Ronaldo
Voiced by: Makoto Furukawa (Japanese), Ian Sinclair (English)
A Vampire Hunter and one of the main characters of the trio.- Absurd Phobia: He not only dislikes the taste of celery but is actually deadly afraid of the vegetable itself. The mere sight of celery, especially living ones, is enough for him to immediately run for the hills while in tears and/or screaming his lungs out.
- The Ace: He is a famous vampire hunter and a competent one at that. He also writes his own autobiography which is incredibly successful and Draluc admits that it's very well written.
- Big Little Brother: He's taller than his older brother. This seems to be a trait running back to him at high-school age.

- The Gunslinger: Often carries a revolver that fires Vampire Tranquilizer Darts that he uses to hunt Vampires.
