Description
Evangeline Athanasia Katherine McDowell began as a human in Europe's Hundred Years' War. Transformed into a vampire on her tenth birthday, she overcame traditional weaknesses to become a Shinso, a high daylight walker. Centuries later, she gained infamy as the legendary evil mage known as the "Dark Evangel" and "Doll Master." Her wandering existence ended when she pursued Nagi Springfield, the Thousand Master. He trapped her at Mahora Academy using anti-vampire soup and the Infernus Scholasticus curse, binding her to the school grounds and restricting her powers, leaving her physically resembling a ten-year-old. Nagi promised freedom upon her graduation, a promise voided by his disappearance. School dean Konoemon Konoe later employed her as a campus security guard.
Physically, she appears as a 130 cm (4'3") Caucasian girl with blonde hair, blue eyes, and measurements of 67-48-63, typically wearing Gothic Lolita attire. Her personality blends cruelty and intellectual detachment with occasional softer moments, enjoying tea ceremonies, Go, and Japanese scenery. She avoids most social interactions, tolerating only her designed Ministra Magi companions: the dolls Chachazero and the android Chachamaru Karakuri. Her vast age leads to frequent self-references as "old" and boredom during peaceful times.
As a True Ancestral Vampire (Shinso), she possesses Class A immortality, granting eternal youth and regeneration capable of reattaching limbs or reforming her body. She specializes in ice-based and dark magic, wielding signature spells like "Nivis Casus" (Avalanche) and "Crystallitatio Tellustris" (Frozen Earth). Her martial skill includes mastery of aikido, learned directly from creator Morihei Ueshiba around 80 years prior. She manipulates others through vampiric mind control or enchanted threads, earning the "Doll Master" title. Additional powers include flight and transformation into a bat swarm for evasion or healing. She developed the forbidden technique Magia Erebea, later taught to Negi Springfield.
Initially antagonistic towards Nagi's son Negi upon his arrival at Mahora, she sought his blood to break her curse. Her role shifted to mentorship after recognizing his potential, demanding daily blood payments for magical combat training. She observed his conflicts without direct intervention, believing adversity accelerated growth. Later, she trained Asuna Kagurazaka and orchestrated tests like the "Badge Collection game" to evaluate Negi's allies. Her mentorship included sensual gestures, such as a kiss during training at her magically concealed resort.
In the *Negima!?* anime continuity, she remained an absentee student in seat 26 of Class 2-A/3-A and maintained a rivalry with Takamichi T. Takahata over tea and ramen preparation. Her backstory as a vampire bound by Nagi's curse remained consistent, though darker elements like her bounty were omitted. She avoided direct involvement in major arcs like Chao Lingshen's festival plans.
In the sequel *UQ Holder!*, adopting the alias Yukihime, she became guardian to Touta Konoe, transforming him into a vampire after his parents' death. Their relationship deepened through time-displaced encounters in Dana's palace, where she met the present-day Touta as "Kitty," developing romantic feelings. Centuries later, she rejected his marriage proposal but privately acknowledged enduring affection. As Yukihime, she led the immortal organization UQ Holder, demonstrating sustained loyalty to her few cherished connections.
