Character Description: Kaname Kuran
Kaname is the President of the moon dorm. His parents were murdered by his Uncle Rido (Senri's father). He is Yuki's savior. Kaname cares deeply about Yuki. Yuki adores him. He and Yuki are siblings and they're engaged. He was both feared and respected by the other students of the Night Class. Purebloods inherited the powers of strong ancient vampires. Purebloods have powers to control other vampires. He is both jealous and angry of Zero for biting Yuki, drinking her blood, and endangered her life. He allow Zero to live. The reason is Zero's death will make Yuki sad.
Kaname's Age
Originally I was told that Kaname was 18 years old, which comes from the Vampire Knight Official Fanbook by Matsuri Hino. I was also told that in the manga Kaname was about eight when Yuki was five. If he shattered Rido's body when he was about eight, which according to Rido was "ten years ago", that would make him 18. However, someone else then pointed out that he was a teenager when he saved 5 year old Yuki. So if she is 15 now, and he was lets say 13 at the time, then he would be about 23 now. I have no official source for this information, though, so I would consider this with a grain of salt. We also must keep in mind that he is a vampire, and we know that vampires age differently than humans. Besides, his true age is over 1000 years old.
