Spoiler for Japanese Manga:
Thread Title : [manga] Who is more Evil ?
Poll with Same Question as Title : Who is more Evil
Quote:
Priscilla :
Spoiler for Saving Space:
Priscilla was promoted to Claymore #2 shortly after she joined the organization. She was so powerful she could fight with her Yoma power entirely suppressed, allowing her to conceal her presence from Yoma and fellow Claymores. According to Ilena, this made her the perfect Claymore to fight against Teresa, as Teresa's greatest strength was her ability to sense Yoma energy.
Priscilla became a Claymore after a Yoma possessing her father slaughtered the rest of her family right before her eyes. She managed to chop off its head and this incident caused her to develop a strong belief in justice.
Though extremely powerful with the potential of becoming #1, Priscilla was still a child and mentally weak when she received the order to execute Teresa. While she was polite and fair in combat, her view of the world was entirely black-and-white: every person and action in this world was either right or wrong, with no room for grey. She was the only Claymore sent to execute Teresa who actually believed Teresa deserved to be executed.
This blind faith of hers would ultimately cause her to lose all her humanity and altruism when she was defeated by Teresa. Confused and frightened as to why a righteous person like her could not defeat a murderer, she attacked Teresa in a fit of blind rage and self-righteousness, releasing too much of her Yoma power and eventually turning into an Awakened Being. Immediately thirsting for blood, she decapitated Teresa, amputated Ilena's arm, and killed Noel and Sophia, in front of a horrified Clare, before flying off.
It is not known why Clare was spared at this point. According to Riful, Priscilla is said to have killed all the men, women, and children in every town she visited as an Awakened Being, but the same way she didn't kill Clare, she didn't harm any little girl, as if they "didn't even get reflected in her eyes."
As an Awakened One, Priscilla is a winged humanoid about 2m tall with a single horn on her forehead. She later on teams up with the Abyssal One Isley, but the details of their encounter are unknown. Riful originally said that Isley had defeated her, but after encountering them, she now believes that Priscilla is actually stronger than any of the Abyssal Ones, including Alicia, and is Isley's master.
Priscilla is currently acting like a human child and seems to be attached to Raki for unknown reasons.

Ophelia :
Spoiler for Savin Space:
When Ophelia was a child, her beloved brother died protecting her from Priscilla. This caused Ophelia to deeply hate all Awakened Beings and she vowed to take revenge on the "one-horned monster".
Ophelia eventually became Claymore #4. Though powerful, she developed an incredible thirst for killing, especially Awakened Beings or partially Awakened Claymores. She murdered others indiscriminately for the fun of it, and even killed humans while slaughtering all witnesses to avoid punishment. She also enjoyed torturing and played sadistic "games" with her opponents in battle. Even other Claymores considered her a "monster".
Her special fighting technique is "rippling" her sword by waving it back and forth at great speed. This technique is extremely difficult to dodge or block, even for an opponent who can predict her movements, such as Clare.
Ophelia was assigned to fight with Clare against an Awakened Being, but she tried to kill Clare and Raki instead as she suspected that Clare was partially Awakened. She almost succeeded, but was stopped by Ilena, who severely wounded her.
Badly wounded and furious at her defeat, Ophelia released all her Yoma energy and Awoke, becoming a serpentine creature, similar to the Lamia from Greek Mythology. Despite her hunger and desire for guts, Ophelia doesn't realise she's awakened until she caught a glimpse of her reflection in a lake. She was killed by Clare with the assistance of Ilena's Quick Sword technique and her own suicidal tendencies.
Her character and death scene bear some similarities to the character Ophelia from Shakespeare's play Hamlet.
