Sasaran (ササラン, Sasaran), also known as the "Empty Cloak Witch" and the "very embodiment of forbidden magic" is a mysterious member of the Brimmed Cap Group. He uses magic to control his cloak and hat so he does not need to risk himself while doing a mission for the Brimmed Hats.

Appearance

Sasaran normally masquerades himself as a floating cloak and brimmed hat with an eye-shaped ornament on the front, giving him an ethereal appearance.

His true form is that of a slim man that has been endowed with cat-like features, giving him a monstrous feline appearance. His left eye has a ornament around it. His unusual appearance is implied to be the result of magical experimentation gone awry where his once human self-fused with the body of a pet. Iguin refers to him as "the very embodiment of forbidden magic".

Sasaran's Cloak

While unnamed and their face obstructed, the young witch seen in these panels has Sasaran's cape and the animal they are playing with looks suspiciously like his monstrous face.

Personality

Sasaran show to have a lot of hatred towards the Pointed Hat Witches because of what happened to his body. Sasaran appears to be kind of a coward, always hiding in the shadows behind his cloak, one of the motives being his transformed body. He also appears to have fear of the other brimmed hats in his group, such as Iguin and others that haven't appeared yet.

Sasaran is more offensive in fights than Iguin, using more aggressive spells while always trying to hide behind his cloak.

Plot

Sasaran attacks Alaira

Sasaran first appears talking to Iguin, in chapter 17. At that time, Sasaran still is using spells to mask what he looks like. After that, he only appears briefly in Chapter 20, just to make a full apparence in chapter 21 onwards during the chapters where the students where doing The Sincerity of the Shield, making him one of the main antagonists of the Second Pentagram Test Arc.
