Damnatio Kira

Damnatio Kira (ダムナティオ・キーラ) is a nobleman of the Clover Kingdom's House Kira, one of its royal families. He is also the chairman of the country's Magic Parliament.

Appearance
Damnatio is a pale-skinned man with short, dark hair combed back, except one lock that hangs down over the center of his forehead. He has a small, dark-colored dot just below his lower lip and above his chin.

He wears a dark-colored, long-sleeve robe that flares out at the collar. Over this he wears a light-colored stole, and underneath, he wears a pair of dark-colored boots.

Personality
Damnatio is shown to be manipulative person. He is considered coldly devoted to justice as he has tried and sentenced his own father in the past. More recently, he has stated at Asta's trial that there were two options regarding the outcome of the war with the elves; either Asta, a devil user be blamed for the events, or the Magic Knights would have to be investigated. As the Magic Knights (the overwhelmingly vast majority are nobility) are the core of the Clover Kingdoms defenses, he called the choice obvious. This shows that his aspirations are more politically based rather than justice based. Damnatio also shows extreme ruthlessness when he attempted to have Marie Adlai, a young child, tried and executed. When Asta protects her, Damnatio 'informs' Asta that escape is pointless, as even if he did escape, he would be a wanted man and everyone at the church he grew up in would have to be executed, a casual and overt threat.

Biography
Damnatio saves Augustus Kira Clover XIII from four anti-monarchist nobles. Afterwards, he senses an emergence of demonic possession, which he vows to bring to justice.

A few days later, Damnatio invites Asta and Secre Swallowtail to the Magic Parliament Courthouse to testify about the war. However, Damnatio has them arrested and puts them on trial for using Forbidden Magic, in an attempt to characterize them as devils and at fault for the war. When Asta is unable to prove the existence of another devil, Damnatio sentences Marie Adlai to be executed, and Asta is forced to protect her with his black form, revealing his devil's power.
