Serie

Frieren's former mentor is an extremely powerful archmage who has lived for over a thousand years. Like most elves, Serie does not often express emotions and appears rather cold at times. However, Serie is very fair in her assessment of others and has a keen intuition for potential. She is pragmatic when assessing situations, immediately recognizing certain dangers, but still willing to concede to her disciples' wishes. With her status and her knowledge, she has gained multiple apprentices throughout the years. Serie acts and initially seems ambivalent about her human apprentices. When faced with their limitations due to lifespan, she declares that human apprentices should not be taken after all, and she claims that she merely took Flamme as an apprentice on a whim. Yet, despite this act, even after centuries or millennia passing, it is noted that she has not forgotten any of her disciples' favorite magic nor their personalities; despite claiming that Flamme's favorite magic was a pointless spell, she conducts the third stage of the First-Class Mage Exam amongst a field of flowers generated by this magic. Like many elves, Serie is not very in touch with her emotions, and as such, she has difficulty properly expressing and identifying her feelings. Serie has admitted that, while disappointed that a vast majority of her apprentices never reached her level or left a considerable mark in history, she never regretted taking them on as her students. Serie values those with burning ambition. She views magic as merely a tool for killing and disagrees vehemently with Frieren's feelings about how the greatest enjoyment of magic comes only during the pursuit of it. Accordingly, Flamme calls her a warmonger. Despite this, she seems to enjoy meeting and fighting those who are strong, and she finds those who can utilize various applications of magic and possess a wide array of spells fascinating
