Roxanne



Roxanne was Claymore No. 1 of her generation and is considered to be one of the eight most powerful Claymores of all time. During her lifetime, she was known as "Roxanne of Love and Hate" (愛憎のロクサーヌ, Aizō no Rokusānu) and was apparently troublesome to the Organization.

She is one of the three Claymores revived by Dae and the Organization in order to stop the uprising of the current warriors. Among the three, she appears to be the only one who can remember her name.

Etymology
"Roxanne" is a transliteration of the Japanese "Rokusānu" (ロクサーヌ).

"Roxanne" is a French feminine proper name, from the Latin Roxane, from the Greek Rhoxane, and of Persian origin, associated with the Avestan word raoxšna meaning "shining, bright."

Appearance
Roxanne has wavy, pale blond hair pulled tight into two pigtails with straight bangs swept to the left. She has a very feminine look with prominent lashes and a notable beauty mark below her right eye. She has silver eyes, as with all Claymores.

Abilities
Roxanne's abilities remain largely unknown. It has been shown, however, that she is skilled enough to emerge victorious seemingly effortlessly against twins utilizing soul link, although it must be noted that the two are just trainees.

Cassandra
Roxanne explicitly states that she knew Cassandra as she was a warrior of the same era. She was the one who landed the finishing blow on the latter.
