Evangeline Athanasia Katherine McDowell, known by many titles like Advent of Evil, Apostle of Calamity, Dark Evangel, Doll Master, Gospel of Darkness, Maga Nosferatu, Queen of the Night, The Girl Queen of Darkness, Visitation of Woe, The Disciple of Dark Tones, Evil Sorceress, Eva-chan, and Yukihime, carries a centuries-spanning past. Born during the Hundred Years' War, likely in Scotland or Ireland, she lived as a lord's ward in a European castle. On her tenth birthday, sorcery transformed her into a Shinso or True Blood Vampire, revealing she had unknowingly fed on a castle resident during the change. Forced to flee, she initially suffered from standard vampiric sunlight weakness but gradually conquered it. She honed formidable magical abilities for revenge, eventually killing her creator, only to discover the Mage of the Beginning orchestrated her transformation for immortality experiments. Her inability to age forced a nomadic existence, sometimes using magic to disguise herself as an adult. She endured persecution, including surviving being burned at the stake. Centuries later, the legendary mage Nagi Springfield saved her, igniting intense feelings that led her to pursue him relentlessly. Nagi eventually trapped her using "anti-vampire soup" (garlic and leeks) and inflicted the Infernus Scholasticus curse, binding her to Mahora Academy's grounds and restricting her powers. He intended her to "live in the light," promising freedom upon graduation, but his disappearance five years later left her bound indefinitely. The academy's dean, Konoemon Konoe, employed her as a security guard. Appearing physically as a 130 cm tall, 59.3 kg blonde-haired, blue-eyed ten-year-old Caucasian girl, she enrolled as student number 26 in Class 2/3-A at Mahora Girls' Junior High. She habitually references her 600+ year age. She participates in the Go Club and Tea Ceremony Club, appreciating Japanese scenery and tea prepared by her companion Chachamaru, while disliking garlic and classroom activities. Her personality blends cold, devilish tendencies—often making sinister remarks—with rarely shown kindness rooted in her human past. She reacts angrily to comments about her height or youth and exhibits occasional boredom during peaceful times. As a Shinso vampire, she possesses immunity to traditional weaknesses like sunlight, exceptional regeneration, flight, and enhanced speed, strength, and senses. Ordinary weapons cannot harm her, evidenced by effortless recovery after being impaled by a stone spear. Her magical expertise centers on ice-based spells and dark magic, enabling her to defeat formidable opponents like Fate Averruncus and the demon god Ryōmen Sukuna. She earned the title "Doll Master" through her ability to animate dolls and control people like puppets using vampiric powers or manipulative threads. Even without magic, her mastery of Aikido—learned directly from its creator Morihei Ueshiba roughly 80 years prior—allows her to overpower larger adversaries. She once developed the dangerous Magia Erebea technique, fusing offensive magic with the user's soul, though it consumes the body and spirit. Her relationship with Nagi's son, Negi Springfield, shifted significantly. Initially antagonistic, she attacked him, claiming his blood could break her curse—a claim later contradicted when she accepted small daily blood payments as part of his magical combat training without achieving freedom. She transitioned into a demanding mentor, assigning menial tasks while rigorously honing his abilities. Despite cruel methods, she demonstrated protectiveness, rescuing Negi and his class during the Kyoto incident by exploiting a curse loophole. She exhibited subtle romantic jealousy over his training with others and shared a sensual kiss with him. Her guidance proved pivotal for Negi's mastery of advanced techniques, including his adaptation of Magia Erebea. Beyond the main series, her story continues in spin-offs like *UQ Holder!*, appearing in timelines where Asuna remained asleep in the Magic World for 130 years. Centuries later, under the alias Yukihime, she joined the United Nations Space Command, rising to colonel in the Marine Corps' 3rd Marine Special Operations Division. She commanded the magically enhanced supercarrier UNSC Yamato and secretly recruited descendants of powerful mages, subjecting them to psychological evaluations and magical training to prepare for conflicts against the Covenant and the Office of Naval Intelligence. She participated in key events like the defense of Earth and the liberation of Mahora during the Second Battle of Earth. She maintains partnerships with the android Chachamaru Karakuri and the doll Chachazero, though they are not Ministra Magi. Her known relatives include adoptive daughter Lucy McDowell and unnamed deceased parents, with the Mage of the Beginning acting as her creator or "mother." She appeared in various anime adaptations, OVAs, and movies, including *Mahou Sensei Negima!*, *Negima!?*, *UQ Holder!*, and the *Mahou Sensei Negima! Movie: Anime Final*.
