Kojou Akatsuki (暁 古城(あかつき こじょう), Akatsuki Kojō) is the male protagonist of the story. He is the older brother of Nagisa Akatsuki and the childhood friend of Yuuma Tokoyogi. Although he appears to be a normal high school student studying in Saikai Academy, he is actually the fourth primogenitor; the strongest vampire in existence, an immortal demon thought only to exist in legends. He became a vampire and the fourth primogenitor only three months before the beginning of the story. For much of the story, he cannot remember how he became a vampire and gets an intense headache when he attempts to. Yukina Himeragi is sent from the Lion King Organization to observe him and to eliminate him if he is deemed dangerous.

Personality

Kojou is a kind, empathetic person, who goes out of his way to help others. He is also an intelligent, sly and carefree individual. When angered, Kojou becomes quite fearsome adversary. Kojou has indomitable willpower, supernaturally strong charisma which has attracted the attention of both admirers and allies, allowing him to even befriend his enemies. Kojou is shown to care and worry about his sister a lot. He is however generally oblivious to the romantic feelings that others have of him due to his strong siscon nature.

History

Kojou was a normal human until he first met Avrora the 12th Kaleid Blood and became her blood servant, a pseudo vampire. Since then, he spent his daily life with her but those days didn't last long until she ordered him to destroy her and became the fourth primogenitor. In addition, he lost his memories regarding the incident and the days they spent together. However, he later regained some portions of it after fighting Giada, the third primogenitor disguised as Avrora using the No.14 Grimoire in attempt to recover his lost memories. He fully regained his memories alongside Asagi after Yukina performed a ritual on them.

He first met Yuuma when he was trying to retrieve Nagisa's hat which was stuck on a branch at the end of a cliff. He looked for Yuuma at her regular spot where she used to hide and watch both siblings everyday and asked for her help. Without waiting for a respond he quickly grabbed her hand and got back the hat together. However, after they did so Kojou nearly fell off the cliff only to be saved by her, he later thanked her and said that she's pretty strong. A while later after everyone introduced themselves. He first met Motoki and Asagi during middle school.

He first met Avrora at Fairy's Coffin. Kojou used his body to protect his sister and Avrora from the terrorist attack leaving him on the verge of death. Avrora admired his courage and turned Kojou into her blood servant. Avrora ordered him to destroy her alongside "Root" and chose him as the 12 Kaleid Blood's successor.

Plot

The Right Arm of the Saint

Returning from a study group, he senses that a girl is following him. He tries to lose her, but then spots her being harassed by demons. A fight ensues, and Kojou steps in before things escalate further. He then catches a glimpse of her panties and she leaves in disgust, but drops her wallet. Inside contains her student ID and name, Yukina Himeragi.

They meet again the next day, where she explains her task and the significance of him being a primogenitor. One night, the two head to a convenience store, when an explosion occurs. They investigate the source and discover Rudolf Eustach and Astarte. They began to battle, but it abruptly ends when Kojou loses control of his familiar.

Bride of the Dark God

Kojou receives an unusually heavy package from Dimitrie Vatler. Though suspicious, he and Yukina decide to open it, and discovers a girl inside. They later identify her as Celesta Ciate.

The 4th Primogenitor on the run

Kojou's father, Gajou Akatsuki, returns suddenly and brings Nagisa to mainland Japan for undisclosed reasons. As the days pass, he becomes more concerned about her, and even more so when a corrupted image of a magic circle is sent to his phone.

Abilities

Despite being relaxed, he has repeatedly shown himself to be very intelligent, intelligent and quick to learn; Although these traits are not usually shown because they tend to charge without thinking, but can be impressively logical, observational, deductive and tactical. These traits make him an excellent leader.

Enhanced Vampiric Abilities: Kojou possesses supernatural strength, durability, agility, consciousness, speed, senses, regenerative abilities, pheromones, endurance and immortality. Being the Fourth Primogenitor, his incredible powers are far above most vampires. Kojou is absolutely immortal, which means that he does not get old or sick and will recover quickly from any damage he receives, even from discarding or complete incineration.

Familiar Summoning: Kojou has twelve familiars who are manifestations of his vampire's powers. Initially, these familiars would not obey Kojou completely and would often go crazy. This is due to the fact that he refused to drink human blood and, therefore, would not recognize him as their master. However, he was able to control his familiars and summon them properly once he drank blood.
