Profile

Introduction

영웅전설 여의 궤적

An agent for and aide in the CID's Integrated Analysis Division. He works under a competent superior, gathering intelligence alongside all the divided branches in accordance with the president's aims. Not only does he take care of large-scale problems, he also conducts reconnaissance on site. Throngs of female agents have been distracted by his wise and handsome looks and the consummately professional figure he cuts in his suit. He is surprised, but tolerant of his childhood friend Van's new line of work as a spriggan, and the two do not hesitate to take advantage of each other's positions. In contrast, he was the only one who supported his other childhood friend Elaine when she made the decision to become a bracer at the academy. Even after all this time, he still acknowledges her skills and supports her in her chosen field.

영웅전설 여의 궤적 II

An analyst with the Central Intelligence Department (CID)'s Integrated Analysis Division. He is an elite government official who exudes an aura of confidence, able to gather various intel and conduct on-site operations without a hitch, even among factional rivalries within his department. His work is so impeccable that even President Gramheart has taken a liking to him, in spite of René's future ambitions to enter the political arena himself someday. René has known Van and Elaine since childhood, and was something of a big brother figure to both of them during their time at Aramis Academy. Still, he never hesitated to use his status as Student Council President to drag them both along with him whenever the need arose. Having earned the trust of President Gramheart due to his CID work, he is privy to the details of whatever plan Gramheart is working on behind the scenes. It's unclear just what René's personal thoughts on the matter are, however.

영웅전설 계의 궤적

A member of the Republic's Central Intelligence Department and personal aide to President Gramheart, who regards him highly for his reliability in executing missions despite heavy caseloads and firm attitude even in the face of authority. He looks on childhood friends Van and Elaine's relationship with the same fondness an older brother would, and the three often mutually leverage each other's professional positions. With Project Startaker nearing its implementation phase and demanding more of the CID's resources, however, Kincaid struggles to maintain these personal ties.

Appearance

René is a tall young man with swept brown hair, silver eyes and and glasses. Kincaid leaves a stylish and competent impression with his well-ordered violet suit, which is complimented by his glasses, and he has many female colleagues who admire his smooth working demeanor. René uses a military pistol in combat.

Personality

René is an intelligent and pragmatic individual who is open to taking advantage of both his own and others’ positions in order to achieve his ends. He maintains a calm and analytical demeanour, is not easily unnerved, and is a very methodical agent capable of adapting to any course of action that is necessary, casually taking his time to gather information.

As the most senior of the between his childhood friends Van and Elaine, he has been able to watch over the other two from a unique position and has been subtly manipulating them to help them find happiness with one another. René seems to dislike being referred to by his first name and is not fond of Van’s tendency to call him that, insisting that Van refer to him by his surname.

René is not one to let the past weigh on him and is often very pragmatic when it comes to his personal life and relationships, never showing strong emotions or allowing them to interfere with his goals. He also holds great ambition toward becoming president one day.

Trivia

The topics covered include: the D∴G cult, Iscariot, The Dominion, the Gardens and Ouroboros. In a stream on the 27th August 2022, René's Seiyuu, Jun Fukuyama gave a live narration of another report for Van Arkride and Elaine Auclair.
