Soul Evans is a demon weapon who was born into a family of famous musicians. After discovering his weapon abilities as a demon scythe, Soul joined Death Weapon Meister Academy where he partnered with the scythe-meister, Maka Albarn. Soul's attitude is laid-back and nonchalant at the start, as he tries to mold himself to his expectations of how someone "cool" would act. He is almost the complete opposite of Maka Albarn, being reserved and aloof. He often expresses how he feels about some situations by either claiming that something is "cool" or "not cool", Being a cool guy, he prefers to use the direct or stupid approach, which most of the time fails. He has a unique love for eating souls that seems to not be shared by many of the other Weapons, drooling quite frequently when his next meal is nearby. He also seems to be a glutton towards food in general. He can sometimes become too driven by the thought of eating souls, which leads him to bicker with Maka or become impatient with her; but despite their squabbles, they are always able to maintain a solid friend-partner relationship. He is slightly immature by being headstrong, stubborn, apathetic to most things, and argumentative. He firmly believes that breaking promises and changing sides 'isn't cool at all'. Deep down, he is always looking out for his friends and is even willing to sacrifice himself to protect his partner, Maka, showing his bravery and dedication. He is also quick-thinking and cunning, being able to figure out a plan or a strategy rather quickly. He always tends to think things through before doing certain actions. Although this makes him more aware of things that some people cannot see, it sometimes hinders him as he often ends up doubting and hesitating at crucial moments, thereby making him very indecisive when a decision has to be made quickly.
