Biography
1998 anime
Character
Appearance
Knives is tall and toned, with a body akin to a Greek statue. He has sharp features, and wears his white-blond hair in a short crew-cut. For clothing, he simply wears one of the old Project Seeds bodysuits, sometimes with a raggedy poncho over it.
Personality
Knives comes across as cold and sociopathic. He prefers logic over emotion, seeing the acceptance and expression of emotion as a sign of weakness. When it comes to Vash, however, he can become very emotional. He seems to experience love as obsession and express it as possessiveness. His wrath is something to be feared when combined with the powers that he has.
Occupation
He's the series' main antagonist. His eventual goal is to destroy the humans on the planet who survived the Fall.
Family
Knives has one brother, Vash the Stampede, from whom he is estranged. Rem Saverem served as his adoptive mother.
Relationships
Rem Saverem
Knives' relationship to Rem is primarily that of mother-and-child.
Vash the Stampede
His relationship with Vash is that of an estranged sibling.
Legato Bluesummers
Knives' relationship to Legato is that of a god or lord - someone worthy of reverence.
Gung-Ho-Guns
Knives' personal army. Legato has control of them while Knives regenerates. He is the only member of the bunch to talk to Knives directly.
Nicholas D. Wolfwood
Wolfwood is the subordinate of a subordinate, and it is questionable if Knives even knows he exists in the anime.
Canonically, Knives has no lovers, as he holds humanity in the utmost contempt.
