Expect lots of [[World of Badass|Badass Tropes]].

 

 

=== Spirit Albarn ===

[[File:62588.jpg|frame]]

 

 

He is the Shinigami's current weapon and Maka's estranged but affectionate father. Maka's mother was his former meister, but she divorced him due to his constant flirting with other women.

* [[Morality Chain]]: To Stein, especially when they were students.

* [[Odd Friendship]]: He and Shinigami annoy one another quite frequently, but he ''does'' seem to care about his meister (e.g the Sanzu Lines business) and his role as Death Scythe. His friendship with Stein is also odd, but for other less-pleasant reasons.

* [[Overprotective Dad]]

* [[Redheaded Hero]]

* [[Sinister Scythe]]

* [[Talking Weapon]]

 

=== Justin Law ===

[[File:43720.jpg|frame]]

 

 

The Death Scythe in charge of Europe. His weapon form, the guillotine, fits his title of "executioner". He's usually seen wearing priestly garb and a pair of headphones that he keeps on at high volume. {{spoiler|In the manga he turns out to have been a spy for Noah and the Kishin, much to the shock of his former colleagues.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Blond Guys Are Evil]]}}: {{spoiler|And so is Justin.}}

* [[Blue Eyes]]

* [[Church Militant]]

* {{spoiler|[[The Dragon]]: Has effectively become one for Kishin Asura}}.

* {{spoiler|[[Scars Are Forever]]}}: {{spoiler|The scar he got when Tezca Tlipoca burned off half his face has stayed the same since it happened. Not particularly notable since that sounds reasonable, except for the fact that his ''eye has apparently been on fire since it happened.''}}

* {{spoiler|[[Slasher Smile]]}}: {{spoiler|He's relatively low-key until Chapter 69, when he starts busting out grins that threaten to split his head in half.}}

* [[Talking Weapon]]

 

=== Marie Mjolnir ===

[[File:32632.jpg|frame]]

 

 

The Death Scythe in charge of Oceania. Her weapon form is that of a large hammer, and her last name is derived from the legendary hammer of [[Norse Mythology|Thor]], Mjolnir. She wears an eyepatch with a thunderbolt insignia.

* [[Curtains Match the Window]]

* [[Drop the Hammer]]: In the anime, Marie attacks as a hammer. But wielded by Stein, her weapon form becomes a tonfa.

* [[Eyes of Gold]]

* [[Eyepatch of Power]]

* [[Morality Chain]]: Chosen specifically to be Stein's weapon when fighting the Kishin for her healing wavelength.

* [[No Sense of Direction]]: She's a Shibusen alumnus and it takes hours of trial and error for her to get anywhere.

* [[Ship Tease]]: With Stein.

* [[Talking Weapon]]

* [[Team Mom]]

[[File:32634.jpg|frame]]

 

 

The Death Scythe in charge of East Asia. She is bookish and analytical and is close friends with Marie. In weapon form she takes the form of a crossbow, able to fire high pressure spirit shots up to 10 km accurately. She is also an extremely competent information gatherer and tactician, easily finding one of Arachnophobia's labs.

* [[Meaningful Name]]: It's supposed to be a pun on the azusayumi, a type of Japanese bow (as in bow and arrow).

* [[Meganekko]]

* [[Perpetual Frowner]]

* [[Psychic Powers]]: She uses clairvoyance to scout enemy territories remotely.

* {{spoiler|[[Implacable Man]]: First he's seemingly killed by Noah, then he really dies fighting Justin, and now he's appearing in mirrors as some kind of twisted ghost thing. His dialog during this last time seems to imply that he could just come back to life if he found a new body, and may have done so before.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Killed Off for Real]]: Averted twice, though his physical body has been destroyed.}}

* [[Mask of Power]]: Subverted; not only does the mask not seem to serve any purpose, but it also makes it impossible for lip-reader Justin Law to understand him. Since they were apparently old friends, this means Justin hung around him for ''years'' [[Crowning Moment of Funny|without catching a single word he said]].

* [[Meaningful Name]]: "Tezcatlipoca" is the name of an Aztec god associated with mirrors. It literally means "Smoking Mirror" and the way it's separated, gives him his first name as "Mirror" in nahuatl.

 

=== {{spoiler|Soul Eater Evans}} ===

 

=== Tsar Pushka ===

* [[Gonk]]

* [[Made of Iron]]

* [[Mighty Glacier]]

* [[Talking Weapon]]

* [[Rainbow Motif]]

* [[Walking Shirtless Scene]]

 

=== Jingaran ===

 

* [[The Faceless]]

* [[Heart Symbol]]: The attack called [http://www.mangareader.net/soul-eater/95/24 "The Lovers."] Probably also an example of [[The Power of Love]].

* [[Our Genies Are Different]]: His [http://www.mangareader.net/soul-eater/92/20 Jinn form].

* [[Tarot Motifs]]: His different forms are loosely based on this.
