange sleeveless shirt with metallic bracing, orange fingerless bracers, bulky grey pants, and grey boots.

Reyn is an emotional fighter whose self-appointed job is to protect his friends no matter what. He views himself as the one who should be taking hits so others don't have to, both on and off the battlefield, and tries to inject a positive attitude into almost any situation. He is not very clever and loses his temper a lot, but he is fully aware of this, and openly welcomes that others do the thinking for him. He might be constantly trying to get Shulk to see his side of a situation, but once Shulk makes a decision, he never questions it. Overall, he is proud of who he is including his shortcomings.

As a party member
Reyn is the first tank that the player obtains, with a simple playstyle that makes him useful in almost any situation. His tanking style is based on generating artificial aggro and taking minimal damage from attacks, so he excels in fights against large numbers of enemies with ether attacks.
