Personality

Allen tends to be shy around strangers, but he's very polite when interacting with new people. He has no problem getting up in front of a crowd to perform, in fact he enjoys it. It's the personal interaction that can leave him flustered sometimes. He has a humbleness that is unshakable before most, and is self sacrificial to the worry of his friends. He is caring in ways you could not imagine, even for souls and departed beings of the world.

He does, however, have a rather serious side to him and a backbone the likes of which you would never assume. Whenever there is someone in danger, most especially someone he considers a friend and companion, he rises to the occasion with an unrivaled determination. His emotions can often get the best of him in these situations and at times can become a downfall when up against something he is ill-prepared for. Allen is also a rather awkward teenage boy. He is only fifteen years old and despite all he has gone through in the end he still has spazzy moments, arguments against others about nicknames or situations.

His time with General Cross has had a lasting impression on him. Allen doesn't seem to have much self worth, and could easily be attributed to how he was treated with Cross. He was needlessly abused by this man. Their relationship was literally more like a Master//Slave relationship rather then Teacher/Studen and could account for much of his social awkwardness and odd behaviors. He was actually terrified of meeting other generals because of how he was treated. I believe this is the reason why he was so quick to believe that he was no longer human, and nothing more then a weapon to fight akuma.

Despite all of this he's never abandoned his fathers tenement of 'keep walking.' No mater what horrible things happened to him, no matter how pained he became, Allen always pushed himself through it with an almost single-minded determination. Fear and depression never held him back from the things he needed to accomplish.

Powers and Abilities

An Innocence weapon is the only weapon that can both destroy an akuma and release the trapped soul inside. If something else manages to destroy an akuma, then the soul is destroyed as well. Much like the akuma, because Allen's innocence is a parasite type it has gone through a series of evolutions.

Form 1: a massive white claw that can change in size, growing large enough to tear the roof off a house if he wanted. It looks like plated armor made of bone. Form 2: a cannon that shoots out rods of energy that can litter an area, even be picked up and used as weapons but they'll disappear the moment he deactivates. Form 3: similar to the cannon only instead of firing the rods, one of them remains as something like a light saber.

The final form is drastically different and changes more then just his arm. It has been given the name The Clown of God or 'The Crowned Clown' due to it's jester like appearance. When invoked, a white light cloak drapes around his body, shifting in length and form as he moves. It doesn't look tangible, but it is able to act as a shield against akuma attacks.

Another distinguishable feature about the Crowned Clown is that there is a distinctly harlequin-esque, silver mask that will cover Allen's face, or hover off to the side over his shoulder. It seems to act as though it were the face of his Innocence itself.

His arm has a new form, thin and sleek and black with a hand that looks more like a cluster of scythes rather then fingers. Allen can also remove this arm, taking it by the wrist and pulling until it forms into a gigantic claymore thats about a foot wide and longer then his body is tall. It has the power to exorcise evil, leaving the host unharmed. Though in the case of the Noah, it seems to unleash their full potential.

Along with the Crowned Clown form came a slew of new abilities: Cross Grave: By etching a cross onto a target, he can crucify and destroy them with little effort. (The was a time when he touched a Lvl3 akuma and it seemed to fall into a state of elation as it's soul was saved and set free just before it was destroyed. I don't know if that is part of this ability or something else) Clown Belt: The cape that Allen's innocence forms can be formed into webbing of energy that can be used to grasp objects, immobilize opponents, or form hardened spikes to impale enemies. Crown Edge: An attack that fires crown like rings of energy from his claws, Edge End: A powerful swipe of raw Innocence energy let loose when Allen slashes with his claws.

When de-activated, his arm is still much stronger than a normal human. He has been able to catch bullets with it or stop blades.

Like his Innocence, the curse in Allen's eye evolved over time as well. Initially, whenever Akuma were near by it would activate, turning black with red rings. It let him see the souls that were trapped inside the akuma. During the battle at Krory's castle where Allen was fighting the Akuma call Eliade, Allen's cursed eye went through a transformation. A strange, bonelike monocle appeared around his eye that magnified his powers, allowing him not only to see the chained souls, but to hear them beg for help and cry in anguish.

S1 Limitations: Ever since Allen hit the Crowned Crown form of his Innocence, we never see the older forms of it again. Since it's refereed to as an 'evolution' I don't think he can go backwards. I'm going to keep him having the cloak and mask and scythe claws, but he's not going to have the strength to use any of his other abilities like the Cross Grave and the Edge End.

It's going to be hard for him to actually invoke it because Allen needs to eat inordinate amounts of food to keep up his energy because it is a parasite. Because the lack of food in S1, every time he invokes it he'll be left in exhaustion. But without akuma around he really doesn't have a need to invoke it.

His eye will work as normal, but since there are no akuma it's not going to offer him any help with anything he might be doing. Though, the purpose of the eye is to seek out akuma, and on occasion it's going to try weather or not he wants it too. This happened a few times in the manga, and more times then we've seen. Whenever this happens, it causes Allen a lot of pain and distress.

History

Allen Walker, abandoned at birth was picked up by a man by the name of Mana Walker. Obviously unaffected by Allen’s horribly deformed arm, Mana named him and deemed him his son. All was good for a good portion of Allen’s life up until he turned 12, when an accident stole Mana’s life and left him there, alone.

Depressed, tired, and grieving, poor, young Allen was ready to give up anything to bring Mana back; little did he know that his life was apart of that ‘anything’.

At Mana’s grave Allen was meet by a strange person, the Millennium Earl, who claimed he could bring back Mana. Hope is a fragile thing, yet dangerous if used wrongly. This was how the Earl worked, playing on other’s hopes and wishes to fit his desires. Allen was no exception.

Realizing his “bringing back Mana” deal was a trap (anyone would figure it out after being attacked and ordered to be killed), Allen unknowingly activated his Anti-Akuma weapon; his deformed arm transformed into a monstrous claw. With it, he excorsied his father’s fallen soul (In other words, an Akuma) and the Earl disappeared.

Beaten, crying, and confused beyond belief is how Cross Marian found him.

From there on out, Allen learned the ways if the Earl and his Akuma, about Exorcists and how he was somehow weaved into this life of the Damned and Holy. Three years later he joined the Dark Order and officially became an exorcist. There, he meet Rinali, Lavi, Kanda, Miranda, Krowley, and so many others that made his life much more worth living and made him stronger.
