Croix Meridies

"You can convert strong human emotions into powerful magical energy. That is why I am probing the hearts of people around the world-- anger, hatred, sadness, jealousy, fear, anxiety--I want to completely absorb all of those emotions."

Croix Meridies (クロワ・メリディエス Kurowa Meridiesu) is the fictional character and main antagonist of Little Witch Academia. A former friend of the main protagonist Atsukko "Akko" Kagari, Chariot dua Nord (currently known under alias Ursula Callistis) who previously helped her in searching for the Grand Triskelion's words, but grew spiteful towards her over not being chosen to wield the Shiny Rod. Her resentments ultimately grow that she later tricked Ursula to employ sinister spell called Dream Fuel Spirit on her spectators (where young Akko and Diana happened to be two of them), crippling their magical powers in process and caused their friendship ended by that point. From there on, she schemes to unlock the Grand Triskelion using her technomagical skills and directly responsible for many misfortunes that protagonists faced.

Appearance
Croix is a young woman of tall stature with white skin complexion. Her eyes are aqua, which she paints with a dark pink eye shadow. Her lilac hair has wavy hairstyle, with a lock that covers her left eye.

She wears a suit that covers her body with a neck that reaches the height of her ears.

She has a brown leather saddlebag, a large cape and high-heeled boots. Sometimes as a student Croix wore her hair long and had glasses, an inversion of Chariot's (whose hair was originally short and who started wearing glasses) disguise as Ursula. However, Croix kept her original hair color.

Personality
Croix can stay uncannily cool under pressure. She is clearly an intelligent woman, having pioneered the field of Magitronics.

She seems to be a good person to the naked eye, offering her inventions and modern machines known to the Academy to help with regard to the work strike by the spirits. However, as part of it was caused by Croix and claims to have a plan in mind, she could be considered a misleading and evil personCroix plans her actions carefully, having surveyed Akko for months before she is confident that even Chariot is powerless to stop her nefarious plot to obtain the magic of the Grand Triskellion.

While she plans out her actions meticulously, she does not think about how her "experiments" will affect others, nor does she care. However, Croix is not completely monstrous nor heartless, as while she is determined to ruin Ursula's dreams as she was genuinely panicking when her robots made Chariot fall unconscious on her broom and nearly plummet to her death, and Croix's cries to awaken Chariot save her life. In the past she was a kind and considerate girl, but seeing her dream stolen by Chariot led her to become a selfish and calculating person.
