Chrollo Lucilfer

"Making the ability yours while exploring the darkness within the soul of the original owner... that's the true pleasure of a skill hunter." — Chrollo to Hisoka, in "Troublesome"

Chrollo Lucilfer (クロロ＝ルシルフル, Kuroro Rushirufuru) is the founder, leader, and member #0 of the Phantom Troupe,^[4] and he served as the main antagonist of the Yorknew City arc. His physical strength ranked seventh among the group.^[7]

Appearance

Chrollo is a young man with black hair and grey eyes. Two of his distinguishing features are the cross-shaped tattoo on his forehead and a pair of orb-shaped earrings. He is usually seen wearing a dark purple coat that has white fur on the collar and wrists, unbuttoned to reveal his muscular physique. The coat is imprinted with a golden St. Peter's Cross on the back.

Prior to the foundation of the Phantom Troupe, Chrollo neither wore his trademark coat nor combed back his hair. When he approached Neon Nostrade to steal her Nen ability, he wore a blue blazer with his hair hanging down naturally and his cross tattoo hidden beneath a thick layer of wrappings.

His spider tattoo has the number 0 on the spider's abdomen,^[4] but the tattoo location has yet to be revealed, although the 1999 anime adaptation placed it on his right arm, with no apparent number.^[8]

Personality

Chrollo is calm, intelligent, and charismatic, as he seems to be a born leader and able to hold the Troupe together despite the volatile personalities of its members. While he is a very capable strategist, Chrollo is also very confident in his own fighting abilities as well as in those of the other members of the Spider. He always has at least two people with him, which is why Hisoka found it so difficult to fight him.^[9] After he has admired the items that he targeted and acquired, Chrollo sells them all.^[10] It is also stated that Chrollo likes antique books.^[3]

Unflinching and unshakable, he is also an observer of human nature. Gon's hostility toward the Troupe led Chrollo to reflect upon the nature of himself and his actions.^[11] Additionally, when fighting Hisoka, who refused to back down even after seeing the extent of his abilities, Chrollo expressed a fascination for the inner workings of human beings. However, by his own claim, he sees no difference between a puppet and a person.^[12]

Chrollo shows no fear of his own death, even anticipating it. Melody stated that his heartbeat sounded as if he was happy living alongside death. To Chrollo, the Troupe is more important than his own life.^[13] He once stated that the survival of the group comes before the well-being of the leader, stressing that the head of the Spider is just another limb that can be sacrificed for the survival of the whole.^[14] In order to prevent their negative fortunes from coming true, Chrollo ordered the Troupe members to stay close and to assist one another.^[11] The only people Chrollo seems to care about are his fellow Troupe members. When he reads his fortune written by Neon which alludes to Uvogin's death, he cries for him. Later on, he orchestrates a massacre of Mafia members as a requiem to his fallen comrade.^[15][16] After the deaths of Kortopi and Shalnark at the hands of Hisoka, Chrollo appears visibly distraught^[17] and furious,^[18] vowing to kill him as soon as he sees him.^[4]

Like the other Troupe members, Chrollo is cold-blooded, ruthless, and not above inhuman mass murder, most notably when he brutally massacred the Kurta Clan alongside his teammates. In addition, his use of Indoor Fish on an assassin reflects his apathetic nature towards his enemies. The gruesome murder of their dear friend Sarasa and their thirst for revenge against the perpetrators have desensitized him to such atrocities.^[19] There is also an implied hostility between Chrollo and Silva Zoldyck, most likely stemming from their previous encounter after Silva's killing of a Troupe member.^[20][21] While kidnapped, Chrollo also proved to be quite provocative and sinister towards Kurapika.^[14]

Chrollo is a skilled actor and quite manipulative, as shown when he met Neon Nostrade and "befriended" her to steal her fortune-telling ability. During that time, he presented himself as an amiable and helpful man, always enthusiastic and smiling, who also displayed curiosity. However, Chrollo only intended to learn about Neon's ability to fulfill one of the conditions needed to steal it.^[15][1]

Chrollo, growing up in Meteor City, was influenced by the conditions there, sharing remarkable bonds that have been described as "thinner than water, and yet thicker than blood".^[22] This was also proven by the fact that the Phantom Troupe is a major asset in the defense of the city.^[23]

Chrollo is shown to have been emotional, caring, and bright as a child. He also always brought fresh flowers for the graves of children in church. Father Lisores comments to a Meteor City elder that he sees much promise in Chrollo because of his spirit and original ideas.^[24]

Background

Chrollo originated from Meteor City, a junkyard city inhabited by outcasts. People who live there do not exist in any official records, and the existence of the city itself is known to a very few people.^[22]

One day, Chrollo, who was about eleven years old, along with Franklin and Shalnark, found a new VHS tape in one of the garbage dumps. They started running with the tape, tossing it from hand to hand, which Machi saw. She then reports this to Uvogin, who gets in the boys' way. Uvo knocks out Shalnark as Franklin returns the tape to Chrollo, who escapes using the opportunity. Then, Phinks and Feitan cut off Chrollo's path on a motorbike. Chrollo gives them back the tape, but it turns out that he outsmarted them, and it was a Gelman language course tape found sometime earlier, and he hid the newly found tape under his shirt. Chrollo then goes to the church, where he has a short conversation with Father Lisores. After that, he visits the AV room, where he meets Pakunoda. Together, they play the tape in a VCR, which is a recording of the movie Power Cleaners in a foreign language. Chrollo decides to translate the film's content and create dubbing with his friends. He asks Pakunoda to talk Sheila and Sarasa into it. After a short while, Chrollo manages to finish the script, after which the four friends start recording.^[24]

After the recordings are finished, the prepared film is shown in the church. Lots of kids from Meteor City show up. The first to approach Chrollo, even before the show, is Uvogin. He tells him that they need to talk after the show is over. Phinks then arrives with dubious intentions, but is distracted by Sarasa. Sheila notes that as long as Chrollo is protected by the youngest of the children, Sarasa, he is safe. The show begins. All the children seem to be delighted, but at some point the sound in the recording stops working. While Uvogin makes fun of Chrollo's problems, Chrollo decides to do live voices, standing on stage and using a microphone. Pakunoda, Sheila and Sarasa join him. On stage, Chrollo imitates a multitude of characters, not only vocally but also physically. The children are most impressed by the role of the villain, in which Lucilfer's face shows unprecedented emotions. After the show ends, Uvogin is delighted and asks for a chance to voice the villain in the next taping. The children form a dubbing group consisting of: Chrollo, Uvogin, Sheila, Sarasa, Nobunaga, Feitan, Phinks, Shalnark, Pakunoda, and Franklin. Machi is also with them, but she doesn't like any of the available roles. In the near future, the group is tightening ties and spending time rehearsing, writing scripts and presenting new episodes on stage. We see them after some time when the group tries to get Machi to participate in the show, but she only considers the role of the villain. The group tries to find a solution, but they notice that they don't have enough actors and they should look for new ones. They also consider a name for themselves and choose the name "Troupe". They are going to add a second term to it, but they are not sure what it should be yet. Chrollo and Uvogin have a short chat in which the latter states that he has found his purpose, which is to travel with Chrollo, putting on shows, and playing the role of the best villain in the world.^[25]

One day, Sarasa didn't show up at the show. The troupe learned that she had not been seen since yesterday. Most of the children watching the Troupe's shows decided to help with the search. Chrollo paired up with Uvogin, and after a long time of searching, they came up with the idea of checking out the Uga Forest. They gathered the other members and they all went into the forest together. There they found the scene of the crime, the instruments of torture, a note left behind and a sack hanging from a tree. Chrollo was the only one who could read the contents of the note, but he chose not to share it with the others. When Uvogin took the sack from the tree, Chrollo decided to check the contents. It turned out that Sarasa's destroyed body was inside.

Sometime later, Chrollo attends Sarasa's funeral, after which he talks to Uvogin about their future. He asks him to wait three years, in which he will be able to get the necessary funds to carry out his plan, which consists in creating a website that brings together criminals. During the conversation, they are joined by the other members of the Troupe, except for Sheila, who decides to leave the group. Each of the other members chose Chrollo as the leader of the group, which will be formed in three years.^[19]

Around three years later, being about the age of fourteen, Chrollo founded the Phantom Troupe, along with Franklin, Uvogin, Machi, Pakunoda, Feitan, Nobunaga,^[14] and Shalnark.^[19]

Then, sometime later, Chrollo fought Silva Zoldyck before their encounter in the Cemetery Building. It is unknown when and what the exact circumstances were.^[21] As the leader of the troupe, he took part in the massacre of the Kurta Clan.^[26]

Plot

Heavens Arena arc

After she heals his wounds at Heavens Arena, Machi tells Hisoka that all Troupe members must meet in Yorknew City by noon on August 30^th. He asks if Chrollo will be present, and Machi assumes that he will be, adding that it may be their biggest mission yet and that Chrollo may punish him personally if he doesn’t show.^[27]

Yorknew City arc

Chrollo is first seen at a meeting of the Phantom Troupe in an abandoned area of Yorknew City on August 31^st. He orders the Troupe to steal all the items at the Underground Auction and to eliminate anyone who gets in their way.^[3]

On the evening of September 1^st, he, Phinks, Kortopi, Bonolenov, Pakunoda, and Hisoka stay behind while the other seven members infiltrate the Cemetery Building where the auction is being held and kill all the Mafia members and guests in the auditorium,^[28] only to discover that the vault had been emptied and the items relocated just a few hours before their arrival. As they escape in a hot-air balloon, Uvogin calls Chrollo and suspects that there’s a traitor within the Troupe. Chrollo reasons with him that an informant exists, but this person is not among them. After learning about the man named Owl who removed the auction items, he then tells Uvogin and others to cause a big disturbance to lure out the other Shadow Beasts.^[29]

Following Chrollo’s order, Uvogin massacres the Mafia and four Shadow Beasts in the Gordeau Desert,^[30] but he is captured by Kurapika shortly afterwards. Five other Troupe members immediately give chase until they are stopped on the way by the remaining Shadow Beasts.^[31] They kill all of them except Owl, who they capture and torture to retrieve the auction items. Near midnight, they find where Uvogin is being held captive and free him after killing Dalzollene, the head bodyguard of the Nostrade Family.^[9] Uvogin, however, insists on finding the chain user and has the others tell Chrollo that he won’t return until he settles the score.^[10] After tracking down Kurapika and arranging a duel, Uvogin eventually meets his demise in the Gordeau Desert in the early hours of September 2^nd. Back at the Troupe’s hideout, Chrollo surmises that the chain user is either a Manipulator or Conjurer and that Uvogin is likely to lose against them in a one-on-one fight. He tells the other members that if Uvogin doesn’t return by dawn, they will change their plans.^[7]

On September 3^rd, thanks to a picture of her that was just uploaded on the Hunter Website, Chrollo finds and approaches Neon Nostrade, who has slipped away from her bodyguards to attend the rescheduled Underground Auction without her father’s knowledge.^[32] After helping her to get into the Cemetery Building, he asks her to tell his fortune, which she gladly does.^[1] Upon reading it, he cries once he sees the allusion to Uvogin's death. After the two talk and make their way to the auction, he knocks Neon unconscious with a swift blow to the back of her neck in order to get the Mafia members to call an ambulance. He then kills multiple assassins with ease^[15] and dedicates the requiem to Uvogin while his other comrades massacre the police and 2,000 Mafia members guarding the building.^[16][6]

As the Troupe’s massacre continues outside, Chrollo is cornered in the building’s basement by Silva and Zeno Zoldyck.^[6] Noticing how skilled Zeno is, Chrollo fights with the intention of stealing his abilities. However, Zeno sees through him and has him pinned against the wall while Silva throws two huge aura spheres at them, triggering an enormous explosion.^[21] Silva's transmitter suddenly rings, and Illumi informs him that the Ten Dons have been eliminated and that Chrollo was the one who hired him. Since Silva and Zeno were hired by the Ten Dons, they tell Chrollo that he is no longer their target now that the Dons are dead, leaving Chrollo alone and exhausted as he tells himself that he wouldn’t have been able to steal Zeno’s ability. Chrollo then contacts the other members and tells them to forget about the ambulance and that they will go ahead as planned.^[33]

The Troupe then makes use of Kortopi's ability to fool the Mafia with fake corpses of five members,^[34] taking over the rescheduled Underground Auction held on the building’s 10^th floor and selling the copies of the items made by Kortopi’s ability.^[33] After that, he and the other members return to their hideout and celebrate their successful plan.^[34] The following day, Chrollo tells the Troupe that they will leave Yorknew that night once they retrieve the rest of the loot, but Nobunaga insists on finding the chain user.^[22] In order to persuade Nobunaga, he uses Neon’s stolen ability to tell the fortunes of Nobunaga and the other members, and they learn that five more of them will die in the next two weeks if they keep chasing after the chain user. They then intend to leave Yorknew to avoid the fortunes,^[26] but Hisoka alters his own with his Texture Surprise so that the Troupe will stay in Yorknew and he will have the chance to fight Chrollo.^[35]

Later, Chrollo is able to deduce that Kurapika is one of Neon's bodyguards and a surviving member of the Kurta Clan. Thanks to a pair of copied Scarlet Eyes that they sold to the Nostrade Family the night before, they determine that he and the other bodyguards are staying at the Hotel Beitacle. Chrollo then tells Kortopi, Machi, Nobunaga, Pakunoda, and Shizuku to go with him to the hotel.^[36][37] On the way, noticing that they are being followed by two people, he tells Kortopi, Nobunaga and Pakunoda to go ahead while he, Machi, and Shizuku stay behind. They then capture Gon and Killua again.^[11] Meanwhile, Pakunoda and the other two are able to learn Kurapika's name and face after capturing and killing Squala.^[38]

Chrollo, Machi, and Shizuku take the two boys to the hotel^[38] and meet up with Pakunoda's group in the lobby. He tells Pakunoda to check their memories again, but before she can reveal what she has learned about Kurapika, a power outage suddenly happens, allowing Gon and Killua to make an escape attempt. However, Machi and Nobunaga easily recapture them despite the total darkness. Shizuku is then the first one to notice that Chrollo is missing.^[39]

After the others also realize that Chrollo is missing, Pakunoda reads a note left by Kurapika that threatens Chrollo's life if she reveals Gon and Killua's memories to the others. Nobunaga tells her to stay quiet while they wait for the chain user's call, stressing that they need to keep the two boys as hostages. In a flashback, Pakunoda remembers the formation of the Troupe in Meteor City where Chrollo stressed the importance of the Spider as a whole, telling them to never forget that someone else will take over if he dies. Back in the present, Pakunoda considers betraying the Spider to save Chrollo and wonders what Chrollo would do, with Nobunaga calling Phinks and telling him to hurry after revealing that Chrollo was captured. Sitting chained in the seat next to Kurapika as Leorio drives, Chrollo says that he didn't think the chain user would be a woman, but Kurapika quickly removes his wig and warns him that his words could be his last. Chrollo then reminds Kurapika that he can't kill him since he left his friends behind. He then points out that the encounter wasn't even mentioned in his fortune, which means that it's entirely insignificant, causing Kurapika to fly into a rage.^[14]

Phinks, Feitan, and Shalnark soon arrive at the hotel. The Troupe members receive a call from Kurapika, who tells them not to follow him, not to hurt the hostages, and to give the phone to Pakunoda. He then tells Pakunoda to go to Lingon Airport alone to negotiate the terms of a hostage exchange and that the other members have to return to their hideout. Phinks, Feitan, and Shalnark try to follow Pakunoda, but Nobunaga stops them for fear that Chrollo will be killed, leading to a heated quarrel between the two groups, with Feitan stressing that Chrollo would agree with their decision to follow her and that Nobunaga’s way of thinking is an insult to the Spiders. The quarrel is eventually settled, and the Troupe members agree to return to the hideout.^[40]

Meanwhile, after Chrollo again provokes Kurapika, the latter punches him in the face multiple times before Leorio and Melody calm him down. As Chrollo stresses that he’s worthless as a hostage, Melody listens to his heartbeat and says that he enjoys the fact that death is always near him. Kurapika asks if he was the Troupe’s leader five years earlier when they massacred the Kurta Clan, but Chrollo stays silent as Kurapika readies his Judgment Chain. Chrollo then asks if he used the chain to kill Uvogin, also asking about his final words. He again refuses to answer Kurapika, who feels powerless about having to keep Chrollo alive. As Kurapika backs down and calls back Pakunoda, Chrollo realizes that Kurapika will prioritize his friends over his mission, hoping that Pakunoda will bring the others with her to the meeting.^[13]

When Kurapika meets Pakunoda aboard an airship, he uses his Judgment Chain on both her and Chrollo, setting two conditions for each of them (with Chrollo forbidden from using Nen and from communicating with other Troupe members). He then tells her to return to the airport with the hostages by midnight and to not tell the others where she is going. After Pakunoda agrees and returns to the hideout, she tells the others about the exchange and that she is leaving with just the two boys. Phinks becomes so angry that he wants to get rid of them and then go after the chain user,^[41] but Machi and Kortopi side with Pakunoda. They prepare to confront Phinks and Feitan, who think that she and the others are being manipulated by the chain user, but Gon interrupts their quarrel and emphasizes that Pakunoda just wants to save their leader. Phinks finally agrees to let Pakunoda leave after Franklin tells him that if they all keep fighting, it will be the end of the Troupe.^[42]

Just before the exchange, Hisoka unexpectedly appears and threatens to kill Gon and Killua if he cannot board Pakunoda’s airship. Kurapika has no choice but to let him go to the exchange site with them. After the exchange is successful, Kurapika looks down on Chrollo and hopes that he realizes what it’s like to have all his support systems taken away. Standing opposite him, Hisoka happily challenges Chrollo to a fight.^[42] He then reveals that he has never been a true member of the Troupe, removing the fake Spider tattoo from his back, and points out that it won’t be considered in-fighting now. Chrollo laughs and tells Hisoka that he isn’t worth fighting since Kurapika stabbed him with his Judgment Chain and rendered him unable to use Nen. Losing interest, Hisoka quickly leaves and tells Pakunoda that he isn’t interested in broken toys, assuring her that Chrollo isn’t in danger from him anymore. As Pakunoda sacrifices herself to give her memories to the founding members of the Troupe, Chrollo stands alone at the exchange site and looks toward the east.^[43]

Greed Island arc

After Phinks and Feitan encounter Gon and Killua at the Southernpiece Auction, the former tells them that the Troupe can’t kill the chain user since Nen doesn’t necessarily disappear after death and sometimes seek out the object of the user’s hatred. He then worries about Chrollo’s safety, but Feitan stops him before he can say anything else aloud. Phinks assures himself that Chrollo is looking for a skilled exorcist and that they just need to wait for him to return.^[44]

After seeing Chrollo’s name in his Greed Island book, Shalnark points out to the other Troupe members that the island is located due east of Yorknew. As they all remember the connection to his fortune, Shalnark guesses that Chrollo traveled there by sea and was teleported away by Razor, but because he can’t use Nen, he hired someone to play the game for him and to use his name as a message to them. As Shalnark adds that the Nen exorcist is on the island, Hisoka reveals himself and says that while Chrollo hired him, it was his own idea to use his name. Franklin guesses that Hisoka’s reward for helping Chrollo is a duel, and Shalnark assures the others that it’s only a matter of time until Chrollo returns. At that point, a smiling Chrollo is seen at an undisclosed location sitting in front of a JoyStation Console. Killua calls Kurapika and tells him about the situation, but Kurapika assures him that his Nen has not been removed from Chrollo. After Kurapika hangs up, he tells himself that while it isn’t Chrollo, it’s not unrelated.^[45]

Finally locating the exorcist Abengane with the help of their new member Kalluto, the Troupe has Hisoka make a deal with him so that he will remove Kurapika's Judgment Chain from Chrollo's heart.^[46]

Chimera Ant arc

Chrollo is seen reading an issue of Weekly Shōnen Jump as Hisoka and Abengane approach him.^[47]

After several Troupe members defeat multiple Chimera Ants including Zazan near Meteor City, Nobunaga texts Shalnark and asks for their help, with Phinks left disappointed that it wasn’t Chrollo contacting them.^[48]

13^th Hunter Chairman Election arc

When Hisoka is left confused by Illumi’s mention of Ants and Netero’s death, Illumi tells him that he missed a lot while he was chasing after Chrollo, adding that he might have had the chance to fight the Ants or Netero otherwise.^[49]

Succession Contest arc

A Deathmatch with a Jester

Chrollo finally decides to accept Hisoka's challenge and accepts a deathmatch with him at Heavens Arena, where he is a Floor Master. The referee begins the fight and Chrollo immediately takes control of him using Shalnark's Black Voice. Hisoka realizes that Chrollo was avoiding him after the exorcism so that he could collect abilities for the fight. Chrollo reveals a second antenna and uses the referee to attack Hisoka simultaneously, trying to pin Hisoka with it. Hisoka finds an opening to cut down the referee, but the referee's body explodes. Chrollo reveals two more abilities: The Sun and Moon, an ability to make marks on others that explode when in contact, and Double Face, a bookmark that allows him to use a stolen ability without having to hold his book open, allowing the use of abilities that require both hands. They discuss Chrollo's three new abilities and he announces that he will show Hisoka three more, adding that Hisoka should be honored to be the opponent Chrollo has needed the most abilities to kill.^[5]

Chrollo then introduces Hisoka to another ability, Order Stamp. He explains it, closes the page, flips to Kortopi's Gallery Fake, bookmarks it with Double Face, makes a copy of the referee's corpse, flips to Order Stamp, and demonstrates its functionality by ordering his new puppet to "break Hisoka". Hisoka beheads the puppet, confirming that beheading is sufficient to deactivate Order Stamp. Chrollo tells Hisoka that when the copy vanishes he may conclude that Gallery Fake has been deactivated. The copy vanishes as Chrollo deactivates Gallery Fake to show and explain Convert Hands, the final ability prepared for their deathmatch, an ability which allows him to give someone his appearance by touching them with his right hand and take theirs with his left hand. Before resuming the fight, Chrollo reveals that one of his abilities belongs to someone who is already dead. He sees that Hisoka understands the implication and confirms that the marks from The Sun and Moon are a form of post-mortem Nen: they will never disappear unless they explode. After finishing his explanation, Chrollo declares his certain victory and asks Hisoka if he still wants to continue. Hisoka consents, fascinating Chrollo.^[12]

Chrollo resumes their combat by opening his book to Black Voice. He dodges Hisoka jumping at him and hides in the audience, manipulating two audience members to distract Hisoka as he disguises himself with Convert Hands.^[12] While Hisoka tries to find him in the fleeing crowd, he retrieves the antennae.^[50] He makes copies of at least around 30 spectators using Gallery Fake, preserves them through Gallery Fake's deactivation using marks from The Sun and Moon, and finally orders them to break Hisoka using Order Stamp.^[51] Chrollo has copies of spectators chase a retreating Hisoka into the ring. While Hisoka retreats from the wave of copied spectators, Chrollo approaches him from the other side and kicks him in the back of the head, sending Hisoka cratering into the ground. Chrollo continues attacking from openings arising from Hisoka having to deal with the crowd of copies. Hisoka spots Chrollo and sticks Bungee Gum from his left foot to the severed head of a copy in preparation. Chrollo sees an opening and takes it, and dodges the head Hisoka sent flying, having seen Hisoka stick the head. Chrollo stomps Hisoka into the ground but is hit by another head Hisoka stuck with aura from his left hand.^[50]

Chrollo sees Hisoka swinging the heads around by contracting his Bungee Gum and manages to react in time to block without closing his book, letting him keep the puppets active. He has them swarm Hisoka^[52] and pretends to catch his breath as he marks a body belonging to one of the heads Hisoka wields with The Sun and Moon, disguising the fact that bodies with marks from The Sun and Moon do not vanish.^[53] Chrollo sees a head launched at him and dodges before jumping into the crowd to make more puppets, using his puppets to engage Hisoka and prevent him from easily following. Hisoka eliminates the puppets and holds one hostage to restrict and discern Chrollo's actions. Chrollo deactivates Order Stamp and runs to where he had other puppets on standby to be stamped, but is quickly spotted and chased by Hisoka after he notices the stamp mark vanish on his hostage. Chrollo runs and keeps his hands hidden in his clothing as he does so, forcing Hisoka to keep a distance away from the threat of Black Voice. Hisoka catches Chrollo mid-air with his aura by using some spectators as distraction. Hisoka attacks Chrollo, but realizes that the Chrollo he attacked was merely a copy he made and gave his appearance to that he manipulated with Black Voice. Hisoka stares at the head for a moment, wondering how it remained despite Chrollo deactivating Gallery Fake to use Convert Hands, and realizes that the marks from The Sun and Moon kept puppets around despite the ability's deactivation.^[52]

Hisoka jumps to the middle of the ring to look for Chrollo, and prepares for a big attack before paramedics and security come in and take away the puppets. Chrollo sends the puppets to rampage through the audience and create chaos. In the chaos, he steals the announcer's microphone and uses it to order all his puppets to break Hisoka. Puppets dash at Hisoka who uses his Bungee Gum to turn them into a giant human hammer. While Hisoka attacks the onslaught of puppets, Chrollo manipulates one marked with The Sun and Moon using Black Voice and has the puppet detonate itself using the earlier-marked body, destroying Hisoka's hand. As Hisoka flees to the walls of the second floor of spectator stands, Chrollo has puppets chase him from the second floor and explode next to him. The puppets catch Hisoka off guard and send him flying to the opposite side of the arena, where more puppets with the same instructions wait. Chrollo sees Hisoka planning to escape to the ceiling using his Bungee Gum and throws spectators at Hisoka to prevent him from doing so, sending Hisoka falling into the crowd of puppets below him. The crowd of puppets surround Hisoka and detonate, killing him and leaving a massive crater in the arena.^[53]

After the fight, Chrollo tasks Shalnark, Kortopi, and Machi with verifying Hisoka's death. Meanwhile, the media report that one of the combatants may have used a bomb that killed Hisoka along with many spectators. Chrollo is then seen on the phone with Shalnark where the two discuss plans to board the ship headed to the New Continent and to steal the treasure of Kakin’s royalty. Chrollo then asks Shalnark about returning his cell phone, but points out that there are no antennae. Shalnark says that he is okay for now, and Chrollo replies that he will give it to them on board the ship, with Shalnark looking forward to the entire Troupe getting back together.^[54]

Seeking revenge and riches

In a crowded area on Tier 5 of the Black Whale, a man steps on a cockroach and says that they seem to find their way everywhere. He notices the dejected expression of a person sitting opposite him and says that he looks like he’s about to kill someone. After the person is revealed to be Chrollo, the man adds that he probably endured a lot to get onboard and tells him to forget about all his ties to the old world. However, Chrollo replies that it would be difficult since ties are meant to be severed, not forgotten.^[17]

On the second day of the Black Whale’s voyage, Chrollo meets up with Machi at a crowded market in Tier 5. Both of them want to be the one to kill Hisoka after the deaths of Kortopi and Shalnark. Machi suggests flipping a coin, but Chrollo reminds her that coins are for disputes between two individuals, stressing that every member of the Troupe (including himself) wants to kill Hisoka. He then tells her to find Hisoka and guarantees that he’s somewhere on the ship.^[18]

All current members of the Phantom Troupe gather together in the crowded central dining hall, where Chrollo hears the reports about their fruitless search for Hisoka. They conclude that Hisoka is not in Tier 5, though the upper tiers are controlled by two other Mafia families. Chrollo encourages their newest member, Illumi, to introduce himself. He shares that he and Hisoka once had a give-and-take relationship, but Hisoka has now requested that he join the Troupe and have Hisoka as his assassination target. A group from the Cha-R Family then interrupts their meeting, with the leader rudely asking them to move from their table. Chrollo refuses and asks them to find somewhere else instead. The Mafia leader stops his subordinates from initiating a fight and identifies Chrollo and the others as the Phantom Troupe. According to the leader, the Troupe's rampage in Yorknew City allowed them easier access to the New Continent. The leader further orders the Troupe to do their business elsewhere. Before leaving, Chrollo tells him that they are looking for someone over 190 cm with an unpleasant air about him. The leader suggests that they look at the Royal Army's passenger list, but adds that it will be a hard task since the upper tiers require tickets. He offers him a free pass if they join the Cha-R Family, but Chrollo politely declines. Instead, he asks about gaining access to Tier 1, which prompts the Mafia leader to quickly dismiss his cockiness, telling him to get lost.^[4]

As the members walk away, Phinks muses that the leader showed his hand when Chrollo mentioned Tier 1, implying that there might be treasure hidden there. Chrollo stresses that they need to find Hisoka before going after any treasure. With the information they have all gathered, he orders the Troupe to bring him Hisoka's head, after which they can celebrate. Soon after the group splits up, Shizuku and Bonolenov ask Chrollo if he wants to team up. Chrollo agrees to work with them, but stresses that he will be the one to kill Hisoka. Shizuku points out that both her and Bonolenov's abilities don't work well against Hisoka's Bungee Gum, and Chrollo replies that he plans to attack Hisoka as soon as he sees him. Shizuku says that she will look for Hisoka in disguise, and Bonolenov says that he will transform rather than disguise himself, explaining that he will use his Battle Cantabile: Metamorphosen. He adds that while he can take many forms, he isn't strategic enough to come up with a plan, asking Chrollo for help. After Chrollo gives Bonolenov advice on how to use his ability, Shizuku asks Chrollo if he can read their fortunes again, hoping that it will give them some clues. However, Chrollo reveals that the ability disappeared from his book, and after realizing the implication, Shizuku likens Chrollo's book to the Death Note. As Chrollo stays silent, Bonolenov tells Shizuku that she keeps thinking that.^[4]

During his conversation with a subordinate, Ken'i indirectly mentions Chrollo about his score to settle with Hisoka after the Heavens Arena incident.^[55]

The three are last seen making their way from Tier 5 to Tier 4 through the central passage.^[56] On the seventh day of the voyage, after Phinks, Nobunaga, and Feitan discuss the current situation with Ken'i and Tajao, Phinks asks them to verify Morena's location while they contact the other Troupe members and hunt down the hit man.^[57] On the tenth day of the voyage, after Onior confirms with Hinrigh that Hisoka isn't in Tier 4, he says that he can permit the Spiders to search that tier.^[58]

On the twelfth day of the voyage, Bonolenov comes across Hisoka in the Tier 1 VIP Casino and thinks back to Chrollo's orders for him on the fourth day to disguise as Hisoka, be found by the mafia, and sent to the upper tiers, so that the mafia would incorrectly believe that the Spiders would not find Hisoka and so let them freely search for him. Chrollo tells Bonolenov to be wary that promoters might try to feature Hisoka since he is a floor master at Heaven's Arena, and to be careful not to run into Hisoka. Having discovered Hisoka, Bonolenov thinks about how Chrollo was right in guessing that Hisoka was on Tier 1 somewhere as a VIP through a Prince's invitation, but had not told the other spiders his guess that Hisoka was on Tier 1 since he wanted to deal with Hisoka himself. He continues following Chrollo's instructions to transform into someone else if he finds Hisoka and to wait for him, and uses his Metamorphosen to transform into Owl, the Shadow Beast.^[59]

While disguised as Owl, Bonolenov continues walking around the casino and tries to guess at the mafia's actions if they discover Lynch's corpse, who Bonolenov had killed while getting access to Tier 1. He cannot come to a conclusion and wishes he could ask Chrollo, but decides not to have Chrollo involved since he knows that Chrollo is still feeling the loss of Shalnark and Kortopi. Bonolenov thinks about how Chrollo is trying to act fine because he knows that the other spiders know how he feels and wants to settle the matter with Hisoka without their help, and how the "treasure" that Chrollo seeks on the ship is an ability to do so. The other spiders want to kill Hisoka first, before Chrollo can get to him. Bonolenov thinks about how Chrollo had kept the #9 spot empty the whole time, and hopes that Hisoka will be the last and that their performance could end after.^[59]

Somewhere on the lower tiers, a tribute is played on the big screens somewhere on the lower tiers to pay respects to Risnorth, Sarasa's killer, who had been murdered ten years ago to the day. Chrollo does not watch it, but the crowds nearby talk about how the report that credit had been claimed for his death had been retracted in a weird manner, speculating that it might have been bad if the culprit was caught and that morons took what the media says at face value.^[59]

As a crowd assembles for Halkenburg's funeral procession, Chrollo walks around Tier 3 while using Love Dial 6700 to try and locate his "ideal partner". Love Dial 6700 is unable to locate anyone near him, and so after thinking about the similarity of this situation with his time trying to use it at Heavens Arena, he debates between moving somewhere else to try again and loosening the restrictions instead. He thinks about going to Tier 1, aware that the ongoing succession battle makes it riskier because of his guess that there should be far more people with abilities hiding. The succession battle ritual bestows Nen abilities onto people, who use the abilities and fight until a sole survivor remains.^[60]

Chrollo's thoughts wander to Kakin's regalia, the three sacred treasures used in the succession battle that he seeks. He assumes that the royal family are already aware of the Phantom Troupe's presence on board through the mafia, and would not simply believe that they were there just for Hisoka but correctly assume that the Troupe is after their treasure. He runs through the Troupe's actions thus far, and recalls that because only Kakin could choose whether the three treasures were kept together or dispersed, the Troupe chose to search for both Hisoka and the treasures together, from the bottom tiers up. Because both the mafia and the military did not react much to their presence, Chrollo guesses that the treasures are on upper tiers. He thinks back to when he first found out that Nen abilities were used in the succession battle and that the three treasures were involved, where he concluded that the three treasures are the system used to create the powerful Nen used not only for the succession battle but to maintain Kakin's prosperity itself. Chrollo guesses at the existence of a focal point, a funeral hall, where the treasures are enshrined, and that such a place would need to be on Tier 1 because holy treasures forming the root of Kakin's prosperity would be guarded more strictly than King Nasubi himself.^[60]

As Chrollo thinks, he slowly becomes incensed. He thinks about how the three treasures being the greatest prize to steal would undoubtedly satisfy the conditions required to upgrade Skill Hunter, giving him the power he needs to kill Hisoka for good—in order to steal such a rare and power ability, he needs to achieve "stealing a national treasure-level item" before the usual activation conditions. Chrollo is aware of how hard it is to keep control over the two conflicting emotions and reminds himself to not be impatient even though he could not just wait forever. He considers the risk of attempting to steal the treasures, specifically that him going to Tier 1 increases the chances that he runs into Hisoka before being completely ready to fight, although it is not a big problem for now since the next best option was in place and the spiders would go on even if he died.^[60]

He wanders through the crowd gathered at the general hospital as Halkenburg's coffin is carried out and uses Love Dial 6700 again to no avail. Because he still cannot find his "ideal partner", he concludes that they are on the higher tiers, as he guessed.^[60]

Shortly after, Borksen is forced into playing a negotiation game with Morena after having been abducted by the Heil-Ly. As part of the questioning during their negotiations, Morena shares that one of their members had enhanced his sense of smell to the point where he could detect properties of an individual's Nen, and had been excited to come across a floor master in the Heavens Arena during his search for specialists, who is Chrollo.^[61]

Equipment

Ben's Knife: Chrollo is in possession of one of the famous Ben's knives, forged in Delon's central period. It has a black hilt with a slightly curved knuckle guard, similar to a D guard. Near the guard, the blade branches in two segments. The central one is the longest. It ends up with a sharp arrow point. The second segment is curved and serves as the edge of the knife. Its tip almost touches one of the central segments. A third segment acts as the back of the blade. It is connected to the others through two horizontal bars. Ben's knives are renowned for their exceptional sharpness, which allowed Chrollo to cut Silva's skin, a feat that led the assassin to recognize the weapon’s quality. Silva also judged from the blade’s shape that it was toxic. The toxin was so powerful, in fact, that 0.1 mg could paralyze a whale. Chrollo concealed it in a curved scabbard under his clothes.^[6]

Antennae: Chrollo carried Shalnark’s two antennae with him to activate Black Voice.^[5] According to Hisoka, a fishing line may have been used to retrieve them.^[50] However, both were lost/destroyed during the fight.^[52][54]

Cell Phone: In order to use Shalnark's Black Voice, Chrollo also borrowed his special bat-shaped telephone,^[5] which was still in Chrollo’s possession at the time of Shalnark’s death.^[54]

Abilities & Powers

As the leader of the Phantom Troupe, Chrollo is an exceptional fighter and revered as the strongest by most of its members. Machi ranks him cleanly above Hisoka,^[62] who has consistently desired a fight against the Troupe's leader far more than any other Spider.^[35] However, Chrollo tends to hold back if his opponent possesses an ability that interests him so that he can steal it.^[21] He was able to fight against Silva and Zeno Zoldyck simultaneously, both extremely proficient assassins, without leaving any openings for the former to exploit, though he was unable to cause significant damage to either of them and was ultimately saved by Illumi fulfilling his contract.^[33] In the past, he survived a confrontation with Silva,^[21] and Zeno stated that he would surely win if Chrollo fought to steal his ability, but that his victory would be less certain if Chrollo were serious about killing him.^[21] His greatest achievement on the battlefield may be his victory at Heavens Arena against Hisoka, another extremely powerful Nen user who at the time had no record of past defeats or even proof of struggling in fights.^[54]

Chrollo’s fighting style is adaptable and combines speed with deadly precision. He is able to kill skilled assassins with just a pen, sometimes even remaining concealed with Zetsu,^[6] not even using Nen as a result. Chrollo is also endowed with extraordinary strategic abilities as well as astounding strength of mind and willpower, even by the standards of the Troupe.

Preternatural Perception: While chased by Kurapika and Gon, Chrollo was able to sense that he was being followed as well as the direction from which his pursuers were approaching, whereas five other Troupe members failed to detect anything unusual even after he warned them.^[11]

Enhanced Strength: Chrollo ranked seventh in arm-wrestling among the Troupe.^[7] Assassin A stated that he could easily decapitate Neon if he wanted to. He can pierce through skulls with an ordinary pen.^[15] He lifted large pieces of debris with a single hand.^[33] He is also capable of lifting adult males and throwing them over a distance of multiple meters using only one arm and while standing on top of a balcony.^[53] More impressively, he can injure Hisoka to make him spit blood.^[50]

Immense Speed and Reflexes: Chrollo was able to fight Silva and Zeno at the same time, avoiding or blocking their powerful attacks effectively.^[6] According to Pakunoda, he would have no trouble dodging an attack lasting 0.2 seconds.^[14] He landed a hand chop on the neck of Neon Nostrade that was so fast that neither the people in the hall nor people watching through the cameras (besides Assassin A who had to replay the surveillance footage) could detect his movement.^[15] He can run on walls without any difficulty, and was stated to be faster than a car in rush hour.^[11] In his match against Hisoka, he was able to steal a person's clothes, put them on, create more than thirty puppets with Gallery Fake, and blend into the crowd again all in a brief period of time.^[50]

Enhanced Agility: Chrollo can run on the sides of buildings, and easily jump horizontally from one to another.^[11] He also deftly dodged many of Zeno's long-distance attacks while never losing sight of Silva and quickly recovered his balance the few times he was hit.^[21] During his fight against Hisoka, he was able to dodge a fast-moving projectile while in mid-air.^[50]

Genius-level Intellect: Despite his young age, Chrollo is the leader of the infamous Phantom Troupe. Even when he was a child, he was proficient in at least three languages, and, more impressively, the elders governing Meteor City valued his input and deemed him capable of solving the problems plaguing their community. Shortly thereafter, he would indeed go on to influence the city's politics after predicting the worldwide changes that the ascent of the internet would produce.^[24] His plans usually go smoothly, and he has shown himself to be both knowledgeable and intuitive. He was able to trick the Mafia into thinking that he and several of his comrades had died,^[34] as well as to anticipate that the Kakin Mafia would attempt to prevent a confrontation between the Phantom Troupe and Hisoka, devising a plan to counter them while also getting closer to his target.^[59]

Master Strategist: Chrollo is highly intelligent. He managed to predict part of the chain user’s strategy of vengeance, though he was ultimately outsmarted by both Kurapika and Hisoka. He has complete control over his emotions, as demonstrated when he was captured by Kurapika and managed to take notice of the latter's weakness (that he would prioritize his friends over his mission). In his fight against the Zoldycks, Chrollo focused on stealing Zeno's ability in the midst of combat and left no openings for Silva to exploit, proving himself to be an efficient multitasker and quick-thinker.^[21] Before fighting Hisoka, Chrollo prepared a strategy that, by his claim, granted him a sure chance of victory,^[12] and indeed Hisoka, despite being a genius in combat, while able to respond and hold his own for a period, managed to anticipate only one^[50] of Chrollo's moves.^[5][12][50]

Master Hand-to-Hand Combatant: Chrollo's defense is top-class. He managed to put up a good fight against the two Zoldycks, using his skills at unarmed combat almost exclusively to block and dodge. He managed to confront Zeno and avoid his attacks at the last second in order to prevent Silva from exploiting his openings, keeping an eye on him the whole time. While he was mainly forced on the defensive in the aforementioned fight, he has also shown incredible offensive abilities when he knocked Neon unconscious and took care of the other assassins hired by the Mafia. Assassin A noted that Chrollo’s chop against Neon was so fast that it would have beheaded her if not for the perfect control of his movement.^[15] When Silva discovered Assassin D’s corpse, he noted that he was killed with one strike from behind and that there was no signature of the killer’s bloodlust.^[6] He also managed to fool Hisoka twice with a feint, inflicting considerable damage even while holding his book.^[5][50]

Proficient Weapon Specialist: Chrollo defeated and killed multiple skilled Nen users wielding just a normal pen.^[15] He was able to injure Silva's arm with a Ben's knife (the sole injury he could inflict during the confrontation), demonstrating his skills with this type of weapon.^[6]

Nen

Chrollo is a Specialist.^[6] His talent for Nen is judged prodigious not only for his age but even by the standards of masters in the discipline. His Zetsu was noted by Silva to be flawless, allowing him to sneak up on his opponent and kill them without leaving the faintest trace of bloodlust,^[6] although Hisoka was able to sense it an instant on at least one occasion.^[50] Like other skilled Nen users, he is capable of maintaining a state of Ten at all times.^[4] His prolonged use of Ren in confrontations^[6][21] suggests that he can use Ken as well. He also has knowledge of Gyo.^[11] Chrollo appears to be particularly versatile in Hatsu, able to employ numerous stolen abilities across different Nen types in battle to great effect and has even utilized multiple Nen abilities simultaneously, in turn demonstrating his copious aura reserve. It is currently unknown whether this is entirely due to his skills, or if Skill Hunter allows him to mimic the proficiency of the ability’s original owner.

Chrollo ranked seventh in arm-wrestling among the Troupe,^[7] which may be impressive considering that Specialists are the weakest in employing Enhancement skills. Furthermore, his defensive usage of aura is so great that, despite fighting against both Silva and Zeno at the same time and enduring powerful blows, he took only relatively minor damage which did not impair his combat abilities,^[6][21] although he immediately understood that he would be unable to guard against Zeno's superior Gyo^[21] and collapsed from exhaustion immediately after the end of the fight.^[33]

Due to Kurapika's Judgment Chain, he was rendered unable to use Nen for a period of time.^[41] After the exorcism was performed, he acquired new abilities for the purpose of fighting Hisoka. The creation of Double Face^[5] and his explanation of The Sun and Moon^[12] imply that he knows about loopholes and post-mortem Nen, respectively.

Chrollo's Nen Type: Specialization
Type: Specialization	Skill Hunter (盗賊の極意(スキルハンター), Bandit's Secret)
	Chrollo can steal the Nen abilities of others to use as his own through a conjured book known as "Bandit's Secret."[21] The victim, of course, no longer has access to the stolen ability. The theft happens under strict conditions: Chrollo must witness the Nen ability in action with his eyes. He must ask questions about Nen and be answered by the victim. His victim's palm must touch the handprint on the cover of Bandit's Secret. All of the above must be completed within one hour.[63] A sufficiently rare and powerful ability requires Chrollo to steal an object comparable to a national treasure before any of the other conditions.[60] To use a stolen ability, Chrollo first conjures Bandit's Secret and turns to the page of the desired ability. The book must then remain open in his right hand, allowing him to use only one ability at a time.[21] The abilities are subjected not only to the limitations but also to the emotions and thinking of their creators. For example, despite seeing corpses as immobile masses no different from objects, Chrollo cannot use Order Stamp on them due to the opinion of the original owner. Additionally, an ability vanishes from the book if its former owner dies. However, if post-mortem Nen is involved, Chrollo can still utilize the ability.[12] Expert Nen users can see through some of these conditions, as Zeno rightly guessed that Chrollo needed to fulfill four or five of them before he could steal an ability.[6]
Type: Specialization	Double Face (栞のテーマ(ダブルフェイス), Bookmark Theme)
	When the stolen ability requires the usage of both hands, Chrollo conjures Bookmark Theme to be able to use that ability. This bookmark allows Chrollo to maintain access to any ability on the page it is placed, even if the book is closed and he is not touching it, acting as a loophole for one of the conditions placed on Skill Hunter. However, Chrollo must now follow more conditions to utilize the ability. With both hands now free, Chrollo can now use hand-to-hand combat in conjunction with his stolen abilities. Furthermore, if Chrollo keeps the book open to a particular page and uses the bookmark on another, he becomes capable of utilizing two stolen abilities at the same time. The bookmark was specified to belong to the book itself and not to be a stolen ability.[5]

Stolen Abilities

Type: Unknown	Indoor Fish (密室遊魚(インドアフィッシュ), Fish Playing Behind Closed Doors)
	Nen Beasts described as a fish that can only survive in a completely sealed room, it seems to be made entirely of bones and feeds on human flesh. While a person is being eaten, they do not feel pain or bleed and will remain alive and perfectly conscious even if mortally wounded. When the fish disappears, the effects of the wounds manifest, very likely resulting in the death of the victim. Chrollo summoned two of them when fighting an assassin hired by the Ten Dons.[16]
Type: Conjuration	Fun Fun Cloth (不思議で便利な大風呂敷(ファンファンクロス), Wondrous Convenient Kerchief)
	An ability originally owned by Owl, a member of the Shadow Beasts. The cloth is conjured and can increase and decrease in size according to the user's will. Whatever is covered in the cloth, even an object as large as a car, decreases in size until it fits in the palm of one's hand. The user can then return it to its original size by letting it out of the bag. People can also be shrunk this way, without being injured.[31] After Owl used it to relocate the items at the Underground Auction, he was eventually captured and tortured by the Troupe,[7] during which time Chrollo stole the ability. Chrollo then used the ability in his fight against Silva and Zeno, attempting to capture the latter so that he could steal his ability as well.[21]
Type: Unknown	Teleportation*
	Chrollo displayed the capacity to teleport a person from one place to another without that person's consent. He did so while remaining immobile, and without seeing the person he wanted to teleport or the destination. He used the ability on Nobunaga to prevent him from attacking Hisoka. Both Phinks and Machi were unaware that Chrollo possessed the ability.[35] This ability is likely emitted, as teleportation abilities are usually from the Emission Nen type.[64]
Type: Unknown	The Sun and Moon (番いの破壊者(サンアンドムーン), Paired Destruction)
	Two symbols appear on the backs of Chrollo's hands: a sun with a plus on his left and a waxing/waning moon with a minus on his right. By touching the intended target, he can mark them with a different symbol depending on which hand he used. When the two marks touch each other, they trigger an explosion. The marks can be created instantly, but to reach their full power, Chrollo needs to touch the target for three to five seconds. In the latter case, the explosion is powerful enough to kill people around the bearer of the marks, instead of just the bearer themselves.[5] A symbol can be fully charged even after its application, by means of physical contact.[53] Despite Chrollo saying that the marks themselves explode, the fully charged symbols were able to turn what they were affixed on into a bomb, including parts separated after the application of the symbols.[51] The ability was stolen from the elder of Meteor City. Although he since died, his Nen became so powerful after his death that Chrollo was able to retain his ability. For the same reason, once the marks are affixed, they will remain until they explode, even if Chrollo's book is closed.[12] Their power is such that they can even counter the restrictions of Skill Hunter, preventing a copy created with Gallery Fake from disappearing even after the ability is no longer in use if a mark has been affixed on it.[52] The Nen type of this ability is currently unknown, although its effects could be explained by a combination of Emission and Transmutation.
Type: Conjuration, Manipulation	Order Stamp (人間の証明(オーダースタンプ), Proof of Humanity)
	Chrollo conjures[5] a stamp that, when affixed onto a "puppet", allows the user to control it after giving a vocal command. To be considered a puppet, the object that the user wishes to control must have a head and be lifeless. This ability cannot be used to control corpses, as the original user did not view them as mere inanimate objects; it can, however, control Nen copies of corpses. Removing the head of the puppet will deactivate the ability. The stamp has the kanji for "person" (人) and leaves the same mark upon being affixed. The ability is capable of controlling a large number of puppets, but the orders cannot be too complex. Chrollo discovered that if he controls the copy of a person, giving commands that go against that person's beliefs can prove detrimental to the point that a command will sometimes be ignored. However, he discovered that using language that creates emotional distance—such as saying "break" instead of "kill"—can bypass the puppet's will.[12] It is one of the abilities Chrollo stole to fight Hisoka[5] and can be used to control more than 200 puppets at the same time.[51]
Type: Unknown	Convert Hands (転校生(コンバートハンズ), Transfer Student)
	Two marks appear on the palms of Chrollo's hands: a black arrow pointing up inside an empty circle on his right and a white arrow pointing down inside a filled circle on his left. Touching a target with his right-hand causes them to take on Chrollo's likeness, while touching them with his left causes Chrollo to take on his target's likeness. If he touches a target with both hands, the two of them instantly switch forms. The ability only affects appearances, not abilities or personalities. Since the marks remain on Chrollo's hands, it is relatively simple to identify him, although clothing can be used to hide them.[12][52] Nonetheless, it is an effective way to blend into a crowd. For the mark to appear on his right hand, which would otherwise be holding the book, Chrollo needs to use the bookmark, but after activating the ability, he can hold the book normally.[12] It is one of the abilities that Chrollo stole to fight Hisoka.[5] It is currently unknown what Nen type it uses. Its characteristic of making the affected object indistinguishable from the original[52] makes it vaguely similar to some Conjuration abilities.
Type: Conjuration	Love Dial 6700 (恋のダイヤル６７００(いまわし電話), Disgusting Telephone)[note 1]
	An ability stolen from Narumi McGait. Chrollo can search for an "ideal partner" with specific characteristics using a conjured cell phone. After inputting the criteria, a 6-20 digit number is displayed. When the number is dialed, the caller receives guidance on how to locate the target, including whether the target is within a certain distance from the caller but too far for their position to be pinpointed. If a caller is unable to locate their target, they are advised by the cell phone to not repeat the call until a certain amount of time has passed or until they move to a different area. The ability is limited in the number of uses each day, though how many times and whether the allotted number of calls can vary is unknown.[60] This ability has excellent synergy with Skill Hunter, allowing Chrollo to locate Nen users with the abilities he desires.[60]

Former Stolen Abilities

Type: Specialization	Lovely Ghostwriter (天使の自動筆記(ラブリーゴーストライター), Angelic Auto Writing)
	An ability stolen from Neon Nostrade. It creates accurate predictions of future events. The user cannot predict their own future.[65] The ability requires: A person's full name Their date of birth Their blood type[1] The person who wants their fortune told must write the required information on a piece of paper and give it to the user, who then summons the "Lovely Ghostwriter" to compose the fortune on that same paper. The user does not know what he writes, being in a trance-like state. The fortunes take the form of poetry, composed of four or five quatrains (fewer if the target’s fortune is to die within the first four weeks) corresponding to the weeks of a month. The first is always about something that has already happened. Neon refused to read the fortunes she told, feeling that it would spoil her ability, but she was willing to listen to what Chrollo had to say about a portion of his fortune.[15] Chrollo, however, was willing to discuss and analyze the fortunes he told in great detail.[26][35] When Shizuku asked Chrollo to read her and Bonolenov's fortunes again, he told her that the ability disappeared from his book. As Shizuku seemed to implicitly surmise and Chrollo to confirm, it's very likely that Neon died at some point prior to the Black Whale's voyage.[4]
Type: Conjuration	Gallery Fake (神の左手悪魔の右手(ギャラリーフェイク), Divine Left Hand, Demonic Right Hand)
	An ability borrowed from Kortopi that allows Chrollo to conjure an exact copy of an object with his right hand when he touches it with his left.[33][66] He cannot replicate living things except as inanimate objects, meaning that the copies will look like corpses,[66] and although Chrollo seemingly can replicate conjured items, he is unable to replicate their effects.[34] The copies that he creates vanish after 24 hours, regardless of their size. However, before their disappearance, Chrollo is able to track the movements of each and every copied object by using his En (provided that he can touch the originals).[37] In his deathmatch against Hisoka, Chrollo used the ability to create puppets to control with Order Stamp,[12] making more than 200 puppets at the same time.[51] Although never confirmed, it is presumed that the ability disappeared from Chrollo's book after Kortopi's death.[54]
Type: Manipulation	Black Voice (携帯する他人の運命(ブラックボイス), Mobile Fate Director)
	An ability borrowed from Shalnark which allows Chrollo to completely manipulate a target by sticking an antenna into them and piloting them through a phone. Unlike Shalnark, he keeps out both antennae, using one on a target to attack his opponent and the other as feint if his opponent knows about the ability, enabling Chrollo to attack them.[5] He can also give orders to a controlled puppet by talking into the phone.[51] Although never confirmed, it is presumed that the ability disappeared from Chrollo's book after Shalnark's death.[54]

Quotes

• (To Uvogin) "I don't consider Judas to be a traitor. They say Judas sold Jesus over for 30 silver coins. How much would this traitor sell us out for? Think about it. What would he gain by selling us to the Mafia? Money? Fame? Status? Would that really gratify any one of us."^[29]
• (To Neon) "I believe that we have a soul. So I want to fulfill my dead friend's wish... to wreak havoc."^[15]
• "Dear Uvo... can you hear this? We dedicate this requiem to you."^[16]
• (To Gon) "You have a lot of hostility for someone who's surrendered."^[11]
• (To Gon) "I don't know. It might be because they have nothing to do with me. When I'm asked like that, it's hard to answer. I don't much like to talk about my motives. But surprisingly... or rather, as I expected... the reason is the key to understanding myself..."^[11]
• (During the founding of the Troupe) "Together, we are the Spider. I'm its head, and you're the legs. The legs do what the head says. But there will be times when the legs are more important than the head. If I die, someone else will take over. My orders are of the utmost priority. My life is not. Be sure to make the right decision. I'm only a part of the Spider. What's important is the survival of the whole, not the individual."^[14]
• (To Kurapika) "You can't kill me. You left your precious friends behind. This wasn't even in my fortune. That means it wasn't worth mentioning. This situation is insignificant."^[14]
• (To Kurapika) "Is that the chain you used to kill Uvo? What did he say to you before he died?"^[13]
• (To Hisoka) "Unlike Order Stamp’s owner, the elder thought there wasn't much difference between humans and puppets. I tend to agree."^[12]
• (To Hisoka) "I'm not saying this as a challenge, but I'll win. I'm 100 percent sure."^[12]
• (To himself) "Humans... are so very... interesting."^[12]
• (To a Black Whale passenger) "Ties are to be severed... not forgotten."^[17]
• (To Machi) "Coins are for disputes between individuals. Everyone wants to kill him this time. Of course... that includes me...!"^[18]
• (To the Spiders) "We want to have a party, but there's no cake. We need a special order to place in the center of the table. When we get it, we'll get back together and dine at that table. Bring me Hisoka's head...!!"^[4]
• "The next best option is already in place. The Spiders will go on. Even if... I may die. That is what is worthy of awe... my design of the Spiders!!"^[60]

Trivia

• The official databook and Volume 34 extras spell his name as "Quwrof Wrlccywrlfh", although in the former, the last two letters of his surname are difficult to make out.^[2]
  • In the Hunter × Hunter - Sôshû-hen - Treasure Vol. 4 extra book cover, which precedes the most recent version given in Vol. 34, his surname is slightly different: "Quwrof Wrlccywrlfr".
  • In the official English translation of Chapter 55, Chrollo's name is written as "Chrolo", and in Chapter 95, his surname is written as "Lusilfer", both of which were their first appearances.
• It is unconfirmed when exactly Chrollo became a Floor Master at Heavens Arena. Since Hisoka allied himself with Kurapika because he did not know how to track down Chrollo outside of the Troupe's gatherings,^[9] it seems plausible that Chrollo started competing at the Heavens Arena only after his exorcism.
• The copies of a person created by Kortopi with Gallery Fake are identical to the original in every aspect, even when dissected.^[22] However, when Chrollo used the ability, the beheaded copies released a small amount of clear fluid instead of blood.^[12]
• Currently, Chrollo has demonstrated usage of the highest number of individual Nen abilities. This remains the case even when the two abilities that he may have lost possession of following the original owners' deaths are excluded.
• According to the "Hunter × Hunter Manual" section found in the Yu ☆ Yu ☆ Hakusho official character book (Shueisha Jump remix),* Chrollo's stats are:

Story Arcs	Mind	Skill	Body	Nen	Ingenuity	Intelligence
Yorknew City arc	5/5	4/5	4/5	4/5	4/5	4/5

Anime and Manga Differences

• In the 1999 anime adaptation, Chrollo has his spider tattoo, without a number, on his right arm.^[8] In the manga, there is no tattoo visible,^[34] and the 2011 anime adaptation has Chrollo’s arm still covered by his sleeve.^[68]
  • However, in previous scenes of the same episode that show Chrollo's biceps, the tattoo is not visible at any point.^[8]

Intertextuality and References

• Chrollo's character draws on biblical motifs, specifically diabolical ones: the inverted cross on his coat is often associated with Satanism, and his surname is obviously derived from Lucifer.
• Chrollo shares similarities with Shinobu Sensui, a villain from Yoshihiro Togashi's other well-known series, YuYu Hakusho:
  • both are the leaders of their gang;
  • both are the smartest and most polite of their gang;
  • both have religious references. Sensui is known as the Dark Angel, Chrollo has a cross on his forehead, an inverted cross on his coat, and a last name very close to Lucifer;
  • and in the manga and the 2011 anime adaptation, a young Chrollo is seen playing with a videotape, possibly a reference to the Chapter Black tape stolen by Sensui.
• Chrollo's ability to steal the powers of other fighters makes him similar to Rando from YuYu Hakusho, though the conditions they need to fulfill are the opposite: Rando needs to kill his victims to obtain their abilities, while Chrollo’s targets need to stay alive.
  • Just like Rando, Chrollo stole an ability that allows him to shrink people (and objects).
  • Both can summon carnivorous fish to fight.
• Suzaku from YuYu Hakusho made a cameo appearance as one of the victims listed in Chrollo’s book in the 2011 anime adaptation.^[69]
• The Sun and Moon is similar in appearance and effects to the style of alchemy used by Solf J. Kimblee in the series Fullmetal Alchemist.
• Double Face's literal name is the title of a song by Southern All Stars.
• Love Dial 6700's Japanese name (恋のダイヤル６７００(忌まわし電話)) likely references two songs:
  • Love Dial 6700 is likely a reference to a song of the same name by Japanese pop group Finger 5.
  • Disgusting Telephone (いまわし), is likely to be read as いまわし電話(でんわ), the name of a song by P-Model.
• Chrollo's conjured book known as Bandit’s Secret, seen in Chapter 97 and on the cover of Volume 11 (released on March 2^nd, 2001 in tankōbon format), and the Yu-Gi-Oh! card The Secret of the Bandit (released on November 29^th, 2001), have the same original name in Japanese (盗(とう)賊(ぞく)の()極(ごく)意(い)()()()()(), Tōzoku no Gokui).
• In Chapter 193 of the Me & Roboco Manga, Roboco parodies Chrollo when he summons his Skill Hunter book when facing off against Zeno and Silva Zoldyck, by holding up a flyer for Roboco Meshi.

Miscellaneous

When written in Japanese kanji, Chrollo is written as "クロロ" (Kuroro). "クロ" (Kuro) translates to black or darkness. "ロ" (Ro) is the 2nd note in the diatonic scale (used in key names, etc.) This suggests that the second "Ro" was added to make the name sound good and doesn't carry a literal significance. Thus, Chrollo's name means black or darkness. Considering his lifestyle and interest in understanding the darkness within the souls of people whose abilities he steals, it is fitting.

Other possible meanings include:

• • "黒絽"—"black silk" (referring to his clothing);
  • "枢"—"pivot hinge" or "lock bolt" (referring to his pivotal position in the Troupe);
  • or "黒ロリ" (kuro rori)—"black lolita," the style he dresses in.
  • Otherwise, Crollo is an Italian word that means "collapse," which fits him because he hails from a place where society has collapsed. He was not always evil but rather descended into villainy after being broken by grief, and he caused the collapse of the Yorknew City mafia.
• The Hunter × Hunter OST (2011) refers to Chrollo as "The Man of the Reversed Cross," much like Hisoka's fortune.
• Chrollo is played by Ryosei Konishi in the stage play, Hunter × Hunter: Real Stage.
• In the second character popularity poll, Chrollo placed 4^th with 1,904 votes.
• In the third character popularity poll, Chrollo placed 8^th with 764 votes.
