That's right, [[Mahou Sensei Negima]] is so [[Loads and Loads of Characters|overstuffed]] that it broke the folder system. [[Serial Escalation|Again.]] And it's ''still'' growing. So we decided to split the page. Again. This page is for everyone who's a member of Ala Rubra or was a close ally. Feel free to munch on some chips as you read.

Negi's [[Disappeared Dad]], the epitome of the [[Idiot Hero]], and quite possibly the most powerful combat mage ever to live. Unlike his son, he is straight forward, child-like, laid back and disrespectful. He hates respectful titles and prefers to be called by his name without honorifics and such. He has a strong affinity for lightning and has mastered the element's strongest spells. Though his skill in battle is beyond question, he actually isn't all that good at remembering his magic, and often has to read his spell incantations off of a notebook.

An extremely powerful warrior who's every bit as invincible as Nagi (the one time we saw them fight, it was a draw). He is a very laid-back and seemingly carefree person, loving nothing more in life than cute girls and powerful opponents. He primarily works as a mercenary, charging hilariously overpriced fees for his help, but ended up joining the Ala Rubra and fighting alongside them to save the world.

Though he can use magic, it really isn't his style; he prefers to use swords, fists, and [[Ki Attacks]]. His decades of experience in battle leave him with few to no weaknesses as a fighter, a fact he tries to hide with his goofy attitude and lack of (apparent) strategy.

A powerful mage who is proficient with both [[Gravity Master|gravity]] and [[Healing Hands|healing]] magic in addition to his being a skilled unarmed combatant. At some point, he becomes a Minister Magi to Nagi and is revealed to have several more contracts in the past, all of which are dead. The fact that his pactio with Nagi remains active serves as a proof that the Thousand Master is indeed still alive, though Albireo himself doesn't know where he is.

He is currently living underneath Library Island at Mahora.
Albireo visibly takes delight in tormenting and playing mindgames with Evangeline and is labeled as one of the two of the vampire's natural enemies, the other being Nagi. He's even bold enough to call the Dark Evangel 'Kitty'. His actual age is unknown, but he himself alludes to the fact that he is [[Older Than They Look|Older Than He Looks]]. He is currently living underneath Library Island at Mahora.

Latest revision as of 02:56, 10 December 2023


That's right, Mahou Sensei Negima is so overstuffed that it broke the folder system. Again. And it's still growing. So we decided to split the page. Again. This page is for everyone who's a member of Ala Rubra or was a close ally. Feel free to munch on some chips as you read.

This page is full of spoilers, naturally. You have been warned.


Nagi Springfield

The Thousand Master

Negi's Disappeared Dad, the epitome of the Idiot Hero, and quite possibly the most powerful combat mage ever to live. Unlike his son, he is straight forward, child-like, laid back and disrespectful. He hates respectful titles and prefers to be called by his name without honorifics and such. He has a strong affinity for lightning and has mastered the element's strongest spells. Though his skill in battle is beyond question, he actually isn't all that good at remembering his magic, and often has to read his spell incantations off of a notebook.

= Voiced by: Takehito Koyasu (Negima!), Miyuki Sawashiro (Negima?!) (Japanese), Troy Baker (Negima!), J. Michael Tatum (Negima?!) (English) =

Why the hell are you always that popular with everyone!?


Arika

Princess Arika Anarkhia Entheofushia of Vespertatia

Queen of Calamity

The Princess (and later Queen) of the kingdom of Ostia and one of Ala Rubra's allies during the war. At the war's end, she was instrumental in preventing the destruction of the Magic World, but at the cost of the destruction of her kingdom. Despite making every effort to evacuate as many as possible, she was falsely accused of genocide and nearly executed for it before being saved by Ala Rubra. Afterwards, she hooked up with Nagi, and was eventually revealed to be Negi's mother. Her current status and whereabouts are unknown. And unfortunately, never will be.


= Voiced by: Megumi Hayashibara (Only in the Ala Rubra Drama CD.) =


Jack Rakan

Jacobus 'Jack' Rakan

The Thousand Blades

An extremely powerful warrior who's every bit as invincible as Nagi (the one time we saw them fight, it was a draw). He is a very laid-back and seemingly carefree person, loving nothing more in life than cute girls and powerful opponents. He primarily works as a mercenary, charging hilariously overpriced fees for his help, but ended up joining the Ala Rubra and fighting alongside them to save the world.

Though he can use magic, it really isn't his style; he prefers to use swords, fists, and Ki Attacks. His decades of experience in battle leave him with few to no weaknesses as a fighter, a fact he tries to hide with his goofy attitude and lack of (apparent) strategy.

In keeping with Kurt Godel, his name may be a reference to Jacques Lacan, psychoanalyst and philosopher. The two names would be identical in katakana.

Chamo: This isn't physically possible...
Rakan: Make up for it with guts.

Heh. "Illusions"? "Puppets"? Heheh, screw that crap!!

"And, well, a whole bunch of things happened after that--before we knew it, we all became friends. And then, well...a whole buncha stuff happened after that. The war ended, and here we are now...and, uh...the end."


Albireo Imma

A powerful mage who is proficient with both gravity and healing magic in addition to his being a skilled unarmed combatant. At some point, he becomes a Minister Magi to Nagi and is revealed to have several more contracts in the past, all of which are dead. The fact that his pactio with Nagi remains active serves as a proof that the Thousand Master is indeed still alive, though Albireo himself doesn't know where he is.

Albireo visibly takes delight in tormenting and playing mindgames with Evangeline and is labeled as one of the two of the vampire's natural enemies, the other being Nagi. He's even bold enough to call the Dark Evangel 'Kitty'. His actual age is unknown, but he himself alludes to the fact that he is Older Than He Looks. He is currently living underneath Library Island at Mahora.

Konoe Eishun

Konoe Eishun

Formerly Aoyama Eishun

A master of the Shinmeiryuu style, Eishun is currently head of the Kansai Magic Association. He is also Konoka's father. Before marrying into Konoe family was part of Aoyama clan (relation to Motoko and Tsuruko is unknown).

Zect Filius

A calm, collected and skilled warrior excelling in unarmed combat and counter magic. Nagi addresses Zect as "Oshisou", which means the same as "sensei" (i.e. teacher, master in the master/journeyman sense), but is more old-fashioned.
