The **Royal Magister** is a dragon as well as the ruler of Shang Tu. He is also the the narrator in the intro to Freedom Planet. Most of his past in currently unknown.

In Freedom Planet, he reaches out to Lilac and her friends in order to ease tensions between Shang Tu and Shang Mu and get back the Kingdom Stone. When Neera Li tells him that she doesn't trust the team based on Lilac and Carol's past with the Red Scarves, and the Magister orders them to be imprisoned. He eventually learns that he was wrong in his initial assumption of their intentions, and helps to defeat Brevon and save the Kingdom Stone.

## Appearance

Most of the Magister's physical appearance is not known due to his outfit obscuring his entire body, but he has red eyes.

He wears headwear with a red jewel in the middle that covers his face in shadows. He wears blue and yellow robes that drape across his entire body and down to the floor.

## Personality

The Magister is shown to be a peacemaker when he is involved in conflicts. When Zao steals the Kingdom Stone, the Magister sends Lilac and her friends to Shang Mu in order to negotiate an agreement between the two kingdoms that would divide the Stone's energy between them. Although, he is always skeptical of the other kingdoms, he has shown his willingness to work with them on serious issues.

## Relationships

### Neera Li and General Gong

The Magister puts a lot of trust in Neera and Gong. When Neera alerts him of Team Lilac possibly scamming them of the Kingdom Stone, he immediately trusts her instincts and imprisons them. Despite Neera and Gong not always succeeding at their jobs (such as Gong failing to stop Zao from taking the Kingdom Stone and Neera giving him misinformation about Team Lilac's intentions), he still trusts them to enforce his will to others across Avalice.

### Mayor Zao

Although the Magister is willing to work with Zao and maintains good relations with Shang Mu, he appears to have a low opinion of Zao personally. He describes him as a buffoon to General Gong.

Tensions are growing, and I fear that war my be inevitable."* -to himself, acting as the narrator for Freedom Planet's prologue

*"Don't be so hard on yourself General. I would've been just as skeptical."* -to General Gong after he claims to have failed him
