Jibril Ajes is a pure-blood human magician, the Priest of Fire during her lifetime, and the mother of Brilith Ruin. She is deceased by the time the main story takes place, and all her appearances occur in flashbacks.

Appearance[]

Jibril has long, red hair like Brilith (whose color has a touch more purple in it), but Jibril's hair has a more vibrant blood-like hue. She ties her long hair into a single ponytail, which is her signature look.[1] She is typically shown wearing long black gloves, with two golden bands around her arm, a black dress, and a long dark coat with thick grayish fur around the top part. She also wears long dark-purple stockings, and a lighter purple cloth, that is fastened around her waist by a wide purple sash.

Personality[]

Not much is known about her, but she is claimed to have been a person who was kind to others, and always kept a smiling face. She is claimed to not have cared very much about her daughter, however. Her detachment from her daughter and others is at least partly due to her proficiency in silent magic.

Notes[]

  • She appears to be a role-model for her daughter Brilith, who seems to follow her in almost all of her actions, and often remembers her.
  • When naming some of the greatest magicians in history, most magicians would consider her to be among the top 5 in strength.[1]
  • She shares her surname with Praul Ajes; they are distantly related, but were not aware of that fact although they took the magic exam together.[2]
  • Jibril is the Arabic form of the name Gabriel.

Plot[]

History[]

3-007 young Jibril

Jibril mastered silent magic at a young age, and Laila Hemawati recalls asking her to teach her how to use it.[3]

Brilith fondly remembers her mother as the first person to summon a god after the N0 Cataclysm.[4] She was a priest of Atera, and was greatly respected. According to Brilith, Jibril suffered great pains that resembled her own, which were caused by keeping a god actively summoned. She had a god-level item called the Staff of Agni in her possession, which she has used to defeat a large number of suras. She had a divine affinity of over 10,000 and was capable of catching rakshasas on her own.[5] She passed away in the year N5,[6] and the cause of her early death seems to be related to the summoning of Agni, and keeping his summoned state, as well as the use of unhealthy levels of Agni's power that slowly drained away her life. During her funeral, her body was burned on a pile of wood.

Season 1[]

Chapter 2: The Queen and the Bum[]

(1) In exposition, Brilith describes how summoning magic had changed after the Cataclysm, with there suddenly being a heavy price to pay for summoning a god. Brilith's mother, Jibril, was one such example of the heavy price to pay after summoning a god, frequently vomiting up blood and later dying an early death.

(6) In the 7th month of N5, Brilith summoned a god to distinguish herself from the more accomplished, skilled, and older magicians competing ahead of her to become the next Priest or Priestess of Atera. Brilith apologizes to her mother when she thought that the summoning failed and how foolish it was of her to think she could fill the shoes of her mother.    

Chapter 4: AAA Magician[]

(4) Reflecting back, Brilith realizes that she could never have surpass her mother's test score and magical skills after watching what Asha accomplished that day they took their exams.

(5) Brilith reveals her joy to Asha over accompanying her to Eloth because that is where Natasha has been holding the Staff of Agni, an item Jibril use to own, for the day she can retrieve it after becoming an A ranked magician.

Chapter 10: The Night it Rained Fire[]

(1) In exposition, Brilith recalls the most revered magicians in the history of Willarv, listing off their various achievements, but states that she considers her mother the greatest of them all, as well as her number one role-model. Brilith then thinks back to a time long past, when her mother had instructed her to stay behind and wait for the temple magicians before heading off to face suras attacking Atera, Staff of Agni in hand. Jibril would never return, and Brilith wonders if she would have stayed in her spot if she knew that.

Brilith later mentions that, prior to the Cataclysm, the fire priest of Konchez had offered Jibril 100,000 gold for the Staff of Agni, as it was considered the strongest item available to fire magic-using magicians. Brilith had once seen her mother use it to rain meteors of fire onto the battlefield.

(7) As Brilith bleeds from the mouth whilst holding onto the fire barrier stone after a hit from Maruna's transcendental, she mentally apologizes to her mother and focuses on holding the barrier together for as long as she can.

(14) With Sagara successfully destroying the city and slaughtering its citizens, Brilith asks her mother what she would do if she was low in vigor and hopelessly outmatched. Brilith suddenly thinks of using bhavati agni against Sagara.

(20) Brilith lists out the three things a Priest needs to be successful: Ability, effort, and luck. She comments that while her mother had all three, she on the other hand relies purely on luck.

Chapter 11: The Power of the Name[]

(1) Assuming that the Staff of Agni is gone, Brilith is disappointed that she doesn't get the chance to master it, and especially more so when it's a keepsake from her mother.

Season 2[]

Chapter 30: Falling Petals[]

(6) While Saha is discussing Asha's incredibly high divine affinity that was previously recorded as far lower, he mentions Jibril as an example of someone with a similar case; her actual divine affinity was over 10,000, but was recorded as a far lesser number. As the crowd discusses this revelation, one brings up how Jibril was even able to kill rakshasas on her own.

Season 3[]

Chapter 36: Another Beginning[]

(2) When Brilith tells Laila how much she envies her talent in silent magic, Laila thinks back to when she was younger, and Laila had excitedly asked Jibril how to use silent magic. She then tells Brilith that Jibril would have been saddened by Brilith's words, as once you use silent magic, you can no longer return to who you once were.

Chapter 38: Devastation[]

(2) Brilith observes a portrait of her mother and her father, Talith, near a stairwell in the Temple of Fire. Natasha Ross notes that it is probably the only photo of the two together. Brilith thinks back to when she was younger, and overheard gossip about her mother hardly ever visiting her husband and daughter, instead devoting most of her time to Agni. As the group further talk about this, one of them notes that mortal marriages only last as long as both partners are alive, but gods are present in the afterlife. The present-day Brilith asks Natasha to take the photo, as she no longer wishes to see it. Natasha assures her that she will keep it in her own house anyway, just in case.

Chapter 39: The Value of a Life[]

(7) It is noted that Jibril was the only known person who was able to use hoti agni with silent magic.

(8) Laila notes that Brilith's mother, Jibril, was her friend, but silent magic had such an adverse effect on Jibril that Jibril herself wished that she could return to a time before she had learned silent magic, and hoped Brilith would never use it. Chandra mentions that Jibril's last remaining memory after death was her daughter, hinting that he had met Jibril in the afterlife. Laila is hopeful that she made it to heaven/paradise, but Chandra suggests otherwise before disappearing.

Chapter 40: Twisted Bird[]

(7) Agni states that ever since Visnu's disappearance, none of the futures Agni had ever seen via insight had ever changed, no matter how much he tries to prevent certain bad events from happening. He thinks back to an event in which Jibril is standing over a dead man's burning body.
