Primogenitors (真祖 Shinso, lit. "True Ancestor"), or Progenitors, are Vampires who were previously Devas and as such, the first amongst all, becoming the oldest amongst all. They are the most powerful, with powers rivaling the strength of the whole of national armies.
The three original Primogenitors kept a power balance between them, as each Primogenitor has the same power as a large military force. When Kojou Akatsuki was "born", an imbalance of power ensued, and the three Primogenitors debated over the decision of whether to go to war, have him killed or let him rule.
The Fourth Primogenitor is an artificial Vampire created by the three Primogenitors and Devas (demigods of an advanced ancient civilization) as the strongest weapon to help them fight Cain during his return. After its creation, they deemed it too powerful and decided that it cannot be controlled. They later split its powers into 12 beings (12 ribs) known as "Kaleid Blood". The twelve Kaleid Bloods gained human form and are in charge of observing "Root". "Root" resides within Avrora Florestina, the 12th Kaleid Blood, and acts as a guardian for "Root". She is sealed within an ancient ruin known as Fairy's Coffin. When rumors spread that the Fourth Primogenitor had awakened, various factions began to fear that Cain's return might be near and started preparing for what is yet to come.
History[]
Abilities[]
Beast Vassal Summoning: As with most Vampires, Primogenitors are capable of summoning Beast Vassals. All Primogenitors have more than one Beast Vassals.
- The First Primogenitor has control of 72 Beast Vassals.
- The Second Primogenitor has control of 19 Beast Vassals.
- The Third Primogenitor has control of 27 Beast Vassals.
- The Fourth Primogenitor has control of 12 Beast Vassals.
Immortality: Primogenitors cannot be killed by normal means. Any lethal blow to their body can be healed rapidly, and even the most fatal injuries (such as decapitation) are unable to end them. Kojou Akatsuki demonstrated this ability, having been decapitated and left to his observer's arms, then effortlessly coming back to life unscathed.
Enhanced Vampiric Abilities: They possess supernatural strength, speed, reflexes, and durability; they are much more powerful than normal Vampires.

Trivia[]
- The number of Beast Vassals the primogenitors can control might be based on:
- Solomon and his seventy-two pillars.
- The 19 Apostles of Bahá'u'lláh.
- The 27 stars of Nakshatra.
- The 12 Zodiac constellations.
