Toragay Citizens
Margarita Blankenheim
- "Now, sleep"Also see Eve Moonlit
The main antagonist for the "Sloth" arc of the series; she's the daughter of the Felix family, her father a doctor. She was arranged to be married to her childhood friend Kaspar Blankenheim, who turns out to be a Gold Digger. Unhappy to be in such condition she tries to escape by sending everyone in the town (and after there’s no one left, herself) into a "deep sleep".
Represented by: Hatsune Miku
- Alas, Poor Villain: In the "Gift" novel, despite all the devastation she'd caused, her death is played up as especially tragic with Elluka trying desperately to save her at the very end.
- Arranged Marriage: To Kaspar. She insists it was a Happily Arranged Marriage, but she's lying.
- Back from the Dead: She died around her birth, and it was only due to magical intervention that Margarita survived. Or rather, that everyone thought she survived.
- Become a Real Boy: Feels inhuman due to her being unable to sleep, and by the end believes drinking her Gift and finally sleeping will make her human. Being a doll, though, all it does is make her remember her true nature.
- Broken Bird: Being treated almost like a decorative doll her whole life did this to her.
- Chekhov's Gunman: Made her first appearance in "Heartbeat Clocktower," accompanied by the word "Acedia". Though seeing as she's actually Eve, she made her true first appearance all the way back in "Moonlit Bear".
- Childhood Friend Romance: She and Kaspar were actually childhood friends, but grew distant in their adulthood. Their marriage is an arranged one.
- Childhood Marriage Promise: With Kaspar (see his entry). She tries to excuse him forgetting it in both the song and her inner monologue (although it only makes him look worse).
- Cope by Pretending: One of the reasons she embodies the sin of Sloth is that she takes this trope to the extreme, pushing herself into denial in a desperate effort to convince herself that her life is perfect rather than accept the reality that it isn't.
- Dead All Along: The real Margarita died shortly after birth; the one the audience sees is Eve Moonlit, having hypnotized everyone, even herself, into believing the doll was Margarita.
- Deadly Doctor: She herself is not a doctor, but gained her knowledge of medicines from watching her doctor father treating his patients. She slips her poison, unnoticed, successfully without anyone having any clue about what the hell is wrong with the Toragay citizens.
- Deconstruction: Much like Mikulia of an earlier arc, Margarita deconstructs the typical fairy-tale princess and the mentality that goes with it, falling in love with someone without really knowing them, having something extraordinary happen at their birth, and proving that everything does not automatically become better when princesses are added on.
- Despair Event Horizon: Her song describes the events that pushed her over it, namely marrying her love Kaspar and coming to realize that not only does he not love her or respect her, but he solely saw her as a means of getting money.
- Driven to Suicide: Drinks her own poison after the decimation of her town (that she caused).
- Faux Affably Evil: Goes hand-in-hand with her Stepford Smiler status; on the outside, she's kind, generous and tolerant. On the inside, she's stressed out, resentful and stark raving mad.
- For Happiness: Her claimed motivation is both to achieve happiness for herself and make everyone else happy by putting them to sleep.
- Genius Ditz: On top of being delusional, Margarita is regarded in universe as being a tiny bit on the ditzy side. Nevertheless, it takes brains to systematically poison everyone in your entire town without being discovered, and even more to turn that poison into a Synthetic Plague.
- Irony: Played with—Margarita, the sin contractor representing the sin of Sloth, is not only physically incapable of sleep, but also unable to feel fatigue, making her capable of working constantly and tirelessly. However, by the time she finishes her Seventh Gift and is completely consumed by her sin, she's running on autopilot and operating on basic instinct—in essence, her hard work becomes part of her laziness.
- Karmic Death: More like Karmic Suicide; she does herself in with the very same poison she used to kill everyone else.
- Kick the Dog: With Margarita's biggest crimes halfway through the novel being the murder of a scumbag husband and a father who used her (with even Hanne figuring she was otherwise harmless), she then proceeds to murder upwards of twenty orphans for no discernable motive other than "making them happy". Obviously her end goal was much more devastating, but it still comes at a point in the novel where it's particularly unexpected and harsh.
- Lazy Bum: A moral example; she didn't want to "work" to obtain her happiness, so she took the "easy" way out and put herself and everyone else out of their misery. Additionally, several parts of her song note a refusal to face reality. Instead of opening up about her problems, she chose to ignore them and pretend they didn't exist.
- Madness Mantra: Her inner monologue in the novel has an entire section of nothing but "I am the Sleep Princess" written over and over...
- Mad Scientist: Her constant refinements of Gift for the purpose of making her sleep are all tested in others, who promptly die or end up in critical condition.
- Master Poisoner: She even outclasses the Rogzé family, managing to poison Kaspar, his mistress, and her father without anyone realizing it, and refining the Gift until it became an airborne contagion that could have killed all of Evillious.
- Meaningful Name: Once again, crossed with Genius Bonus; her name’s based on Marie-Madeleine-Marguerite d'Aubray, Marquise de Brinvilliers, a French Serial Killer who poisoned her family to take their fortunes and poisoned poor people during hospital visits. Hey, wait a minute!
- Missing Mom: Her mother died while giving birth to her. And the real Margarita died at her birth as well.
- Obliviously Evil: While a member of Pere Noel as "Third Sleep Princess," she isn't aware of what the organization really is or what Kaspar and her "friend" have been doing, even as she makes poisons for them. She treats her poisoning people as a good thing for helping them sleep.
- Obfuscating Stupidity: In regards to the criminal activities of her friend, she's both remaining willfully ignorant of Père Noël and just plain pretending to be completely dumb about it around others. This confuses Hanne a good deal.
- Patricide: Her second victim is her own father, whose death starts off people's suspicions that there's something going on in Toragay.
- Required Secondary Powers: "Powers" may not be the right word, but her inability to sleep comes with the side effect that her body can't feel fatigue.
- The Resenter: Deep down, she hates and resents everyone for using her all of her life.
- Trophy Wife: How Kaspar viewed her, a rare example where they're both the same age. Or so they think...
- The Sleepless: Has a rare condition called "Sleepless", as such she has never in her life slept. That's because she's a doll, and is unable to sleep
- Stepford Smiler: She smiled at all times, but her true nature was lost after years of being exploited. This is also a major reason why she represents the sin of Sloth—Margarita lived her life in a constant state of denial, refusing to accept the reality that her life wasn't as perfect as she wanted it to be and refusing to "work" to fix her problems, instead choosing to push them out of her mind and pretend they don't exist.
- Villain with Good Publicity: Due to being always smiling, helping out at an orphanage, and the pity she gets from being married to a cheating Gold Digger, few people suspect of her ties to Père Noel and her experiments with Gift.
- Would Hurt a Child: After Kaspar and her father, some of her first victims were children in an orphanage where she worked.
- Younger Than They Look: Margarita looks like a young adult, when in fact she's only sixteen-years-old. This may be due to Eve Moonlit having an influence on her appearance.
Marx Felix
- "We...all of us...have been deceived!"
Margarita's father and Toragay's local doctor; although doting on his daughter, he uses her marriage to Caspar as a means to retake the status of the Felix family and is the second victim of her poisoning.
- Almost Dead Guy: Awakens from his coma just long enough to (not quite) tell Elluka that Margarita is the Clockworker's Doll, before he has a seizure and dies.
- Blue Blood: Previously his family had been the reigning earls over Toragay before losing power.
- Convenient Coma: Put in a coma by the poison given him, so he can't give away any of the plot details early. He does reawaken, albeit for only a minute.
Egmont
The proprietor of the La Bula Pharmacy in Toragay.
- Dr Feel Good: He pushes energy tonics for people who are otherwise completely healthy (like Hanne.) Turns out he even got the tonic on the black market, and he admits he doesn't have much medical experience.
- Small Role, Big Impact: He's a minor character who shows up in a total of three scenes, but he's the one who discovers the Millennium Tree sap can be used as a medicine and saves Toragay.
- Unwitting Instigator of Doom: He sold Margarita most of the ingredients she needed for her poison, not suspecting her of any wrongdoing.
Rita Flohn
- "Of course....I don't know if Margarita really became happy."
A former midwife and the director of the Charity Institute in Toragay who takes care of the orphans living there, as well as a friend of Margarita's, who often visits the Institute.
- Big Sleep: Closes her eyes and slumps in a chair as she succumbs to the Gift, "sleeping" like many of the victims.
- Freak Out: Understandably she becomes hysterical when the children in her care begin dying from the Gift, screaming and then walking around in a daze.
- Friend to All Children: She dedicates her life to taking care of the orphans in the Institute, and was a midwife before that—she has a close bond with them all.
- Parental Substitute: Not only to the orphans, but also to Margarita, who lost her mother when she was born. She's understandably angry with Kaspar and all the women he cheats on her with.
Brigitta
The innkeeper of the local inn in Toragay, she’s also the mother of a resident coachman. She regularly allows Hanne to stay at her inn during her investigation.
- Casual Danger Dialogue: She has a tendency for remaining calm in situations where she should naturally be upset—while her inn is under attack by a loose-cannon cop, when she's one of the few surviving plague victims holed up in a basement, etc.
- Men Don't Cry: Claims she won’t have sympathy for her son, a grown man, when he’s crying tears of joy to see her alive. That said, she's also crying.
- Only One Name: As with most residents of Elphegort, she has no surname.
- Perpetual Frowner: Always has a scowl or a grimace on, though Hanne's observations suggest it's actually just the natural state of her face.
Unknown Coachman
The son of Toragay's innkeeper, a coachman who often carries Hanne in her many treks between Aceid, Calgaround, and Toragay.
- Nice Guy: The man's a gentle soul who cares deeply for his mother and helps those in need; he's even described as having an outwardly kind appearance.
- No Name Given: He's only referred to as the coachman and son of Brigitta, the innkeeper.
- Tears of Joy: When he finds his mother among the surviving Gift victims, he weeps at her feet to see her alive.
The Freezis Foundation
Hanne Lorre
- "This isn't the end of this case"Also see Elluka Clockworker
An investigative reporter for the Shuburke newspaper, she's the protagonist of the Gift from the Princess who Brought Sleep novel. Trying to get a story on the Flower of the Plateau in Merrigod leads her down a path into Toragay's black market, Père Noël, and Margarita's homicidal "Gift-giving." She and her younger sister are the great-granddaughters of Shaw Freezis.
Represented by: Megurine Luka
- Black Sheep: In terms of ambition, she's removed from the other members of the Freezis Family, many of whom have high positions in the Foundation. She's also removed from them all socially; after Shaw dies she's led in to see him through the back way, with the explanation that the relatives didn't want to see her. This is probably because she isn't a member of the family at all...
- Dissonant Laughter: Breaks out in laughter during Kaspar's funeral when she sees Margarita and realizes how much she looks like Mikulia and Platonic, even noting she's making a fool of herself by laughing. It's one of the hints that she's Elluka, who does this elsewhere in the series as well.
- Intrepid Reporter: Working for the Shuburke newspaper, she does quite a bit of legwork all over the novel.
- Frame-Up: After Shaw's death, she's framed for causing the Lioness burning incident. This is doubled by the fact that the one originally framed was Elluka, her real identity.
- Nepotism: Downplayed. As Shaw Freezis's great-granddaughter, she has an easier access to the Freezis Foundation's resources and powers than the average reporter, which she uses to her advantage.
- Older Than They Look: Although she looks like a fresh new face, she makes several allusions to being much older and often feels weary as a result of her age. Since she’s Elluka, this is even more true than others suspect.
- Punny Name: It doesn't come across in English, but in Japanese her name actually doubles as slang for an alias you use on the internet. Appropriate, considering she's so obviously Elluka.
- Red Oni, Blue Oni: Serves as a blue to Heidemarie's red.
Dashaw Freezis
A close friend of Hanne Lorre and the grandson of Shaw Freezis, who is killed in the Lioness Burning Incident.
- Dogged Nice Guy: He had a crush on Hanne and showed her much affection, which she was unable to return.
- Go Out with a Smile: After seeing Hanne was safe, he smiled even as he was being burned alive.
- Heroic Sacrifice: He dies to protect Hanne from the fires sweeping through Lioness.
- Nice Guy: He was a good friend of Hanne who gladly protected her at cost to his own life; as a Freezis, it was probably genetic.
Bruno Marlon
- "It was decided that one with the name of 'Bruno' would be the closest and most trusted aide to the Freezis Family. The one that has inherited the name of 'Bruno' is me."Also see Kaidor Blankenheim
Shaw Freezis' close aide in the Freezis Foundation and a representative for the organization; he often comes into contact with Hanne Lorre as she makes use of the Foundation's resources.
- Dead Person Impersonation: The Bruno of the Gift novel is not the true Bruno; he's Kaidor Blankenheim using his appearance to keep secret that he's Kaspar's real father.
- Evil Laugh: He gets quite a chuckle out of announcing his intentions to arrest Hanne and Heidemarie.
- Legacy Character: He took the name "Bruno" like the Association members in Conchita's time, as after it was absorbed into the Foundation "Bruno" became the name for the Foundation head's closest aid.
- He also takes up the codename "Second Dealer" after Kaspar's death.
- The Mole: In truth, he’s working with Père Noël and planned to kill Hanne and Heidemarie in order to become the next Second Dealer.
- Off with His Head!: This was Bruno's actual fate; he was killed by Kaidor Blankenheim and his head brought to Seventh Magician so he could steal his face.
- Old Retainer: He's Shaw Freezis' most trusted aide and serves him loyally for over fifty years. It's double subverted when it's revealed he's Kaidor impersonating Bruno, and then revealed that Kaidor still cares a lot about Shaw despite dealing with Père Noël under the table. This could also be true of the real Bruno.
- Only Known by Their Nickname: As "Bruno" is a code name, it's not known what his true first name is.
- Villain with Good Publicity: Even after he's revealed to Elluka and Gumillia as evil, most of the public still only sees his good side and he's given a prestigious position in the Foundation after Shaw’s death.

Represented by: GUMI
- Big Damn Heroes: In Pierrot, she shoots Lemy just as he's about to stab Ayn in the chest.

- Mage Marksman: Her gun can shoot magic bullets.
- Nepotism: Because she's Shaw's great-granddaughter, Hob can't just fire her when she screws up.

- Red Oni, Blue Oni: She's the red to Hanne's blue.
- The Quiet One: She notably speaks very little compared to the other figures in the novel, as part of her stoic character.
- Unable to Cry: After Shaw's death, while she may seem unfazed about it, internally she's very saddened; she has never cried and may not be capable of doing it.
Ayn Anchor
A constable working for the World Police helping to investigate the death of Marquis Blankenheim, as well as the other deaths soon to follow in Toragay. Following the events of the Gift novel, he's promoted to an investigator in the World Police international task-force, Justea, and investigates the Rolled Murders perpetrated by Fifth Pierrot.
- Ascended Extra: He's given a much bigger role in the first half of the Pierrot novel, Gift's sequel.
- Big Damn Heroes: He ends up trying to be one for Hanne and Heide later on in the novel when Bruno has them locked up under false charges, but it's played with when they were already preparing to save themselves at the moment he arrives.
- Much earlier in his career he was this for Lemy Abelard when Yarera III and Zusco Jr. were trying to kidnap him. Dressed as a clown for a case, he was the one who rescued the child, not Fifth Pierrot as Lemy thought.

- Friend on the Force: After a bit of initial friction he becomes a friend for Hanne while she investigates the deaths in Toragay.

- Dead Guy Junior: He was raised by Clarith in the monastery and named after the Ayn of Wiegenlied of Green.
- Only One Name: Unlike his grandson he doesn’t have a last name, being abandoned by his birth parents.
- Posthumous Character: His importance to the story is as Ayn Anchor's namesake, and he's long passed away by the Gift novel.
Hob Homer

Heidemarie's superior in the International Works Department, who grows exasperated with her questionable crime-solving methods.
- Big Damn Heroes: He and Ayn try to be this for Hanne and Heide when the sisters are imprisoned by Bruno Marlon on false charges, but the girls were already preparing to save themselves when they showed up. At the very least he gave Heide her fireworks gun back.
- Da Chief: He's the head of Justea, the international division of the World Police, to Heidemarie's Cowboy Cop.
- Reasonable Authority Figure: Sure, he suspends Heidemarie from her investigations on Bruno's orders, but that's also because of how much damage she does as a cop. He also refuses to go along with Bruno's plan to frame her for the deaths at the orphanage.
- The Dog Bites Back: After being ordered by him to twist the law one too many times, he eventually aids in bringing Bruno to justice.
- Turn in Your Badge: He can't fire Heidemarie because she's Shaw's great-granddaughter, but he does force her to take time off after she terrorizes two innocent people in her pursuit of Rin Chan's kidnapper.
Willus Zorach
- "Alcohol? ......No, you're wrong, you're so wrong. I didn't do it, Investigator Anchor. I may be wasted, but it's seasickness."
An investigator for the international World Police task force, Justea. In the Fifth Pierrot novel he's partnered with Ayn Anchor and helps investigate the Rolled Murders perpetrated by Fifth Pierrot.
Represented by: WIL
- The Alcoholic: His Establishing Character Moment is wandering onto a crime scene drunk and rambling that he isn't; interestingly he isn't any worse investigating drunk than he is sober.
- Mr. Exposition: Shares the role with Ayn throughout the Pierrot novel; heck, they summarize the entirety of the Gift bonus story together.
- Red Oni, Blue Oni: The red to Ayn's blue; visually they're opposed even further in that Willus has black hair, Ayn white.
- Secret Legacy: The Zorachs were tasked with taking care of an ancient facility under Castle Hedgehog where four infant Ghoul Children were sleeping in stasis, the head of the family forced to stay in the facility at all times.
- Sympathetic Inspector Antagonist: Serves as one in a duo of Inspector Antagonists, both he and Ayn working together to arrest Lemy Abelard during the Rolled Murders.
- Verbal Tic: Often repeats his sentences twice, or even three times, whenever answering back to someone.
- Would Hurt a Child: Albeit under his grandfather's orders, he gladly kills the four Ghoul Children that were in stasis under his family's care because it meant he wouldn't have to be cooped up taking care of them.
Pere Noel
Julia Abelard
- Also see Irina Clockworker
The leader of Père Noël and a major character in the Sloth Arc. Also known as "First Santa Claus" by her subordinates and is Lemy Abelard's adoptive mother, enticing him to become Fifth Pierrot after his first murder.
Represented by: MEIKO
- Abusive Parents: Subverted; given how she was portrayed as manipulating him in the "Fifth Pierrot" song and Irina's villainous nature, it was believed that she was emotionally abusive to Lemy, but she truly does care about and treat her son well despite also using him in her organization.
- All Witches Have Cats: Due to being Irina.
- Bad Boss: Threatens to burn her subordinate, Gatt, to ashes if he doesn't weed her garden, when it's not even in his job description.
- Bad Santa: Her moniker in Père Noël is First Santa Claus, and Lemy refers to her as "Miss Santa."
- Reincarnation: In-universe, people looking back on Père Noël speculate she was a reincarnation of Germaine Avadonia, but in fact she’s just using her body.
- Identical Stranger: To Meta and Germaine. Is in fact using Germaine's body as a medium, the trope still applies in that Germaine looks like Meta.
- Immortality: Another in-universe speculation is that Germaine became immortal, which is closer to the truth as her body is still immortal.
- Parental Substitute: She adopts Lemy when he's six years old.
- Sexy Santa Dress: Shown in a silhouette for the "Five the Pierrot" video, she wears one as "First Santa Claus."
- Villain with Good Publicity: The beginning of the Gift novel has her as the mayor of Calgaround. The truth is worse. She's the democratically-elected president of Lucifenia, although by the latter part of Part 2 in Pierrot her true nature is made more clear to the public.
Lemy Abelard
- "The punishment of bad children, that's Pierrot's job"
A young boy who was adopted by Julia Abelard (AKA Irina) and the Villain Protagonist of the first half of the Fifth Pierrot novel. Eventually after his adoption he becomes a member of the criminal organization Père Noël as "Fifth Pierrot," serving as the organization's personal assassin. Not too bright and has a penchant for mischief; he is also a reincarnation of Hansel.
Represented by: Kagamine Len
- Affectionate Gesture to the Head: He's especially fond of Julia petting his head, given how he highlights it in the song.
- Beware the Silly Ones: Lampshaded in his song, he's a silly looking boy who stabs people. This is, in fact, intentional; in universe, he's scariest because of how ridiculously he's dressed as opposed to what he does.
- Childhood Friends: He had a close friendship with Rin during his days at the orphanage; this is why he "kidnaps" her later on and why Julia doesn't simply kill her.
- Cute and Psycho: Although not so psycho initially, as he becomes used to killing he becomes this trope more and more.
- Declaration of Protection: Does this to Julia.
- The Ditz: According to the Demon of Gluttony, he's still as daft as his previous incarnation, Pollo. While not the dumbest character in the series, he still lacks a lot of basic understanding for the events going on around him and so only goes by the command of others, like his mother.
- Dying Alone: When he's finally shot by Eighth Sniper, he's supposedly abandoned by the voice in his head Ney and dies calling out for her. Although he didn't actually die at that point.
- Enfant Terrible: A prepubescent Serial Killer.
- Face of an Angel, Mind of a Demon: Is initially a sweet boy, but due to being an HER he very quickly takes to murder once he's started.
- Genius Ditz: Despite being so slow-witted, he's extremely competent in murdering people.
- Hearing Voices: After discovering the Glass of Conchita in his mother's treasury, he starts hearing Ney's voice in his head.
- For the Evulz: This is deep down his true motivation for killing; as an HER he has a natural love of killing and quickly becomes desensitized to stabbing people.
- Ironic Echo: The line "Turning black to red" refers to both him killing in the night, and his own death during one of his nightly missions.
- It's Personal: He helps go on a killing spree of prostitutes in part because Julia tells him that his original mother was, the same mother that left him to die.
- Legacy Character: He inherits the title and motif of the original Fifth Pierrot; due to being rescued by Fifth Pierrot when he was little, Lemy comes to idolize him and hopes to fill his shoes.
- Momma's Boy: Tells everything to Julia, and will do almost anything for her.
- Monster Clown: Wears a jester outfit. One of the most adorable examples of this trope, which makes him all the more unsettling.
- Obliviously Evil: Partially due to his stupidity, Lemy believes in his mother's Knight Templar rhetoric that all the evil people are her opposition, while she's purely trying to save the world.
- Orphan's Ordeal: Nearly drowned by his birth mother and grew up in typical Victorian orphanage.
- Recurring Dreams: He has a recurring dream of his original mother tossing him into a cold river and abandoning him; Julia tells him later that that is indeed what happened when he was an infant.
- Reincarnation: Of Hansel.
- Serial Killer: One that passed through Evillious history under the name of "Lemy the Ripper"
- Third-Person Person: Only refers to himself as "Pierrot" throughout his song, never with personal pronouns.
- Together in Death: After Gumillia shoots him he's finally reunited with his sister and Banica Conchita, having been separated from them for years during his reincarnation cycle.
- Undying Loyalty: Like all Hansels, towards his mother figure, Julia.
- Villainous Breakdown: In the latter half of the novel he freaks out when he's confronted by Ayn for his crimes and Ayn reveals it was him, a cop, and not the original Fifth Pierrot who saved him when he was young. He angrily insists it isn't true and tries to murder Ayn right there.
Kaspar Blankenheim
The Marquis of Toragay and Margarita's childhood-friend turned husband, although by the time they married he was only using her for her money. A lecherous playboy who frequently cheated on Margarita, he was the first victim of her poison. He was also Second, Dealer in Pere Noel.
Represented by: KAITO
- A Lady on Each Arm: In one of the images in the PV for "Gift from the Princess Who Brought Sleep," to emphasize his lechery.
- Asshole Victim: As a greedy playboy who uses and openly cheats on his devoted wife, nobody's really upset that he's dead. He was also a black market dealer who made profits for Père Noël.
- Arranged Marriage: To Margarita.
- Blue Blood: As the Marquis of Toragay, his family line an offshoot of the Marlon royal family.
- Childhood Friend Romance: With Margarita. While they used to be friends as children, as adults Kaspar only was interested in her because of her fortune. It's even implied he had this with countless other prospects for marriage.
- Childhood Marriage Promise: He gave Margarita a wooden ring when they were children, promising to marry her, although Margarita believes he might have done the same thing with many other wife candidates.
- Curtains Match the Windows: Both blue, as expected for a man related to the Marlons.
- Domestic Abuse: He's emotionally neglectful of Margarita and financially abusive to a point of selling all her material possessions to keep wasting money on other women and cigarettes. Is it any wonder she decides to kill him?
- Greed: Most of the things he does is motivated by getting more money to do with as he pleases. His marriage to Margarita, his selling off of all her stuff, his joining a criminal organization...
- Gold Digger: Only married Margarita for her money.
- Good Smoking, Evil Smoking: A chain-smoker of cigarettes who spends a lot of money on tobacco; it's the first given cause of his death.
- Hate Sink: Being a selfish, greedy hedonist who both exploits and openly cheats on his wife, it's clear that Kaspar is not meant to be liked. This helps to make Margarita seem a tad more sympathetic by comparison.
- Impoverished Patrician: Because of his horrible spending habits, he's too broke to even afford servants—even marrying Margarita doesn't help in the long run.
- The Insomniac: Not to the extent of his wife, but once he gets under progressively more stress he is unable to sleep; such makes Margarita convinced that he'll be happy if she puts him to sleep forever.
- Jerkass: Openly cheats on his wife (using her dowry to do so) and only uses her for appearances. Also a member of a criminal organization.
- Pet the Dog: In the afterlife, he's among the souls joining in singing the Clockwork Lullaby to assist Allen and Riliane.
- Posthumous Character: His effect on Margarita and elsewhere is felt throughout the novel, even getting his own character profile, but he's dead before he can get any screen time.
- Secret Identity: While on the surface he's merely a rich playboy who fools around with his wife's fortune, he's also a member of Père Noël, as "Second Dealer."
Gatt Coulomb
- "There are necessary evils one must undertake to right this world."
A lieutenant general of Asmodean and subordinate of Julia Abelard. He's also secretly Sixth Venom, a member of Père Noël who serves as an assassin and clean-up crew for their illicit activities.
Represented by: Camui Gackpo
- Affably Evil: Has a very sadistic side in regards to his killings but he's very polite and even kind to other members in Père Noël like Lemy; he also fully believes the Knight Templar rhetoric Julia uses to justify Père Noël's existence as a "good" organization.
- Antiquated Linguistics: Talks in a formal and archaic dialect typically associated with samurai; in-universe, it's associated with a certain region of Asmodean.
- Continuity Nod: Being a purple-haired swordsman with the name Gatt and a second name "Venom," he is most certainly a reference to his ancestor, Gast Venom, of the Daughter of Evil series, whose name in turn is a reference to their ancestor, Sateriasis Venomania.

- The Dragon: Served as this to the Julia Abelard while in Père Noël.
- Dragon with an Agenda: Although very loyal to her master her real goal was to kill Elluka, which Julia expressly forbid.

- Alliterative Name: She eventually takes up the pseudonym "Isabel Ismael".
- Back-Alley Doctor: She's a variant for her real job, when her "miracles" include changing her client's face to match someone else's, a kind of magical plastic surgery.
- Deadpan Snarker: She's got a pretty sarcastic attitude with her clients, especially ones like Mayrana who tick her off.

- Decapitation Presentation: He presents Bruno Marlon's decapitated head to Seventh Magician, asking her to make his face look like his.
- Even Evil Has Loved Ones: He may have murdered his wife but he does care about his son, Kaspar; the reason he steals Bruno's identity is because, after entrusting the boy to his brother, being arrested looking as he is would rouse the public to make the connection the're parent and child and cause more problems.

- I Owe You My Life: So loyal to Julia because she believes she is responsible for preventing her death.

- Childhood Friends: She had a close friendship with Lemy during her days at the orphanage.
- Damsel in Distress: Kidnapped by a serial killer child; Heidemarie makes it her mission to save her. It's actually more complex than this, however—her manager Ton was exploiting her to make money and Lemy is the one that, in his way, tries to rescue her from him.

- Greed: His motivation, to make as much money off the children he adopts as possible.
- Hate Sink: He's worse than Kaspar, even, being a horribly cruel individual who happily exploited children for money and then killed them when they outlived their usefulness.

- Make It Look Like an Accident: Many of the children he took on to do work for him later died of various "accidents" and diseases. There's no evidence it was anything more, but his body count adds up.

- Would Hurt a Child: He punches Lemy in the face to make him shut up.

- Bullying the Dragon: Along with Yarera III he tries to kidnap the son of Julia Abelard, First Santa Claus—although they didn't know this at the time. But then when Fifth Pierrot comes in to stop them he actually attacks him. To be fair it wasn't the real Fifth Pierrot, but he didn't know that.
