Friedrich Kreisler

"'Due to personal reasons, I will become God.'"

Seredy Kreisler is an ex-Yakuza Executive and the main antagonist of A Bizarre Adventure. In spite of the fact that he is most frequently referred to as "Seredy Kreisler", Seredy is not his real name. Currently, he is the head and leader of Sabre of the World.

Pre-Masquerade Ball Arc
Kreisler is quite short with a petite, yet muscular build. He has grey eyes and striking blue hair that frames his face, with a longer section that falls just past his left shoulder. He wears a black hat with a red hatband, and a thin silver chain that hangs over the brim. His outfit consists of a white button up shirt under a dark red vest, a black ribbon bolo tie held together with a small silver buckle, an open black cropped jacket with the sleeves rolled up at the elbows, black slacks, a black belt hanging off his right hip and black low-arch shoes. He is almost always seen wearing black gloves.

Post-Masquerade Ball Arc
A few inches taller, Kreisler continues to retain his physical appearance although he appears to be more skinnier than he was from being locked up in Tartarus. He wears a white shirt and pants, accompanied with a long white overcoat with black fur around the collar. Kreisler also wears black gloves and white long boots.

Personality
Showing a calm and confident personality most of the time, Kreisler doesn't appear to fear to his enemies, boasting enough courage to let himself be captured by them. Despite being extremely arrogant, he is a straightforward and intelligent man with a truly sinister personality.

He calls himself a god. Always talking about the sinful nature of men, he possesses a strong religious belief. He refers to almost every member of the Crystal Guardians as 'dear friends', mainly Kizu Yamamoto.

Prof. Howard mentions that Kreisler is physically and genetically perfect, but due to the enhanced drug which he was given, his physical prowess were lowered drastically. The same goes for the other subjects, as to the reason why they were more tilted towards solving crimes and such. He possesses a monstrous charisma and an inhuman prowess for manipulation and is highly proficient at analysis and deduction, especially when it comes to the human psyche, and can instantly gain direct access to people's cores, hitting their weak spots, acknowledging their worth, and figuring out their mental processes, manipulating them easily thereafter. He possess innate understanding/knowledge of psychology.

Abilities
Kreisler's Stand, War and Peace (a reference to Leo Tolstoy's book, War and Peace)

It is believed its ability is to manipulate gravity, but as seen from Anna Karenina's death, it is something far, far from gravity manipulation. It is hinted to be something that is able to kill someone with one touch. This ability is not restricted to skin-to-skin contact.
