| 8 | ** The symbol for the Blue dorm is an owl, which represents [[TheOwlKnowingOne wisdom and knowledge]]. |
| 9 | ** The animal of the Violet dorm is a wolf since all members of the Violet dorm are seen as [[SavageWolves weird and eccentric outcasts]]. |
| 10 | ** The symbol of the Green dorm is a lion, which seems to represent strength and victory as all members of the Green dorm are excellent athletes. |
| 11 | * FlowerMotifs: Each dorm is represented by a flower. Red roses for Scarlet Fox, blue gentian for Sapphire Owl, purple dahlia for Violet Wolf, and leaves of the holly tree for Green Lion. |
| 12 | * LastNameBasis: One of the school rules is that students must only be called by their surname. |

| 17 | [[folder:In General]] |
| 18 | * AbsurdlyPowerfulStudentCouncil: The P4 are the representatives of the students' houses, and hold the highest authority after the principal and vice-principal. |
| 19 | * AppealToTradition: Their top priority is preserving the noble traditions of Weston College. [[spoiler:They were willing to commit multiple murder for it.]] |
| 20 | * BoyBand: After [[spoiler:they're expelled from Weston]], they're next seen working as singers and dancers at the Sphere Music Hall. |
| 21 | * BrokenPedestal: Their fags are horrified when the prefects they looked up to confess to [[spoiler:having committed multiple murder to stop the bully Derrick from becoming a prefect]]. Hearing the truth robs them of the satisfaction of enjoying the same privileges their predecessors once had. |
| 22 | * ColourfulThemeNaming: Their last names (Redmond, Bluewer, Violet and Greenhill) refer to the representative colors of their respective dorms. |
| 23 | * CustomUniform: The prefects are the only students allowed to wear [[ColorCodedCharacters color-coded]] [[WaistcoatOfStyle waistcoats]]. |

| 26 | * IDidWhatIHadToDo: [[spoiler:They try to justify their murder of Derrick, the vice-principal, and Derrick's fellow bullies as something they had to do to protect the good traditions and honor of Weston College. Even so, the Earl thinks they went too far.]] |
| 27 | * SympatheticMurderer: [[spoiler:Redmond, Bluewer, and Violet cooperated in Greenhill's murder of the student Derrick Arden, the vice-principal, and all the witnesses because they discovered Derrick was a vile bully whose academic accomplishments were all stolen from better students and the vice-principal let him get away with it due to Derrick bribing him. Since none of the prefects wanted the honor and tradition of the academy to be stained, they murdered the two assholes. Considering everything, the prefects come off as the more sympathetic party in the crime.]] |
| 28 | * TrueCompanions: All of the P4 is revealed to be this, to the point of [[spoiler: covering up multiple murders]]. If one of them goes down, they all go down together. |

| 39 | Prefect of the Scarlet Fox Dorm. |
| 40 | ------ |
| 41 | * TheCasanova: He seems to be very popular with the ladies, including a few of Bluewer's sisters. He also mentions that he does not want a fixed partner, implying his play-boy ways. |

| 44 | * HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: And he's aware of it. "I'm ashamed of my inability to judge people." |
| 45 | ** He evidently didn't think too much about how Maurice Cole could have possibly done the work that he did in so little time, and with such soft hands. |
| 46 | ** And before him, [[spoiler:there was Derrick Arden, essentially another Maurice Cole with that BitchInSheepsClothing act cranked up, who doesn't stop at stealing other students' works but also traumatizes them with bullying.]] |
| 47 | * ItRunsInTheFamily: Ciel has seen those gold locks, gold eyelashes and AmbiguouslyBi [[TheCasanova Casanova]] act somewhere. It all makes sense when Redmond is revealed to be Viscount Druitt's nephew. |
| 48 | * LongHairedPrettyBoy: He's a beautiful man with long blond hair falling over his shoulder. |
| 49 | * NiceGuy: The friendliest of the prefects. |
| 50 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: Inverted. While he does have red eyes, it's only to identify himself as a member of the Scarlet Fox dorm, and he's the nicest guy in the school. |
| 51 | * SherlockScan: [[spoiler:No one but him noticed that the poem was written in blue ink in some parts, thereby enabling him alone to break the code.]] |

| 66 | * BlueMeansSmartOne: Bluewer is the prefect of the Blue House, known for housing Weston College's most academically gifted students. He has grey-blue hair and wears a blue waistcoat with his school uniform. His strength lies in making minute calculations and creating detailed schemes. |
| 67 | * DeterminedDefeatist: Sapphire Owl had lost so many cricket tournaments in the past that Bluewer became convinced that studying is all he and his students are good at. Thanks to Ciel, though, he decided to take another shot at winning anyway. |
| 68 | * DoNotCallMePaul: He dislikes being called by his first name, Lawrence, because it's against the rules. Since it's not an official rule though, the others, especially Redmond, do it anyway. |
| 69 | * HidingBehindYourBangs: His bangs often hide his right eye and he's the most serious of the P4. His hairstyle also foreshadows concealing intentions [[spoiler:since he and the other P4 committed multiple murder and are trying to cover up their crime]]. |
| 70 | * NerdsAreVirgins: When Redmond jokes about the number of women that hang around Bluewer, Bluewer reveals that his "women" are actually his seven sisters, and he is the only man in the family. Almost everyone is mortified to hear this. |
| 71 | * PrinciplesZealot: Out of the P4, he follows the rules more closely and faithfully. |
| 72 | * ResentfulOutnumberedSibling: He has ''[[MassiveNumberedSiblings seven]]'' sisters and doesn't look happy when they visit the academy for the cricket tournament. |
| 73 | * ScaryShinyGlasses: Bluewer gets these a couple of times in the manga, most notably when [[spoiler: he makes an astounding bowl against Greenhill in the cricket match]], and later when [[spoiler: he and the other prefects confess to murdering Derrick Arden to protect the integrity of their school when they discovered that he was bulling other students and using their talents to make himself appear perfect- and the vice principal was not only aware, but ''allowing'' it]]. |
| 74 | * TheSmartGuy: He's the most intelligent and studious of the P4. |
| 75 | * SmartPeopleWearGlasses: He's the only prefect who wears glasses and his dorm is Sapphire Owl, which is considered the House of Intelligence. |
| 76 | * SugarAndIcePersonality: He's serious, composed and collected, yet he can smile and praise other students when they demonstrate they have the righteous spirit fit for Weston College. He also looks very happy when Ciel manages to make the team of Sapphire Owl come out first place in the cricket tournament. |

| 88 | * CharacterizingSittingPose: He usually sits with both of his feet on the chair, highlighting his weird behavior. |
| 89 | * {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: He's a very weird guy. There's a reason he's the prefect of the dorm known for housing the school's eccentrics. |
| 90 | * {{Cuckoosnarker}}: He's the weirdest among the P4, yet shows a snarky streak when it comes to his fellow prefects' own quirks. |
| 91 | * DarkIsEvil: Aside from a very sinister appearance and liberally using satanic imagery in a manga where demons are ''very'' real, all the missing students were last seen in the Violet Fox Dorm. However, the "evil" part is ''very'' {{downplayed|trope}} because [[spoiler:while did to participate in a multiple murder and its cover up, the victims were all assholes involved in cruel bullying and cheating. Gregory is far from evil otherwise.]] |
| 92 | * DistressedDude: During the Blue Cult arc, on multiple levels. The readers first find him being drained of all his blood by a desperate Bravat, on the edge of death. Then we learn [[spoiler: he's been aware of Bravat's actions all along, but for some reason unable to directly act against him- the only way he could fight back was by inviting his friends in the hopes that one of them would contact Ciel.]] |
| 93 | * DrinkBasedCharacterization: Gregory mixes a dozen random cocktails together and ''drinks them all''. [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} Says a lot about the guy]]. |
| 94 | * EccentricArtist: During the cricket tournament, he drew the house crest of the Violet Fox dorm on ''the entire playing field''. |
| 95 | * EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette: He has black hair and ghostly pale skin, making him stand out as the most suspicious-looking of the prefects and head of the dorm known for housing eccentrics. |

| 99 | * {{Hypocrite}}: He calls Ciel "weird" for working like a butler despite his Earl status, while he makes a drink by mixing several cocktails and blowing bubbles into it. |
| 100 | * InTheHood: He often wears his coat's hood over his head, making him look mysterious and reclusive. |
| 101 | * MysteriousPurple: He's the most strange, mysterious and enigmatic of the P4. He's also the prefect of the Purple House. |
| 102 | * NightmareFetishist: In one instance, he draws a creepy drawing of Ciel about to be attacked by the [[Literature/AlicesAdventuresInWonderland Jabberwocky]]. |
| 103 | * TheQuietOne: He's the least talkative of the P4. |
| 104 | * ReclusiveArtist: In-universe example. He'd rather draw and paint than socialize, and dislikes his job as a prefect because it prevents him from focusing on his art. |
| 105 | * {{Troll}}: He demands that Greenhill strike a ''very'' complicated pose, then proceeds to make multiple drawings that have nothing to do with Greenhill or his pose. When Greenhill finally loses patience and relaxes, Gregory throws a bread roll at him and complains that his "masterpiece" is ruined, even though he ''never'' planned to use Greenhill as a model and just had him make a ridiculous pose for his own amusement. |

| 115 | ------ |
| 116 | * BatterUp: [[spoiler: Greenhill used a ''cricket bat'' to kill Derrick Arden to protect Weston High's traditions from being sullied, along with the Vice-Principal for ignoring Derrick's behavior. He also murdered Derrick's friends to remove any witnesses this way.]] |
| 117 | * BerserkerTears: [[spoiler: While murdering Derrick Arden, he starts shedding tears out of sheer rage]]. |

| 121 | * CarryABigStick: He's often seen carrying around a cricket bat on his shoulder. [[spoiler: Turns out he used it to murder Derrick Arden, the Vice-Principal, and several other students to protect Weston High]]. |
| 122 | * DistractedByTheSexy: While playing cricket, he's more distracted by Lau's scantily-clad women (displaying their bare legs, the Victorian equivalent of naked breasts) then any other player. |
| 123 | * ImprovisedWeapon: [[spoiler: Greenhill's cricket bat, which he used to commit multiple murder in order to protect Weston High]]. |
| 124 | * LaserGuidedKarma: [[spoiler: Derrick, one of his murder victims, bites him on his right arm causing injuries. He probably can't do sports anymore.]] |
| 125 | * LeaveNoWitnesses: [[spoiler: Herman clubbed Derrick Arden to death in a rage for dishonoring Weston High's tradition and also murdered Vice-Principal Agares for being in league with Arden. He also murdered Derrick's friends to remove any witnesses to the crime.]] |
| 126 | * LovableJock: He's one of the best sportsman in the school, but that does not make him a jerk and he's just as devoted to the school as all the other prefects. [[spoiler:It's played with because of the reveal that he's a murderer, but he still manages to be fairly sympathetic.]] |
| 127 | * MyGodWhatHaveIDone: He was the most horrified when he realized [[spoiler:he lost himself to his rage and killed Derrick, several other students, and the Vice-Principal.]] |
| 128 | * SeriousBusiness: Almost everything he does. |
| 129 | * ShamingTheMob: During the cricket tournament, the crowd accuses Ciel and the Sapphire Owl dorm of poor sportsmanship. Greenhill rightly [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech calls them out on their bullshit]] and defends Ciel's actions on the basis that aiming for someone's face requires a lot of practice and the use of such underhanded tactics is a sign that Bluewer and his students are very serious about winning the cricket tournament this year. |
| 130 | * UnstoppableRage: [[spoiler: After learning that Derrick was a sadistic bully who bribed the Vice-Principal and realizing that his becoming a prefect would ruin Weston High's reputation, Greenhill simply '''''snaps''''' and proceeds to murder both Derrick and the Vice-Principal in cold blood. When he calms down, however, [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone he realizes the gravity of what he just did and freaks out]].]] |

| 145 | |
| 146 | Redmond's fag. He's a manipulative, sneaky, and incredibly vain man that enjoys bullying others. He tricked Ciel, whom he saw a rival for Redmond's attention, and received punishment for his bullying and cheating after Ciel was able to find evidence of it. |
| 147 | ------ |
| 148 | * AlphaBitch: A rare male example. He's considered the most beautiful boy in the academy and is popular for being the perfect fag to Redmond, but he's a BitchInSheepsClothing who sabotages any student who attracts the positive attention of the P4 and bribes others into doing his fag duties for him. When Ciel exposes his lies, Maurice tries to keep him quiet by attempting to take humiliating pictures of him, but Ciel anticipated this and had the P4 hear their entire conversation. |
| 149 | * AmbiguouslyGay: He was really happy when Redmond offered to let him sleep in his room after Soma trashed the bedrooms, and he is obviously disappointed when Soma prevents it. When Ciel uses Lau's girls to distract Green Lion, Cole's reaction is to complain that he can't understand why the other students are "going gaga" for them. While [[BitingTheHandkerchief biting a handkerchief]]. |

| 152 | * BreakTheHaughty: After his true nature is exposed to the prefects, Redmond fires him, thus ending his prestige at school. Then, as one last nail in the coffin, Ciel spreads around pictures of [[{{Gonk}} his true face]]. |
| 153 | * BrokenPedestal: The P4, especially Redmond, are highly disillusioned in him after Ciel exposes him as a fraud and petty bully. |
| 154 | * ChainOfDeals: He got his many followers by getting multiple students to do all of his fag duties in his place. |
| 155 | * ConsummateLiar: Ciel points out how Maurice lies as easily as breathing. |

| 159 | * EvilChancellor: To Redmond. Though less TheStarscream and more of the backstab-any-potential-rival kind. |
| 160 | * EvilIsPetty: Goes after fellow students solely if he feels they are getting to close to the P4 for his liking. |
| 161 | * FreudianExcuse: He [[TheUnfavorite can't inherit his father's title]], and so is grabbing for power in whatever sphere he can reach. |
| 162 | * {{Gonk}}: Without his makeup on, he has beady, sunken eyes, and heavy lips that make him look somewhat like an ape. |
| 163 | * GreenEyedMonster: Most of his lies and schemes are to keep Redmond's attention on only him by ruining the reputation of any student Redmond might take a liking to. |
| 164 | * HarsherInHindsight: He told Ciel that he considers him a winner already, being a firstborn, and thus has no idea what it feels like to be like Cole: the youngest child who would never be able to inherit a title. [[spoiler: Later, we find out Ciel ''does'' know.]] |
| 165 | * HateSink: He's a petty and lying BitchInSheepsClothing who sets up other students to look bad in front of P4 so he can be the perfect fag in the eyes of the prefects. |
| 166 | * MakeUpIsEvil: Turns out he's as good with makeup as he is at manipulating his classmates. |
| 167 | * RegalRinglets: Male example. His hair is styled into golden ringlets and he's part of the house for beautiful, upper-class students. |
| 168 | * ScrewTheRulesImBeautiful: His reasoning for being a cheating, manipulative bully. |
| 169 | * StealingTheCredit: Cole is revealed to be a fraud who stole credit for all the work he's done. Ciel and Sebastian know right away something is wrong when they notice how unblemished his hands are while all the other fags have rough, callused hands with chipped nails from doing their work. |
| 170 | * UglyAllAlong: He's first introduced as the most beautiful boy in Weston, and enjoys massive popularity due to his cherubic charms. However, Soma discovers that Maurice's good looks come from make-up. Without it, he's a {{Gonk}} with an ape-like face. |

| 182 | * BringMyBrownPants: He wet his pants [[spoiler: while escaping the Bizarre Dolls at the midnight tea party]]. |
| 183 | * ButtMonkey: Something bad happens to him about every time he appears. In his first appearance, he's been a victim of [[BitchInSheepsClothing Maurice Cole]]'s trickery, and is therefore a social pariah. When Cole is exposed, Harcourt becomes Redmond's new fag and all starts to get better... but it doesn't last. In the cricket game, he's [[PottyFailure grossly humiliated]] because of Ciel's [[LaxativePrank trick]].

| 201 | |
| 202 | The son of Queen Victoria's cousin and a fifth-year student at Weston College. |
| 203 | ------ |
| 204 | * AlphaBitch: He was basically TheAce of Weston High and the favorite of the prefects, but in reality he was a cruel bully who stole other students' works to make himself look good. So when the P4 found out, he managed to bribe the Vice-Principal and get a lighter punishment. However, once he makes a remark he would become the next member of the P4, this prompts Greenhill to kill him to protect the traditions of the school. |
| 205 | * BitchInSheepsClothing: He made himself look like a well-behaved and likable student in front of the P4, but the truth was he was a cheating bully even worse than Maurice. |
| 206 | * BrokenAce: Derrick was a bright and talented student; he was the captain of his cricket team, a master embroider, always got high marks, and wrote beautiful poetry. He was well-loved by the students, teachers, and the P4. However, that was just an act to make himself look good and get rid of his family's pressure. He's really a horrible bully who forces other students to do the work for him. |
| 207 | * BrokenPedestal: Edgar was absolutely devastated to find that his fag Derrick was bullying several students and stealing their work to maintain his popularity with the school. |
| 208 | * TheBully: An even worse one than Maurice Cole. He tormented other students, almost to the point of torture, to [[HomeworkSlave forced them to do his schoolwork for him]]. |
| 209 | * DeadAllAlong: Derrick Arden was killed by the P4. [[BackFromTheDead He's been resurrected]], [[CameBackWrong albeit imperfectly]]. |
| 210 | * DiesWideOpen: After being clubbed in the head by Greenhill, he died with his eyes open. |
| 211 | * HateSink: Like Maurice, Derrick is a devious BitchInSheepsClothing who fooled the [=P4=] into seeing him as a model student, only for them to discover he was just a bully who forced his victims into letting him take the credit for their academic accomplishments. He's so despicable that the P4 end up coming off as the [[SympatheticMurderer sympathetic party after they murder him]]. |
| 212 | * KarmicDeath: He and his friends bullied many other students to steal their work and make himself shine before the P4. He showed no signs of remorse when the P4 found out about this, since he'd bought off the Vice-Principal, and was finally murdered by Greenhill. Even though the P4 was expelled for their crimes, no one shed a tear for Derrick's death. |
| 213 | * ManBitesMan: He bites Greenhill in the arm shortly after appearing as a Bizarre Doll raised by Undertaker. |
| 214 | * MissingChild: His disappearance is what sets off the Weston High arc where Ciel is asked by the queen to find out the whereabouts of Derrick and other students who have suddenly stopped sending letters to their families and haven't returned home for about a year. |
| 215 | * OurZombiesAreDifferent: Raised by Undertaker. He [[CameBackWrong came back as a Bizarre Doll]]. |
| 216 | * ScrewTheRulesIHaveConnections: He has a distant family relation to the ''Queen'', and this makes him think that he's entitled to commit despicable acts as he pleases in school. This eventually got him killed by Greenhill after a sly remark he would be a prefect in the next school year. |
| 217 | * StealingTheCredit: Like Maurice Cole after him, he stole his "talents" to maintain this reputation, along with bullying the other students and bribing the Vice-Principal to overlook their behavior for four years. When Greenhill realized that his becoming prefect would allow Derrick to abuse that power, sullying the school's reputation, he murdered him. |

| 295 | [[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ch83_johann_agares.png]] |
| 296 | |
| 297 | The vice headmaster of Weston College. |
| 298 | ------ |
| 299 | * TheAlcoholic: Implied. Derrick Arden bribed him with a whiskey bottle. |
| 300 | * DeadAllAlong: Johann Agares was killed by the P4. [[BackFromTheDead He's been resurrected]], [[CameBackWrong albeit imperfectly]]. |
| 301 | * KarmicDeath: He continuously took bribes from Derrick and in return he overlooked his horrendous behavior for four years. When the P4 caught Derrick and his friends bullying other students, Agares instead only punishes Derrick and his friends for being out late at night rather than the abusive way Derrick and his friends acted. After one sly remark from Derrick boasting to be the next P4 member, worried about the tradition and safety of the school unchecked if this continues, Greenhill snaps and murdered Derrick while the rest of the P4 restrain him and Derrick's friends, locking the room, to be killed by Greenhill. |
| 302 | * TheKlutz: Never fails to fall off a staircase. This is in fact foreshadowing to the reveal that he's a Bizarre Doll that's still imperfect and that's why he doesn't have good control over his body. |
| 303 | * MadeOfIron: He shrugs off ''falling down a staircase''. |
| 304 | * NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Agares is the name of a demon from the ''Literature/ArsGoetia''. |
| 305 | * NoOneCouldSurviveThat: He falls down a staircase several times and always gets up completely unharmed. Justified because he was already dead to begin with. |
| 306 | * OurZombiesAreDifferent: Undertaker's experiments have created a new type. These zombies can function as people, provided that they have enough "episodes" (their own projections of their futures). Agares had enough episodes to function as a normal human being, at least for awhile. |
| 307 | * SadistTeacher: Implied. He was hidden in the classroom where Derrick Arden was torturing two guys, even though he didn't have any motive to be there. Perhaps he was enjoying the show since he was bribed with the booze that Derrick 'confiscated' from the students. |
