Editing Rain O'Fire Frazier (section)

==Appearance==
Rain is a Caucasian teenager with dark dirty blonde hair dressed in heavily used clothing,<ref name="">Another person had entered the room.  A boy, Caucasian, with shoulder-length brown-blond hair.  He had a cut under one eye and another cut on the bridge of his nose.  His jeans were ripped at the knee and his shirt was baggy, a size too big for him.  The sleeves were long, red where the torso was white, and they had been rolled up to the elbow.  His sneakers had seen a lot of abuse, by the looks of it.  The white parts were brown and grey in a way that made me suspicious that even a thorough cleaning wouldn’t get them purely white again.  He looked sixteen or seventeen.<br/><br/>“But yeah, damn, I don’t look good enough in a dress, so I have to concede.  Hey Rain,” Tristan said.<br/><br/>“Heya,” the boy who was apparently called ‘Rain’ said. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2017/12/23/flare-2-5/ Excerpt] from [[Flare 2.5]]</ref> and perpetually healing from different scraps and cuts. He keeps his long hair, per [[Mama Mathers|Mama's]] instructions.<ref name="I4cII e2">Her fingers traced his shoulder-length hair.  “I told you to grow your hair long, back then.”<br/><br/>“Yes, mama,” he said.<br/><br/>“Do you remember why?  Any boy of mine that does anything to catch my eye, good or bad,  I have them do it. [...] The girls know it, but the boys sometimes need to learn it.  I’m content to let either be my soldiers, but that requires ''zeal''.  Not everyone has it.  Not everyone cleaves to their role and position.  Everyone has responsibilities, and it takes a soldier to obey. [...] The hair is to remind you that if you won’t be a soldier for the families, we’ll have you be a ''slut''.  We’ll get children out of you.  If you fail at that, if they’re sickly or disobedient, we’ll geld you like we would any of the farm animals.” - [https://www.parahumans.net/2018/02/22/shade-interlude-4c/ Excerpt] from [[Interlude 4c II]]</ref> He later cut it short when he got the chance.<ref>Rain sat past the divider, facing down the tribunal.  He’d cut his hair. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2018/05/15/torch-7-1/ Excerpt] from [[Torch 7.1]]</ref><!--ref>Rain stood halfway up the staircase.  The boy was, like so much about this house, rough at the edges.  Small, old scars, an uneven line to the nose, hair short but not perfectly even, with just a bit of fuzz at his cheeks and chin, a hint of acne. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2020/01/11/infrared-19-b/ Excerpt] from [[Infrared 19.b]]</ref-->

[[Erin]], under considerable stress, compared him favorably to [[Wikipedia:Nicolas Cage|Nick Cage]] at the same age.<ref name="5d e7">Once I started thinking like that, I started thinking about how you looked nice. Kind of 90’s bad boy, with the long hair, ripped jeans and flannel, very Bender in Breakfast Club, except you’re way more attractive than Nick Cage.”<br/><br/>“You’re rambling, and-”<br/><br/>“I’m terrified,” she said. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2018/03/13/shadow-interlude-5d/ Exerpt] from [[Interlude 5d II]]</ref>

He was often visibly scraped and tired, to the point that [[Victoria]] thought it unusual to see him not looking beaten up.<ref>Rain walked up until he was beside me, double-tapping and removing the necklace that powered his identity, and setting the backpack with its heavy battery onto the table by the door as the second ‘skin’ fell away.  Now his ordinary scruffy self, he ran fingers through his snow-damp hair.  Odd, to see him with no visible scrapes or scuffs, no lines under his eyes.  He looked simultaneously younger and older.  He also, I noted, had a bit of stubble, and it wasn’t sixteen year old wannabe stubble.  His jacket was lighter than the weather warranted, but he wore multiple layers- a mix of clothes I’d seen him in before and new ones.  He met my eyes. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2018/11/03/polarize-10-4/ Excerpt] from [[Polarize 10.4]]</ref>

When operating as a cape he wore a raggedy, hooded costume with a metal mask like a robot.<ref name="I4b II e1"> - [https://www.parahumans.net/2018/02/13 Excerpt] from [[Interlude 4b II]]</ref> He later updated his mask to resemble a circuit-board, with glowing red lines, and acquired similar gloves.<ref>Sveta opened the door.  Rain and Swansong were putting their masks on.  Circuit-board face, with circuits cutting fissure-like zig-zags, gloves doing much the same, all black, with lines that glowed dully with a red light from within.  A slight change from before.  A hooded costume top covered his hair, which wasn’t new. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2018/11/06/polarize-10-5/ Excerpt] from [[Polarize 10.5]]</ref>

His first true 'hero' costume is silvery-white, decorated with glowing cracks and tinker attachments, with added toolkit and metal boots. It includes a hood and a mask like his previous costumes, though the circuit pattern that was previously on his mask is now a glowing crack.<ref>Rain was in costume, with a silvery-white hood and upper body to the costume, a glowing crack running through one of the eyes of his gunmetal mask and down to the edge near the cheek.  His mechanical forearms and hands, attached at the elbow, were smaller than his ordinary hands but still five fingered and dextrous, colored the same way as his mask, with finer glowing cracks running along them.  The lower body of the costume didn’t hug him, but it wasn’t quite ‘pants’ either.  Silvery-white panels, some devices and weapons, and decorative tinker attachments contrasted the darker material.  More of the decorative attachments joined the fabric to his metal boots, and bridged the divide between the upper and lower half of the costume. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2019/05/21/breaking-14-2/ Excerpt] from [[Breaking 14.2]]</ref>
