Irene Smirnoff

Irene Smirnoff (アイリーン スミノフ, Airīn Suminofu) is a High Class Magician of Magnostadt and the Magnostadt Academy. She teaches the Zemi: Rukh's Properties and Alterations.

Appearance
Irene is a young woman with long light colored hair tied into a ponytail, that extends past her shoulders. She wears a dark colored robe with a white V collar and three metal on it, a white belt, and sorcerer hat with a metal accessory. She also wears a monocle and carries a wand.

Personality
Irene hates lucky people. As the majority of the magicians, she doesn't seem to think that the life of the Goi have much value, but she was reluctant to use Magnostadt's weapon repeatedly because she knew that lots of people in the 5th District would die. Even though, she's not above to make sacrifices for higher purposes, since she continued shooting with the weapon, saying that was inevitable.

History
Nothing about Irene's history was explained.

Magnostadt Arc
Irene is one of the magicians that accompanies Matal Mogamett when he breaks up a fight between Titus Alexius and Aladdin. When Mogamett is done complimenting Aladdin, she informs Aladdin and Titus that they will be fighting in a real battle exam the next day and also explains why they will need to do it. The next day, when Aladdin and Titus have their fight, Irene is the teacher that gives the signal to start the battle, and indicates them that they won't be able to leave the barrier until the signal stop is given, and tells them to dedicate all their strength to the death match. Then she watches they fight, but when Aladdin and Titus discovers the magic stone of the other, Irene points that their movements weakened after the last attack, and asks if something happened to them.

The next day, Aladdin asks her about the 5th Level Authorization District, and she tells him that she can't say anything about it until after he takes the Ideology Reformation Course. The next day, when Mogamett gives the students the Ideology Reformation Course, she is one of the teachers that are with him.

After the course, Irene introduces herself to Aladdin as the teacher of the Rukh's Properties and Alteration class. When Aladdin tries to greet her, she hits his hand away and says that she doesn't like him, because of his luck. She brings Aladdin into the class and explains about Black Rukh to the class. She shows that they can create a Djinn with it. She asks Aladdin about what he knows, and Aladdin asks if Magnostadt has connections to a certain organization. She feigns ignorance and then dismisses the class.

Days later, Irene calms down the Magicians after Mogamett tells them that Magnostadt is going to war against the Reim Empire. She tells them that they have stored a lot of power in order to defeat the arrogant Goi kings. She later attends the meeting of Mogamett telling everyone why they have to win.

War Arc
After the war begins, Irene listens at Scheherazade's ultimatum, and says that they can come if they want, and calls them "arrogant invaders".

When the war begins, she fights with the other High Class Magicians against Reim's Army. She and her subordinates attacks with Sharrar Merra.

When the Reim Empire attacks with powder, a student asks Irene what's that. First, Irene is surprised and says that it's the 1st Type of Magic, but then rectifies, and says that is something even more complex and powerful.

She's completely shocked, like the other magicians, when the powder manages to destroy Magnostadt's Magic Barriers.

Then, Magnostadt soldiers charge with magic tools, and Irene's seen commanding them. When the Fanalis Corps appears she's surprised. Irene is also one in charge of the Magnostadt magic weapon, and is one of the magicians that gives the order to shoot. At some point and because of the appearance of the Fanalis of Reim, they have to shoot more than what they supposed to, and a student says that if they continue like that, lots of people in the 5th District will die. The student asks Irene what to do, and she hesitates but gives the order to shoot again. Then, but, Titus appears and destroys the magoi supply lines.

When Aladdin regains his powers as a Magi, asks to Irene if he can talk with the Chancellor. Irene answers that it's not possible to have a conversation with him, but that Mogamett should be able to listen at Aladdin's words. She adds that Mogamett is watching the battle progress with his long-range Clairvoyance Magic.

When Aladdin sweeps Reim's Army to the shore, Irene orders to bring the wound soldiers back to Magnostadt. She is horrified like the others when Mu Alexius enters in his full Djinn Equip form and shows his power.

Even though Irene was in the project of the research of Black Rukh and its applications, even she didn't know anything about the Black Rukh that Mogamett had stored in the deep of the 5th District, and questioned that, if they has such strength why didn't they use it to fight against Reim.
