"I  couldn't help but cry because I  finally found someone I can call...my friend."

Crona Gorgon (クロナ, Kurona; Literally meaning "Dark One") is one of the first reoccurring antagonists of the Soul Eater series. Crona is the pink-haired, black-blooded androgynous offspring of the witch Medusa Gorgon, though the father is unknown. He is presented with an ambiguous gender throughout the entire series and while there have been hints toward Crona's sex in both directions, nothing definitive has been presented.

Crona (at the beginning of the series) is mentally unstable, often laughing randomly and expressing psychopathic behaviors. However, due to Maka's exorcising soul wavelength, all of the Madness that the witch Medusa planted inside him has gone away, and the Hell inside his head has closed. He is shy and overly protective of his friends, expecially Maka. He'd put his own life in danger just to save any of them, and he has the scar across his back to prove it.
