Edaniel

Edaniel is a fictional character created by M. Alice LeGrow for the Bizenghast series.

Appearance
One of four soul-less beings created by the Mausoleum, Edaniel serves as a guide to newcomers, as well as preforming other duties, such as taking census of the many spirits held within the Mausoleum's walls. His favorite form is that of a green cat (though he stated on his blog "IDaniel" that the color is, in fact, grass stain), while his "true" form is that of a handsome, curly-haired blond.



Personality
While he is frequently the main comic relief, spouting random inanity and asking nearly everyone he meets to "make out" with him, he is also quite intelligent in matters pertaining to ghosts and the Mausoleum itself. Throughout his time with her, he has (though not quite as much so as his brother) become attached to Dinah, and showed genuine concerned for her welfare when she became depressed after Vincent's death.

He states that, while he has no soul of his own, he and his siblings were made of pieces of human souls. The Hooded Angel apparently has power to regulate his antics as well, as Edaniel once commented (also on his blog) that it told him he could no longer date humans-- much to his displeasure.
