Shirou Kamui
司狼 神威 (Shirō Kamui)
A brooding young man, who possesses powerful magic which manifested at an early age. It is his destiny to decide whether the world should be destroyed so it may be reborn without humanity or save the world so humanity can continue to live in its current world.

However after Kotori's death, he becomes a much warmer and kinder person.

有洙川 空汰 (Arisugawa Sorata)
An upbeat, irreverent teenager raised by the Shingon Buddhist monks of Mt. Kouya and also possessing considerable magical abilities. It was prophecied that he would protect Kamui but die for a woman. In the anime, the prophesy is realized as he dies defending Arashi from Fuuma's sword, despite her earlier attempts to kill Kamui.

鬼咒 嵐(Kishū Arashi)
A foundling girl raised by Shinto priests at the Ise Shrine. Called the "Hidden Priestess Of Ise" her specialty is swordfighting. Sorata falls in love with her, and she comes to reciprocate. But she is convinced by Fuuma that she must kill Kamui in order to release Sorata from his obligation to defend him. In so doing, she ends up causing the death of her lover. In the manga, Arashi does not willingly change sides from the Ten no Ryuu to the Chi no Ryuu, but following the consummation of her love for Sorata, finds herself unable to generate her sword from her hand. Upset, Arashi is placed under a spell by the Hinoto's dark half so that when Arashi awakens, she will fight as a Dragon of Earth.

Inuki is later killed by Satsuki, but reborn. Yuzuriha is exceedingly genki (energetic), oftentimes diffusing latent tension between Kamui and the rest of the Ten no Ryuu. Yuzuriha falls in love with Kusanagi.

Sumeragi Subaru
皇 昴流 (Sumeragi Subaru)
A character imported from the earlier brief series Tokyo Babylon. He is 13th Head of the Sumeragi clan, a clan of onmyouji. His sister, Hokuto, was killed by his lover, Seishirou. He intends to allow Seishirou to kill him as well, but due to a spell cast by Hokuto at the moment of her death, Subaru kills Seishirou instead. In the anime, this final blow sends him into catatonia, from which he only emerges in time to contribute to the battle between Fuuma and Kamui. In the manga, Subaru inherits the duty and the powers of the Sakurazukamori (being as he killed Seishirou, the previous Sakurazukamori) and joins with the Chi no Ryuu. Although Subaru never actively aids the other Chi no Ryuu and continues to attempt to help Kamui realize what his true wish is, he is nevertheless no longer able to create kekkai (having lost the one person he would wish to protect with his very life), and thus no longer considered Ten no Ryuu.

kekkai (barrier field): pentagram

My favorite dragons of Heaven would have to be Kamui, Subaru, Karen and Arashi. -^^- I've always loved Arashi and I got to love Karen more during the series *Saw the movie first.* It bummed me out Subaru died so early int he movie.. -.- That annoyed me.
I was watching the beginning of the movie and I was like: "Hey! o.o! He's cute!" *Watches a few more minutes.* "...You killed him off... you bastards! What the hell was that!? >.

My favorite Female Dragon of Heaven would be Karen Kasumi because she is very strong kind and a motherly figure to the younger members of the seven seals. Even though she was abused by her mother she still able to be a kind loving person with a heart of gold. My two favorite male dragon of heaven characters would be Kamui and Subaru because they are not only cute but they both have a way of making each other smile and feel better so they in my opinion would make the perfect couple hee hee.
