Timothy Hearst

Timothy Hearst is a fictional character from the series D.Gray-man. He is the youngest current serving exorcist at the Black Order

Appearance
Timothy is a boy of average weight and height. He has blue mullet-like (short hair at the front and sides and long at the back) haircut and brown eyes. At the orphanage he wore a large striped bandanna to cover his innocence, which appears as a jewel on his forehead he also wore rather ordinary clothes excluding his pointy slippers which had a slightly oriental feel.

His exorcist uniform is different from what older exorcists wear. Although the jacket wasn't modified the rest of his uniform has been changed: it has shorts, pads and roller-skates instead of regular boots

Personality
Timothy is very much a brat in all ways. He is immature and childish, but with a perverted air as well, as shown when he gropes Emilia. Originally he is arrogant and greedy, but it is later revealed that he was only trying to help the orphanage, in which case he shows his true caring nature. He fights to protect the ones he love, but is still young and inexperienced.

When he joins the Black Order, he makes Komui Lee pay for everything he stole and more, showing that Timothy still retains his greedy air.

History
Timothy was born and rised in Paris. He is a son of a minor jewel thief who was chased by inspector Galmar (Emilia's father).

The fear of getting caught was so strong that the thief forced young Timothy to swallow stolen jewel, however it wasn't enough to buy himself the freedom and after raid set up by Galmar the man was caught and, probably, imprisoned.

Emilia tried to convince inspector to adopt Timothy - but Glamar refused feeling guilty for the commotion he made during the raid

That's why he decided to leave Timothy in Hurst Orphanage after consultation with a doctor it was revealed that it's impossible to remove said jewel from the boy's forehead - which made Timothy hatred toward his father grow even more

2 years after his arrival to the Orphanage Timothy discovered his ability to posses people but he didn't use it because he knew that there was no need but after discovering Orphanage financial problems he decided to use his ability to make money out of stealing.

Thief G Arc
When Thief G first appears, he leaps from a window and is immediately captured, dispite claiming that he will never be caught.

It is discovered that Thief G has been using innocent people in some way to commit his crimes, including finders from the Black Order.

Thief G's first manga crime takes place at the Louvre in Paris, wear he intends to steal an expensive crown. The exorcists lay in wait for him, and Kanda Yu immediately defeats him. The crown is handed to a police officer, who is then controlled by the phantom and turns into Thief G. When Allen and Link ambush the new Thief, he throws the crown, and possesses Link. The thief is able to use all of Link's abilities and weapons, and has excellent control over them.

The thief laughs at the officer who was reprimanded as G, Allen's accusations angers the thief who fights back, but is, again, easily defeated. He is pierced by Allen's sword and threw a tantrum, sobbing uncontrollably. He leaves Link's body, and is tracked down to the orphanage by Noise Marie, to whom his cries are easily recognizable.

Timothy at the Orphanage
Timothy is shown for the second time (the first time being his perverted attack on Emilia ) at the orphanage. Emilia tries to make him study, and he retaliates by running, then grabbing her chest. She kicks him through the door into Allen Walker, whom he possesses. His ruse is up, and he is captured.

Timothy's past is revealed, showing that his father was a thief who stole a jewel and made Timothy eat it. The jewel was actually innocence, and bonded with Timothy, planting itself in his forehead. The exorcists state their intentions to make Timothy join the order, but a barrier is set up around the orphanage, and the second Level 4 Akuma appears.

Fighting the Akuma
While Allen, Kanda, and Marie fight the Level 4 Akuma, Timothy and Link meet two Level 2 Akuma, and one Level 3 Akuma, who have been turning the humans to dolls and hunting down the innocence. Mother Superior is turned into a doll by the Level 2, and Emilia is shot by one of the nuns who work at the orphanage, but secretly helps the Earl. The broker is turned into a doll, and the Level 2 captures Timothy. Link tries to seal the level 2, but is ambushed by more Akuma, and is turned into a doll as well.

When Emilia tries to free Timothy and the Akuma approach her, Timothy takes control of the Level 2 Akuma that has turned humans into doll, releasing and activating "Divine Possession" for the first time. His innocence takes a human form, and helps teach Timothy how to fight, and he defeats the other Level 2 Akuma. When he attempts to fight the level 3, he fails, so he attempts to possess the Level 3 instead. Again, he fails, since his innocence isn't developed to that level yet. When he goes back to possess the Level 2, he finds that it has been purified and disappeared. He flees back to his body, and is saved by Link, is was able to move after Timothy purified the Level 2 Akuma. Link's body starts to crack, but his innocence tells Timothy that he can't help Link by possessing him. The Level 3 goes to defeat Link, but a member of CROW comes in and absorbs the Akuma.

The Level 4 Akuma is defeated by Allen and Kanda, and Timothy is rescued. He shares a few last touching moments with Mother Superior, then joins the Dark Order as an exorcist with Emilia who pledges to help in any way she can.

He leaves later that day and is last seen being tutored by Emilia and supervised by Klaud Nine much to Timothy's dismay. Timothy has also become the new apprentice of Klaud Nine, much to the disappointment of Froi Tiedoll.

Third Exorcist Arc
He is last seen in Greece along side Klaud Nine, Lenalee Lee and Koushi. His current status is unknown.

Ability
Timothy's innocence is the jewel in his forehead that allows him to take control over other people. When he uses it on Akuma for the first time, it is finally released and activated as "Divine Possession", or Tsukikami. It's shapeless form eats an Akuma, and assumes more human look , calling itself Divine Possession's "Second". As Timothy's guide it teaches the boy about the usage and abilities he owns.

Tsukikami's current form is based on Timothy's imagination of himself as an adult.

Timothy's possession over Akumas means that he can fight normally, along with using all the original abilities of the Akuma before it got possessed. Timothy is currently only able to control Akumas up to the second Level, and is unable to fight on his own with higher levels. Tsukikami grows in power each time Timothy uses it, which means that he will, eventually, be able to control Level 3 and perhaps Level 4 Akumas later.

The akuma he posses transforms into childish-looking creature, made purely of innocence.

Once he leaves, possessed by him, Akuma it gets purified and turns to dust. When it happens, the affects left behind are repealed.
