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 a blue mullet-like (short hair at the front and sides and long at the back) haircut and brown eyes. At the orphanage he wore rather normal clothing consisting of a large striped bandana (to cover his innocence), an orange baggy shirt, brown cropped pants, a blue choker around his neck and pointy slippers.

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

Personality
Timothy acts like a boy his age should – he is immature, childish and hates studying. It's easy to throw him off balance and when confronted with a problem he finds hard to deal with (in both physical and mental way) he either throws a tantrum or starts to cry uncontrollably.

He is also shown as having quite perverted ideas, mostly to do with groping women such as Emilia or Lenalee.

At first he seems to be arrogant and greedy, but it’s a false appearance. He really cares for people he loves or admires and tries to help them. Unfortunately, his young age and lack of experience often cause him to be more of a hinderance than a help. .

Although not all of his actions are of pure, free will, after joining the Black Order he forces Komui Lee to pay for all the items he stole.

History
Timothy was born and raised in Paris, his father a minor jewel thief who was chased by inspector Galmar (Emilia's father).

During one heist, the fear of getting caught was so strong that his father forced young Timothy to swallow a stolen jewel. However during a raid set up by Galmar his father was caught and imprisoned.

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

Instead, he decided to leave Timothy in Hurst Orphanage, but not before consultating with a doctor about the jewel. It was revealed that it was impossible to remove the jewel from Timothy's forehead, which made his hatred toward his father grow even more

Two years after his arrival at the orphanage, Timothy discovered his ability to possess people. He never used his power though, because he knew that there was no need However, after discovering the orphanage's financial problems, he decided to use his ability to make money by resorting to theft.

Introduction
When Thief G first appears, he leaps from a window and is immediately captured, despite 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 crimes take place at the Louvre in Paris, where 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. Walker's 'odd behaviour' alert the rest of the group, the truth is revealed and Timothy is caught red-handed.

As Mother Superior tells the Exorcists about Timothy's past, which confirms their supposition of boy being a Innocence's user , the skulls erect a barrier around the orphanage and sends Level 4 Akuma.

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 Black Order as an exorcist with Emilia who pledges to help in any way she can.

Timothy has become the new apprentice of Klaud Nine, much to the disappointment of Froi Tiedoll. Later that day is seen being tutored by Emilia - while their progress is supervised by Klaud Nine much to Timothy's dismay.

Third Exorcist Arc
He is last seen in Greece along side Klaud Nine, Lenalee Lee and Koushi. After coming back to the Black Order headquarters he's seen as he attended the feast - along side with other Exorcists and Science division - prepared by Jerry. During the meal Tsukikami voiced out his confusion toward passing by Cardinal - but the Innocence wasn't sure about the feeling.

Innocence
Tsukikami (憑神 (ツキガミ), Tsukigami): Timothy's Innocence, a Parasitic type, is centered in the jewel in his forehead. It 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.

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 effects left behind are repealed.

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

Tsukikami has a ghost-like shape of a tall man in the mid-twenties. He has the same haircut as his host – Timothy, but purple colored, pointy ears and white skin with navy-green markings: cross on the forehead (with the vertical line ending on the bridge of his nose), characteristic markings under the eyes and marked upper lip. His nails have the same color ,.

Tsukikami wears loose white kimono (with Japanese character in the front) fastened with stripped purple obi and blue-white thick rope. His pants have blue and white checker pattern. Tsukikami is barefooted.

Personality
Tsukikami is a first Innocence shown with a developed personality and identifiable gender. He can verbally communicate with either his accommodator or with others via his accommodator.

Although his accomodator is his master. He and Timothy treat each-other rather familiarly.
