Claymore - Main Characters

ClareClare
Japanese VA : Houko Kuwashima
Rank : #47
Type : Offensive

Character Description
Clare is the series’ protagonist. When she was a little girl, her family was killed and eaten by a yoma impersonating her brother. After being chased out of her village, another captured her and made her part of its disguise and its toy, often torturing her. She was saved by Teresa and empathizing with Teresa’s pain, Clare followed her for days without rest, food, or water. Teresa, after at first trying to get rid of Clare, eventually let her travel with her, and the two became attached. The presence of a caring human in her life helped Teresa regain her lost happiness and humanity. Their life together was cut short when Teresa was forced to kill some human bandits to save Clare’s life. The organization sent four of their best Claymores to execute Teresa, who was eventually killed by the awakened Priscilla.

Clare, who mysteriously wasn’t harmed, vowed to take Priscilla’s head in revenge, and begged the organization to fuse herself with Teresa’s flesh and blood. She thus became the only person to volunteer to join the Claymores and the first hybrid with 1/4 Yoma blood instead of the normal 1/2 and 1/2. Because of this low demonic ratio and power, she was given rank #47 — the lowest of all. However, Clare shares Teresa’s ability of heightened Yoki sensing to the point of being able to predict an opponent’s moves. It is unclear whether this is due to a biological inheritance, Clare choosing to follow in her mentors footsteps or a deliberately chosen tactic in order to fight Awakened Beings.

Clare partially awakened during her fight in Rabona, but was able to revert to her human state with Raki’s help. She lost her right arm during an incident involving Ophelia, but later received a new one from Ilena, along with the “Quick Sword” technique.

She once again came close to awakening during her battle against Dauf, but Galatea manipulated her yoki flow and brought her back. She then was able to use the same method to save Jean from losing her mind to awakening.

In the Northern campaign, Clare joined Flora’s party. Having grown significantly stronger she manages to fight on the same level as her captain. During the fight against Rigardo, Clare was able to deliberately awaken parts of her body, while remaining mentally human. Later, she confronts Priscilla immedately after her fight with Rigardo.

RakiRaki
Japanese VA : Motoki Takagi
Rank : N/A
Type : N/A

Character Description
Raki is a young boy whose family was murdered by a Yoma, which then took the form of his older brother, Zaki, as a disguise. This Yoma was slain by Clare, but Raki was suspected of being a Yoma as well, and was exiled from his village. Clare originally only offered to take him with her until he found a village he wished to live in, but she gets attached to him because their pasts are quite similar and Raki’s life with Clare parallels Clare’s life with Teresa in many ways. Raki also cares very deeply for Clare, and protects her without hesitation. It remains unclear whether their relationship is fraternal or romantic.

Raki was separated from Clare during her fight with Ophelia. While looking for Clara, he fell under the care of Isley and Priscilla, although he is not aware of their true identities as Awakened Beings. He is currently studying swordsmanship under Isley. Raki becomes aware that Priscilla is an Awakened Being and a former Claymore and leaves Priscilla and Isley in order to meet up with Clare, whom he finally sees from a small distance during her fight against Rigardo.
