**Judar** (ジュダル *Judaru*) is an ice magician and one of the four magi. He was the High Priest of Al-Thamen and the Kou Empire before switching to Hakuryuu's side in order to help him conquer Kou. Judar is not Judar's original name, but it was given to him by Al-Thamen. Only Judar and Hakuryuu know the name given to him by his birth parents as Judar doesn't want to reveal it to anyone else.

## Personality

Judar loves wars and fighting. Because he is a magi, he has never really met someone who could match his abilities. Therefore, he is itching to have a real battle with another magi who could be a challenge to him. Judar will never agree to submit to an unfair fate, and he destroys everything that pisses him off.

Judar has bad memory. He has little interest in politics or the details of things, preferring it if other people such as Hakuryuu keep track of the details for him. He is not very good at spelling properly.

Judar is good at acting and pretending, even able to trick Sinbad into feeling pity for him. He also pretended to be fine after he found out the truth about his past, although in reality the knowledge of what had occured made him very angry. Judar felt very jealous of the other magi because they had been able to live a free life, choosing a king of their own free will while Judar was picking King Vessels for Al-Thamen's cause. Judar wanted to choose a king and build a country with them, fighting until they had conquered the entire world.

Judar was very lonely during his childhood, having no people he would've considered his friends. This is why it was also difficult for him to make new friends — and his rude behaviour is not really liked by other people. Judar had an extremely spoiled upbringing because Al-Thamen's priests pandered to his wishes. Adding to his loneliness, they thought Judar was of a status too high to even have commoners' company at the dinnertable. No one in the Kou Imperial Palace really told him no, and as long as he followed Arba and Al-Thamen's wishes, he could do as he wished.

Judar insists that even the people he has friendly relations with, such as Kougyoku or later Alibaba and Aladdin, still aren't his friends. Judar is someone who, according to Alibaba, is able to think diversely and doesn't like it if other people worry over him. Judar never speaks of his inner conflicts with others, no matter how close they are to him. He prefers thinking of his problems and dealing with them on his own. He doesn't consult others or argue about them.

Shinobu Ohtaka described Judar as positive and social.

## Story

Judar was born as a magi in a small, poor Kou mountain village in the eastern plain. Soon after he was born, Al-Thamen killed his parents, burned the village down and kidnapped him. They raised him in their organization and taught him magic, taking advantage of his skills as a magi.

### Reim Empire Arc

Judar appears before Barbarossa with Falan when Barbarossa has just finished his battle against Dragul. According to Falan, rukh has become restless, and she asks what happened. Barbarossa greets the young Judar, kneeling in front of him. Judar complains that he can't sleep because the rukh is so noisy. Barbarossa says that he understands. Judar's rukh is still white in colour.

### Dark Continent Arc

When Sinbad and the others return to the Reim Empire, Serendine is waiting for them. She has a child with her who calls himself Judar. Sinbad thinks that the child is rude but while grabbing him, Judar's borg activates to protect him. Others are surprised, but Judar is amused and declares that he is a magi. Sinbad and Ja'far start pondering about it and are not very convinced that Judar is really a magi. To prove his claim, Judar touches Serendine's Metal Vessel. The djinn Zepar appears, and he recognizes Judar as a magi and bows in front of him. Sinbad and Ja'far are surprised, and Zepar explains that the djinns respect the magis deeply and obey their wishes. Zepar assures that Judar is a real magi, but as he is about to ask Judar's about his strange rukh, Judar quickly makes him return inside the Metal Vessel.

Ja'far asks why a great magi had come to them, and Judar tells that he came to his "king". It turns out that Zepar's dungeon that Serendine captured was raised by Judar. Therefore, Judar announces himself to be Serendine's magi. Even though Serendine has not yet agreed to this, Judar tries to get her to return to Parthevia. Ja'far can't believe what he's hearing and says that they can't return to Parthevia as it could cause serious problems. Judar explains that as a magi, he can sense abnormalities in the world and that there is a dark aura over Parthevia, because there is a demographic purge going on against the people who oppose the state authorities. Judar urges Serendine to go back in order to change the situation, because she is Parthevia's princess. However, Serendine won't agree to anything without Sinbad's - the group's leader's - opinion on the situation, so Judar wanted to meet Sinbad as well. He tells Serendine and Sinbad that they will get him on their side as a magi if they decide to invade Parthevia.

Sinbad says that if what Judar described is really going on in Parthevia, he cannot ignore it. On the other hand, he can't trust Judar. According to Sinbad, magis are capable of great magic, such as flying and teleportation, so he asks Judar that if he really is a magi, can't he simply teleport them to Parthevia. Judar gets angry, feeling he's made fun of, but eventually says that it's not his job to transfer them anywhere. Judar says that he doesn't need their trust, because eventually they will realize that they need his power.

Ja'far and Sinbad start to wonder who sent Judar and why, and acknowledge that they cannot dismiss the information they had just received. Sinbad says that he can use Judar, and that they should keep an eye on him. He tells Serendine to look after Judar, and the two leave the scene together.

### Parthevia Arc

When Judar hears that the others are going to Parthevia after all, he tells them that they should've done that when he said so. Ja'far says that they still don't trust Judar. Judar calls Ja'far "Freckles", and the two start squabbling. Sharrkan thinks that Judar is a bit scary as there is no way to tell what he's thinking.

Judar is communicating with Al-Thamen via black rukh. They tell Judar to do something he is not very enthusiastic about but says that as long as it's fun, he doesn't care.

Judar goes to talk to Serendine. He urges Serendine to take action instead of watching from the sidelines without doing anything. When Serendine is still hesitating, Judar decides to teach her to use her Metal Vessel. Regardless of the training, Serendine has trouble learning to use her Metal Vessel, which bores Judar. However, to Judar's satisfaction, Serendine announces that she won't give up.

### Forming of Sindria Arc

Eventually, Serendine learns how to activate her Djinn Equip, and Judar suggests that she should challenge Sinbad to a Djinn Equip Battle. Sinbad isn't too enthusiastic about this, but Judar starts teasing Sinbad of being too afraid of losing. In the end, Sinbad gives in and agrees to the battle, only to witness Zepar's powers.

Judar stands aside to witness this battle with everybody else. After Serendine made everyone else lose their consciousness with Zepar's power, Judar praises her and explains the nature of these powers. Once everyone had woken up, Judar accuses Sinbad of being a sore loser, as he denies losing to Serendine, still claiming he only participated to witness Zepar's powers.

Later, Judar and Serendine discuss with each other and mention, that no-one else will guess the true nature of Zepar's powers. Serendine hesitates if this is the correct method to take, but Judar assures her as a magi that it was. When Serendine and Sinbad end up in an argument, Judar is seen smiling behind a corner.

Falan and Judar discuss through black rukh, and Falan wants to know how Judar is doing with his King Vessel. Judar says, that Serendine is developing favorably. His interest is piqued, when he realizes that Falan is planning something.

When Falan has shown her face and talked with Sinbad, Judar takes Serendine to talk to Falan as Serendine had requested. They agree to cooperate in order to give Parthevia back to Serendine, and they decide to launch their plan during Sindria's opening ceremony.

### Sindrian War Arc

When Parthevia begins their attack against Sindria, Falan and Judar show up as well. Judar announces to be on Serendine's side as her magi.

Judar is with Sinbad and Serendine on the battle field and they plan to attack Barbarossa directly. Judar hangs on to the Baal-equipped Sinbad and says that they can use his magi powers to locate Barbarossa's metal vessel. Judar is amused that Sinbad still doesn't trust him and reminds them that thanks to his skills as a magi, Sinbad and Serendine don't have to worry about running out of magoi during the battle.

Sinbad says that he is still doubtful, because Falan and Judar work together and could control Barbarossa with Zepar's power without having to involve Sinbad. Judar denies this being true but explains that Zepar can only be used to control someone who has been forced to fall asleep with Zepar's spell first. According to Serendine, Barbarossa would never be careless enough to let this happen. Judar almost reveals that there is something more involved, but stops mid-sentence. In his thoughts, he thinks that the battle won't end so easy as Sinbad and Serendine are already in "their" grip.

After Barbarossa launches his surprise attack and casting an earthquake spell with his Extreme Magic, Sinbad says that he has to go to the Sindrian island to help the civilians. However, Judar says that there's not enough time for that, as Barbarossa is now wounded and cannot therefore move fast. They should defear the enemy leader quickly without any distractions. Sinbad agrees and they go look for Barbarossa.

Eventually they reach a carriage that is carrying Barbarossa. Sinbad hits it with Bararaq Saiqa, and Judar shows how there is nothing left of it. Serendine says that they can't be safe before they find his body, but Judar points to the charred remains of a body, asking if that's him. He can't sense Barbarossa's metal vessels either. However, suddenly a fog forms, Sinbad and Serendine's metal vessels break, and Barbarossa steps out, being supported by Memphis. The whole thing turns out to be a ruse organized by Al-Thamen, and Memphis praises Judar for his good job at tricking Sinbad and Serendine.

Barbarossa is still wounded and about to leave when Sinbad tries to go after him. Judar prevents him from doing so and announces, that he won't let the war end. Serendine asks him if he and Al-Thamen were betraying her since the beginning. Judar answers that he didn't really care and it was just what the organization had decided. Serendine announces that Judar is her enemy, to which Judar reacts with a shock.

A battle begins with Judar and Memphis versus Sinbad and Serendine. Judar still won't let Sinbad leave, but Serendine manages to let Sinbad go by hitting Memphis and Judar with her massive scorpion tail as she begins to turn into a dungeon monster. Judar makes it out of the confrontation alive, but Memphis is slain by Serendine.

### Epilogue

After the Sindrian War, Falan is deceased and her plan failed. This means that Arba's plan comes next, and although Ithnan doesn't agree to help her, she thinks it's fine because Judar has now returned to her side. She introduces Judar to the Kou Empire and announces that he will become its High Priest. She encourages Judar to find King Vessels from Kou, but when Judar points out that there is something different about Hakuyuu and Hakuren, Arba forbids him from taking them to a dungeon, saying he should pick some other people instead.

### Dungeon Arc

The lord of the city of Qishan, Jamil, had been told by his teacher since he was a child that ten years later, a magi would appear and take him to the dungeon in the city. When Aladdin appears and him and Alibaba go into the dungeon, Jamil mistakenly thinks that Aladdin is this magi his teacher talked about. When Judar gets to know that someone other than Jamil, who had been taught by Al-Thamen, had gone into the dungeon, he flies to the scene on a magic carpet with an Al-Thamen magician. He collapses the dungeon so that whoever went there couldn't get the djinn as that would be a bother. However, the collapse only manages to kill Jamil and Goltas, and Alibaba makes it out of there with the djinn in his Metal Vessel.

### Kouga Arc

Judar is mentioned by Paimon when she tells Aladdin that there is a magi is Hakuei's country. Hakuei says that she was invited to a dungeon by her country's high priest. Judar is seen at the Kou Imperial Palace, eating peaches on a roof when an Al-Thamen magician approaches him, telling him that he missed an audience with the emperor. Judar says that he doesn't like the "pig idiot" emperor, and that he preferred the previous one. The Al-Thamen magician tells him to be grateful as the emperor is actually stronger than he might look. However, Judar thinks he knows someone better as he spots Hakuryuu training in the yard. He goes to Hakuryuu who tries to push him away, telling him he is bothering his training. Judar says that if Hakuryuu wants power quickly, he should just go to a dungeon just like her sister had.

### Balbadd Arc

Judar is walking past Aladdin near the palace of Balbadd. Aladdin whispers to himself that the person who just passed him appears like a Black Sun. He wonders why there is so many people, and states to himself that if he would've known he would've brought his magic carpet. Then, Judar heads towards King's Abhmad throne room. He sees Sinbad and seems to be glad to see him, and exclaims to call him "Stupid King". Gladness which is not returned since Sinbad recognizes him as a threat. Judar introduces himself as an oracle of Kou Empire.

After Sinbad's speech, Judar appears out of nowhere and asks Sinbad what he's doing here, Sinbad shoots back with almost the same question and asks if he was sent under Abhmad's orders or from the Kou Empire's orders. He replies that he could care less about this country, and adds with a smile that Sinbad should know that all Judar truly wants is war. He proceeds to ramble about how great and mighty the Kou Empire is, before adding that he wanted to work with Sinbad because he cannot stand the emperor of Kou. Sinbad turns down the offer almost immediately, wanting nothing to do with Judar.

Judar then notices Aladdin's presence, and asks Sinbad if who is he, stating that his Rukh looks 'weird'. Sinbad then responses that Aladdin is also a Magi. Judar can't believe his eyes as he explains what a Magi is and says they're amazing beings. Judar then fakes a smile and pretends to be friendly with Aladdin. When they are about to shake hands, Judar punches Aladdin's eyes.

### Sindria Arc

After returning from Balbadd, Judar spent time thinking about what he saw through Solomon's Wisdom. When Sinbad came to the Kou Empire, Judar sat in a tree, refusing to talk to him.

### Alma Torran Arc

Judar appears at the summit when Kouen talks about him. He had been watching it from a distance, showing it to Hakuryuu. Kouen says that Gyokuen had built an impure army of Al-Thamen magicians and the magi Judar, after which Judar floats down to the scene, telling him not to group Judar with Al-Thamen.

Judar shows up stronger with a new power, expressing his disapproval at the idea that the countries present would make a cease-fire agreement. He states that Gyokuen is Arba and that that woman is not around anymore. When it becomes clear that Hakuryuu has, with Judar's help, killed Gyokuen, Judar reveals his new powers by opening his third eye and firing numerous black lightnings at the summit. He thinks that the countries should fight with each other instead of talking things out and says that he will meet the others in Kou. With those words, the leaves the scene via a teleportation magic circle.

He returns to Kou, to the throne room, where he expresses how exhausted the long jump had made him. Hakuryuu asks him if this is already too much for him, to which Judar says that when it comes range, no-one could beat him in teleportation magic. He says that he can still improve his skills so that he can make Hakuryuu into a king.

### Final Arc

Judar remained alive and unharmed

## Relationships

### Hakuryuu Ren

Judar has always liked Hakuryuu and tried to get him to become his king vessel for years, but Hakuryuu never agreed to it. Judar preferred Hakuryuu even in comparison to Emperor Koutoku. Hakuryuu didn't like Judar due to his past, as he saw Judar as Al-Thamen's puppet. Hakuryuu was still thankful to Judar for being the only person to treat him normally after the fire. After Koutoku's death Hakuryuu was left alone and finally accepted Judar's offer for help. The two teamed up in order to defeat Gyokuen, whom they both hated, and Judar chose to abandon his other king vessels for Hakuryuu. They thought that they were the only people who truly understood the hatred in each other's hearts. After Judar's apparent death, Hakuryuu comments he can cope with losing one or two of his legs, but that he never imagined that he would lose Judar.

After three years of separation, the two are reunited. Judar says that he has become satisfied with his life as wreaking havoc with Hakuryuu has been such fun. Hakuryuu wishes that they would talk about all sorts of things together.

### Arba

Arba was the one to find the newborn magi, Judar. As the leader of Al-Thamen, she was responsible for the killing of Judar's parents, and his kidnapping. Al-Thamen raised Judar and taught him magic, and when the Kou Empire had been created, Arba as Gyokuen Ren took young Judar to live in the imperial palace. Thus, Judar became the respected magi and high priest of the empire. Judar lived his childhood under the control of Al-Thamen and Arba, and Arba forced him to fall into depravity with her powers. When Judar learned about his parents and how Al-Thamen had taken advantage of him, Judar became bitter towards Arba specifically. He accused her of stealing his freedom, because he would have wanted to live normal life and couldn't forgive her. Therefore, Judar teamed up with Hakuryuu in order to kill her.

### Serendine Dikumenowlz Du Parthevia

Serendine became Judar's king vessel when she conquered Zepar, a dungeon raised by him. Serendine was initially suspicious of Judar, but ended up looking after the six year old as Sinbad had ordered her to. Judar taught Serendine to use the power of her djinn, and Serendine decided to ally herself with Judar and Falan in order to free Parthevia from Barbarossa's control. When Serendine found out that the two were actually on Barbarossa's side, Serendine declares Judar to be her enemy. This shocks him.

## Skills

Al-Thamen taught Judar magic since he was a child. He is a blue magician: a magician whose specialty is water magic, or in Judar's case, its subtype ice magic. As a magi, Judar had an unlimited amount of magoi. Judar also knows how to combine different types of magic.

### Weaknesses

Although Judar knows Life Magic, he is not very good at it. Judar has little physical strength (he loses to Kougyoku in a running match) which also weakens his magic skills when he doesn't have the infinite rukh of a magi at his disposal.

## Trivia

* Judar trained his abs because the king told him that this way he would be popular with girls
* Judar's name is likely taken from the titular character of the 1001 Nights story *Judar and His Brethren*. The story is unique in the way it's one of the rare tales that have a sad ending.
	+ Shinobu Ohtaka finds *Judar and His Brethren* to be very similar to *Aladdin*.
* Ohtaka was inspired by animals when designing Magi characters: Judar's braid is based on a scorpion's tail. This contrasts Kougyoku's butterfly inspired design.
* Ohtaka has said that she finds Judar's face to be the easiest to draw out of the main characters.
