Renning was the crown prince of Crimea. He was defeated in the Daein invasion of Crimea and presumed dead; however, Renning survived, and was given the drug used to create Feral Ones, which broke his mind but increased his strength. He became a general of Daein under the name Bertram. He was stationed to guard Fort Pinell, but was defeated by the Crimean army under the leadership of General Ike.

After Bertram was defeated, Bastian secretly took him into his castle, but was unable to cure Renning. He hired Volke, who discovered Izuka was behind Renning's current condition, and kidnapped him; Izuka offered to create an antidote in exchange for his freedom, but Bastian refused, as he did not want to allow Izuka to roam free, and because the galdr of rebirth was a more reliable method. Reyson sang the galdr of rebirth, which he was able to do because of Ashera's awakening, and this cured Renning. Afterwards, Renning took up his sword, armor, and steed once more, and joined Ike's forces for the final assault against Ashera.
