Hildon

Hildon was a Wild Zombie that resembled a stitched-up vampire. He appeared to act as a messenger in-between the members of Thriller Bark's Mysterious Four, reporting to them noteworthy events that were happening throughout the island ship before it fell.

Appearance


Hildon had a bat-like body covered in bandages. He wore a dark purple cape that doubled as his wings and enabled him to fly. He had talons capable of suspending him upside down. He had sharp teeth with vampiric fangs, red claws, a long and stitched nose, pointed ears, and his eyes, if not sunken, seemed to have strange tattoos encircling them. Above his right eye was the number 21, and above his left was a stitch trailing from his eye to his hairline.

When he first appeared, he carried a very large long-necked bottle of what appeared to be liquor on his back. He somewhat resembled a vampire.

Personality
He seemed to be loyal to Gecko Moria, contacting him when Ryuma was defeated, and when the Straw Hats were counter-attacking the Denizens.

For the most part, he is amiable and polite when interacting with others casually.

He seemed to prefer avoiding combat, and may have been the only zombie who interacted with the Straw Hats without fighting them at some point.

Abilities and Powers
As a zombie, his only weakness was salt. He is also capable of flight, with his large bat wings.

Thriller Bark Arc
After the three Straw Hats escaped from the Cerberus, Hildon offered to take Nami, Chopper, and Usopp on a carriage ride to the mansion where Hogback lives.

In the carriage drawn by a Centaur and what looks like a hound ridden by a hunchback holding a lantern, Hildon took the three through the forest of Thriller Bark and left them in a graveyard. He then flew off towards the mansion.

Later, after the Straw Hats began their counter attack on Thriller Bark, he warned Moria of this, as well as when Ryuma was beaten by Zoro.

Moria, after being beaten by Luffy, used his Shadow Asgard technique to increase his power by absorbing all one thousand shadows in Thriller Bark, thus leaving Hildon a hollow shell once again.

Trivia

 * In the Japanese version of the manga and anime, Hildon had a lisp, saying "shi" instead of "su". In the English version of the manga and anime, he didn't have a lisp.
 * He may have had a lisp due to his fangs getting in the way. He was never seen with his lips fully closed.
