‘The Blind Dog’ is a story about mutual interdependence: just as the dog relies on the blind man for food, so the blind beggar relies on the dog to be his guide dog and help him to move around the town.

Click here to see quotes from Adrien Agreste.
Adrien Agreste is one of the two titular main protagonists (alongside Marinette Dupain-Cheng) of Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir and Miraculous World. He is a human-sentimonster created by his late mother Emilie Agreste from her emotions of love. He is a former student in Miss Bustier's class at Collège Françoise Dupont in Paris, France. He is also a former fashion model for his late father's brand.
With the Cat Miraculous, when inhabited by Plagg, Adrien transforms into the black cat-themed superhero Cat Noir ("Chat Noir" in the French version), gaining the power of destruction to stop Hawk Moth/Shadow Moth/Monarch and his akumatized villains. He is the second-in-command of the French Miraculous superhero team.
In "Syren", after Master Wang Fu translates the Grimoire in order to find a way to give Ladybug and Cat Noir the ability to transform into different powered up forms, he is able to make the potion that grants the aqua form. Adrien is able to use it to become Aqua Noir, which gives him a specially modified aqua suit with fins on his feet, granting him the enhanced swimming capabilities, as well as allowing him to breathe and speak underwater.
In "Frozer" when the titular akumatized supervillain freezes over Paris to turn the city into his domain, Adrien uses Master Fu's Magic camembert to transform into Ice Cat, which gives him a specially modified ice suit with skates on his feet, granting him enhanced skating capabilities as well as allowing him to stand subzero temperatures.
In "Reflekdoll", Adrien temporarily obtained the Ladybug Miraculous, which, when inhabited by Tikki, would be able to transform him into a ladybug-themed superhero Mister Bug, gaining the power of creation.
Physical appearance
Adrien is a handsome and fair-skinned teenage boy with an average height who is about half a head taller than Marinette Dupain-Cheng with brushed-back blond hair that is swept to the right, emerald-green eyes, a rosy tint on his cheeks, nose and the tips of his ears.
Civilian attire
Adrien wears a white button-down jacket with an upturned collar and sleeves rolled up above his elbow, which he keeps unbuttoned. Underneath, he wears a black t-shirt with five horizontal stripes around the chest, which are colored, from top to bottom, yellow, brown, bright green, navy blue, and purple. He wears blue jeans and orange sneakers with white laces, and a logo of a black butterfly in a circle on the sides. On the ring finger of his right hand, he wears the Cat Miraculous, which is silver when he's not transformed. He wears the Graham de Vanily Twin Rings on the ring finger of his left hand. He sometimes carries the lucky charm bracelet Marinette gave him in his pocket.
As Cat Noir
Cat Noir has cat eyes with green sclerae, dark green irises and slitted pupils. His hair becomes longer and untamed and it covers his normal ears. Cat Noir wears a textured black skin-tight catsuit with metal details. He wears matching gloves that have claws on the fingertips and boots with a hidden wedge, silver toes, and paw-shaped treads. He has a golden bell on his neck, connected to a zipper on the front of his costume, and a long belt that wraps around his waist and hangs out from the back like a tail. He wears black cat ears and a black mask to cover his face. When transformed, his ring turns black and gains a bright green paw print on its face. He keeps his staff attached to his lower back.
Adrien is a dreamer and charismatic, but he is also often shy, a bit reserved and considerably innocent and naive — particularly due to his unfamiliarity with much of the world beyond his father's reach. According to Nino Lahiffe, because of it, he resembled a baby bird afraid to come out of his shell. Due to his kind heart with or without his mask, Adrien always tries to see the best in others, to those that have mean or cruel intentions, like Lila Rossi and Chloé Bourgeois, he's willing to give second chances believing that with patience and time, anyone can change. His patience does have limits though, as he ended his friendship with Chloé after she refused to apologize for her actions in "Queen Banana", even though they reconciled in the next episode. As his patience ended with Chloe when he found out about her actions in "Derision", ending their friendship.
However in "Revelation", he saw the difference of those who mean well and those who don't. It is seen that he reaches his limit of patience with those who manipulate such as Chloe and Lila. This is demonstrated as he becomes blunt to Lila, and ends his friendship with Chloe.
Despite that, he can be oblivious at times to the darkness or mischief in the hearts of others, like his father Gabriel Agreste or his cousin Félix Fathom. Also extending to the situations of others like in the Season 4 finale if he thought more clearly and remembered as Cat Walker that it is possible he could be akumatized like Ladybug and everyone else when she mentioned it was her greatest fear and tried to protect him. Possibly oblivious of his own actions such as when he asked to take on some of his partner's responsibilities to prevent Ladybug's akumatization. His reaction in "Rocketear", when Nino told Adrien of him and Alya knowing their identities through Ladybug as she did it in an emergency the same way he found loopholes in his father's rules he wouldn't have reacted with that much shock or anger.
Even though he is not very openly emotional to most people, he is friendly, empathetic, understanding, supportive, selfless, and encouraging to others in hard times and will defend his friends against those who would do them harm. His will for exposure, change and making friends definitely complements his personality, although it is a bit of a struggle for Adrien due to his busy schedule. He always put the needs and feelings of others above his own even with those like Plagg or Chloe, with or without his mask, he connects with the hearts of others before speaking his feelings of anger or sadness. He does it with many of his classmates and friends. Like with Marinette Dupain-Cheng to think before she speaks and to be more open-minded, positive, and patient when she dislikes people or feels emotions of anger. Or with Kagami Tsurugi to be more understanding, open-hearted, and compassionate when it comes to others who make her feel hurt or insecure.
Adrien's shyer and gentler characteristics can be observed in awkward, uncomfortable situations or scenarios with particular people. This was shown when he nervously asked Marinette to sign his copy of Jagged Stone's new album, shyly greeted Ladybug in "Simon Says", posed with Marinette as their alter-egos in Clara Nightingale's music video and tried to make Marinette more comfortable around him, but froze up and instead played a joke during "The Puppeteer 2".
While liking to have fun, Adrien is more serious, obedient, somewhat insecure and less lively due to his strict upbringing. He is sensitive and perceptive; he was the only one who thought it was rude to party when Chloé told everyone she was 'leaving Paris'. He gets his feelings hurt and cries easily-- mention of his mother is enough to make his eyes tear up-- however he is used to disappointment and is able to manage these feelings to avoid attracting akumas. When in public, he usually tries to downplay his feelings on it, like his relationship with his father. He has an easier time letting his feelings show to those whom he is close to. However, Adrien will act on impulse if emotional enough, like lying to Théo Barbot out of jealousy about his relationship with Ladybug and sneaking out into the night while unhappy on Christmas, missing his mother. He feels that his father is overprotective, causing him to occasionally act rebelliously, like going places with his friends or alone without informing his family and taking things that don't belong to him, though the former case was caused by his father's over-protection.
As a civilian
As a civilian, studious and formerly home-schooled, Adrien is the top student in his class, with his lowest grade being an A- in Math. This was seen in ¨Reunion¨ when Adrien figured out the Book of Truth's question. He is especially good at physics. Having many extra lessons, Adrien can speak fluent Chinese and Japanese and can even understand Morse code. He is also very skilled at playing the piano and enjoys sharing musical joy with others. Adrien is able to fight on equal grounds with his fencing teacher and fend off most of his students effortlessly, with the exception of Kagami, showing great reflexes and skill for offensive or defensive movements. Other than fencing, Adrien does Karate and Kung Fu, which enables him to fight in hand-to-hand combat and briefly fight his akuma-controlled bodyguard. Furthermore, Adrien takes basketball lessons. He took an interest in video games as well, being able to beat Max Kanté in Ultimate Mecha Strike III and achieve one of the top scores in the entire school (despite being surpassed by Marinette later). The skill came in handy when it was revealed that in "Zombizou" that Adrien can drive because of his experience playing "Extreme Racing 3" and in "Glaciator 2" his skills had improved. In Félix and Multiplication it was also implied that Adrien is good at strategy games like Rummy and Chess. It is shown in "Mr. Pigeon" that he can whistle. Like Marinette, to a possibly lesser extent, Adrien has great stamina and endurance as he was able to outrun a fan mob and was able to handle both the physical and mental strain of wielding two Miraculous together without struggle. Though often looked down on compared to Ladybug and being more simple, straightforward-minded, Adrien is very intelligent, talented, and adaptable. He is able to look for loopholes in his father's rules, which his friends considered "sneaky". He is also able to figure out solutions to problems when Ladybug is M.I.A or affected by a supervillain. In "Psycomedian" when Ladybug was affected by Psycomedian's power, Cat Noir had to figure out how to use the lucky charm on his own and defeat the villain, while Ladybug wasn't in her right mind. This was also seen in "Miraculous Paris" as Cat Noir tricked and surprised Claw Noir multiple times before Claw Noir stole the Cat Miraculous from him. He also tricked Ladybug (and indirectly the suspicious Hawk Moth) into believing he wasn't Adrien in "Gorizilla". Though restless and reckless, Cat Noir is observant, committed, wise, compassionate, and alert noticing where the akumas are hidden several times and finding ways to save/protect his Miraculous or another holder's even when captured or in a tight spot. In Copycat he learned who the fake Cat Noir was, where he may be, and suggested a way to defeat him. Or when he was able to track Frozer down and observe his movements so he could be ready(as seen in the respective episode). This was again seen in "Truth", when Cat Noir gave Ladybug a chance to use her lucky charm without revealing any secrets due to the akumatized villain's power. He is also very wise and compassionate in Miracle Queen or Strikeback he gave Ladybug advice and encouragement to keep fighting and she would always solve the problem. Or when he was able to convince Lila into making up a lie to bring Marinette back to school in "Ladybug". He further demonstrated his skills in his use with the Snake Miraculous as Snake Noir. From his lessons with Master Fu, Adrien has received the same knowledge about the history of the kwamis and the Miraculouses as Marinette, though likely to a lesser extent, as he wasn't prepared to become a guardian. This was seen in "Passion" as Adrien figured out how to defeat Safari without risking his identity or Ladybug's and when he thought about using the wish to put an end to Monarch. He also demonstrated that skill with the Rabbit Miraculous as Rabbit Noir. To a lesser extent compared to Marinette, Adrien does have an artistic side, as he was able to create a lucky charm for Marinette in "Befana". Another example was in "Protection" as he secretly made a picnic for him and Marinette to date and he decorated it beautifully. And in "Glaciator" he adorned a roof so he could tell Ladybug how he felt.
As Cat Noir
Cat Noir has enhanced physical skills such as superhuman speed, agility, and near-invulnerability. He is fast enough to outrun a pair of panthers, being capable of running at least between 35-50 mph. His increased strength allows him to do things such as being able to over shoulder throw his own bodyguard into an elevator, use his staff as a lever to knock over a city bus, roundhouse kick, punch and stomp vending machines and kitchen appliances with just one strike. His increased stamina, durability, and endurance allow him to survive being smashed into a series of cars, a face-plant into a traffic pole, falling several stories, being flung by Gigantitan, and take a crash landing through André's ice cream stand without being dazed or injured. He has even survived attacks from Ikari Gozen and Bakerix, both of whom are akumatized villains who are strong enough to lift and throw around entire city buses. He also has good hand-to-hand combat skills when needed. Even out of "Aqua Mode," Cat Noir is a good swimmer. He can even handle temperatures as severe as absolute 0. Like a cat, Cat Noir has enhanced senses such as hearing, smell, night vision, and super stealth, which he sometimes uses to find opponents. Also, like a cat, Cat Noir can use his claws to climb up surfaces or use them to cut through things. Cat Noir uses his staff efficiently, wielding it as a sword, throwing it with great precision, and having it be deflected back to him. He is able to spin it at high speeds to form a shield or take advantage of its duplication and length-changing features. To travel long distances, he uses his staff and its variety in length to vault over obstacles. In and out of "Aqua Mode", he can also use his staff as a breathing apparatus for those who can't breathe underwater. His special power, Cataclysm, allows him to negatively affect and essentially destroy anything that he touches with his ring hand. While it is usually used for object destruction, it can be used for a variety of different effects, for example, causing a bus's controls to go haywire and creating a platform in a structure. However, like other superheroes, using Cataclysm drains his Miraculous power, causing him to revert back to Adrien five minutes afterward. But, after the events of "Revolution", that is not the case anymore, and he can use as many Cataclysms as he wants without transforming back.
As Mister Bug
He had the same abilities as Ladybug: enhanced skills like speed, agility, and strength, and near invulnerability to physical damage. Like Ladybug, Mister Bug could wield his yo-yo remarkably well, like using it as a grappling hook, a rope to restrain others, a projectile, and a shield if he spins it fast enough. After an evil akuma was released from its corrupted object, he could open his yo-yo, throw it to grab it, and remove the energy it was charged with, releasing it as a normal butterfly. Along with his special power, Lucky Charm creates an object that helps him to achieve his objective, and it often was to stop a villain. Though usually confused at first, his cleverness helped enable him to perceive how the object could be used to help him achieve his goal. However, the Lucky Charm drained his power and caused him to revert back to Adrien shortly afterward, so he had to use it wisely. Once the villain was dealt with, Mister Bug could throw his Lucky Charm object into the air and use the Miraculous Mister Bug, which would make it revert back to energy and fix all of the damage done since the villain appeared.
Tree Notes
•Emilie Agreste mysteriously disappeared before the events of Season 1. She's later revealed to have fallen in a coma from using the broken Peacock Miraculous, and that she's kept in a glass coffin in a garden under the Agreste mansion.

•The name Adrien comes from the Roman cognomen "Hadrianus," which means "from Hadria." In the days of the Roman Empire, Hadria was a town in northern Italy and the namesake of the Adriatic Sea. The Adriatic Sea is known for the dark-colored sand on its beaches, and for this reason, the name is also commonly translated as "dark one."
•His last name Agreste means "rural" in French. It is also the French name for the grayling butterfly. Hence, his full name may be taken as meaning "dark butterfly".
•His name meaning, "dark butterfly", is a reference to his father's alter ego, Hawk Moth, and the dark butterflies (Akumas) he uses to akumatize people.
•Jokingly, Thomas Astruc said that his middle name is "Perfection."
Adrien Agreste is a teenage boy who was chosen by Master Fu to wield the Cat Miraculous and become the superhero Cat Noir. Adrien Agreste is the son of the late famous French fashion designer, Gabriel Agreste and the late former British aristocrat from the noble Graham de Vanily family and...
