Lina Inverse2620 fan favorites
External profile
Age: 15 (First volume; Lina directly states her age as 15); ~16 (Third volume; takes place a couple of months later); 17–18 (Thirteenth volume; takes place two years after the first volume) Height: 147 cm Lina is the primary protagonist and the only character that appears in all incarnations of Slayers. Despite her young age, Lina is a very powerful sorceress, with a great love of money, treasure (especially the magical sort) and food. In the anime and manga (but not the light novel) Lina uses overly destructive magic recklessly, often with little provocation. She is reputed to be an evil, powerful, destructive, diminutive sorceress (the evil part isn't true). Lina has an older sister, Luna, who is a powerful swordswoman. Although Lina has faced down dragons, monsters, and even Dark Lords with little fear, the mere mention of Luna's name sends her into terrified hysterics. She also suffers from a fear of slugs. Lina has many different nicknames, one of them being "Dragon Spooker," a name that she isn't too fond of. This is rumored to have appeared because of an incident in the first episode, in which the Leader of the Dragon Fangs’ pet black dragon escapes. Just when it appears that the beast is going to crush Lina (and Gourry, who was knocked out on top of her in a compromising position), it blanches in disgust and steps over her, a blush along its snout, much to her shock, and thereafter rage. However, the nickname was mentioned before the black dragon met her, thus leading to a possible earlier incident. Another nickname Lina encounters is the "Dragon Nester." This comes from a rhyme: "Little girl with little breasts, scares the dragon from its nest." This takes off from a running gag, in which characters constantly comment on the small size of Lina's breasts. She generally takes offense to these comments, and often responds with violence. This nickname only appears in the English dub but small breast jokes are a staple of the franchise.

Age: 20 Hair: Brown Eyes: Brown Height: 171 cm Weight: 61 kg Blood type: O Orphen is the main male lead. Fans claim "he comes off as a 'badass' kind of guy," because of his apparent lack of emotions, dedication to finish what he is working on as soon as possible (his eagerness to stop helping people he feels he does not have to help), and his "coldness" toward people he does not know. He is partly an anti-hero throughout the entire series. The only time his attitude changes is when the subject of Azalie is brought up. He will do anything for Azalie, as when they were younger, she had tutored him and gave him the confidence to get as far as he did in the Tower of Fangs. He and Azalie were brought to the school because it was believed that they possessed a strong amount of magical power within them. This proved correct; Orphen was a magic-prodigy. Orphen eventually becomes the greatest sorcerer in the world. Orphen keeps his feelings and the story about Azalie to himself at first but opens up later in the series. His true name is Krylancelo Finrandi, and the people from the Tower of Fangs (Hartia, Azalie, Childman, Flameheart) still refer to him like that. (Source: Wikipedia)
