Appearance

Alaira has dark skin and hair that is red near the bottom and white up top, which she wears in an upturned hairstyle. Aside from her hair, the rest of Alaira face is noticeable for her gray eyes, blue earrings and red lipstick.

Her clothing largely consists of yellow, white, and gray tones. She wears a cape with yellow colors, wears gold accessories and her clothes have some yellow details.

Her hat is sand colored and adorned with a feather at the point. The feather fades from blue to white. A length of cloth is wrapped around the base and affixed to the front by a golden ornament.

Personality

In her few appearances, Alaira behaved as a carefree yet caring friend to Qifrey. She was worried about apprentices such as Euini and accepted to take care of the kids in the best she could.^{[citation needed]}

With this little information, it seems that Alaira is a carefree and charismatic person who cares for those around her, doing her best to help her friends, such as Qifrey, and also take care of the students, such as Tetia and Coco during the The Sincerity of the Shield when she was alone with the two apprentices during while in the Serpentback Cave.

History

Little is known about her past.

Magical Items

• Stretcher Skiff: A levitating cloth that Alaira has used as a stretcher to carry wounded or other miscellaneous things. It is made from the repurposed underside of her cloak.

Plot

Second Pentagram Test Arc

Alaira plays an important role during the second test arc. At first, she would only monitor Agott, Euini and Richeh during their atempt for the second test. However, after Iguin and Sasaran's attack at the students, she proved herself as capable by defending the apprentices, even after being transported by Sasaran far from the students.

After the test, she took Euini under her protection to avoid the Great Hall discovering that he had had forbidden magic drawn on his body.

Relationships

Euini

Alaira is Euini's current master. She took him in after failing to protect him from the Brimmed Caps, taking on a promise to keep him safe from hereon out. Both are currently together in hiding.

Trivia

• On the very last page of volume 5, there is a passage that describes her hat.
• While in the concept stage, Alaira was intended to own a second-hand shop. This concept however seems to not have stuck around for serialization, and she may perhaps do some kind of work within the Great Hall instead.
