Meng) who can keep her moderately sane.

CHARACTERS |
Alchemist
Armand
J. Rimmour, BSc
First Appearance: Slayers FOREVER
Episode 1
Writer(s): Jia ri Meng
All those fans of
British television have probably already guessed
that "The Honourable Brother Rimmour" is based
off of the character "Rimmer" from the Sci-Fi
series, "Red Dwarf." We plucked the stuffy
hologram from his mining ship and dropkicked
him into the Slayers universe, and he's adapted
quite well, in fact. Brother Rimmour (very much
alive) is a conniving, cowardly, sniveling
joke-of-an authority figure, who gets swept up
into one of Lina's wacky adventures. His sole purpose is to complain
about everything and to insult
everyone, thus making him thoroughly unlikable.
We'll suffice to say that we will get to see
Rimmour at his charming best...and we all can
guess how the others will take it.

Amelia
wil Tesla Saillune
First Appearance: Slayers Etc,
Episode 11
Writer(s): Jia ri Meng
Amelia is the
Justice-crazed Princess of Seylunne. While her
unquenchable thirst for righteousness and chirpy
optimism can make her seem kind of annoying,
Amelia's heart of gold and die-hard tenacity
have made her a special member of the crew, though she still refers to
them as "Mr." And "Miss" respectively. She enjoys raywinging to high
places and shouting moralities to the unjust,
which confuses them long enough for Lina to
blast their asses. She looks on Gourry as her big brother, and her
appetite can almost compete with the "Dynamic Duo" of Lina and Gourry.
Amelia also
seems to understand Lina's connection to Gourry
better than Lina herself! Maybe it's her
romantic ideals, but she strives for the cause of true love...and even
has one of her own. Amelia
openly dotes on the moody Mr. Zelgadis, having a
deep affection for the tender side that he
rarely shows; she tends to bring out his most
"human" side. However, whether her feelings are
reciprocated or not is only implied. We do know
that Zelgadis does care very much for her, but
its anyone's guess in what way. (But I have my ideas! ^.^)

"Ashura" Kayin Magnus
First Appearance:
(yet to appear in
FOREVER, but readup on him in Slayers VELVET)
Writer(s): Ashura-Kun
"Ashura", as
Kayin is more commonly known, is a mysterious chimera who with many
strengths: magic, combat, and swordcrafting. Lina is his prey,

"Bunny-chan"
Shin-no-Tenshi Lightsphere (aka "The Angel of
Death" or "Death's Daughter")
First Appearance: Slayers FOREVER,
Episode 5
Writer(s): A-chan
Bunny is about
5'6" tall with long blood-red hair reaching down
to her waist. Petite in size (but thankfully
not in bust!) she does not have the "feminine" demeanor that most girls
have. Her eyes match
the color of her hair, but with a slightly darker look (like dried
blood). She had a scar tracing from an inch
from her right eye to the middle of her cheek. Her attire changes
during different "missions".
While often appearing bubbly or energetic,
Bunny can change into her more serious and deadly persona in a blink of
an eye. She wields chaotic magic like a sword, both with agility
and grace, knowing when it is best to use them
and when best not. Her name "Shin-no-Tenshi" is
known throughout the Lower Lands and Outer Kingdoms for being the only
human to master
chaotic magic, which calls power straight from
Death himself.

Elmax
Solkuzo
First Appearance: Slayers FOREVER,
Episode 7
Writer(s): Jia ri Meng
Little is known about
our mysterious Cabby. He was hired by Guy to
drive the gang across the continent in his cozy
caravan (lets see how much of it is left at the
end of the story). Elmax claims to be a
clairvoyant practitioner of "old magic," being
familiar in crafts like homeopathy, divining, crystallomancy. He also
carries around several old books, a twig broom,
and an old trunk that is perpetually locked. While he does seem to be a
bit of a klutz,
Elmax is always trying to be serious, often failing. He tends to come
in at the wrong times and just be victim to bad
luck. However, whether it's his psychic
tendencies or just intuition, he gets several
premonitions that may come in useful later...
Let's hope he can survive that long.

Filia
ul Copt
First Appearance: Slayers TRY, Episode
1
Writer(s): Moonhawk
The one and only gold
dragon priestess, Filia ul Copt, is one of the
few sane ( well, maybe one of the less insane)
characters of Slayers. She is willing to fight
for what she feels is right, no matter what
everyone else thinks. Although sometimes
condescending and stubborn, Filia always tries her best to help her
friends when they are in need. However, she can be rather
temperamental and she hates all Mazoku (especially Xellos) with a
passion.

Friar Mikshann
First Appearance: Slayers FOREVER,
Episode 1
Writer(s): White Knight
The
fat friar in charge of the Temple of
Restoration, Mikshann's role in this saga isn't played out yet. His
hunger for power grows beneath his well-trimmed beard
and bowl full of jelly.

Galien
Darkebrooke
First Appearance: Slayers FOREVER,
Episode 5
Writer(s): A-chan, Paper
Tiger
A confirmation of
nature's cruel sense of humor, Galien is a
sorcery prodigy that will most likely die before
he can become acknowledged. He has become
obsessed with the pursuit of evading time's
erasing abilities, and will not hesitate to use
his powers or keen intellect to reach his goal.
His plans somehow involve Lina Inverse, the only other being he seems
to respect. If he has
any feelings for his companion and accomplice
"Bunny-chan" Lightsphere, they are just among the many emotions that
Galien refuses to reveal.

Gourry
Gabriev,
"The Blue Thunder"
First Appearance: Slayers Etc, Episode
1
Writer(s): Paper Tiger
Everyone's favorite
blonde, bronzed, and bubble-brained bodyguard.
While he is not the brightest crayon in the box
(nor the sharpest), he has incredible battle
sense and a default sense of chivalry. Though
many times he has showed mixed feelings for
Lina, it seems he will never leave her side.
Continuing to wield the legendary Sword of
Light, Gourry has proven himself time and again
as the equal to any sorcerer.
|
Guy
Dualte
First Appearance: Slayers FOREVER,
Episode 5
Writer(s): Jia ri Meng
Guy is a completely
original character. He is a two-headed dragon
trapped in a single body; thus he can be divided
into two very different sides. One side is the
sensitive side, always attune to emotions and
impulses (the right brain, so to speak.)
However, while sweet, this side is also laced
with testosterone and is victim of a very short temper and
impatience...and a love of
violence. His other side is the calm rational
side, the one that stops his from doing
something stupid. It's also his darker scheming
side, the kind that would rather plot revenge
than punch a face in. While this is also his
elegant, charming side, he often comes off as cold or indifferent. Both
sides are very much in love with Filia, but
neither can bring themselves to say so, knowing
that the other side would get jealous. For
while Guy is one body, he is two very separate people. His motive is to
find a way to divide
his body for good, AND to escape the wrath of
Xellos, who has been chasing him for some time!

Kera
Yurion
First Appearance: (yet to appear in
FOREVER, but readup on her in Slayers BEYOND)
Writer(s):
Moonhawk
Hot
tempered and extremely impatient. If you get on
her wrong side, it's best to go into hiding and
never come out. She may not show her animosity
all the time, but that may not mean she doesn't
have any. Petite for a 17 year old, she used to have ankle-length brown
hair until a certain
incident. After which, she cut most of her hair
to shoulder-length, leaving a tail which she
braided. Has clear, blue-green eyes that would
be beautiful if she wasn't using them to glare at people all the
time.

Kia, "Wolf-Girl"
First Appearance: (yet to appear in
FOREVER, but read her preview in Sneak Peeks)
Writer(s):
Cait
Sith
Kia
is very kind hearted and cheerfull. She enjoys
lifting people's spirit and will often do so
till she drops. She avoids fights whenever she
can (which she usually can't. She's like a
magnet...) and if faced with an enemy, she'll change into a small
whilte wolf cub and subsequently glomped by a
little kid that seemingly comes from nowhere.
Kia wears her knee-length silver hair in a long
braid, has blue eyes, and is almost always
smiling. Coincidentily, she wears a forest
green version of Lina's outfit (small world).
Around her left wrist is the mysterious Dragon
Armlet, which is gold and has a dragon engraved on it.

Kojiro
is Kia's older brother. He is a greedy and cold
man who cares for no one but himself and his
master, Dynast Grauscherra. Whenever Kia and
Kojiro are even placed together in the same
room, all heck breaks loose! He's a merciless fighter and will kill
anything that gets in his way without second
thought, including his "beloved" sister. Kojiro has short, spiked
silver hair and deep
blue eyes. He is draped in black clothing with
a crimson cape and a silver sword.

Writer(s):
Paper
Tiger
Proving once again
that he is smarter and more powerful than death,
the godlike human known as Rezo continues his
quest for World Domination. While technically
Rezo's copy, Proxii Rezo considers himself
Rezo's equal and successor in every way. He
has, however, chosen someone else as heir to
the Rezo mantle: the human known as Zelgadis Graywords!

Xellos

First Appearance: Slayers NEXT, Episode
2
Writer(s):
Jia ri
Meng
Xellos is the Mazoku
General/Priest of Zellas Metallium (also
referred to as "Lord Beastmaster".) One of the
most despicable creatures of evil, he solely lives to fulfill the
will of his dark master...and get a few laughs
in the meantime. However, we usually see him as
a wisecracking genki who likes to travel with
Lina and her friends. He has saved our friends
from many a pinch, and we can all agree that he
does have a certain fondness for the rag-tag
crew. He likes to involve Lina in most of his assignments, knowing how
powerful Lina can be.
He also likes to exploit the gang's weaknesses
to accomplish his means, and for his own
amusement! Xellos also seems to always know what's going on, leaving
his companions in the dark, replying "Sore wa himitsu desu!" While he
makes
a rather undependable friend, he makes a frightening opponent...Lets
hope Lina ends up
on his side again!

Zelgadis
Graywords, a.k.a. "Our" Zelgadis
First Appearance: Slayers Etc, Episode
3
Writer(s):
White
Knight, Ashura-Kun
A reoccurring character
in the Slayers TV series, Zelgadis Graywords unwittingly
traded in his beauty and humanity in for
bestial power. He became a chimera, a creature with mixed blood. As
time progressed, however,
our tragic hero abandoned the pursuit of power
in hopes of finding a cure to his appearance,
(bumping himself consistently into Lina and the
others.) Zelgadis has displayed a fluency of Shamanist magic, excelled
swordplay, and a vast
array of other skills. While his primary
approach to most matters is aggressive, he is
very versatile and adaptable. Only time will
tell how he reacts to the other Zelgadises...
|
Zelgadis
Graywords, a.k.a. Not-Zelgadis, a.k.a. "Blue-y"
First Appearance: Slayers FOREVER,
Episode 1
Writer(s):
White
Knight, Ashura-Kun
Rezo the Red Priest
has already shown his mastery of the both
Chimera magic and of Copy techniques. In the
character dubbed Not-Zelgadis (namely because he
only looks like him,) Rezo has used both
abilities together. This Copy of Zelgadis has
been turned into a near one-hundred percent
chimera, with little remaining of Zelgadis’s
blood. The overload of demonic and golemous
factors within him makes him nearly invulnerable, but causes his
humanity to slowly wane. Not-Zelgadis has seemingly turned against his
creator, though, and is
both aggressive and highly unpredictable.
|
Zelgadis
"Hzel" Graywords(?), a.k.a the "Real" Zelgadis,
a.k.a. Human Zelgadis
First Appearance: Slayers FOREVER,
Episode 3
Writer(s):
White
Knight, Ashura-Kun
Not much is known
about this character, apart from him looking,
sounding, and to some degree, acting like our
Zelgadis. The only difference to the two is that
this new encounter feels neither the curse nor
the boon of chimeric blood. While the
Human-Zel could simply be a Copy made by Rezo,
who’s to say that he’s not the original? If our
Zelgadis had never been disfigured by Rezo,
would he still have turned against him? The
non-chimeric human known as Zelgadis stands by
Rezo’s side, and has learned powerful magic by
doing so. Whether he is subservient to his
grandfather or merely shares his goal has yet to
be seen. In a baffling example of good sportsmanship, he has
allowed Lina to nickname him 'Hzel'.
