Azazel

アザゼル

Pinpointing Azazel's personality is difficult, since he is simultaneously laid-back and serious, as well as wise and insane. Azazel is a research fanatic, particularly regarding Sacred Gears. He is also a pacifist, preferring to talk his way out of trouble rather than resorting to violence. He has shown deep care for his fellow Fallen Angels, Shemhazai and Baraqiel. He is also very charismatic, managing to endear his Fallen Angel followers.
Azazel also harbors complicated feelings about the fact that many of his friends and acquaintances are married and have families. It is suggested that Azazel is a pervert, given his fondness for breasts and his claim of having maintained harems over the millennia. Furthermore, his stated reason for becoming a Fallen Angel millennia ago was lust.
Originally an Angel from Heaven, Azazel once wrote a report on his Artificial Sacred Gear, the Blazer Shining Aura Darkness Blade, which Michael published to Azazel's embarrassment. Azazel later lost his place in the Heavens after having sex with a human woman, becoming a Fallen Angel as punishment from God. Shortly thereafter, he created the Fallen Angels' organization, Grigori, and became its Governor General. During the Great War between the Three Factions, the Fallen Angels were the first to retreat due to Azazel's order after he had lost many of his subordinates. After retreating from the Great War, Azazel began researching Sacred Gears, creating Artificial Sacred Gears. He also made a contract with one of the Five Great Dragon Kings, Fafnir, during his research on Sacred Gears.
Azazel makes his first appearance in Volume 4, introducing himself to Issei. He later attended the meeting between the leaders of the three factions and was the one who proposed the peace treaty.
