Santa Claus

Santa Claus is a Devil Hunter from Germany.

Appearance
Santa Claus is a short, mostly bald elderly man with a thin mustache and beard.

Personality
Santa Claus is a possibly lecherous man who asked for several children of either gender as his reward for bringing in the Chainsaw Devil from Japan, apparently for use in contracts and for pleasure.

He has no issues with forcibly recruiting large numbers of civilians to work for him by transforming them into puppets.

International Assassins arc
Makima and Kishibe discuss the potential threats that may be coming from overseas, with Germany's Santa Claus being among them. Makima states that she heard a rumor that he died of old age and Kishibe acknowledges that they should pray that is the case.

In Germany a military man sat down at the same bench as Santa Claus who was reading a newspaper. He told Santa Claus that Christmas has come early, and that they want him to bring in the Chainsaw Devil from Japan. When asked for his desire for a reward he stated that he wanted to adopt four good-looking children for use in contracts and for pleasure.

Santa Claus travels to Japan where he uses his contracted abilities to convert a crowd of people on a street into dolls.

He hides within a coffee shop nearby to a department store that Denji and his bodyguards are visiting. He orders his dolls to attack once Denji enters the store. He continues to send in an entire army of puppets after Denji in preparation for delivering a 'present'.

Abilities
Santa Claus' exact abilities and the devils he is contracted with is unknown, but Makima and Kishibe hold him in high regard as the most dangerous threat towards Denji amongst the world's assassins and devil hunters as they say it will all be over if he uses his devils against them.

Devil Contracts
Unnamed Devil Contracts: Santa Claus is contracted with several powerful unnamed devils.

Doll Devil Contract: Santa Claus has a contract with the Doll Devil for an unknown price.
 * Doll Creation: Santa Claus can create dolls out of people to obey his will. The effect is caused by touch and spreads contagiously as each doll touches another person, allowing him to create an army of dolls out of a crowd. The dolls can also transform one of their arms into blades. However Santa Claus must remain in the nearby area in order to maintain control of his army of dolls, and the conversion process has no effect on fiends or devils.
