Lest Karr

Lest Karr (レスト・カー, Resuto Kaa) is a third progenitor of the vampires who resides in Europe.

Appearance
Lest Karr has a childlike body with dark-rimmed eyes. His hair is in two braids which trail down his back. The right half of his hair is black while the left half is white. He has bangs. As with most vampires, he has fangs, red eyes, and pointed ears.

He wears a small decorated top hat to match his dark coat. He has a large bow at his collar, and wears white gloves.

Personality
A vampire, whom, as seen by the single appearance he has made, has an intelligent nature. His childlike appearance creates a large border when seen by the analysis he is capable of making.

He holds traits that make him seem like a good fit for his current rank. His arrogance which is shown by the fact that he is quite against Krul's decision-making within her power as the Queen of Japan. He even went as far to state that he himself was perfectly capable of ruling Japan as the King.

Despite his disagreements with the Krul, it seems he is actually most likely capable of holding all of Europe, as we've not heard of any conflict from that side.

History
He is two centuries younger than Krul. He destroyed a league of spellcasters experimenting on the Seraph in Europe.

Story
Third Progenitor Lest Karr appears in chapter 22 in the Progenitor Council and listens to Seventh Progenitor Ferid Bathory's report about the battle at Shinjuku. Upon learning that the humans have gained power in Japan, he accuses Third Progenitor Krul Tepes of mishandling her management of Japan. He says he would be happy to take her place. When she calls him a child and orders him to be silent, he states that he is only 200 years younger than her and is more powerful anyway. After Ferid interrupts their argument, Krul insists she never fails.

When asked about the younger vampire standing behind Ferid, the silver-haired noble answers that he is his most favorite servant, whom he cannot bear to part from. One progenitor scolds Ferid for such rule-breaking, and another comments that the Seventh Progenitor has always been eccentric.

Natural Abilities

As a noble vampire, he has the ability and permission to turn humans into vampires as he pleases.
