Vampires around Saitō's prison

The vampires around Saito refer to a group of unnamed characters in Seraph of the End. In the region of around ten members, the cloaked and vampire nobles were aware of the other second progenitor's background as they contemplated his imprisonment.

Appearance
The group was made of regular vampires who wore long hooded white cloaks that reached down to the back of their thighs in length. An unhooded vampire noble had his hair swept back. These vampire nobles had the extended length of the jackets reach down to the back of their legs. They wore dark colored boots.

Personality
Curious, they discussed who the prisoner nearby was amongst themselves but did not question higher ranked nobles such as Ky Luc on who Saito was or why they were guarding him. They apprehensively considered the ramifications of disobeying Saito given his rank, before feeling assured being aware of the type of prison he was in as well as that Urd placed him there. Regardless they remained trepidatious at minor movements from Saito.

History
Largely unfamiliar with Saito's appearance, some members expressed familiarity with Rigr and were aware of him as a traitor from over a millennium ago. They were apparently unaware that Rigr was able to defeat Urd in combat during their time in Romania.

Story
A group of at least seven vampires are stood around Saito's prison. One asks who that is, to hear that it is supposedly Rigr Stafford. A member checks whether Rigr is not the traitor who betrayed them over a millennium ago. Saying to wait, one vampire asks if Saito is not supposed to be a second progenitor, the same as Lord Urd, and will he not kill them for defiance. The reply is that they should be fine since Saito is held in a prison designed to detain the highest-level progenitors and that Lord Urd himself put him there. Vampires including a noble appear shocked when Saito abruptly crushes the stone ends of his arm rest and Lest Karr speaks to Saito on how everyone is terrified.

With Saito attacking with his chains, these vampires are skewered and violently yanked upwards in the air as he escapes and are powerless to intervene as Saito engages Lest Karr and Ky Luc in combat. After Saito's escape was revealed to have been an illusion, where he was physically still contained in his unbroken cage, they were subjugated by a Hyakuya Sect spell tag copy of Saito.
