Rachel

Rachel is the current Claymore #5 and is an offensive type warrior. She is good friends with fellow Claymore, #3 Audrey.

Appearance
Rachel has a very masculine look, having very short hair which she spikes upwards. She wears the standard Claymore uniform and has the traditional silver eyes.

Employment as a Claymore
Rachel is first seen with Audrey doing battle with Riful. She performs her special attack, which Riful then calls "strong sword". However, the attack is unsucessful against Riful. Both she and Audrey have to be saved from their imminent deaths by Clare, Miria, Helen and Deneve.

Personality
Rachel is very hot tempered and confrontational. Her personality can be compared to that of Noel, along with her relationship with Audrey resembling the relationship between Noel and Sophia.

Abilities
Strong Sword: Rachel's signature technique is "Strong Sword", where she performs a very powerful attack by restraining the blade of her sword (in the ground for instance) and then applying a large amount of pressure before releasing it from the restraint like a spring. This move can also be performed off the ground with the help of another comrade's blade to act as the restraint for Rachel's sword.
