Haji
Haji is Saya's first, and only living, chevalier. They first met when he was bought by Joel to be her companion, with hopes that they might mate and create more specimens for future experimentation. Haji lived with her in Joel's mansion for many years, growing up while she never aged. One day he slipped and fell from a cliff attempting to pick a flower that Saya wanted as a present for Joel's birthday. Misunderstanding an earlier conversation between Haji and Joel about why Saya lives on blood and wanting to save him, Saya feeds him some of her blood, unwittingly turning him into a "chevalier." Saya has felt some guilt over this through the years, but when she apologized, Haji assured her that he had no regrets as it allows him to always be at her side while she lives her dream of traveling the world with her sword.

Haji plays the cello, a skill he learned from Saya. He usually carries his cello in a large black case that he can use as a blunt weapon and a shield, as well as to carry Saya's sword. Haji also fights with a handful of silver daggers that he keeps on hand. As with most chevalier, Haji doesn't need to eat nor sleep, and he stays awake while Saya eats, sleeps, or goes into long periods of hibernation. Unlike Diva's chevaliers, Haji never makes a full transformation into a chiropteran form, however this is by his own choice rather than a limitation of his power. He keeps his right hand bandaged most of the time to disguise the fact that it became permanently stuck in chiropteran form since Saya injured it while going crazy from being forced awake decades ago in Vietnam.
