### Type of Villian

Self-loathing Magician

**Aleister Crowley,** originally born as **Edward Alexander Crowley**, is the central antagonist of the *A Certain Magical Index* franchise and the catalyst individual to the franchise as a whole. He also served as the deuteragonist-turned-final antagonsist of *A Certain Magical Index: Zero*, the overarching antagonist of *A Certain Magical Index: Old Testament,* the secondary antagonist of *A Certain Magical Index: New Testament* and a major character in *A Certain Magical Index: Genesis Testament*. He also serves as the unseen overarching antagonist of *A Certain Scientific Railgun, A Certain Scientific Accelerator* and *A Certain Scientific Dark Matter.*

He is the Board Chairman/General Superintendent of Academy City and the de-facto ruler of the science side. He is also the archenemy of Touma Kamijou, Accelerator, and Shiage Hamazura.

## Personality

Aleister has a somewhat emotionless demeanour and presents an aura of levelheadedness. He is also known for speaking in a very cryptic tone. However, despite his visage, he has shown some expression ,like smiling during interesting events, such as when he questioned on what existence the Imagine Breaker would prove.

He is shown to be a mastermind behind many things, manipulating several coincidences for Kamijou Touma and Accelerator, key cores in his plans, to fall into, like allowing Touma to be used by Stiyl Magnus, or Accelerator forcibly being inputted with the numerical settings of the AIM diffusion fields. He has many plans running parallel and seemingly abandoning one plan in favor of another if it fails; though the act of doing so, with the apparent disbanding of one enabling the execution of another or even the original purpose of the plan benefiting from its discontinuation, could still be a facade. According to Musujime Awaki, his plans are probably beyond what anyone can think of, and in his eyes, even the planet might only be a resource for use and discarding.

Despite being the Board Chairman of Academy City, Aleister has shown to have no concern for the safety of the children or citizens living there. This shown through the establishment of the Dark Side of Academy City, a criminal underground divided into several organizations with espers or his employment of the Kihara Family, a clan of depraved scientists and resheachers

## History

Edward Alexander "Aleister" Crowley was born to two christian parents who had immense belief in god and influential positions in the town he grew up in. His childhood was a rather unhappy one, His parents refused to listen or understand him, and considered him stupid for his lack of belief. Instead of protecting or caring for the boy as a parent should, they were more focused on ensuring that he acted "proper". They sent him to a strict boarding school, believing that it would place in him the strict spirit and understanding of God's teaching they desired. When at the school, Aleister did not fit in. He was mocked, ridiculed and victimized by both his teachers and the other children at the school. Finding both the town and school terrible places, Aleister grew bitter and frustrated, scornful of the people around him who proclaimed themselves believers and righteous yet acted so foolish and disgracefully.

Due to these experiences, Aleister became extremely atheistic, growing a extreme hatred for God, as he believes that the god who created this world is incompetent since they are easily fooled and are unable to punish the liars, such as the adults responsible for his suffering, who despite their true natures appeared nice on the surface and as such held influential positions in the town, being treated like perfect role models. Eventually, Aleister deemed the bible a falsehood, as one who reads it will eventually cast aside their own thoughts and blindly believed the teachings of those who came before would only gain the disgraceful behavior exhibited by his tormentors. He decided to find the proper rules and answers which that god could not in order to make the world a better place. To that end, he sought to reclaim the true path that he considered lost due to foolish blind belief. This desire would eventually lead him down the path of magic.
