Arystar Krory III

Krory whipe his Innocence is invoked

Arystar Krory III is a supporting protagonist in the manga/anime series D.Gray-man. He is an Exorcist and member of the European Branch of the Black Order. A baron by birth, he spent a large portion of his life hidden in his grandfather's castle, and was believed by the members of a nearby village to be a "vampire." He was also the lover of an Akuma named Eliade. After discovering what she was, Arystar was forced to kill Eliade in order to free her soul. Initially after her death, he wished to have his life ended, as he believed he didn't deserve to live after murdering the only person who ever cared for him, but was convinced by Allen Walker to become an Exorcist, who believed Eliade's death would have been for nothing if he died.

He is voiced by Mitsuo Iwata in the Japanese version of the anime and Eric Vale in the English version, the former of whom also voices Shotaro Kaneda. In the English version of D.Gray-man: Hallow, he is voiced by Noriaki Sugiyama.

Personality

Krory led a very sheltered life before becoming an exorcist, causing him to act extremely naive (often comically so) when dealing with normal situations. He is a very poor judge of character and gets deceived very easily. In the anime, he gets into conflict over this, believing that he's just a burden to his friends due to his inability to see the bad in anybody. Krory is also rather sensitive, which leads him to be overemotional at times, often resulting in him crying over something small.

Trivia

• Krory can drink Akuma blood as a substitute meal, due to being a parasite type Exorcist. Though he doesn't have the tolerance a Noah does; so too much intake can make him ill.
• His friends call him by his family name; only Eliade called him Arystar.
