==Summary==
D, also known as Vampire Hunter D (吸血鬼ハンター"D") is a dhampir, half vampire, half human who travels around the Frontier in search of the Nobility. In almost every book it is noted that D has superior strength, skills and knowledge in comparison to other dhampirs. It is hinted that this is because he has some special connection to the Sacred Ancestor (It is generally regarded that D is his son, though this has never been explicitly stated) and that he is the result of crossbreeding experiments performed by the Sacred Ancestor to halt the inevitable decline of the Nobility.

Standard Equipment:
*D's Longsword: D's main weapon which he carries around strapped to his back. "Limning an elegant arc that was quite different from the straight blades cherished by so many other hunters, it spoke of the vast expanses of time it's owner had traveled." There is a high-polymer line wound about the sheath that can be threaded through the sword guard to prevent the sword from being drawn, "like a peace string". Though the sword has been broken and the blade dulled on a number of occasions he is usually able to acquire another one just like it later on. Twin-Shadowed Knight depicts him getting a replacement in a room full of hundreds of weapons.
*Left Hand: D's talking Left hand, nicknamed "Lefty" by most. It has a variety of abilities tied to it, most notably it's many uses incorporating the four elements of Earth, Fire, Water, and Wind.
*Wooden Needles: Projectile needles made of wood that he carries. D is able to throw them with such speed and precision, they set aflame when thrown due to air friction, piercing bullet proof glass and armor.
*Blue Pendant: A Mysterious Pendant of unknown origin, worn around D's neck at all times. The Pendant can begin to glow, causing all technology within range of it to deactivate. It is unknown how the pendant itself works, and its possible D has more than one, as he left his Pendant in Volume 1 with Dan and has since then replaced it.
*Dagger: A common weapon on the Frontier. D carries a black dagger with an eight-inch blade.
Intelligence: Extraordinary Genius (Nobles are by nature extremely intelligent, not only in their ability to manipulate or execute military tactics, but also their highly advanced technology. The nobility have invented technology such as an android who can hold a pocket reality full of stars, machines that can cure previously impossible to cure diseases, machines that can turn their physical forms into gases or illusions, ships capable of Massively FTL+ travel, machines that can cover the universe in darkness over time, coffins with infinite sized dimensions and many traps, Mobius Books and the Blood Fountain, as well as much more. The nobility were also capable of predicting fate with 100% accuracy through purely mathematics. Furthermore, D was able to outwit Lawrence Valcua in military tactics, with Valcua being only second to the Sacred Ancestor, the progenitor of the race, and D also did so rather casually with only a small group compared to Valcua's army. As the Sacred Ancestor's son, he would also inherit his knowledge. Has no mercy on his enemies, no matter their age or gender, is a master of hand to hand combat, has photographic memory, a Greater Noble trained in swordsmanship for centuries is no match for D's skill). Nigh-Omniscient via The Akashic Records.
Weaknesses: Once every five years, D needs to bury himself due to his Dhampir nature afflicting him with "sun sickness". As shown in Volume 1 from his death at the hands of Rei-Ginsei, staking D through the heart will kill him. | It is unknown if piercing D's heart can still kill him.
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
*Four Elements: Utilizing the elements of Earth, Fire, Water and Wind, Lefty is able to use them for a large number of things, such as manipulating space, freeing D from sealing, healing, or even resurrection.
*Eldritch Aura: D's Aura can passively induce fear into Humans and Nobility alike, and is also capable of leaving his opponents completely paralyzed. In some other cases, D has also showcased the ability to use his aura in order to calm people's emotions. His aura can even affect machines with no mind or soul, and is further amplified in his Full Vampire Form.
*Unearthly Beauty: D has a supernatural beauty, which can attract both men and women alike, and could make even a mindless machine swoon over his looks. His unearthly beauty contains properties of both genders, such as the elegant features of a woman, and the imposing, strong figure of a man.
*Full Vampire Form: D can take on the full form of the Nobility at will, amplifying his powers immensely, to a point he could easily stomp those that are superior to his base form. In this form his aura becomes enhanced, and his abilities become stronger, as shown when he was able to negate Valcua's regeneration, even when the latter could survive his Fount of Life being severed. This form also makes D become bloodlusted.
*Black Blood: D's blood is highly toxic to those that drink it, and can burn through Nobles like acid, making it extremely lethal to other Vampires. Lefty has showcased the ability to utilize D's blood as a weapon, showcased when he fired strings of black blood to fend off Bingo's Dreams and The Wraith Knights.
*Light of Creation: An ability showcased originally by Toma which was gifted to him by the Sacred Ancestor, The Light of Creation is described as being the purest of all light. Stark radiant sunlight that pushes back the darkness, warms the earth, and gives life all things.
*Miracle Bloodlight: A miracle of blood red light that flashes out from D's eyes. It has the power the completely negate and bypass the true immortality gained by Duke Gilzen, as well as nullifying his evolution based abilities and resistances. It can induce great fear, and caused Budges to feel as if his non-physical form was being torn apart.
