Ikki Kurogane is an F-rank Apprentice Knight who strives to become a real Mage Knight. He is a young man of average height with dark brown hair and brown eyes.
A noble young man with a caring personality. Ikki can be very cruel under certain circumstances. When it comes dealing women of his age and the whole academy in general Ikki is really clumsy because he has no prior experience with them outside of respect towards a superior or as a knight. This really shows when he confronts Stella on that subject.
Ikki is very skilled - allowing him to defeat someone way stronger than him such as Stella as it is revealed when he beats Stella in a duel in chapter 1. He was held back a year and was not allowed to attend the classes as his Kurogane family head had ordered the chairman of his school to never let him graduate.
He has the ability to learn others physical fighting techniques by just looking at them while fighting which he calls as Blade Steal. He has amazing observation ability which allows him to grasp enemies stances and learn their movements or know when or where they will attack. He is very matured while dealing with situations. He is dense when it comes about girls as he was not able to socialise with them as he was hated by his classmates or schoolmates being known as "The Worst" because of F ranking. He has a sister who has Brother Complex as she is the who takes his first kiss in front of the whole class telling it as a greeting and for the reason of not being able to meet him for four years.
In volume 1 of the light novel, chapter 10 of the manga adaption, and episode 4 of the anime adaptation, he and Stella became lovers. He said that he loved her from the start and found her very charming but couldn't say it because Stella is princess of Vermillion family.
In volume 3 of the light novel and episode 12 of the anime, Ikki defeats Toudou Touka in one slash and wins the match. Later on the same stage, Stella runs and comes to catch him from falling and he asks her to be his family to which Stella replies to make her his bride and they kiss while everyone is shocked by the events. He later gets chosen as the leader of the Seven Star Battle Festival by Touka.
