Nagi Springfield

==Summary==
Nagi Springfield is the father of Negi Springfield and the leader of Ala Rubra. Unlike his son, Nagi is a foolhardy individual who enjoys fighting, and does not plan ahead. He is nicknamed the "Thousand Master" because he is rumored to have mastered a thousand spells. However, he dropped out of magic school due to his lack of studying and thus only knows a few spells by heart. 
Nagi and his friends fought in the Great War in Mundus Magicus when he was fifteen. After the war, he became famous for his heroic deeds and received the title of Thousand Master. Nagi disappeared in Istambul by 1994, the same year Negi was born. While everybody thought he was dead, Nagi managed to show up just in time to save Negi from a horde of demons attacking his home village in 1998. He is later revealed to be possessed by the Mage of the Beginning after defeating her in 1994, becoming her next host. He was then sealed under the World Tree on the campus of Mahora Academy in Japan. He was ultimately saved from Ialda by Negi and his friends in 2009.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:
===Lightning spells===
*Jovis Tempestas Fulguriens (雷の暴風, Ikazuchi no Boufū; Windstorm of Lightning): An attack spell which combines the forces of wind and lightning into a directed and concentrated tornado-like attack.
*Jaculatio Fulgoris (雷の投擲, Ikazuchi no Tōteki, Thrown Lightning): An attack spell which summons and shoots down electric spears. Because the projectiles released are javelins and not arrows. Each is significantly stronger than a thunder Sagitta Magica and has greater physical destructive power. They are also capable of pinning down the target.
High Ancient (上位古代語, joui kodaigo) - The term for high-level magic, with incantations spoken in Ancient Greek
*Dios Tukos (雷の斧, Ikazuchi no Fu; Axe of Lightning): An offensive spell that destroys the target with an intense electric attack. While the attack has a limited area of effect, its short incantation makes it very effective at close to medium range.
*Killipl Astrape (千の雷, Sen no Ikazuchi; Thousand Thunderbolts): The most potent lightning spell and Nagi's main attack move. It's a long-range spell that uses lightning to assail the designated target.
===Others techniques===
*Shundō (瞬動; Instant Movement): By focusing ki or mana into the feet, the practitioner can cross distances in a burst of extreme speed (enough to appear almost instantaneous). However, unlike true teleportation, the movement can be intercepted and the exit point calculated; the technique cannot be stopped once it begins. It must also be performed on some foothold or surface.
**Kokū Shundō (虚空瞬動; Void Instant Movement): Instead of using a fixed surface, the practitioner simply uses air as a foothold. As this can be performed in mid-air, movement in any direction is possible, eliminating the base weaknesses of Shundō. 
*Infernus Scholasticus: A powerful curse used on Evangeline. The curse binds her magic powers while her immortality and youth remain and physically force her to remain within the boundaries of Mahora Academy and Mahora City.
*Sagitta Magica (魔法の射手, Mahō no Shashu; Magic Archer): An attack spell which summons lower elemental spirits and fires them at the target. The properties of the arrow change based on the type of spirit being called upon, making this simple spell very versatile and valuable in many situations. A powerful mage can summon and fire more arrows at once. The power of each arrow can also be increased. In addition, due to the open arrangement of the spell incantation, the spell can be conveniently modified to work in a way most effective against the target. The arrows can also pursue an evading target. Even after activation, the arrows can be temporarily held in place as glowing spheres around the mage. The number of projectiles and the length of time they can be kept depends on the mage's power.
** Series Fulguralis (連弾・雷の矢, Rendan - Kaminari no Ya, Lightning Arrows): Electric projectiles. By varying the strength of the arrows, it can achieve a stunning effect, immobilising living targets.
