Night CLass Students
Night Class students are young vampires who attend Cross Academy and live in the Moon Dormitory, while wearing white uniforms. They are offsprings of elite families in vampire society and are of noble blood, gathered by Kaname Kuran, in order to pursue peace between humans and vampires. They are extremely beautiful and highly intelligent. As they are nocturnal and sensitive to sunlight, they attend classes during the night and sleep during the day.
Akatsuki Kain
Akatsuki Kain is Hanabusa Aido's cousin and considered one of "Lord Kaname's right-hand men." While the Day Class girls have nicknamed him "Wild", Kain is actually mellower than Aido and his laid-back attitude and association with Aido frequently sees him getting into trouble, despite not being directly responsible. Kain is incredibly perceptive and frequently sensitive to others' feelings, most particularly with his cousins, Aido and Ruka's. Kain has the ability to conjure and control fire. It has been hinted that Kain has some feelings for Ruka but he has yet to reveal his true feelings to her. His protectiveness over Ruka is the only thing preventing him from fully devoting himself to Kaname like Aido. During Rido's attack on Cross Academy, Kain and Ruka fight vampires attacking the Day Class on Kaname's orders.
After the one year time-skip, Akatsuki leaves with Ruka and Kaname. Aido runs into him and Akatsuki says that he's going back to Kaname's side. In chapter 79, he and Ruka arrive back at the Academy. He gets into a fight with Aido,but manages to escape with Ruka.

Hanabusa Aido
Hanabusa Aido nicknamed "Idol" by the Day Class girls, Aido is well known among the Night Class along with his cousin Akatsuki Kain to be "Lord Kaname's right hand". His fierce admiration for Kaname borders though extremely loyal, Aido has a tendency to overstep his boundaries, which results in Kaname punishing him if discovered. A noble-class vampire who can conjure and control ice, Aido often appears cheerful and friendly one moment, but vindictive and cruel the next. In spite of his seeming capriciousness, he is a dedicated and serious individual. A perceptive individual, figures out Zero is a vampire, but he keeps this information to himself without any hidden agenda in mind. He is often irritated at Yuki and her naive ways and he resents the fact Yuki is given special attention from "Lord Kaname". He is temporarily troubled when he witnesses Kaname's killing of a fellow Pureblood and runs away from the Moon Dormitory and imposes himself on Yuki and Zero. Agreeing with Yuki's assertion that he would remain loyal to Kaname even if betrayed by him, he returns to the Pureblood's side.
Aido has difficulty adjusting himself to referring to Yuki in a formal manner following the revelation of her true nature when he is appointed as one of her protectors. During Rido's attack on Cross Academy, Aido protects the Day Class, as ordered by Yuki. Half a year after the incident, Aido becomes Yuki's tutor and protector. After witnessing Kaname kill his father, Aido tries to suppress any hatred towards the Kuran family and collaborates with Yuki to re-establish the Night Class. Hanabusa witnesses Yuki drinking Zero's blood, but refrains from saying anything and instead asks for Rima and Senri to help him snoop around. He follows Kaien in order to track down Kaname but meets instead with his cousin, Akasuki, who blocks his way before leaving him.

Maria Kurenai
Maria Kurenai is a very distant relative of Shizuka Hio. She allows Shizuka to possess her body in exchange for being allowed to drink Shizuka's blood, which would strengthen her weak body. Due to Shizuka's untimely death, this promise is never fulfilled. She seems to be fond of Ichiru Kiryu, and she hugs Zero when she mistakes him for Ichiru. She asks Yuki to tell Zero that if he sees Ichiru, to tell him Maria wants to see him again. She returns to her family after Shizuka's death, and when she sends an crow out to search for Ichiru she witnesses Kaname's destruction of the Senate, and proceeds to spread the news.
Maria returns to Cross Academy to support Yuki and the Night Class. She notices the changes in Zero and Yuki's relationship and tells Yuki she intends to take Zero. She becomes closer to Zero, seeking him out and finding the presence of his twin within him. She helps Yuki with retrieving Sara's blood tablets from the Night Class, and tells Yuki that she can't cure Zero's hunger. The two discover Hanadagi's servant, and Zero shows up and orders her to take her to Kaito. Maria encounters Ruka and Kain, and attempts to attack them, but they tell her that they are just passing through.

RIma TOuya
Rima Touya is one of the youngest Night Class students and she works as a model alongside Senri Shiki. Rima is smart and usually appears uninterested and indifferent. She is often blunt and has a fairly quick temper. She possesses a personality similar to Shiki. Rima possesses lightning or electricity related abilities. She shares a fondness for Pocky with Shiki. After suspecting Shiki has changed upon his return to school, Rima confronts Rido and demands him to leave Shiki's body since she can tell that he is not Shiki. She is wounded by Rido by a blood whip shooting through her side, but is saved by Ichijo. While injured, she tries to convince Shiki to snap out of his state and calls him an idiot for letting Rido control him. Badly wounded, she is sent back to the Moon Dormitory by Ichijo. Rima is later seen at the vampire ball with Shiki and at a photoshoot at a school Sara Shirabuki was spotted at. Rima rejoins the newly established Night Class, but has since become a critic of Kaname's actions.
She becomes worried because Senri has taken the new blood tablets, and rushes to him after Takuma and Sara accompany Zero to the Hunter's Association.

RUka Souen
Ruka Souen is a female noble vampire who provides a stark contrast to Yuki Cross. She is 169 cm tall. Her power is to control other vampires into killing each other or themselves. Ruka has been in love with Kaname Kuran since she was a child and thus remains close to him as a faithful friend. However, she ironically remains unaware of Kain's unrequited love for her. She is also long-time friends to her cousins Aido and Kain. She has an intense jealousy towards any humans that raise Kaname's interest. Her character becomes more jealous and disheartened towards the end of the first arc after she learns that Yuki is engaged to Kaname. Despite all this, she continues to maintain an unrequited love for Kaname. Like the rest of the Night Class, she works with Kain and Aido to defend girls in the Day Class during the attack on Cross Academy from hostile vampires. After Yuki's transformation into her former vampire self, Ruka becomes closer to Yuki, such as giving her etiquette lessons, though she is still intensely jealous of her. While Ruka is kind to Yuki and other girls, she avoids them when she can. Yuki eventually confronts Kaname about her, to which Kaname tells Yuki that it will be a long time before Ruka can forgive him for once drinking her blood- consequently making Ruka believe he loved her- but never truly repaying her for the act. In chapter 81, Ruka helps Kaname get away from Yuki by creating an illusion of Zero killing her, and later apologizes to Kaname about letting Yuki see something horrible.
Seiren
Seiren is a student of the Night Class, and is Kaname's unofficial bodyguard. She is usually the first to defend Kaname from anyone regarded as a threat to his safety. She threatens to kill Zero when he threatens Kaname with the Bloody Rose. Seiren also appears to serve Kaname in the capacity of a spy or informant, for example she is the one that tells Kaname that his uncle, Rido, has risen. She practices martial arts to use herself as a weapon against enemies mainly focusing on her intensely sharp finger nails. Seiren follows Kaname Kuran at his bidding throughout the course of the story.
Senri Shiki
Senri Shiki is one of the youngest Night Class students and works along side Rima Toya as a model.When the Night Class is given orders to hunt down a Level E vampire, Shiki is usually the one seen out hunting the Level E vampires. He has a whip-like weapon which develops from his blood. It is later revealed that Shiki is in fact the son of Rido Kuran, meaning he's Kaname and Yuki's cousin. Shiki possesses a personality similar to Rima Toya. He is usually impassive, and often detached to the rest of the vampires except for Rima and Ichijo. He rarely expresses emotion, and may seem like he doesn't care about his surroundings. Because of his reserved nature, he keeps to himself, and never has much to say.
Takuma Ichijo
Takuma Ichijo is the vice-president of the Night Class. He is an aristocratic vampire nearly as powerful as Kaname, whom he is close to and respects. With his cheerful and enthusiastic demeanor, Ichijo appears very "un-vampire like", lacking the dark atmosphere that surrounds most vampires and making him appear more like a human. Ichijo maintains a close friendship with Senri Shiki. Ichijo is ordered by his grandfather Asato Ichijo to spy on Kaname while attending Cross Academy but refuses out of loyalty for his friend. When Senri Shiki is possessed by Rido Kuran, Ichijo is forced to go against Kaname in order to protect his friends. Once Shiki is freed from Rido's possession, Ichijo rejoins Kaname's side and stops Kaname from killing his grandfather, instead asking that he'd be the one to handle the issue. It appears that Ichijo intended to end his life along with his grandfather's. Takuma was discovered unconscious afterwards by Sara Shirabuki, who said that she always wanted "to have" Takuma. Following the one year time-skip, Takuma remains at Sara Shirabuki's side and cannot return to Kaname's side after being fed with Sara's blood when he was injured, because Sara's blood has been taming him and turn him into her slave. After posing as Sara's brother at the elite school she is scouting, he comes back to the new Night Class formed by Yuki Kuran in Cross Academy, along with Sara, completely under Sara's possession.
In chapter 80, Sara admits to him that she has always wanted him, which Ichijo takes as a love confession, and believes that Sara was also jealous of Kaname because Ichijo was by his side for so long. Ichijo wonders if Kaname was ever his friend, or was using his powers to keep Ichijo around him. Takuma agrees to follow Sara to the Hunter's Association under Zero's command in chapter 81. Senri, who is with them, asks him why he would make this decision. Ichijo answers that this was always his decision.
