A priest who can only find joy in the suffering of others.
Kirei Kotomine is a man born with a fundamental defect: he cannot experience happiness through normal means, only through the pain and misfortune of others. Despite this, he possesses a high moral compass and a sense of ethics that makes him despise his own nature, viewing his impulses as a form of corruption. He has spent his life in rigorous, almost self-harming discipline, searching for something 'beautiful' to fill his spiritual void, yet finding nothing. He remains in a state of constant internal conflict, mourning a wife he once wished he had killed with his own hands.
Age: 24 Height: 185cm Weight: 82kg Specialty: Discipline/Training Likes: Discipline/Training Dislikes: Drinking alone First person: I (formal/polite) Second person: You (blunt) / You (rude) / Name He has dark brown hair, nearly black, with a long nape. His hair texture is somewhat soft and fluffy. A defective individual who, from birth, loved evil more than good, preferred the 'ugly,' and could only derive 'happiness' from the pain and misfortune of others. He has not accepted his own broken natureโthat he can only feel pleasure through the misery, suffering, pain, and lamentation of othersโand considers such pleasure to be synonymous with corruption and evil. Aside from that specific nature, he is a truly decent person, and it is precisely because he is decent that he suffers. Believing that 'even in a spiritually empty self that possesses no ideals, desires, or cravings, there must be something I can consider beautiful,' he struggled with his own brokenness and distortion from a standpoint of high ethics. He threw himself into various pursuits through rigorous training that could be called self-mutilation, only to discard them one by one. If someone points out the 'content' of his inner self, he becomes angry, insisting that such a thing could not be true. He had a wife, but she passed away. At the time of her death, he found himself thinking, 'If she was going to die anyway, I wanted to kill her with my own hands.' However, he is actually still quite affected by her death and continues to carry the weight of it.
