When we talk about fantasy manhwa, the Noblesse manhwa characters are undoubtedly one of the most fascinating ones due to the blend of their characters including Nobles, modified humans, and ordinary humans. The story follows “Noblesse” Cadis Etrama Di Raizel, who has woken up in the modern digital world after hundreds of years of slumber. To fit into the contemporary world and conceal his true identity, he tries to adopt the human traits with his superpowers. However, hiding his true nature would be difficult with the dark powers lurking around him. And, to make this narrative rich and one of its kind, Noblesse has some of the most powerful fantasy manhwa side characters – let’s read all about them!
Regis K Landegre
The clan leader of the Landegre Clan, Regis K. Landegre is a student of Ye Ran High and dresses formally in suits. He is conservative like his grandfather Gejutel and very particular about elegance. He is also one of the most elegant fantasy manhwa characters. Like other Nobles, Regis protects humans; however, his father, Rousare, was killed by some traitorous modified humans.
Skills and Abilities
- Regis is the heir to the Landegre Clan’s soul weapon Regasus. He can summon the soul weapon at his will. The soul weapon has the form of a huge, black lance. After acquiring the Regasus his spiritual and physical abilities are increased – he emerges with an armored glove and a pair of knight boots.
- As a Noble, his common power is telepathy. Regis and Seira have established a psychic link that works up to a certain distance. They can feel each other’s presence and communicate.
- Aura Manipulation – Regis can also generate electricity in his hand and shoot it as a powerful beam. In the battle against Shark, he releases a large portion of his aura to heighten his speed and strength. He can harness his crimson coloured spiritual energy and use it as a spear-like bolt.

M-21
M-21 is one of the most powerful noblesse manhwa characters. Despite his unwillingness, M-21 was experimented upon by Dr. Crombel and the Union. As a result of this experiment, he lost all the memories of his past life. M-21 was initially considered a failed experiment until Cadis Etrama Di Raizel awakened his powers. Currently, he is a member of the RK group and also works as a security officer at Ye Rank High School. M-21 is usually clad in a formal black suit with long silver-grey hair that reaches his shoulder.
Skills And Abilities
- During the M-Series experiment werewolf modification ability was implanted into M-21, which is the source of his transformation power. After much training with Karias, he gained control over his transformation and can now retain his consciousness. He is just as powerful as werewolves.
- He has also displayed incredible regeneration. Although the attacks of Nobles are imbued with their power, M-21, as a modified human, has quickly healed from their wounds.
- M-21 used to practice the ability to resist mind control with his comrade M-24.
- Very few members of their clan can use the aura manipulation power – M-21 is one of them.
Noblesse Manhwa Characters: Takeo
Ex-member of the DA-5, Takeo was tricked into working for the Union by Dr. Aris. After learning the truth, he joined Cadis Etrama Di Raizel and Frankenstein along with Tao. He has long purple hair and blue eyes, and his tied ponytail reaches his waist. Takeo’s kind nature is portrayed by how he treats younger kids because of his memories of his sister.
Skills And Abilities
- Like Raizel, Frankenstein, Regis, and Seira, Takeo also has the power of resistance to mind control.
- To temporarily boost his energy, Takeo can use the D drug like a few other Noblesse manhwa characters from the Union.
- After the implantation of Dark Spear, Takeo’s spiritual and physical ability drastically increases. He gains two-bladed knuckles from this dark aura. He can imbue his regular bullets with Dark Spear.
Krano
One of the most powerful Noblesse characters, when it comes to werewolf was Krano. He belonged to the group of four werewolves (Gorma and Braang being the other two werewolves) commanded by Dorant to capture Muzaka. He had light blond hair and was clad in white robes. During his transformation, Krano developed moss-green fur on his arms and the corners of his abs. In case of further transformation, he developed scales, his wrists grew longer, and the fur on his shoulders. Initially, Krano’s personality was composed. He was careful while fighting Frankenstein. However, his arrogance came into view during his fight with Rael Kertia.
Skills And Abilities
- Krano could manipulate his aura. We see this during his battle with Rael, in which he fires a beam from his mouth.
- Like all werewolves, he can transform his physical self into a much larger and muscular being during a battle. This transformation increases his physical abilities and overall strength and power.
- Being very fast, Krano could easily match the speed of Frankenstein. Surprisingly, he could keep up with Rael, the fastest clan leader.
Mount
Bulky, blue skin and muscular build Mount was a male werewolf. He wears white trousers and has a red heart tattooed on his right bicep. He joined Drakon, Kaiyo, and Kuharu, along with Traitor Nobles, to capture Lukedonia under the command of Maduke. Mount was a childlike werewolf who jumped into action without wondering about the consequences.
Abilities
Being a werewolf, Mount was a powerful warrior of his kind. He can transform his body into a much larger creature.
Noblesse Manhwa Characters: Tao
Like Takeo, Tao is an ex-member of DA-5. Later, he switched allegiances and joined Raizel after learning that the DA-5 group had been created for Kranz to absorb their powers. Tao convinces Takeo to leave the Union. Moreover, Tao has one of the most unique appearances among the Noblesse manhwa characters. His charming black bowl hair cut with a white strip on the right side covers most of his forehead.
Skills And Abilities
- From being around Rai, Seira, Frankenstein, and Regis for so long, Tao also learned the skill of resistance to mind control.
- Tao is also one of the most intellectual Noblesse characters. He was originally designed for his intellect of technology to seize control of systems and discover the enemy’s movements. His skills in gathering intelligence and counterintelligence place him as one of the heads of DA-5 and the leader of RK.
- Like the other DA-5 members, Tao can also use the D drug.
- He can collect electricity from his surroundings and can defend himself and attack his enemies using electrified wire. During his battle with Lutai, he made a spear using the electrified wires and pierced Lutai.
Dr. Aris
Dr. Aris is a high-ranking Union scientist and creator of the DA-5 experiment (‘DA’ named after Dr. Aris). We see her clad in goth style with her golden eyes and red hair reaching up to her waist. Although initially she seems child-like, we see her cruel personality when it comes to experiments. For instance, she tells her assistant, Yuri to collect souvenirs (humans she will use for her experiments). Her anger is visible in the series when Frankenstein disobeys her and leaves. As a result, she orders her human-machines to kill him.
Skills And Abilities
- Aris has the power to absorb the life force of modified humans. This enhances her powers similar to Kranz.
- Her pink nano suit with blue outlines helps her to manifest two large energy whips from her palms.
- After the fight with Frankenstein, she allowed Dr. Crombel to enhance her body to increase her strength. Her power increased significantly to the same level as a Union Elder. Due to this power enhancement, her lifespan lessened and also gave her fatal side effects.
Yuri
Yuri worked for the 12th Elder as Dr. Aris’ assistant, but, he was a spy for Dr. Crombel. He wore a grey suit and glasses which covered his golden eyes. The readers initially know Yuri as a loyal, polite, and punctual man. However, his loyalty was later revealed to be with Dr. Crombel.
Skills And Abilities
- Like Aris, Yuri allowed Dr. Crombel to alter him with further enhancement, providing Yuri with more power and strength. However, there are several side effects of this power enhancement, one of which is a shorter lifespan.
- According to Frankenstein, Yuri utilized the power of gas manipulation, through which he could release gas from his palms to attack and control his mind.
- Yuri could also shoot beams of green-white energy from his fingers by channeling his aura. These beams can blow through large buildings, vaporizing all the obstacles in their trail.
