Kaname Kuran

[close] Kaname Kuran (玖蘭 枢), a Pureblood vampire and one of the last remaining members of the oldest and most powerful vampire family- the Kurans. He saved Yuki from an attack by a Level E vampire when she was five years old. Aside from his status, he was the Night Class dorm leader and class president, and was highly respected by all of the other Night Class students. While he is cold and authoritative towards his fellows in the Night Class, he is always kind and sweet to Yuki, whom he refers to as his "dear girl". From the beginning, it was revealed that he cared deeply for Yuki, and grew to love her, having been attached to her since she was born. Despite his cold feelings and anger towards Zero, he allowed him to live, out of sympathy for Yuki, who cared deeply for him. He also knew Zero could protect her when he could not. Prior to Yuki's memory loss, Kaname was believed to be her brother, and at a young age, the two pledged to marry each other, just as their parents, who were siblings as well, had done. In truth, he was actually an ancient ancestor of the Kurans, resurrected by Rido Kuran, who had intended to consume him and gain a huge amount of power. Kaname escaped and ended up being raised by Juuri and Haruka Kuran, as Yuki's brother, in place of the son that Rido took and used as a sacrifice to revive Kaname. He later became the leader of Vampire Society, pursuing peace between humans and vampires.
