Claymore/Characters: Difference between revisions

The main protagonist of [[Claymore]].

------

* [[Dramatic Dislocation]]: Clare dislocates a shoulder during her training, and pops it back in by ramming her shoulder into a wall.

* [[Emotionless Girl]]: subverted. Clare only appears to be this.

** And that makes her a [[Sugar and Ice Girl]] by default.

* [[The Glomp]]: She does it to Teresa several times in the backstory.

Number 6.

------

* [[Badass]]

Number 22.

------

* [[Anti-Hero]]: Type II

Number 15.

------

* [[Death Seeker]]: Until she met Helen and got some sense knocked into her.

Number 3.

------

* [[Beauty Equals Goodness]]: C'mon, just ''look'' at her.

Number 4 at the beginning of the series, eventually replaced by Miata. Has some serious issues.

------

* [[Affably Evil]]: She's quite charming until she starts hacking your limbs off.

Number 9.

------

* [[Defiant to the End]]: After her other comrades were killed at the hands of Riful's torture, only Jean was left. Riful gives her one last chance to just give in and join her side. Jean's response?

* [[Glass Cannon]]: The Drill Sword is a very powerful attack, but since it requires a long setup Jean is basically a sitting duck while preparing and needs allies to distract her target.

* {{spoiler|[[Heroic Sacrifice]]}}

Number 14. One of the Seven Ghosts.

------

* [[Combat Medic]]

Number 31. One of the Seven Ghosts.

------

* [[Enemy Detecting Radar]]

Number 5, former Number 2. {{spoiler|Originally from a generation or two before Teresa's, made as part of an experiment to control an awakened being, eventually perfected with Alicia and Beth.}}

------

* [[The Exile]]: She was temporarily kicked out of the organization and sent to live as a hermit outside of towns surrounding the organization's headquarters, in order to {{spoiler|lessen the chance of her awakening after Luciela.}}

Former Number 1.

------

Former Number 2. <ref>until Priscilla showed up. In the anime, she's called Irene.</ref>

------

* [[Badass]]: Like nearly everyone else.

== '''Noel''' ==

------

== '''Sophia''' ==

------

Former Number 2.

------

* [[Badass]]: Yes, the majority of characters are this, but holy ''crap'' does she deserve special mention after the latest chapters! {{spoiler|By ''herself'', and ''without'' shifting to her Awakened form, she ''utterly dominates'' both Alicia ''and'' Beth, who ''are'' in their Awakened forms, and this is after the former has demonstrated that she is at ''least'' as powerful as Riful. Hot. ''Damn''.}}

Riful rules the western lands of the continent.

------

* [[Affably Evil]]: She really wants to be your friend, she's only torturing you horribly so you'll awaken and join her side.

Dauf is Riful's [[The Dragon|Dragon]] and her lover.

------

* [[The Brute]]

Isley is [[The Strategist]] who commanded the troops that slaughtered Pieta.

------

* [[Badass Long Hair]]

Isley's [[Number Two]] who led the attack on Pieta.

------

* [[Apologetic Attacker]]: Clearly finds his work distasteful and even apologies to the Claymores before engaging them.

Clare's handler, who assigns Clare her missions.

------

* [[Anti-Hero]] (Type IV or V)

One of the few important human characters in the claymore universe. He winds up becoming Clare's traveling companion.

------

* [[Armor Is Useless]]: Averted. Raki actually puts his armor, his gauntlets specifically, to good use when deflecting an attack from a yoma when he is reintroduced after the time skip.
