    Earl Ciel Phantomhive is the head of the Phantomhive noble family and the son of Vincent and Rachel Phantomhive. He runs the Funtom Company, which manufactures toys, sweets and food. His birthday is on December 14, 1875. He is also briefly part of the Noah's Ark Circus, where he goes by the stage name Smile <br />
    <br />
    Ciel is a young male, whose age is twelve in the series (thirteen later on), with blue eyes and dark bluish-black hair in both the manga and anime.<br />
    As the head of the noble Phantomhive family, in the manga, he typically dresses in a way that suits his standing, and has an extensive and elegant wardrobe.<br />
    In the anime, he usually wears a long jacket, button-down shirt, tie, shorts, knee-high garter socks and boots or high-heeled pumps. Occasionally, he carries other accessories such as a top hat, white or black gloves, and a cane. He also has his ears pierced (usually wearing only plain, round, blue ear studs) - as his father Vincent did - and typically wears two rings.<br />
    <br />
    One is an ornate silver piece holding an emerald-cut deep blue stone, a one-of-a-kind family ring that has been passed down through his family for generations, it is also hinted in the anime that it's a blue diamond; he wears this on his left thumb, as it is an adult's ring and too large for him. The other is a gold seal, or signet, ring in the form of the family crest, worn on his right hand, and used to stamp the wax seal on documents. When he wears gloves, he wears the rings over them.<br />
    <br />
    He nearly always wears a black eye patch over his right eye, not because he is missing it, but because that is where the sign of his Faustian contract with Sebastian Michaelis is hidden. In the anime, it is revealed that the closer the mark is to the eye, the stronger the bond between the two. This would mean that Ciel and Sebastian's bond is of an impeccable level. Typically, he wears a black eye patch with a single cord with his day wear, and a medical-looking, white patch which fastens with two cords when at home or while in disguise.<br />
    <br />
    Occasionally, he wears other outfits, typically because he is undercover, investigating something at Queen Victoria's request. These outfits have included a pink ball gown, when he invaded Aleister Chamber's home, and pauper's clothes, when he posed as a servant when joining the Noah's Ark Circus.<br />
    <br />
    When his shirt is lifted, the mark of his previous enslavement can be seen on the left side of his lower back. In the anime, this mark is moved to just below his left pectoral.<br />
    <br />
    In episode 12 of the second anime season, Ciel gains red eyes when he becomes a demon, the same eyes that Sebastian has when he follows an order, although these eyes can change back and forth between red and his usual blue. He also displays a set of black fingernails and toenails in this episode.<br />
    <br />
    Ciel is a very strict and proud character in the anime, with a cold outlook on life. However throughout the anime, his character personality changes gradually and he becomes more aware of his other emotions. Before his parents died, Ciel had the normal outlook as a child. When his parents were burned alive and Ciel made his contract with Sebastian, Ciel went into hiding his emotions and his smile to everyone. He is punctilious on orders as he expects Sebastian, his butler, to complete them accordingly and is extremely loyal to Queen Victoria.<br />
    In the manga, he smiles more often and is more relaxed, even a bit mischievous. He usually smirks mockingly and finds it entertaining to challenge Sebastian. He becomes disappointed when Sebastian manages to defeat the opponent he arranged for him, wanting to see Sebastian on his knees for once. Nonetheless, Sebastian and he work together often, and only his butler seems to be aware and knowledgeable of Ciel's schemes and plans, in contrast to the other Phantomhive servants.<br />
    <br />
    Ciel is competitive, in which he acknowledges it himself, saying that he would not lose in a competition during Frances and his hunting contest. He was not appeased to have a draw with Frances and insisted for another round until the victor is prominent. However, if he is fairly defeated, he would accept it.<br />
    <br />
    Sebastian has noted that Ciel is arrogant and extremely confident in his skills to the extent that he has the viewpoint of 'there's no way I can ever lose'. Therefore, there are still some childish traits in Ciel that would need to be corrected by the adult he respects.<br />
    <br />
    It has been stated by Claude that Ciel's soul is "pure, complete, and absolutely white". This hints at that Ciel is actually a good person. This may mean that his cold demeanor may in fact be a defense mechanism he developed because of his traumatic life.<br />
    <br />
    Ciel was a regular tyke in the past who maintained a cheerful disposition as a child would. He often would smile and play with his family and Elizabeth. After his parents were murdered and his mansion burned down, he was captured for slavery and abuse. He consequently made a deal with the demon, Sebastian, seeking vengeance upon those who disgraced him and the Phantomhive name, in exchange for his soul. When he returned to take his place as the Earl of Phantomhive, he brought Sebastian along with him. His personality drastically changed from an innocent child to an apathetic, cold person as he serves under the Queen while trying to fulfill his revenge.
