Vajarois

* Human
* Ghost

**Vajarois** (バハロワ, *Baharowa*?) was an ancient princess of the Book Kingdom who became a ghost of grief from sorrows of the loss of her friends.

## Appearance

In life, Vajarois was a girl with long pink hair and a fair complexion. She wore a white dress with a teal sash and a golden crown.

As a ghost, Vajarois is a white ghostly monster with two small arms, several brown horns on the head and back and a face that is in constant pain, with red eyes and a large round mouth. Much like other ghosts, her entire being is composed of ectoplasm, save for brown horns that originated from the Seed of Sorrow.

## Plot

### Background

    Vajarois was once a cheerful girl from a royal family around the 2nd Century BC who was blessed with good friends and had a happy life. In her depression from losing her friends from an unspecified tragedy, she ate a Seed of Sorrow — presumably the last of its kind — so she won't forget them in her last moments. By doing so, she ended up afflicted with a curse that bound her to mortal plane as a ghost corrupted from inside out by the same Seed.

For 1600 years, at midnight of the Samhain Festival, Vajarois woke up to devour the sacrifices given by Luna Nova Magical Academy and remained in slumber until the next festival in hopes to appease her restless spirit. The sacrifices were expelled unharmed soon after.

The knowledge of both the cause of her suffering and her true nature as the restless spirit of a deceased princess on the other hand, was lost yet could be found in her vestige — the still-intact half of her Seed of Sorrow's nutshell — which stored in the Luna Nova Archives and identified with a plaque. The vestige, being so ancient, contained a faerie which could reveal the truth. The fact that the school kept the vestige indicated witches who responsible in stopping her sorrow-fueled rampage along with Luna Nova witches after them made some efforts in figuring out the nature of her curse in a bid to put her back to rest to no avail, leading it becoming a cold case which gradually forgotten and Vajarois viewed as nothing more than as the academy's valuable asset as much as the vestige itself.

### TV series

#### Blue Moon

    A flashforward of Vajarois is shown to Akko when the second Word of Arcturus is revived.

#### What You Will

When Akko and her team are given the task of being the "sacrifice" during the Samhain Festival, the teachers show her a projection of how Vajarois devours the chosen teams on each holiday, to the horror of Akko and the amusement of the other students.

#### Samhain Magic

She appears in her ghost form when the midnight bells of the Samhain Festival sound. Akko, Sucy, and Lotte are chosen as the group of sacrifice for Vajarois, but instead of letting themselves devoured, they make a great fun show to make her happy in an attempt to free her from her curse, but this does not work because of the Seed of Sorrow. When Vajarois finally devours them, all three, following the advice of Ursula, managed to expel the Seed of Sorrow of her body when they are consumed and releasing her of the curse, putting an end of her seemingly eternal suffering once and for all at cost of the tradition and being disqualified. Before she disappears, Vajarois' spirit thanks the girls for releasing her with a smile and a curtsy.
