Solange

Solange (ソランジュ, Soranju) is a mednoble employed at the Royal Academy as a professor and librarian.

Due to the purge following the civil war practically all other librarians were called back to more active roles in noble society. In the absence of any archnobles Solange had to step up and become the Head Librarian, despite only being a mednoble. In addition to having to run the entire library completely on her own, as a mednoble she also lacked the mana capacity to keep all magic tools in the library running and the authority to force students of archnoble or archduke candidate status to return borrowed books, making her job very hard.

Recently her situation improved thanks to the Ehrenfest student Lady Rozemyne ending up reactivating the shumil-shaped magic tools Schwartz and Weiss with an accidentally slipped out blessing upon registering for the library. . The two priceless artifacts have since taken over quite a bit of the routine work like lending out and retrieving carrel keys and documents, enabling Solange to dedicate more of her time to other tasks that she was previously forced to neglect due to a lack of time.

During their dormant period Solange kept pouring mana into Schartz and Weiss. While this was not enough to activate them, it made sure that the wards of the two magic tools would stay active and prevent theft and meddling. After Rozemyne reactivated them, Solange kept contributing mana to them to lessen the potential burden on Rozemyne.

She prays to the statue of Mestionora on the library's second floor at the end of each workday.
