Ah...ah...What a beautiful sky.— Krone to herself as she meets her death in "Chapter 23"
Krone (クローネ, Kurōne), also known as Sister Krone , was a helper in The Promised Neverland and helped run the Grace Field House orphanage with Mama Isabella. She would eventually attempt to usurp the position of "Mama", an act which would lead to her death at the hands of Isabella, Grandmother and the Demons.
Appearance
Krone possessed a large and intimidating physique, which coupled with her equally intimidating facial expressions made her seem dominant, though she outwardly often wore a bright, warm smile. She has short dreadlocks and dark skin and wears standard Sister uniform.
She showed the kids about the stitches on her chest telling them they have a microchip
in their hearts. The microchip makes it impossible to leave their farm.
Personality
Krone was an individual who fought for nothing but her own, personal, agenda. She played nice when she had to play nice, scheming and plotting continuously while trusting no one but herself. She fully realized the evil of her own actions, and how the twisted system she was brought up in made her this way, but still carried on nevertheless. Her goal was ultimately just to survive, to be on the "Eat" part of the food chain.
History
She was brought up in an "orphanage" similar to the Grace Field House and performed well enough on the tests to be recommended for Mama-training when she turned 12.
