However, how he met Ali, Baptistin, and Bertuccio is still uncertain. Eventually, he would also "free" Haydee from her enslavement. At that moment, "The Count of Monte Cristo" and Gankutsuou became co-conspirators, working together to destroy the lives of those who had ruined the Count's life. The result was Edmond being sent to Chateau d'If where the world believed he had perished, all thanks to Crown Prosecutor Gerard de Villefort, who was included in a letter that Edmond had that Villefort didn't want anyone to see or read.Īfter spending several lonely and agonizing years in Chateau d'If, a mentally-insane and vengeful Edmond Dantes would be assisted by Gankutsuou, "The King of the Cavern", who would provide Edmond with the ability to exact his vengeance while Gankutsuou could have his body and mind. After the captain of the ship that Edmond worked on fell ill and died, however, Edmond would eventually become the victim of a terrible betrayal, as Fernand and Baron Danglars had orchestrated Edmond's arrest. However, Fernand was envious of his friend, and conspired against him with Jullian Danglars. For instance, he conditioned Haydee Tebelin into believing that she was free, only for her to find out that she was merely doing what the Count wanted her to do and nothing else.īack when he was known as Edmond Dantes, he, Fernand Mondego and Mercedes Herrera were the very best of friends, with Edmond and Mercedes deeply in love with each other. He is also a very good liar and was prone to psychological abuse. He also has no trouble causing serious collateral damage, with Valentine Villefort and other innocent people not involved in the betrayal being prime examples. He cares about no one or the people he hurts, sometimes even enjoying the misery he causes, and he is more than willing to take a life if it means furthering his goals. Now, while the Count initially comes off as a kind, caring, and empathetic gentleman to those who first meet him, behind the scenes, he is a manipulative, vengeful, traitorous, uncompromising, and sociopathic schemer who cares only about his intentions, using people only as pawns and nothing more, something that the heroic Haydee would eventually learn the hard way. The Count was also capable of feeling genuine love for others, such as with his relationship with Mercedes. Much of his torso has become see-through, especially around the area of his heart.īefore his betrayal, the Count was a lot more naive, merciful, and sympathetic, often being ignorant of what was going on behind his back and going easy on people who did bad things, like when Baron Danglars was caught embezzling funds. His hands are sometimes covered by white gloves to hide his see-through, crystalline body parts. The Count also wears a top hat and cape, and he also holds a gold cane with a green, glowing jewel at the top. In terms of clothing, the Count normally wears a black suit with a fire-like design on the sleeves. The Count's ears have also become pointy, and his teeth now resemble that of a vampire's. His eyes also changed color, with his left eye becoming yellow-green, and his right eye becoming red, signifying that Gankutsuou has possessed him. After the Count's transformation, his skin became light blue and his goatee and hair became dark blue. During his time in Chateau d'If, the Count would eventually get a beard, which, upon his transformation into the Count, would be fashioned into a goatee. When the Count looks normal, he has tan skin and dark brown hair.
