## Profile

### Identity

Caster's true identity is **Undertaker**, a seceded Grim Reaper. He is also a former Aristocrat of Evil and informant to the Phantomhive house since Vincent Phantomhive's time. He used to work as a funeral director for normal society.

Undertaker is a retired Grim Reaper, and as Grelle Sutcliff and Ronald Knox claim, a "deserter." He had served as a Grim Reaper for a long time, repeatedly reaping souls in a relatively peaceful, indifferent fashion. This earned him the status of the best Grim Reaper in the Retrieval Division. During his time at the Dispatch, Undertaker was only known by his registration number: 136649.

Eventually, he grew tired of the mundane process: Seventy years ago, Undertaker tried to leave the Dispatch and in his attempt, he destroyed half of its headquarters. Around twenty years later, he tried it again and succeeded.

Sometime later, Undertaker established his funeral parlor, began to experiment and tamper with human life, and became acquainted with Vincent Phantomhive. His intermittent business relations with said Earl earned him the status as one of the "Aristocrats of Evil".

### Appearance

Undertaker is a lean man with long gray hair—a part of it is tied in a single braid on the right side of his head—black fingernails, and a jagged scar across his face, neck, and left pinky finger; he has more scars all over his body. Like other Grim Reapers, he has chartreuse phosphorescent eyes, which he usually keeps hidden under his hair.

Undertaker often dresses in a black robe, a long crooked top hat, and a gray scarf strapped across his chest and knotted by the hips. He wears black earrings; an emerald ring on his left index finger; a band of prayer beads around his neck; and, formerly, a chain with seven mourning lockets around his hip.

While still an active Grim Reaper, Undertaker wore half-framed silver-square glasses, a black trench coat, a white dress shirt, a black tie, black gloves, and black shoes. He did not have any scars on his face and neck, but he did have his ear piercings.

Undertaker's Death Scythe consists of a long curving silver blade extending from a miniature skeleton, whose skull is wrapped in a thorny vine, at the top of the handle; the rib-cage of the skeleton connects to the narrow stem of the handle, which ends in a lower backbone.

### Personality

Undertaker is an eccentric, enigmatic individual who giggles frequently, appreciates laughter, enjoys frightening others and provoking reactions with his strange mannerisms, and spends a considerable amount of time in coffins.

Because corpses, many of which victims of the underworld, are ordinarily delivered to his place of business, Undertaker is able to inspect them, whom he refers to as his "guests," remove their organs for research, and obtain useful information, which he refuses to exchange for "the Queen's money," as he dislikes Queen Victoria; rather, he expects those seeking information on the corpses to amuse him in some way.

Undertaker is profoundly attached to the Phantomhive house, to the degree that he seceded from the Grim Reaper Dispatch to focus his efforts entirely on manipulating life and death in hopes of restoring the late Phantomhives to life. Despite years of experimentation where he resurrects the dead via connecting fake records to their Cinematic Records so that such will never end, he lacks the ability to construct a soul; the corpses he revives are Bizarre Dolls, which are, more or less, "flesh dolls without a self." Nevertheless, he, with steadfast resolve, continues to experiment and sees beauty in his Bizarre Dolls where others see depravity. He considers "Ciel Phantomhive" his masterpiece.

Undertaker regards a particular chain of seven mourning lockets as his "treasure." (Engraved on one of the lockets is: 13 July 1866, Cloudia P.) He eventually entrusts his treasure to Ciel Phantomhive.

## Abilities

### Noble Phantasm

#### **Death Scythe; "Reaper's Harvester in the Dark"**

Undertaker's Death Scythe takes the form of a stereotypical Grim Reaper scythe. It is silver in color, with a skull connecting the blade to the handle, which is wrapped in silver wires, like the bottom of the handle.

#### **Death Book Mark and Pen; "Reaper's Notes of Rewriting"**

In the anime, Undertaker is seen with a pink bookmark that allows him to edit someones live, though it does have limits. in Episode 18, all Undertaker could do to stop Angela Blanc's rampage in the Abbey is to write Sebastian, Grell, and William into the abby.
