Character Profile: Sylphiel Nels Lahda

Sylphiel Nels Lahda is a minor character in Slayers, but one of significance. Born and raised in the town of Sairaag, Sylphiel studied under her father, who was the local priest of the town. She is well acquainted with Gourry, who she helped out after he fell one day – and cooked him a meal, which was one of the few things Gourry remembered about their meeting.

Sylphiel is possibly one of the sweetest, kindest persons one can meet, as well as being a great cook. As an apprentice priestess, she is well-versed in white magic and is capable using it to protect anyone she's with – as well as able to use healing spells. She does know bits of black magic and shamanic spell, but they're often weak or ineffective. However, there was ONE spell she had been able to barely master – the Dragon Slave, Lina Inverse's signature spell!
