Hmmmm... I'm not so sure about the theory of White being a D-rank Regular. The biggest reason being that it seems clear (to me at least) that all Slayers are Rankers [and Slayer candidates are Regulars] - this hasn't been confirmed but it sounds quite logical from what we know. Another reason is that White has been labelled and heavily implied to have been a powerful Ranker, not to mention I seriously doubt that someone who had gained that level of power would just stay as a D-rank Regular instead of scaling the Tower.

While I do agree with Athanos in saying that most of White's power probably comes from the vast number of souls he consumes, I do feel the need to remind everyone that there [should be] numerous Guardian contracts that apply to White (and only White - not the separate siblings or incomplete fused forms) which would also enhance White's base level of power. One of the main differences between Regulars and Rankers are the contracts that Rankers have made with the Guardians. I severely doubt the siblings made many, if any, useful contracts with any Guardians but White most certainly did.

As for how Rachel could be useful to him (and vice-versa) she possesses and controls the single-most powerful/influential device besides the Opera: Emile ! Rachel could very easily provide White with a constant supply of souls by luring and manipulating the masses using Emile. Just a thought. And as for how White could help Rachel, well he of course couldn't do anything for her directly. But, as a high-ranking member of FUG, White could certainly pull some strings to make her climb much much easier. We know there are FUG members in powerful places (Yu Han Sung, Augusgus etc.) so it would be plausible. Again, just a thought.
