First Generation

The First Generation was 2 generations of mainland claymores, one generation all male and the other all female. The first generation was composed of the survivors of the first resistance war and is considered the strongest generation. The first generation fought during the Re-establishment and utterly crushed the rebellious claymores. Every member of the generation was forced to swear an oath of silence about the Mainland, the drach, and the war. The members of the first generation were from a wide variety of backgrounds and ethnicities, and wore different uniforms, unique to each individual state they hailed from. The presence of the first generation in Tolaine shaped many of Tolaine's particular customs, especially since Tolaine had largely been without any influence and was in a period of weakness from the events detailed in the original Claymore by Yagi. Many of the members of the first generation are still alive.

The top 5 of the male generation were meant to be an anti-army force. They were supposedly strong enough to defeat an army with their combined skill. Known members of the first male generation:
