"What am I doing here? For what purpose should I be living?" – Saren

Saren is a female Claymore, initially joining the Organization during Cassandra's time. The female was part of an experiment held by the Organization by using awakened being flesh and blood in humans, along with yoma flesh and blood. While this experiment was considered a success due to her strength and prowess, it was deemed too dangerous to repeat until at a later time, when the Organization could conclude their research on the effect of Awakened Beings being implanted in humans.

Saren is known by the Organization as being the most long-lived Claymore to this time, having not succumbed to her urges or dying in battle.

Human
As a child, Saren had blonde hair and blue eyes, this being the reason her hair is so pale after her transformation. Her hair was quite long and very wavy, and was small for her age.

Claymore
Her hair is still long and wavy, but is now an almost white color, and her eyes silver as well. While she does wear the standard Claymore uniform, she looks much younger then most. Even at her trainee age she looked younger compared to the others, and it takes until Clare's generation for her to resemble the more matured Claymore's. Her body is very lithe and slim, but with hidden muscle. Saren is considered to be quite attractive, with soft and pale features, and a frail look.
 * Height: 158.496 cm (5 ft 2 in).
 * Dominant arm: right.

Personality
Saren generally has a serious demeanor that all Claymore's have, though she isn't nearly as cold. To her fellow Claymore's she's generally teasing and flirtatious, liking to poke fun at her comrades touchy sides, though maintains a line of respect. She doesn't seem to care about rankings, and has in fact shown to mock more higher ranking Claymore's who have an ego or who have a sense of entitlement. Despite this, she also demands a certain amount of respect from others as well. While she is confident in her power, the only few times she's claimed to completely state her strength over someone else's is during a life and death battle. To humans, Saren is even more openly flirtatious and often hints towards sexual liaisons, and is purposely ignorant of any difference between her and any human.

Because she bears a small amount of flesh and blood from an Awakened Being, she struggles to hold onto the small amount of humanity she has. Also because of this, she feels a small place of sympathy towards Yoma, and considers Awakened Beings her kin. Saren also has an enormous amount of appetite, and has a hard time controlling the pains of hunger when around humans. This is also why she goes on Awakened Being Hunts alone, as Saren also has the strong urge to devour anything she is meant to kill, and uses this time to feed. When this is eventually brought to light to her fellow soldiers, she is dubbed Saren the Awakened, something to which she is almost ashamed of.

Due to her strength and abilities, Saren finds herself as an unspoken protector of those weaker than her. Anyone under her command, she swears to protect with her life, and so far this promise had remained unbroken.

Hidden from others, is Saren's sadistic nature. The Awakened flesh inside of her causes a blood lust unmatched in any Claymore generation. The Organization has given her the fitting job of disposing of any Claymore's who refuse to be executed or don't send out their black cards, and she uses this opportunity to have her fun. She is shown to be much more callous to those who have wronged her in the past or find themselves entitled, and in these moments Saren completely throws away any humanity she has and embodies what Claymore's fear becoming the most.

Yoki Suppression
Just like the Abyss Feeders modeled after herself, Saren is partially modified to release no Yoki in fear of a quick awakening, however this seems to have been a failure on The Organizations part. While Saren never does release her Yoki and it isn't able to be sensed until she does, this is because her gauge of Yoki release isn't the same as others. Comparably, a simple 10% release for her is the same to match another soldiers 70%, and because of her small amount of humanity, she has a hard time not Awakening. Since she has trouble releasing her Yoki, this inhibits her ability to sense it as well.
