History Characters / StrikeTheBlood

** BlowYouAway[=/=]MakeMeWannaShout: "Al-Nasl Minium", Familiar #9.

* MakeMeWannaShout: He is a sound-based Esper who uses special pills to power himself up.

* BladeOnAStick: Schneesturm Wölfin, [[BilingualBonus which is German for "Blizzard Wolf"]].

* TheBeautifulElite: Part of nobility? Check. Rich as hell and doesn't even bother to hide it? Check. Impeccable outfit in every single of his appeareances? Check. [[{{Bishonen}} More aesthetically pleasing]] than most of the cast available? Double check.
* {{Bishonen}}: Moreso than the rest of the male cast.

* OurVampiresAreDifferent: {{Bishonen}} vampire with the power to summon and combine dragon Familiars.

* BladeOnAStick: Jagura, a Familiar in the form of a whip spear.

* {{Bishonen}}: A standout case compared to the rest of the inmates.
* BladeOnAStick: After [[spoiler:Aya's defeat]], he retrieves the Fangzahn, [[spoiler:a sealed weapon of the Lion King Organization, and a FlawedPrototype according to Koyomi.]]

* {{Bishonen}}: He has shoulder-length hair, which is tied into a sidetail with a ribbon; and "Kou" is a gender-neutral name.

* BladeOnAStick: She wields Hasta Aurum, which resembles a golden Sekkarou. She also summons it in a similar manner to a Familiar, implying it's sentient.

* BladeOnAStick: Like Yukina she wields a magical spear, but hers can copy the abilities of others.

* BadassBaritone: Creator/KentaMiyake gives him a deep, manly voice.

* EvilSoundsDeep: He has a very macho BadassBaritone, which he uses to sound menacing to his opponents.

* WhipItGood: "Rosa Zombiemaker", a whip that enslaves everyone remotely close to it's impact. It even works on Familiars like Vatler's Sagara.

* NegatedMomentOfAwesome: He ''tries'' to pull a BigDamnHeroes to save Asagi, Yukina, and Nagisa from being taken off the island by Christoph Gardos and his men, even downing an entire bottles worth of his FantasticDrug to empower himself to do so, but is intercepted and attacked by Vatler before he can, as Vatler explains he can't let Motoki stop Gardos' plans just yet.

* BigBadFriend: Played with; [[spoiler:he actually is a member of the Lion King Organization sent to observe the Fourth Progenitor, a fact Kojou is unaware of.]] However, since [[spoiler:the Lion King]] isn't clearly defined as antagonistic so far, calling him "bad" is kind of a stretch.
** AFriendInNeed: It's implied that he doesn't quite agree with his superiors methods, as he's bent the rules more than once to help his friends from behind the scenes. [[spoiler:also, see ShipperOnDeck]]

* NonActionGuy: Gloriously proven by Vatler, who takes him and his sound apparition out in a single magic blast.

This is a list of the characters appearing in ''LightNovel/StrikeTheBlood''. '''Contains unmarked spoilers'''. Proceed at your own risk.

* {{Expy}}: Of the cold and emotionless [[LightNovel/ACertainMagicalIndex Index]] in [[SuperPoweredEvilSide John Pen Mode]]; both are voiced by Creator/YukaIguchi.

* GagBoobs: Possibly the largest chest in the series thus far.

* BareYourMidriff: Octavia, as part of her dancer-like outfit.

* BareYourMidriff: This is the outfit she takes in her true form.

* BoobsOfSteel: When she meekly asks Kojou about her insecurities concerning her unusual height, he mistakes the matter to be about her breasts (which he had just accidentally copped a feel of) and reassuringly tells her "Don't worry; you know what they say, "guys like them big."" And yes, she is as powerful as she is stacked.

** And to think that he somehow managed to turn that said discussion into a legit backroom negotiation that is literally his main job description in the mean time...
--->'''Narrator''': “Even if it looked like a casual, peaceful discussion, what was unfolding between Vattler and the princess was actually a highstakes backroom negotiation between foreign powers.

* CrypticConversation: Frequently has this with various characters, with him providing the InfoDump in vague sentences and the other character(s) becoming more annoyed as the conversation went on because of their inability to gain any useful information from the particularly one-sided conversation and/or embarassment if the said InfoDump is about them. All said with [[TheGadfly barely contained glee]] in his voice.

* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Kidnaps Asagi so that she can analyse and figure out the sound commands for the Nalakuvera's so that he can have a squad of virtually indestructible mechas on his side. [[spoiler:Instead she manages to homebrew a command that causes the Nalakuveras to self-destruct.]]

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

* AlmostKiss: In the beginning of Episode 12 with an unconscious Kojou, only to be interrupted by Himeragi. [[spoiler:She makes good on it and kisses him in front of all the other girls at the end of the same episode.]]

* KickingAssInAllHerFinery: She's dressed in a very formal and decorative coat and skirt most scenes.

* {{Ojou}}: Heir of a distant nation.

* PutOnABus: At the end of the Labyrinth of the Blue Witch arc.

* ShamelessFanserviceGirl: Downplayed, but still present. She has little reaction to Kojou seeing her bathing naked. She also does not hesitate in stripping, straddling or even kissing Kojou if it helps awaken his vampiric instincts. However, she says it's embarrassing to let Yukina watch.

* ArcVillain: Of the "Amphisbaena" arc.

* AlliterativeName: '''B'''eatrice '''B'''asler

* DragonWithAnAgenda: At first she seems like a pawn to Kensei, but after he backs down, she attempts to claim the project for herself.
* {{Expendable Clone}}s: She hopes to create clones of the Angel Faux using the blood of La Folia and then selling them for massive profits.
* {{Jerkass}}: Every other villain up until her introduction is downright ''pleasant'' in comparison to this bitch.

* MaleGaze: Every scene she's in contains at least 2 blatant fanservice shots of her.
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: As opposed to Kanase Kensei being [[spoiler:seemingly]] in it for the sake of science.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: When using Jagura.
* SexSlave: Not herself, but she says that clones of La Folia [[spoiler:and Kanon]] would go for ''lots'' of money even if they didn't have such strong magic power.
* SmugSnake: Perfectly pointed out by Himeragi; Without her whip she is a complete non-threat.
* SpamAttack: Her combat strategy boils down to pointing Jagura in the general direction of her opponent and just waiting for it to beat them to death with it's split whip attack.
* SpyCatsuit: What she wears to the final battle on the island.
* VaporWear: Clearly doesn't wear a bra.

* BuxomIsBetter: Her original body is very well-endowed, so when she finally creates a new one for herself, she borrows [[spoiler:Asagi's]] appearance but increases the bust size. Natsuki teases Kojou about whether or not this is what he's into, and it's the first thing Yukina notices upon meeting her.
* {{Doppelganger}}: Temporarily borrows the form of [[spoiler:Asagi]], although modified to invoke BuxomIsBetter.

* StrongFamilyResemblance: She takes after her mother Yukina appearance-wise, but with some slight differences; she has Kojou's blue eyes, her skin tone is lighter, and her hair is straight-black instead of dark brown. She's also a little older, taller, and more (ahem) "[[BuxomIsBetter developed]]" than her mother.

* SempaiKohai: Kojou's kouhai, as well as Kirasaka's kouhai and former roommate at High God Forest.

* SempaiKohai: She is Yukina's sempai and former roommate.

** Downplayed in Episode 8; after years of CannotSpitItOut, Kojou still believes they're JustFriends. So after the "Warlord" arc, she asks Kojou to get a close look at her earrings, and then plants a ForcefulKiss on him and says "Now you know". Kojou stunned by this; however, four episodes later, he starts to ask her about the kiss [[WhatAnIdiot (in front of the other girls)]], and she backpedals about its meaning.

* {{Gainaxing}}: The only time her breasts stop bouncing is when she's standing completely still.

* {{Gainaxing}}: Her breasts bounce back and forth during her appearances, something which doesn't sit right with Yukina.

* AnAxeToGrind: a ''gigantic'' battle axe that he wields [[OneHandedZweihander with one hand]].

* AnAxeToGrind: His weapon of choice, befitting his gallant stature.

[[quoteright:225:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/303466.jpg]]

* UnderestimatingBadassery: Just from a brief skirmish, he quickly decided that he will easily beat[[spoiler: Kojou]] in their duel, only to be proven wrong later. Granted that rationally he has more experience and skill in battle, but he never saw {{The Power Of Friendship}} coming just at the moment when he almost won.

* SuccubiAndIncubi: Her succubus powers can make women(those around Kojou), act on their feelings of jealousy.
* TokenMiniMoe: She's the youngest girl interested in Kojou. His friends believe he's a paedophile, much to his bemusement.

* TokenMiniMoe: Behind [[OlderThanTheyLook Natsuki]], [[OurHomunculiAreDifferent Astarte]], or [[HornyDevils Yume]] she's one of the youngest characters in the series.

* HornyDevils: Her succubus powers can make women(those around Kojou), act on their feelings of jealousy.

* ShesGotLegs: Via a skirt.

* ShesGotLegs: Even {{lampshaded}} by one of her classmates.

* ShesGotLegs: She has really nice looking legs, and they are accentuated even more by her [[ZettaiRyouiki thigh high stockings]]

* AwesomeMcCoolName: "Akatsuki Kojou" roughly means "Daybreak Castle", alluding both to his status as a vampire and creature of the night, but also his status as a Progenitor and thus destined lord of his own domain.

* KnifeNut: His weapon of choice when fighting Yukina on board of Vatler's ship.

* CryCute: Both in the brief flashback, and after waking up in Kojou's bed.

* AbsoluteCleavage: In her SpyCatsuit, she leaves the front completely unzipped down to her midriff.

* AbsoluteCleavage: Shamelessly flaunted.

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/imagesjpeg_17.jpg]]

* NiceHat: Emma's hat is a traditional witch's.

* NiceHat: The red-checkered hat is his most distinctive feature to the point that the fandom (and Kojou) has nicknamed him "Checkers".

%%* NiceHat: Her Paladiness veil, which also hides her horns.

* FriendlyNeighborhoodVampire: Taken UpToEleven because as the Fourth Progenitor, it's rather expected that he should be trying to create his own dominion and conquer lands and vassals for himself, but he doesn't care about any of that and just wants to be an OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent.

* RapunzelHair: It's ''knee''-length.

* RapunzelHair: Has long, billowing hair in both in her liquid metal form and [[spoiler:Asagi's]] body.

* RapunzelHair: It reaches her waist.

* RapunzelHair: Reaches past her waist.

* RapunzelHair: She had incredibly long blonde hair that almost reached her feet.

* VampireLolitaArchetype: Avrora is the former Fourth Progenitor, one of the oldest and strongest vampires in the setting. Her appearance is that of a preteen girl with blonde RapunzelHair and is often depicted wearing either a white frilly dress or a SailorFuku.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: If only to accentuate that she is not human.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Emma has turquoise hair, in contrast to her sister's black hair.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Like her son, she has dark-blue grey hair.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: She has dark purple hair.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: She has green hair.

* AdaptationDyeJob: For unknown reason, the anime changed his dark colored hair (described and portrayed in the light novel) into [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair light green]] in the anime adaptation.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Hers is violet.

->'''Voiced by''': Ikumi Hayama

* ShesGotLegs: Via a DangerouslyShortSkirt.

* DangerouslyShortSkirt: As per usual for this series.

* BattleAmongstTheFlames: She dies in Kojou's arms in a field of fire.

[[quoteright:280:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/67d1pik_4693.png]]

* BoyishShortHair: To the point that when Kojou's harem sees an old picture, they're relieved to see what they think is a boy. That relief doesn't last long...

* LadyLooksLikeADude: When she was younger, which is the only time Kojou has pictures of her from. This makes Yaze and Asagi's jaws drop when she shows up with a sizable bust.

[[quoteright:233:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/0mwme5d_3256.png]]

[[quoteright:233:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jmhad70_2346.png]]

[[quoteright:176:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pigulxg_4433.png]]

* DeathByOriginStory: If she hadn't died, we wouldn't have the series.

* MulticoloredHair: Has black hair with silver tips.
