**Yamraiha** (ヤムライハ *Yamuraiha*)[note]  is the Headmistress of Magnostadt Academy and a highly skilled magician whose speciality is Water Magic. She was one of the Eight Generals of Sindria.

## Personality

Yamraiha is aligned with Type 2 "Blue" Rukh. People with an affinity for type 2 Rukh are also said to be eccentrics who peruse only what catches their interest, to the disregard of all else. They are often unaware of gestures of affection and are oblivious to subtle flirtations.

She has difficulty engaging in anything beyond her own interests and passions. This is best exemplified when she exclusively teaches type 2 spells to her student, despite the fact that he is a Red Magician.source?

She struggles to establish relationships as she tends to alienate people who do not share her interest in magic. She would rather her spend time on her research than socialize with others. However, she still craves interaction and can find herself feeling quite lonely at times.

## Appearance

During her first meeting with Sinbad, she had short neck-length blue hair and wore the mandatory uniform of Magnostadt which consisted of a black dress and witch hat. She also carried a wooden staff during the entirety of the chapter dedicated to meeting him.

In her first appearance in Magi: The labyrinth of Magic, she her blue hair was seen to have gotten longer, now ending on her waist. She has considerably big breasts and have pink shells (A Magoi Storing Item Created by her) acting as coverage. She now wears the official uniform of the eight generals with her black witch hat still on her. Gold sea shells sit beside each side of her head, which along with the pink shells on her breasts, are items that can store a considerable amount of magoi. (This is shown and stated by Yamraiha herself during her fight with Apollonius)

One noticeable change seen after her first appearance in Episode 18 was her pink staff that circled around an orb at the tip. She uses her staff as a ways of transportations, much like how witches ride their brooms.

## Trivia

* Her handwriting is large with high pen pressure.
* Yamlikha or Yamlaykha (يمليخا) is the accurate translation of her name as she is named after Yamlaykhā the Queen of Serpents from the 1001 Nights story *The Queen of the Serpents* and its child stories *The Adventures of Bulukiya* and *The Story of Janshah*.
* Ohtaka based her on the titular character of **The Little Mermaid** (in Japanese 人魚姫 *Mermaid Princess*) a Danish fairy tale written by Hans Christian Andersen (not to be confused with the Disney film of the same name).
	+ The illustration on her Bikkuri sticker depicting her a a mermaid is likely a reference to this.
