Profile

Yuki's adoptive father, who also took Zero into his home for several years. Headmaster Cross dreams of peace between humans and vampires, and established the Night Class to promote understanding between the two races. Cross is shown to have a habit of provoking Zero and is eccentric in some ways, but he has a serious side as well. It is revealed in Chapter 27 that he is a former vampire hunter. He also seems to be close to Kaname, and knows Kaname's parents (both of whom are dead and founded the Cross Academy peace treaty), since he is indebted to them. He has always known that Yuki was a pureblood vampire, but chose not to reveal it.
In Chapter 39, it is revealed that his vampire hunter weapon appears to be some sort of a sword.
In Chapter 41, he refuses to kill any vampires and only intends to protect the Night Class who are protecting the day class. He also has no intention of letting the hunters have Yuki.
