Personality:
The End of Childhood, the Beginning of a Monster;
For a young 13 yr. old boy no one would think of one to be as cold-hearted, and deceitful as Ciel Phantomhive. Growing up through ten years of his life, Ciel was an extremely attached and happy young boy. Always shy and seen clinging to his father when he was invited to dinner parties, or outside playing with his cousin, Elizabeth. There is no information if Ciel ever attended school, mostly likely home-school so his only means of interaction were through his family, and the household butler, Tanaka, who he referred to as "Grandpa."
But all his happiness was taken away on the night of his 10th birthday. On Dec. 14th his family was murdered, his house burned down, and the culprits kidnapped Ciel to sell him off to the highest bidder that happened to be a satanic cult. Kept in a cage with dying, starving children, Ciel would be let out at times only to be beaten, abused, and violated. He was sealed with the cult's mark on his back, and that was the end of his childhood state.
Fear turned to hatred, and constantly praying to God brought no miracles. It was then that Ciel turned his back on God, and devoted himself to avenging his family and his pride for what he had been through. Yet all of it soon turned back to fear once more, as Ciel witnessed every boy sacrificed for eternal glory, wealth, and power. Again and again, death kept coming back, and he constantly has been taunted by nightmares re-living that very night. Anything be it knives, witnessing death, screams, it all reminds him of when he was chosen to come forth and also be killed like all the rest. However, Ciel survived. How? By catching the eye of the demon that had been summoned thanks to him. Ciel asked for power, power greater than anyone else, with his hand extended out towards the demon, he created a contract.
Power to Pride;
On his return back, it is already seen that Ciel no longer smiles, nor thinks like a child. For his small form, that people constantly tease, he is quite grown-up. Yes, a little childish at times when it comes to conversating with his butler, or those that really annoy him, but still grown-up. He is extremely greedy, not for money, but for power. Under the command of Queen Victoria makes him that way. It is his responsibility to govern the underground world of England, to protect the weak, to be feared by the powerful, he wants to be known for his name as a Phantomhive. Over the years thanks to his family, they have struck fear into the hearts of those that have messed with them. [Which is the same reason for what lead to their demise] Ciel is no different, but because of his age, he has to work harder in getting what he wants. Whether that means gaining it through betrayal, death, and traps he will go through any means of accomplishment.
But this is all because of Sebastian. Without him he would be nowhere. He'd still be dead. But of course, he's too stubborn to even acknowledge his own help. When Sebastian had first met Ciel, he was still a brat. Whining, yelling, purposing to Sebastian that everything he did was right, and he was wrong. It wasn't until Sebastian had spoken up, threatening Ciel, that Ciel knew his place. Over the next few years, Sebastian had trained him to become the proper gentleman upholding the Phantomhive name. And with education, came his sour, prudent attitude towards Sebastian. An example being Ciel will always plan events at his manor, informing Sebastian it would be that evening, or the next day, testing out Sebastian's limits. Of course, a means of teasing, since Ciel knows very well he can accomplish it. After all he develops the motto of what can't a Phantomhive butler do. He can do anything and everything, because he is employed under that name. Creating somewhat of a love-hate relationship between the two. Except there is no methods of "love" involved. Just "I need you, you need me," type of relationship through means of hatred and annoyance for one another.
A Slightly Black Heart;
While Ciel does have a cold heart to him, he does show signs of affection towards individuals that are from his childhood or those few he is unable to save. During the Jack The Ripper case, Ciel is seen as "kind" for giving Mary Jane Kelly a grave. In his defense saying he knew he couldn't save her.
"I knew that I would not be able to save this woman. If I had only thought of her life first...there were any number of ways to rescue her that night. But I did not attempt any of them. I knew she could have been rescued...but my first priority was to capture Jack the Ripper. I knew that I would not save her life. I knew...and I let her die. Just as I let my own flesh and blood die."
While Sebastian replies back with calling him a coward for not killing the true person behind Jack the Ripper [his aunt], Ciel replies with,
"Because that was your job. I did not shoot because I believed you'd protect me even if you died doing so."
It isn't sure if Ciel said that merely to cover up his true nature behind why he stopped to kill his own relative. But it does show that he does "feel" at times. He deeply shows it when Elizabeth, his fiancee and cousin, is around. He protects her with his life, knowing that if he were to lose her, he'd lose the child inside of himself, and what he had left of his past. He fears the thought of losing everything all over again. Hypocritical? Perhaps. He will continue to deny that he has a heart, when he does.
Children Are Always Greedy;
Ciel is extremely competitive and crafty when it comes to winning at anything. He has even been given the nickname,"Game Prodigy," for the number of times he has won. Games, challenges, he does not like to lose to strangers nor to those closest to him. Or else he does turn into quite a bit of a sore loser showing off his childish/bratty side. It is seen in the earliest chapters when he discusses strategics in capturing criminals. He thinks of his missions, given to him through Queen Victoria, as a game. With Sebastian as his sword, shield, and pawn he moves him about the chess board as his winning piece. Using others he meets also as pawns in order to get the job done.
Two Sides To This Chess Piece;
An excellent actor when it comes to faking his attitude. First time meetings Ciel will smile happily at guests, talk brilliantly and passionately about others he envies, he'll care for "friends", and act as the proper gentleman. But for a split second you may see his true side. His twisted smirk, his cold, empty stare, a snicker, a boastful look, he'll conceal his true self from others as his act to gain their trust. It is fully seen during the Noah Circus Arc where he befriends a girl named Freckles, to get closer to the Circus Troupe that has been kidnapping children. In the end he brushes her off and orders Sebastian to kill her. Another arc in which his performance of his "kind" self is seen is in the "Sherlock Holmes," arc, where he must act as though he witnessed Sebastian's death. Crying, yelling, and denying Sebastian's death, he convinces everyone, when he and Sebastian planned it before that he would fake his death to capture the true criminal behind the party.
In the end Ciel is one nasty child. One that should not be underestimated, because he'll either destory you, or use you.
Abilites:
→ Power; Faustian Contract; His main ability comes from the contract he formed at the age of 10 with Sebastian Michaelis. The contract gives him the ability to call upon the demon whenever he is in danger by revealing his right eye that holds the seal. Or if Ciel is unable to call upon the demon, and he is in a life or death situation the demon will come to him. The contract also holds true that whatever Ciel asks, Sebastian will give. No matter how ridiculous the order his, he will fulfill it for his Master. --->
["The covenant between you and I...holds that you will assist me until I ,'achieve my objectives,' and protect my life until that day comes to pass...I command you. Do not betray me, always stay by my side. No matter what!"]
However as explained here that power most likely will be the one to be taken away. Without his butler around, and forced to be placed under care with a new family, Ciel won't ask for the ability back just yet.
→ Skilled fencer [Ciel had trained with Elizabeth's mother ever since he was a child. Back then he took fencing with a laid-back attitude, until Sebastian became his fencing instructor and now he has improved greatly]
→ Skilled in hunting and horseback [again he is the son of a rich aristocratic family. He knows very well how to use a gun/rifle when it comes to hunting, or simply defending himself]
→ Artistic [as a violinist, artist, and dancer [mainly in ballroom dances]]
→ Well-educated [he has been home-schooled ever since an early age, and excels in advantaged subjects that are not usually taught to children his age, a lot of them being business and literature. For his age here though he will be enrolling into the school for Freshman year of High School]
→ "Game Prodigy" [a master of any game, a favorite being chess [second being billiards]. He jokes towards the beginning of the manga that he is a greedy child, never truly satisfied with the games given to him, since he can easily defeat them all. He loves being the victor, if someone does defeat him, he will hold a grudge and suspicion on them for years to come]
Other: Small little notes that everyone should know about Ciel;
→ Ciel is diagnosed with asthma, and has been ever since an early age. There have only been two known attacks to ever take place in his 13 years, but it can easily be set off when Ciel catches a cold. Symptoms of an asthma attack would be high fever, nausea, and vomiting that would render Ciel unconscious for at least a day, depending on how severe the attack is.
→ Being born into a wealthy family has its shortcomings, especially when Ciel cannot do ANYTHING on his own. He doesn't know how to tie his own shoelaces, cook, clean, brush his teeth, brush his hair, get dressed, everything has been done for him by a servant since he was a child. To be placed into an environment where he will be off on his own will prove to be a problem. Some useful advice, if Ciel ever does lend a helping hand, it will turn more of a disaster than anything else.
→ Ciel is highly allergic to cats, but seeing as there are no animals here he is in no need to worry.
Third Person: It all came as a shock to Ciel. His eyes scanned his surroundings jumping from house to house, car to car, until his vision lined up to what was across from him. Nothing different, the same clean cut house, the same slick red car, what even was that odd contraption on wheels? This all certainly was different, and he knew right away that he was nowhere near the outskirts of London, or his home. Maybe even his world for that matter. Was that possible? Ha. Living in a world that was filled with demons and odd supernatural occurrences anything was possible. That's when it hit him...Where was Sebastian?
Looking around once more would prove to be suspicious and obvious that he was looking for someone. That chance was not to be taken, not when countless of other clueless individuals were outside looking for answers he could not give. A few steps forward, and Ciel stopped, re-assuring himself that this could not have been a dream, and continued on walking. Keeping a steady pace, Ciel wandered off, every so often glancing to his side to the few that were going about their day. Until he was certain that no one was around, he muttered a name.
"Sebastian."
No answer, nor appearance. A number of possibilities ran through his mind. It could have been that there was a greater distance between the two for Sebastian to sense him. Or...he wasn't present in this world at all. The thought of being on his own without any knowledge of the people nor the town scared Ciel slightly. Just slightly, to the point that he knew wherever he was he would have to adapt to survive. But also adapt so that he could find a way out.
