Marian, Cross

クロス・マリアン

Allen's teacher is a scientist and one of the five Exorcist Generals. At the beginning of the story, he went on a journey and ceased communicating with HQ for four years. Allen fears him, a fact hinted at by the way most of his flashbacks involving his teacher end with some kind of traumatizing experience (usually humorous for readers). He also has a habit of going into debt and making Allen work it off for him. Bookman reveals that Cross has the unique ability to convert Akuma, making them work under his orders, though the method of conversion is unknown. Additionally, it is believed that Marian has the ability to control Noah's Ark (an ability granted to him by a traitor of the Noah family, who was subsequently killed by the Earl), although it is unknown if this hypothesis of the Earl's will prove correct. Marian seems to be the only person the Earl is seriously worried about.
Marian is the only exorcist with two Anti-Akuma weapons. His first is "Grave of Maria," which is a woman's corpse possessing a parasite-type Anti-Akuma weapon; she serves only Master Cross. The second is "Judgement," a giant revolver gun and Cross's own Anti-Akuma Weapon. Currently, Cross is missing after he spoke with Allen about his relation with the 14th.
