Brief bio
Age: Unknown— But Sebastian mentioned he was in Egypt at the time people were buried as mummies and had said it was 3,000 years ago, so he's probably 3,000 years and most likely older than that. Given the age, he's older before the year that Christ is born.

Physical appearance: 186cm or 6'1'', tall, dark, handsome with black hair and bangs that cover his face, quite a deep tenor English accent voice.

Clothes: Crisp, clean butler uniform made in the Victorian-Edwardian Era. Black tie. Albert silver pocket watch. And the Phanthomhive badge that marked him as the senior head butler. Shiny black leather shoes. White gloves. Otherwise, a very traditional dress for a Senior Head Butler.

Brief summary (Spoiler free): Kuroshitsuji aka Black Butler is a supernatural series with mystery and suspense with a setting that takes place in England, London in the late 1890s regency period during the reign of Queen Victoria. The story centered around a 13 year old boy, named Ciel Phantomhive and his bond with his demon butler, Sebastian. Ciel is the Earl and inherited his parent's estate, properties, and mansion. Both demon and Earl are bonded through a Faustian contract, in which the deal is that Sebastian helped Ciel obtain his revenge after the mysterious murder and deaths of his entire family, an event that happened 3 years prior. Through each arc of the series, the manga chronicles the adventures of Ciel where he was solving the mysterious violent events relating to the mysteries of his family's name that followed Ciel's reputation as a Phantomhive and Queen's Watchdog. Much of these secrets is occult in nature, having defeating death, finding the secret of immortality, cults, and etc.

In the world of Kuroshitsuji, demons are summoned to the human realm via desperate wishes or tragedy, and it was this despair or tragedy that draws demons to them. Demons feed on those souls, and it was done through a contract. The demon make a contract to fulfill the human's wish, and once the job is done, the demon gets their end of the bargain and consume the contractor's soul.

In this case, Sebastian is a demon, and he was summoned through a ritual of devil worshippers where they kidnapped Ciel and they sacrificed children by murdering them to obtain the goal of summon Sebastian and use the demon's power to grant wishes.

1. To protect and never betray Ciel.
2. To obey his orders no matter what.
3. To never lie.

Those three are absolute, and Ciel put them in place to ensure the demon's loyalty and truthfulness, as Ciel trusts absolutely trusts no one as he climbed up ranks as an Earl and head of the household, and he trusts the demon the least.

The first clause ensures that Ciel can never die before he obtains his revenge, because if he dies, than the deal of Sebastian eating his soul is off. To obey his orders ensure absolute obedience, no matter how unpleasant or dangerous the task is, even if the task can ensure death to a normal human being. To never lie, meaning Sebastian must always, like a daily habit, to tell the truth.


Personality
Okay, get ready for some poetry slam.

Perpetually
Perfectionist
Professionalism
Punctual
Rising at the crack of dawn before everyone else to wake up everyone else
Patrolling around the manor at midnight
Working the schedule like clockwork
Never sleep, sleep is a luxury
Bed? Bed? I couldn't go to bed, not with all of this serious Butlering to do
Absolute black, from the hair, uniform, the shoes
Absolute cleanliness and polish the silverware
Serving tea time at the best of times
Having the silver pocketwatch comes in handy
Irritation if there is anything else less perfect and unforgiving of mistakes
Will never admit he made a mistake
And whenever Young Master wish to play a game of murder
I shall have the silverware of forks and knives handy
for the perfect getting away with murder
Whenever Young Master orders me, if he wish to say the word
The bodies shall hit the floor
And always smiling
Such service, much Butler
And there's always time for a pet kitten and cat break on a given Catuarday
Forget Sundays, Sunday is laundry day

*drops Mic*

au!Personality
Sebastian can be an elite trash, as Yana puts it. "Drawing Kuroshitsuji is more challenging [and worthwile] and I also get more excited when I think about ideas of Sebastian being completely in his beast mode and doing inhumane things, rather than when I think about ideas of Ciel behaving like a bastard. That’s why I think that Sebastian is the protagonist [of this series]. They both are the lowest of the low, but I enjoy drawing Sebastian (except his face) since he is an ‘elite trash’ that genuinely lacks sense of shame and moral sense." In other words, it's quite common for rich people to look down people on the lower bottom of the social later.

Also. Mr. Darcy. Because author loves Pride and Prejudice. Because who wants to marry a butler anyway? :'| He'll never have the time for love, much less the Aro/ace (aromantic/asexual) demon cares little to none for it.

Butler: The highest ranking official servant. Responsible for running the house. Forty to 60 pounds ($4,300-$6,400) per year. He also received considerable "gratuity" money from venders selling goods to maintain the house. In smaller estates the butler assumed the house steward's responsibilities.
- Salary of servants during the 1890's



Powers/Abilities as a demon

In Kuroshitsuji, the demon's powers is not clearly defined, but basing on the general observance in the manga and anime:


- Super Strength/Speed/Sense/Etc.: Sebastian has super strength that he can pull a horse carries by himself, crushed a car with his foot, run for long miles without tiring, pick up statues and throw over long distances like it was a football, stopped a speeding train or a hellhound with a single hand (shown in Kuroshitsuji I and II), ripped and bend steel in half. As for speed, he can clean the entire parlour or a laundry room in record time.

- Fight style/Maritial Arts: Sebastian fighting style is throwing silverware of knives and forks with deadly accuracy. That one time he helped Ciel throws knives in the Circus Ark to display his competence at knives throwing, Sebastian helped him "cheat" by throwing rocks at the knives, so that each throw hits the bullseye. He can take down an entire Italian mob with knives and forks. Sebastian in particular, deploy martial arts. He enjoys fist fights, acrobatic evasions, and powerhouse kicks.

- Super creativity: He can art and sculptures out of chocolate in record speed. In the anime, ice sculptures.

- Matter Creation: This was shown in the manga and was handwaved without much explanation. When Sebastian arrived to the ruined manor for the first time after Ciel's rescue, he is capable of fixing the mansion in a blink of his eyes using his powers and conjured up a delicious buffet in a matter of minutes. However, with one flaw at that time: He did so with the only imperfections being in terms of his lack of knowledge such as the lack of taste of food, much to Ciel's dismay, it tasted heavy and awful. After Ciel witnessed this demon's power in particular, he taught the demon to cook the right away to make himself look normal.

- Immortality vs healing: Sebastian seems to heal from his injuries fairly quickly, though it wasn't written whether he's susceptible to death. Demons live long immortal lives. The only way to end a demon's life are weapons to slay demons or a Grim Reaper/Shinigami's weapon, which seem to affect him more, but still not very much. However, it's not clear whether he has the ability to regenerate limbs if they get cut off. *coughs * dammit Kuroshitsuji I & II *

- Butlering/Multitasking multiple jobs/ Silver service: Sebastian as a demon to the core is being a servant for domestic service. His skills as a senior head butler means he can and by necessity handle many jobs at once in the household, so his job is really a lot of management. His servants who work for him, the gardener, the maid, and the chef are incompetent at the jobs they do. Silver Service, meaning he is able to tell the difference between a soup spoon from a desert spoon, or using the different utilities in the kitchen.
