Fluder Paradyne
Chief court wizard of the Empire, "the Triad" (triple magic caster) · Baharuth Empire · Human · Lv Unknown
Personality
Outwardly a revered, learned teacher, usually gentle and courteous. At his core, though, he is a magic fanatic who would discard everything to glimpse the abyss of magic, and is jealous even of his own disciples. Once he starts talking about magic he cannot stop, while he is rather inept at aristocratic politics.
Abilities
- Studies arcane, divine and spiritual magic simultaneously and can use 6th-tier magic, one of the "Outliers" among humans who have surpassed the Realm of Heroes
- His innate talent lets him see the tier auras of arcane magic casters
- Extends his lifespan with a ritual magic combining the three systems (the age of 268 is a Web novel setting; the books do not state a specific age)
- Has mastered Fly, Fireball, teleportation, 6th-tier Summon Undead and an undead-domination spell of his own devising
History

- Led magic casters in capturing a Death Knight that appeared naturally on the Katze Plains, and has tried to dominate it with his own magic without success (background, Vol. 7)
- Meeting the adventurers "Darkness", he sees the 10th-tier aura Momon reveals after removing his ring, prostrates himself on the spot begging to become his disciple and pledging everything, and from then on betrays the Empire (Vol. 7)
- Proposes to the emperor that workers be sent to scout Nazarick, and when Aura and Mare visit he leaves Jircniv no way out (Vol. 7)
- After the Sorcerer Kingdom is founded he stays in the Empire supplying Nazarick with information, but his betrayal is detected by Jircniv and he is gradually sidelined; Ainz tells him he will be engaged in secret magical research, grants him the Book of the Dead, and orders that "deciphering it is itself training" (Vol. 10)
- At Ainz's request provides information on the dwarven kingdom and runes (Vol. 11)
