History Characters / BlackButlerCielsRelativesAndAssociates

* PlotTriggeringDeath: His death at hands of the evil cult what caused Sebastian to come to the human world and convince Ciel's brother to make a contract with him.

* AnimeHair: Those drilled Mega Twintails can't possibly be achieved in real life without lots of curlers and hair gel. As Lizzy's hair seems to be [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kuroshitsuji_2425435.jpg naturally straight]], it isn't possible without several curlers for her, as well.

* BadassFamily: The Midford family is made of master swordsmen and knights who protect England (and presumably the other two countries that make up Great Britain). Everyone receives harsh training, including Lizzie herself.

* BreakTheCutie: Crossed with JerkassRealization, LoveHurts, and YouShouldHaveDiedInstead. Ever since she found out [[spoiler: the Ciel she has been hanging out with stole his twin's identity and the Real Ciel is in an undead state,]] Lizzy completely loses her cheerful demeanor, looks deeply hurt, and is plagued by self-loathing. It gets worse when she admitted to Edward that she initially blamed [[spoiler:Our Ciel for impersonating her fiance and toying with her emotions, but she then had a horrible realization - if Our Ciel told her family that his twin brother was dead, they would have wished he, the sickly twin who was mostly isolated from the earldom, was dead and his brother was still alive.]] She is absolutely horrified at the mere possibility that she is the sort of person who could have thought something like that. [[spoiler:Realizing that the basis of her relationship with Our Ciel was an act and her bond with the Real Ciel the result of an ArrangedMarriage, she declares that her love for both twins is fake]].

* ItsAllMyFault: After [[spoiler:Our Ciel and Sebestian's arrest,]] Lizzy blames herself that she fails to [[spoiler: recognize the Ciel she been with for 3 years was not the real Ciel.]]

* MoralityChain: Lizzy's entire reason for existence seems to be a LoveMartyr who keeps Ciel from falling into the abyss, both emotionally and physically.

* PluckyGirl: Crossed with ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend. It isn't obvious at first, but Lizzie eventually reveals a brave side who is determined to face ANY DANGER to protect Ciel.

* SharedFamilyQuirks: Would you believe her ''father'' is as overaffectionate?

* SkewedPriorities:
** Lizzy, honey, the cake is not that important, especially when your fiancé has a gun out and there are zombies running about. ''Really''. Neither is the [[{{Kawaiiko}} cute dress or demeanour]] as a whole. Ciel briefly chastises her for this, which shortly leads into CharacterDevelopment and TookALevelInBadass for [[DeliberatelyDistressedDamsel Elizabeth]].

* ActionHero: Like the rest of the Midford family, Edward is a MasterSwordsman. He fights at their side at the Campania arc.

* ActionHero: Like the rest of the Midford family, Alexis is a MasterSwordsman. He fights at their side at the Campania arc.

* {{Keet}} : Crossed with SharedFamilyQuirks. Would you believe he is as overaffectionate as his daughter?

[[quoteright:155:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/PaulaProfile2_2483.png]]

* {{Meido}}: She works as Elizabeth's personal maid.

* BewareTheNiceOnes: The red-dressed, haired and eyed aunt of Ciel who sees him as her surrogate son? She's half of Jack the Ripper, punishing prostitutes for requesting abortions while she can't have kids because of an accident that also killed her husband; the other half being her seemingly-stupid but actually highly competent "butler" Grell Sutcliff.

* TheReveal: ''Several''.

* AcquiredPoisonImmunity: [[spoiler:She's unaffected by a tranquilizing dart, with the only reply she gives is that "opium works even better".]]

* {{Protectorate}}: To Ciel, at first. He once threw himself in front of a {{bear|sAreBadNews}} for her and did whatever he could to make sure she was safe from a ship load of [[EverythingsDeaderWithZombies zombies]].It is lampshaded in chapter 58 she even stated that her goal was to become a wife Ciel could protect. Then she decided to change into a wife who can protect Ciel.

Ever since she found out [[spoiler: the Ciel she been hanging out with stole his twin's identity and the Real Ciel is in an undead state,]] Lizzy completely loses her cheerful demeanor, looks deeply hurt, and is plagued by self-loathing.

[[spoiler:Realizing that the basis of her relationship with Our Ciel was an act and her bond with the Real Ciel the result of an ArrangedMarriage, she declares that her love for both twins is fake]].

* MySisterIsOffLimits: Edward loudly opposes Lizzy and Ciel´s ArrangedMarriage.

* BoobsOfSteel: She possesses strength that rivals and/or surpasses Finnian's without having gone through the injections and has breasts larger than Mey-Rin's.

* ImportantHaircut:
** She used to have longer hair before she started killing people. She cut it after she got it stained with the blood of her victims.
** An earlier one, where she used to have long bangs [[PeekABangs to hide her face in]] and then cut her bangs once Vincent said he liked her red hair.

* AdaptationalHeroism: When the first anime adaptation diverges from the manga the Undertaker's character does as well. He's a Grim Reaper in both, but in the first anime, he's simply retired whereas in the manga, he's a renegade. The first anime plays him up as a BunnyEarsLawyer who comes to help in stopping Ash whereas the manga plays him as a NotSoHarmlessVillain who edges closer and closer to being a central antagonist.

* {{Bishonen}}: The mangaka Yana said he is the most handsome man in Kuroshitsuji. Hear that, Sebastian?

* EyeObscuringHat: He sometimes wears his hat in this manner.

* LongHairedPrettyBoy: Maybe not necessarily when he's dressed the way he usually does, but definitely when he's in shinigami form. So much so that when Grell saw what his face really looked like in the anime, she was completely enamored by his looks.

* ContraltoOfDanger: In the ''Book of Atlantic'' film, Creator/YukariTamura drops the cutesy high-pitched voice when Lizzie reveals herself as an ActionGirl, changing it for a deeper voice.

* NiceGuy: Described as an 'honest and pure man who treats [Angelina] very well'. Most notably, he knew Angelina loved another man (namely Vincent) more than she loved him and was completely fine with it.
* OnlyOneName

[[quoteright:265:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/undertaker_film.png]]

->"''Because you hold great power, you gradually fail to understand the importance of things that cannot be recovered. You will realize once it's too late.''"

A funeral director in London who has acted as an informant to the Phantomhive family for many years.

* AbsurdlySharpBlade: As with every Grim Reaper, his Death Scythe can cut through anything except for other Death Scythes. When combined with his [[SicklyGreenGlow green energy]], he can cut the local Titanic {{Expy}} in half in an instant.
* AdaptationalHeroism: When the first anime adaptation diverges from the manga the Undertaker's character does as well. He's a Grim Reaper in both, but in the first anime, he's simply retired whereas in the manga, he's a renegade. The first anime plays him up as a BunnyEarsLawyer who comes to help in stopping Ash whereas the manga plays him as a NotSoHarmlessVillain who edges closer and closer to being a central antagonist.
* AmbiguouslyEvil: Not outright evil, but certainly not on the [[AntiHero good guys' side]], either.
* BadassLongRobe: Full of grave markers that may as well be spears.
* BadassPreacher: Well, if said priest was also a J-Rocker. He's wearing the collar in any case.
* BeautifulAllAlong: In chapter 59 of the manga he finally sweps his hair back and reveals himself as one hell of a {{Bishonen}}. Cue the fangirls squee, of course.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: He's a ridiculous {{Cloudcuckoolander}} who demands payment in jokes. He's also [[spoiler:a highly trained shinigami]], and as such can be extremely dangerous when he wants to be.
* {{Bishonen}}: The mangaka Yana said he is the most handsome man in Kuroshitsuji. Hear that, Sebastian?
* BlindSeer: He tells Grell and Ronald that they're novices if they're "still using their eyes to see," implying that he's just as near-sighted as them but has found a way to move past relying on his vision.
* BlindWeaponmaster: As a Grim Reaper, he's supposed to have very poor vision. This doesn't appear to be an inconvenience to him since he can wield his SinisterScythe and single-handedly take on Sebastian, Grell and Ronald at the same time. And Undertaker had the upper hand the entire fight.
* CheshireCatGrin: His default expression is a wide grin that makes it look like he's always amused.
* CreepyGood: In the beginning of the series at least, and in the first two seasons of the anime. As of Chapter 60, not so much considering [[ZombieApocalypse what's he up to]] in that arc though he still appears to [[PetTheDog care about Ciel.]]
* DrivenToSuicide: He's a Grim Reaper, meaning he was a human who killed himself.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: [[spoiler:Whatever connection he must have with Ciel's grandmother is unknown, but part of the reason why the Undertaker revived the real Ciel is because he didn't want to lose anymore Phantomhives, showing that he cares about the family rather deeply. Doesn't stop him from helping the true Ciel ousting Our Ciel as a liar and framing him for the Blue Cult murders, though.]]
* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: Even the fellow reapers only call him the "Undertaker". His true name has yet to be revealed.
* EyeObscuringHat: He sometimes wears his hat in this manner.
* FemmeFatalons: He is a male example with his long, painted black fingernails and progressively villainous role.
* FlashStep: Displays this when posing as [[spoiler: Weston's Principal]]. Sebastian himself failed to catch him.
* ForTheEvulz: Morbid laughs are the only reason he does anything; in most settings, this would be classified as ItAmusedMe, but given the EvilVersusEvil of the setting and the fact The Undertaker is responsible for the zombie outbreak going on just because he thought it'd be funny to see what happened if he helped an idiot scientist reanimate corpses, the Undertaker's amusement can be seen in a rather negative light.
* GoodScarsEvilScars: It's as if his skull's had to have been stitched back together... and maybe it ''has.''
* HiddenAgendaVillain: The explanation he gives Ciel during the Atlantic arc is filled with AmbiguousSyntax and possible [[DoubleMeaning Double Meanings]], with things like "'''At first''' (my motive) was curiosity," and "'''Those people''' wanted to test (the bizarre dolls)."
* ImprobableWeaponUser: He wields a set of eleven ''sotoba'', wooden grave markers with inscriptions written on them, using them as both melee and thrown weapons. Ten of the ''sotoba'' are able to be destroyed, but the last can't, even by a Grim Reaper's scythe - because, as he reveals when he gets serious, it is his own SinisterScythe in disguise.
* InSeriesNickname: He was nicknamed "Silver Fox" by Othello because his Grim Reaper registration number was too long.
* InhumanEyeConcealers: In the first few arcs, his eyes are covered by his long bangs. During "Book of Atlantic", we discover he was hiding his phosphorescent green eyes, [[MarkOfTheSupernatural which mark him as a Grim Reaper]].
* JustToyingWithThem: During the first half of his fight against Sebastian, Grelle, and Ronald, he wields only a set of eleven slowly decreasing ''[[ImprobableWeaponUser sotoba]]'' as weapons, with ten normal grave markers and one unbreakable one which he juggles around, and he mostly acts defensively with his natural abilities - and even then, he ''still'' is delivering a CurbStompBattle. When he stops holding back as much, the eleventh ''sotoba'' transforms into his [[SinisterScythe Death Scythe]], which he's ''much'' more aggressive with, and he augments his actions with massive blasts of [[SicklyGreenGlow green energy]]. Even then, he's not at full power, as he's [[BlindWithoutThem a Grim Reaper]] fighting without glasses - though he implies that the fifty years of inactivity has made him able to fight without good vision.
* KnowledgeBroker: Unusual example, as he trades laughter for information. As in, you have to make him laugh before he tells you anything.
* LogicalWeakness: He might be much stronger and deadlier when wielding his proper Death Scythe instead of wooden grave markers, but if his attention is drawn elsewhere, then someone can get inside of his guard and catch him flatfooted. Somewhat averted, as he's acrobatic enough to disengage from such a situation, so the window of opportunity is small.
* LongHairedPrettyBoy: Maybe not necessarily when he's dressed the way he usually does, but definitely when he's in shinigami form. So much so that when Grell saw what his face really looked like in the anime, she was completely enamored by his looks.
* MarkOfTheSupernatural: His phosphorescent green eyes are proof that he's a rogue Grim Reaper.
* MementoMacguffin: There's the question of why one of the funeral lockets (which Undertaker calls "his most prized possession") belonged to Ciel's grandmother.
* MysticalWhiteHair: Like the hat it blocks his face and is reminiscent of an [[Myth/CelticMythology Ankou]].
* {{Necromancer}}: While working as a grim reaper, he started to wonder if there was a way of reviving humans after their life records reached their ends. He found a way by "editing" the records and adding new film stock at the end, which successfully reanimates the corpse, but doesn't restore the soul. First, he created the Bizarre Dolls which are normal mindless zombies that eat living humans due to being attracted to their souls. Later, he found a way to make the Bizarre Dolls more humanlike by adding FakeMemories to the end of their records which simulate the lives they wished they had if they haven't died. The process is still far from perfect, but Undertaker's new Bizarre Dolls are getting closer to fully resurrected humans.
* {{Necromantic}}: His creation of and experiments with the Bizarre Dolls were an attempt to [[spoiler:find a way to bring the real Ciel back to life]]. Why? [[spoiler:He didn't want to lose more of the Phantomhive family.]]
* NighInvulnerability: He got attacked by Grell's chainsaw Death Scythe but it had no effect because he's a shinigami.
* NightmareFetishist: Quite a few different examples, including cooing over how nice a corpse looks with its cuts and [[TooKinkytoTorture allowing Grell to bury him in epsom salts and smiling about the sensation of moisture leaving his body.]] Justified in that he's a Shinigami in the anime, and later in the manga, as well.
* NoSenseOfPersonalSpace: He tends to get a little too close for Ciel's comfort.
* NotSoHarmlessVillain: He reveals himself to be much nastier than the slightly creepy PerkyGoth everyone was used to. A ton of recently murdered (read: [[NightOfTheLivingMooks eaten]]) ship passengers should drive the point home. And he took on Grell, Ronald, and ''Sebastian'' at the same time and ''won effortlessly''.
* PerkyGoth: He dresses in black clothes and works with corpses, but he's playful and always looking for a good laugh. He can get serious when the situation calls for it, though.
* PerpetualSmiler: He's never seen without a smile on his face.
* TheReveal: ''Several''.
** A flashback in Chapter 32 shows him seated with the former Earl of Phantomhive's gang. This doesn't get a followup until ''Chapter 85''.
** He was the one who created the Bizarre Dolls for kicks, setting off the whole Campania story arc.
** The Principal who escaped from Sebastian so quickly that only his clothes were left? Yeah, that was him too. He took the job ''after'' he helped the P4 hide a few bodies.
** And probably the most important: He's a Shinigami, and an incredibly powerful one at that - so much so that William has a bit of a freak-out when he realizes who the hell this guy is.
** He is the one who [[spoiler:brought the real Ciel Phantomhive BackFromTheDead]].
* {{Shinigami}}: He's a renegade shinigami; apparently the fact he alone of the Shinigami we've seen so far doesn't wear glasses is a ''very bad sign''.
* SinisterMinister: Or at least wearing the collar of one.
* SinisterScythe: So far, the only Shinigami to use a ''real'' scythe. Decorated with bones, AbsurdlySharpBlade and all. He uses said Death Scythe to cut the ''Campania'' in two.
* TakeOurWordForIt: We never find out what Sebastian did to make Undertaker laugh.
* TooKinkyToTorture: Again, only in the anime.
* {{Undertaker}}: He is [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Exactly What It Says On His Nametag]]; the undertaker.
* WalkingSpoiler: Sure, we can talk about ''some'' stuff about this guy, but trying to explain him beyond the "silly Undertaker who enjoys jokes at other people's expense and has a morbid store with a just as morbid sense of humor" would require copious amounts of spoiler tags. Just look at his various tropes here.
* WhatBeautifulEyes: In the anime, Grell brushes out his bangs and is charmed by his eyes. She immediately asks him to make love to her.
* WhiteHairBlackHeart: He has long silver hair and becomes a recurrent antagonist starting from the Campania arc where he fills a cruise ship with zombies.
* YouAreNumberSix: In his days as a Grim Reaper, he was only known as "#136649" as he was the only one who didn't use his name from when he was human.

* CannotTellAJoke: Like Madam Red, Lau tries to pay the Undertaker's fee. His joke is rather bland but failed through a rushed delivery.

* DarkAndTroubledPast: A flashback in the anime shows that he lost his family during the Opium Wars. First he's seen walking with his sister when the English show up, and then shown holding her ''severed arm.''

* PerpetualSmiler: Crossed with PsychoticSmirk. A smile that can be threatening or docile.
* PrettyFreeloader: Lau has made numerous appearances, despite Ciel only requesting his service a couple of times.
* SchrodingersButterfly: Frequently references the story of Zhuangzi in the anime.
* TokenEvilTeammate: Subverted: Among the Ciel's allies, Lau is the most overtly criminal with ties to the criminal world, dealings in opium and other gang related activities. However, as the series goes on, the audience learn that they all have the same questionable moral fiber as Lau does.

->"''Glad... you're safe.''"

Lau's personal assassin. She's referred to as his sister, although they're not blood related.

* AcquiredPoisonImmunity: [[spoiler:She's unaffected by a tranquilizing dart, with the only reply she gives is that "opium works even better".]]
* AnimalMotifs: Ran-Mao's name translates to "blue cat" in Chinese, Lau refers to her as his cat and her hairstyle resembles cat ears.
* AnimeChineseGirl: She dresses in a UsefulNotes/{{qipao}}, has odango hair, fights using [[StockWushuWeapons chui]] and works as the personal assassin of the top official of a Chinese syndicate.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: Her cuteness and her naivety make for some truly hilarious moments but don't get the wrong idea about her, she's far from harmless.
* BoobsOfSteel: She possesses strength that rivals and/or surpasses Finnian's without having gone through the injections and has breasts larger than Mey-Rin's.
* BraidsOfAction: Her hair is arranged in thin braids coming out of her odango hair and she's a deadly assassin.
* TheComicallySerious: When she was going through Irene Diaz's possessions, she tried to wear a pair of bloomers as a hat, all with the same expressionless face she always has.
* CuddleBug: She is always seen clinging on Lau's arm.
* CuteBruiser: While she looks cute, she's a trained martial artist who packs a powerful punch.

* FlowersOfFemininity: Her hair is ornamented with a pink peony and is a quite beautiful AnimeChineseGirl.
* FullFrontalAssault: [[spoiler:Ran Mao destroys the secret underground faculty completely naked.]]
* FunnyForeigner: She apparently has no knowledge whatsoever of the Western world, leading to some comedic antics from time to time.
* JackBauerInterrogationTechnique: [[spoiler:When the Baron Chris Heathfield calls her to her room at night, Ran-Mao takes no shit of his lies and seduction attempts, demanding him to tell her where the missing maids are. She mercilessly punches the womanizer over and over, breaking his nose and teeth. But when he was about to speak the truth, his own mercenary maid knocks out Ran-Mao... for about five minutes before Ran Mao puts the maid in a rear-naked choke.]]
* MagicSkirt: Subverted in one episode where she tried to herself as a distraction to get Sebastian to hold still for a picture. Subverted in that viewer doesn't get to see anything.
* MinidressOfPower: She almost always wears a short qipao dress and is every bit as combat capable as any major woman in the series.
* MsFanservice: She's an AnimeChineseGirl wearing form-fitting Chinese dresses that emphasize her large breasts and long legs; a way of dressing that would be scandalous in the Victorian setting. She's also the only character who has been shown fighting in the nude.
* NervesOfSteel: Not even acting as bait for a poisonous snake or going head to head against Sebastian in a fight will shake her.
* NoFullNameGiven: Like Lau, no one has ever mentioned Ran-Mao's full name.
* TheQuietOne: She very rarely speaks. It's possible she doesn't know much English.
* SatelliteCharacter: Her role is summed up to Lau's lapdog for the most part. She follows his orders and only takes action according to them. We also don't know any personal information about Ran-Mao other than her being Lau's "sister".
* ShamelessFanserviceGirl: Unlike other women raised in the Victorian era, like Mey-Rin, or the Qing dynasty, Ran-Mao has no problem with walking around in an extremely short dress that exposes her legs. She also engages in a FullFrontalAssault with no concern.

* SugarAndIcePersonality: While her face doesn't show her emotions, her loyalty and affection for Lau are obvious.

----
* DefeatMeansFriendship: Back when he and Vincent were members of the P4 in Weston College, Diedrich's team lost to Vincent's team in the cricket tournament and Vincent made Diedrich become his loyal fag for life.
* FormerlyFit: He was a handsome man with a fit body a few years ago. Some time after Vincent died, Diedrich gained a lot of weight.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He's grumpy, short-tempered, and abrasive, but he was a trustworthy friend to Vincent and will help his friend's son when he needs him.

* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: [[spoiler:He betray Ciel by telling Randall to tell him where Ciel and the others went, and Pitt is quick to inform him that they are fleeing through the waterway.]]
* OnlyOneName: Many people refers him as Pitt, but it's unknown what's his full name is.

* CheshireCatGrin

* NoListeningSkills: Elizabeth isn't a very attentive listener, which often causes problems, much to Ciel's annoyance. I'm her introductory appearance, she refuses to listen to him when he tries to object to the idea to organize a dance party and inviting him to dance, despite her adversion. When she complains about using his blue ring the party, Ciel explains it is a heirloom item, but she didn't listen until the end, claiming she was kidding and snatching the ring away. She even refused to give it back when he told her to, instead she breaks it in a fit, which provokes Ciel's ire.

* DrivenByEnvy: She envied the pregnant prostitutes who came to her clinic for abortions... [[InsaneTrollLogic so she]] [[KillEmAll killed them.]]

* OutdatedOutfit: By about thirty years, if not more, as has been the case for most of the feminine fashions in the manga and anime alike. Most of Lizzie's dresses look like they belong in the 1840s, '50s or perhaps early '60s, not 1889, [[CriticalResearchFailure but a lot of them just plain are not Victorian]].

* ShesGotLegs: Her qipao let us appreciate her long, toned legs.

* AbsurdlySharpBlade: As with every Grim Reaper, his Death Scythe can cut through anything except for other Death Scythes. It's taken UpToEleven when combined with his [[SicklyGreenGlow green energy]], as with it, he can cut the local Titanic {{Expy}} in half in an instant.

* NighInvulnerability: He got attacked by Grell's chainsaw Death Scythe but it had no effect, because he's a shinigami.

* IllGirl: Rachel had asthma and was often bedridden as a result. Her condition was passed to Ciel.

* NiceHat: It covers his eyes, and enforces the similarities between him and [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ankou the Ankou legend.]]

* NiceHat: She habitually wears a red fedora hat.

* {{Yandere}}: Flashbacks show hints that he had a dark obsession with taking care of his twin brother, even before he became a Bizarre Doll, a state which caused a major UpToEleven.

* SinisterScythe: So far, the only Shinigami to use a ''real'' scythe. Decorated with bones, AbsurdlySharpBlade and all. [[UpToEleven He uses said Death Scythe to cut the ''Campania'' in two]].

* ColorCodedEyes: Grell noticing his eyes causes her to realize immediately he's a rogue Grim Reaper; apparently they all have the same kind of eyes, but he's not wearing any glasses.

* InhumanEyeConcealers: He's always seen with bangs whenever he appears. During "Book of Atlantic" we discover they hide his phosphorescent green eyes, which mark him as a Grim Reaper.
