Yuki is a strict enforcer of the rules between the day and night classes. She is very responsible and kind. She’s in love with Cain, because he saved her and visited her as she grew older, but she is currently pretty shy around him. Since Cain adores her, she is reluctantly accepted by the night class. She cared for Zero the night Headmaster Cross brought him home 4 years ago and has been his close friend ever since.

DAE HO PAK - Zero Kiryu is a vampire hunter, having been trained by Toga Yagari. Zero’s family was slaughtered by pure blood vampires 4 years before the present story. Headmaster Cross found him and took him in. Due to the attack, Zero developed a deep hatred and distrust of vampires, despite originally being a gentle character by nature; however, he retains his kindness beneath his scowls, always looking out for the Day Class students in case the Night Class "misbehaves". Zero also holds a deep hatred for Cain Kuran, who tells him that he is simply a shield for Yuki. He has a tattoo on his neck which was placed there in hopes of preventing him from transforming into a vampire since it was revealed he was bitten during the attack on his family.

DEREK RAMIREZ - Kaname (Cain) Kuran is a Pureblood vampire who saved Yuki from an attack by a Level E when she was a child. Cain is revealed to be one of the original vampires and founder of the Kuran family, who was raised as Haruka and Juri's son after being reawakened by Rido Kuran. He worked together with Kaien Cross to establish the Night Class to promote peaceful co-existence between vampires and humans. Because of his status, he is usually addressed as "Lord Cain" excluding Zero who refuses to do so.


"DAY CLASS" STUDENTS (HUMANS)

The Day Class students are humans who attend Cross Academy and live in the Sun Dormitory. The majority remain ignorant of the vampires at the school. They attend classes during the day only, hence the name, while wearing black uniforms.


MARIKO KOBAYASHI - Sayori "Yori" Wakaba is Yuki's dorm-mate and best friend since junior high. Yori is a very perceptive girl who finds Night Class to be scary. She is one of the few girls with no interest in the Night Class and not intimidated by Zero, frequently joining Yuki to tease him while maintaining that Yuki is the only one capable of dealing with him.


WINNIE MINAMI - Nadeshiko (Natalie) Shindo is a shy, but daring Day Class student, and like the rest of the other Day Class girls, she first appears as silly, because of her giddy admiration of the Night Class.

NOAH BASSETT - Kasumi (Michael) Kageyama is the president of the Day Class students and is the typical straight A student. He has a crush on Night Class student Raya but she never returns the affection.



"NIGHT CLASS" STUDENTS (VAMPIRES)

Night Class students are young vampires who attend Cross Academy and live in the Moon Dormitory, while wearing white uniforms. They are offsprings of elite families in vampire society and are of noble blood, gathered by Cain Kuran, in order to pursue peace between humans and vampires. They are extremely beautiful and highly intelligent. As they are nocturnal and sensitive to sunlight, they attend classes during the night and sleep during the day.


WILLIAM HANSON - Akatsuki (Leo) Kain is Joel's cousin and considered one of "Lord Cain's right-hand men." While the Day Class girls have nicknamed him "Wild", Kain is actually mellower than Aido and his laid-back attitude and association with Aido frequently sees him getting into trouble, despite not being directly responsible. Since Aido is lazy, Kain is left to clean their room when he's out, making Aido mistakenly believe their room gets cleaner on its own. Kain is incredibly perceptive and frequently sensitive to others' feelings, most particularly with his cousins, Aido and Raya's. Kain has the ability to conjure and control fire. He has been in love with Raya ever since they were kids, but never reveals his true feelings to her because she is in love with Cain. His protectiveness over Raya is the only thing preventing him from fully devoting himself to Cain like Aido.

AARON STYLES - Hanabusa (Joel) Aido nicknamed "Idol" by the Day Class girls, Aido is well known among the Night Class along with his cousin Leo to be "Lord Cain's right hand". His fierce admiration for Cain borders though extremely loyal, Aido has a tendency to overstep his boundaries, which results in Cain punishing him if discovered (often by slapping him). A noble-class vampire who can conjure and control ice, Aido often appears cheerful and friendly one moment, but vindictive and cruel the next. In spite of his seeming capriciousness, he is a dedicated and serious individual. He is often irritated at Yuki and her naive ways and he resents the fact Yuki is given special attention from "Lord Cain".

DAKOTA SANCHEZ - Rima Toya is one of the youngest Night Class students and she works as a model alongside Senri Shiki. Rima is smart and usually appears uninterested and indifferent. She is often blunt and has a fairly quick temper. She possesses a personality similar to Shiki. Rima possesses lightning or electricity related abilities. She shares a fondness for Pocky with Shiki.

BRIELLE NIELSEN - Ruka (Raya) Souen is a female noble vampire with the ability to weave illusions. She has been in love with Cain Kuran since she was a child and thus remains close to him as a faithful friend. However, she ironically remains unaware of Leo's unrequited love for her. She is also long-time friends to her cousins Joel and Leo. She has an intense jealousy towards any humans that raise Cain's interest. Despite all this, she continues to maintain an unrequited love for Cain.

JAZMINE ARROYO - Seiren is a student of the Night Class, and is Cain's unofficial bodyguard. She appears emotionless, never showing anything more than a neutral expression on her face. Seiren is usually the first to defend Cain from anyone regarded as a threat to his safety. Seiren also appears to serve Cain in the capacity of a spy or informant. In addition, she practices martial arts to use herself as a weapon against enemies.

CALVIN KEITH - Senri Shiki is one of the youngest Night Class students and works alongside Rima Toya as a model. His mother is a former actress, who's become mentally unstable; Senri got his job when someone scouted him when his mother took him to work. He has a whip-like weapon which develops from his blood. Similar to Rima Toya, He is usually impassive, and often detached to the rest of the vampires except for Rima and Isaac.

OLIVER MACKENZIE - Takuma (Isaac) Ichijo is the vice-president of the Night Class. He is an aristocratic vampire nearly as powerful as Cain, whom he is close to and respects. With his cheerful and enthusiastic demeanor, Isaac appears very "un-vampire like", lacking the dark atmosphere that surrounds most vampires and making him appear more like a human. Isaac maintains a close friendship with Senri Shiki and Rima Toya.

HUNTERS

Vampire hunters were created ten thousand years ago by one of the progenitors of the vampire race who desired to give humans a chance to defend themselves against the vampires that were turning the human race into their slaves. By drinking her blood, she poisoned the humans, and those who survived became vampire hunters who developed accelerated healing, the ability to sense vampires, and use magic to detect and detain vampires. Vampire hunters are capable of wielding anti-vampire weapons, such as swords and guns, that will only harm vampires and are the only weapons capable of killing the immortal Pureblood vampires. Their abilities were then passed on to their children; however, as a result of sharing some vampire instincts, twins are rare, normally devouring each other in the womb or are stillborn. They set up an association of hunters with rules and regulations that they must follow in order to hunt vampires. The hunters maintain a list of vampires who have become dangerous and violated the rules as defined in the treaty with the vampires.


ERICH HESS - Headmaster Kaien Cross is over 200 years old, the oldest and most powerful known vampire hunter, nicknamed "The Fangless Vampire". In spite of being a vampire hunter, Kaien maintained friendships with several Pureblood vampire families, especially the Kurans. Kaien adopted Yuki and also took Zero into his home after his parents were murdered. When Kaien retired as a vampire hunter and became the Headmaster of Cross Academy, he established the Day Class and Night Class with Kaname Kuran with dreams of promoting peace between humans and vampires. Kaien is an eccentric character who often provokes Zero and irritates other characters with his silly mannerisms, though he is a serious character when it comes to matters he cares about. He carries a hidden anti-vampire weapon.

IVAN GREGORY - Toga Yagari was Zero’s teacher in vampire hunting as a child. He is currently the top vampire hunter, since the Kiryu family is no longer around. He lost an eye to a vampire attack because Zero pleaded for him to have mercy on the turned human he was going to kill.
