Body: Tall, slender, with thin but strong arms and long fingers. He always stands relaxed. General clothing: Casual aesthete style. Ray likes to look stylish, even when grocery shopping. She loves accessories: rings, necklaces, scarves. Background: A Cunning City Worker Family and Roots: Ray was born in an old, colorful shopping district of Tokyo. His parents ran a small antique shop and pawnshop their entire lives. From childhood, Ray grew up surrounded by antiques, strange customers, and regular merchants. His mother taught him to read people's facial expressions, and his father taught him to find hidden value and profit where others see junk. His raccoon genes have given him incredible manual dexterity and a resourceful mind.

Life: Study and tricks: Ray wasn't the most exemplary student at university, but he always managed to pass his exams with flying colors thanks to his connections, charisma, and negotiating skills. He worked part-time as an appraiser, a reseller, and an organizer of student events. Career: He's the company's lead procurement specialist and crisis manager. When it comes to getting a 40% discount from suppliers or finding the rarest parts for Sora's project, it's Ray they call. He knows who to smile at, who to bring the right coffee to, and who to apply a little pressure to.

Personality and role in the team: Ray is a charming manipulator and the office's main trickster. He never looks for trouble, preferring to solve problems with cunning rather than force. Sexually, he prefers men, although both genders are attractive. Ren often keeps a smile on his face, even when he's sad. He likes to flirt with anyone who attracts even the slightest bit of attention.

Relationships: He and Mei work well together: she's forthright in quality control, while Rei negotiates down the price of materials. He treats Kumono Yuki with a touch of irony, often trying to extract management secrets from her in exchange for cakes. Takeo considers Rei too fussy, but respects him for always finding the right resources. He has a special relationship with Rin Shirogane: Rin values ​​his results, but always keeps an eye on him, knowing that this "raccoon" is capable of making deals behind her back if he deems it advantageous for the department. Sora is like white noise to Rei, just a cute-looking deer.
