In Order of Appearance. **SPOILERS!!**.
Purple

Prof Lina Inverse
- [Manager of the Department of Naturall Science]
Seiyuu:
Megumi Hayashibara (Lime/Ranma/Rei/Pai/Ai/Achika)
Lisa Ortiz (Deed-lit?)
Lina Inverse is a bandit-killer, sorceress,
sword fighter, and dora-mata..or dragon spooker. She has long red hair
and wears a black headband. She wears a long black and red cap which has
jewels on the sides.(they are highly explosive) She is supposingly around
14-16 in Slayers, NEXT, and TRY. Usually, she is traveling with a companion
or companions. She is extremely short (about 5 feet?) and undergrown...she's
EXTREMELY touchy about it. She specializes in Black Magic but has a few
White spells handy. Also, Lina has a sister, Luna Inverse who doesn't make
much of an appearance in the episodes, but she sent a letter to Lina in
Slayers Try. However, Lina seems *really* afraid of her sister.
Prof Gourry Gabriev - [Manager of the Department
of History]
Seiyuu:
Matsumoto Yasunori (Dick Saucer/V. Darn/Jacky Bryant)
Eric Stuart
Gourry Gabviev is skilled sword fighter. However,
he does not prize himself on his intelligence. (I always a wonder why he
bothers to contribute to the conversation..) He wields the "Hikari no Ken"
or the "Light Sword". It was once used to slay the legendary beat Zanafar.
In the beginning of the series, Gourry doesn't use his Light Sword much,
but gradually he starts using regularly. I think he's around 21 years old.
Gourry is also responsible for making the most of Lina's height, weight,
size, and physical self.
Zelgadis Greywers/Graywords - [Manager of
the Department of Engineering]
Seiyuu:
Hikaru Midorikawa (Heero/Tamahome/Faust/Piccolo)
Daniel Cronin
Zelgadis Greywers is 1/3 golem, 1/3 demon, and
1/3 human. He is first introduced as a villian, but he soon becomes an
ally and companion (I think he was forced ^_-) of Lina. He specializes
in Shamist Magic, and is pretty good with a sword. His body is hard as
rock..and I bet his hair isn't much different. His constantly searching
a cure for his body, since he used to be a human. His grandfather/father,
Rezo, the Red Priest changed from human..to what he is now. I think Zel's
about 18..but I'm not that sure.^^; He wears a ivory-colored cape and outfit.
Also, it seems all of the magic-users wear capes. I guess this is what
Lina meant when she asked Gourry that he should have been able to tell
that she was a sorceress by her outfit.
Akahoshi Rezo/Rezo, the Red Priest - [Manager
of the Department of Medicine]
Seiyuu:
Koyasu Takehito (Hotohori/Zechs/Kircheis/Yoshi)
Charles Rolfe
Rezo is probably very old since he was Zelgadis'
grandfather and father. He's very powerful and goes around the world curing
and helping others. However, he is blind because his eyes seal Shabranigdo,
the Monster Lord. Rezo doesn't know this though and tries very hard to
cure his eyes. His hair looks like Zelgadis' (they are relatives, after
all) and he holds a staff.
Zolf aka "Mummy Man" - [Assistant of the DoE
Manager]
Seiyuu:
Hirano Masato( )
Stan Hart
Zolf has many aliases..made by Lina.."Mummy
Man" which was made at him before she knew his name because he was in bandages
since Lina accidently blew him up with her spell, "Flare Arrow". Lina also
calls him "Third-rate wizard" because once she tricked him by casting a
harmless light spell and made him think that is was a Fireball spell. Zolf
is introduced as Lina's enemy and Zelgadis' subordinate. Zolf soon finds
out that Zelgadis freed Lina, the person they were supposed to capture.
However, Zolf's loyalty is not to Rezo, Zelgadis' master, but to Zelgadis.
So, he teams up with Lina.
Rodimus - [Assistant to the DoE Manager]
Seiyuu:
Nagashima Yuuichi( )
Junior Ringenbach
Rodimus is a good fighter. He used to be Lina's
enemy, but like Zolf, he became part of Lina's team due to his loyalty
for Zelgadis. Rodimus isn't exactly young, but what he loses in age, he
gains in experience.
Dilgear - [Assistant to the DoM Manager]
Seiyuu:
Kakegawa Hirohoko( )
Jimmy Zoppi
Dilgear is 1/3 man, 1/3 werewolf, and 1/3 troll.
He first appears in the story as Zelgadis' ally and subordinate. However,
when Zelgadis aids Lina in her escape and fries Noonsa, Dilgear's friend,
Dilgear goes all-out to destroy Zelgadis and capture Lina's orihalcon statue.
Dilgear often underestimates his enemies and makes elaborate entrances.
Since Dilgear is 1/3 troll, he can easily heal wounds. Dilgear has the
head and body of a wolf, walks like a man, yet doesn't have any visible
traits of troll blood. (maybe that could explain his dumb behavior..^^)
Noonsa - [Aquatic Science 101]
Seiyuu:
Shioya Kouzou( )
Noonsa, the handsomest fish(?) in his tribe
is half-man, half-fish. Though I wouldn't trust the "handsomest" part of
this title. He is introduced into the story as a torture method for Lina..he
kisses her..(eww..) Later, he gets turned into food for his allies, after
Zelgadis casts Mono Bolt? (at least I think that was it) at him and fries
him.
Shabranigdo - [Physical Science 201 B]
Seiyuu:
Gouri Daisuke( )
Roger Kay
The Lord of the Monsters, he is released by
Rezo when Rezo finally is able to get the orihalcon statue from Lina. He
was sealed in Rezo's closed eyes. However, when he is released, he demands
to take over the world and gives Lina and her team a choice, join him or
die. They run away instead, to face him when their thoughts are clearer
and their strength restored. Also, Shabranigdo's awakening seemed to also
effect trolls and other monsters.
Prince Phillonel/Phil Saillune - [Manager
of the Department of Law]
Seiyuu:
Anzai Masahiro( )
Matt Black
Phil is the Prince of Seiryoon. He has a mustache
and is very intent on keeping justice in his kingdom..even if it involves
arresting his friends. However, Lina and Shiffeil always complain about
how Phil doesn't *look* like a Prince because princes are supposed to be
young and handsome men with blond hair who ride white horses. Phil, doesn't
have..well...he rides a white horse. He is also very protective of his
daughter, Amelia/Ameria. Phil is probably around 35.
Amelia/Ameria Wil Tesla Saillune - [Assistant
Manager of the Department of Law]
Seiyuu:
Suzuki Masami(ChaCha/Kawai Yuko)
Joani Baker
Amelia is also intent on keeping justice everywhere.
She often likes to jump on trees and high places and say her signature
line which usually involves the words 'punish' and 'justice'. Then, she
falls flat on her face, or onto someone. Amelia is also extremely short
and around 13-15. She specializes in White magic (but often fouls up).
She isn't a good person to rely on in a bad situation. She'd usually go
screaming, get scared and imediately start casting spells all over the
place (but at least she isn't as bad as Lina). Amelia has black hair which
looks kind of like Zelgadis', but sticks up a lot more.
Zangurus/Zangulus - [Manager of the Department
of Business]
Seiyuu:
Shimada Bin( )
Liam Omalley
Zangurus is a incredibly strong fighter who
is obsessed (not in a terribly bad way) with fighting Gourry. He is hired
by Ellis to go and capture Lina. He posts wanted posters all over cities
so that he may capture Lina with his wizard friend Vrugumu but he has a
jewel in the middle of his forehead and also wears a hood/cap to cover
his bald sopt on top of his head. **SPOILER FOR NEXT** Also, he comes back
in NEXT during the last few episodes to offer his skills and kick back
a few of Gourry's lost senses. He and Martina have an interesting meeting.
Vrugumu/Vruumagun - [Assistant Manager of
the DoB]
Seiyuu:
??
???
Vruugumu is a waizard who is sent by Ellis/Copii
Rezo to take and capture Lina and her group. At a point in time he does,
but she escapes. He comes back, however, to capture her. He has a jewel
on his forehead and wears dark blue? robes AND he's bald. He's also a friend
of Zangurus. Well, rather, he accompanies Zangurus, don't know baout being
his friend...
Shiffiel/Sylphiel - [Assistant to the Manager
of the DoH]
Seiyuu:
Touma Yumi (Urd/Yui/Deed-lit/Tokimi)
???
Shiffiel has a long black hair and is a priestess.
She specializes in white magic. (but like Amelia, she fouls up a lot) She
appears in the story when Rezo revives. Her kingdom is destroyed by Rezo
and having no where to go, she goes with Lina and her companions to destroy
Rezo and Ellis. She and Gourry were childhood friends and she still has
a crush on him.
Ellis/Eris - [Assistant Manager of the Department
of Medicine]
Seiyuu:
Ishikawa Etsuko( )
Ellis is the apprentice of Rezo and revives
him in the latter part of Slayers. She also wants revenge on Lina because
she killed Rezo and Zelgadis betrayed him. She has black hair which looks
a little like Rezo's.
Kopii Rezo/Copy Rezo - [New Manager of the
Department of Medicine]
Seiyuu:
Same as Rezo
Same as Rezo
Kopii Rezo was made my Ellis. he destroys Shilfiel's
castle and home. He is also the last enemy Lina-tachi encounter in the
original series. There's not much about him, except he wears white robes..he's
pretty much like a more demeted Rezo and....well, there's ntohing else
to say, his name says all.
