Julius Monrey (ユリウス=モンレー) is the master of the Clock Tower who is also known as the mortician. He has a gloomy nature and is rarely seen out of the Clock Tower. Even though he is not a sociable person, he's good friends with Ace. Also, he was involved in the imprisonment of Elliot March and bears a grudge against him. In Clover no Kuni no Alice, he stays in the Country of Heart, but is able to visit the Country of Clover in Joker no Kuni no Alice. In Diamond and Mirror, he stays in the Train Station.
Appearance
He has long dark-blue hair that is tied up in the back. He wears a long black coat with gold-bronze designs, black pants, a dark yellow vest, a clock earring, and a clock tie. Julius is often seen wearing glasses while working and holding a wrench or a clock.
Personality
Julius is a gloomy, anti-social and a relatively composed person. Unlike most of the residents of Wonderland, he isn't trigger happy and doesn't like to get involved in anything outside of his work because he finds it too troublesome. He enjoys working by himself and likes dark and gloomy places. Sometimes, Julius gets so caught up in his work that he doesn't notice everything else that's happening around him.
Julius rarely gets angry but when he does, he's prone to swearing. An example of this happening is seen when Peter tells him that he was the one responsible for bringing Alice to the Country of Hearts. Julius hates rabbits and wishes that he could shoot them all. His hate for Elliot is stronger than his hate for Peter White as he broke the rules once before and broke out of prison.
He gets easily drunk from drinking champagne. He works to fix other people's clocks as it is he duty. He cares about Alice very much.

Trivia
- The name Julius means devoted to Jove, while Monrey means man of/from Ro.
- It seems that Julius can protect Alice in her dreams to at least some degree, and he knows things about Alice's world that others would not know.
- Before Julius was the Clockmaker, he was like Ace in that he was a roleholder without a duty. Even then he was a workaholic, often forgetting the time of day and how long it had been since they'd eaten.
- He has little interest in music, but that doesn't stop Julius from being able to play the violin to a moderate degree.
