Name: クロード・フォースタス / Claude Faustus
Voice Actor: 櫻井孝宏 Takahiro Sakurai
Info/Catchphrase: トランシー家執事、クロード・フォースタス 私は、あなたを『飽くまで』貪りたい
Butler of the Trancy Household, Claude Faustus, "I want to greedily devour you to the bitter end."
Or " I am a demon and I want to greedily devour you."
The official website staff blog has referred to him as a new butler.
Appearance He has black, short hair and wears glasses similar to those worn by William Spears, a character from the previous Kuroshitsuji series. He has yellow, slanted eyes and a somewhat angular facial structure. His chin is quite flat. Like Sebastian, Claude is able to transform his body. In the first episode he is seen in the form of a spider before making the contract with Alois. He and Sebastian appear to be similar in height.
He wears an outfit similar to the one Sebastian Michaelis wears. But Sebastian wears a tie while Claude wears a ribbon.
It has been shown that, like Sebastian, the mark of the his contract with Alois is on his left hand covered by the glove he wears. However, it seems that the mark is not always visible, only becoming so when nearing Alois's. In Episode 4, it was shown that his tongue is remarkably long, enough so that he can lick the bridge of his nose.
Personality He has a very different personality from Sebastian Michaelis, in that he speaks and acts emotionlessly not even responding to direct taunts such as Alois undoing his buttons moments after Claude fixed them. He seems to know Sebastian well, although within moments of seeing each other they begin to fight. Claude is loyal to his master and knows his master's darkness[2].
Sebastian and he are shown to be sensitive in each other's line, as his "gold to dark blue" line is teased by Sebastian, he also teases Sebastian's line "I am a demon and a butler". Both are nemesis to each other. But later, he is shown to be having a peace deal with Sebastian. His personality completely changes after tasting Ciel's blood in Episode 7, his eyes grew red in hunger, judging from the fact he left Alois lying down in pain while licking Ciel's blood off his face.
After this, Claude is very different then he was in the first episode. He seems to become erratic, often acting almost randomly; dancing, making doilies, etc. After taking possession of Ciel, Claude is very forward with his actions toward him. He admires how even his skin is and how white his teeth are, fascinated by him in every way. Claude even kisses his foot while dressing him. (Although this was also done to anger the watching Sebastian, who tore an entire forest apart in rage).
