Fern

Fern is a war orphan from the southern provinces in Sousou no Frieren. Adopted by Heiter, she became Frieren's apprentice after his death.

Personality
Fern has a very laid back personality, but is usually the straight man compared to the rest of the group. She is very loyal to her master Frieren, but at times acts as the "mother" figure for the irresponsible Frieren and Stark; for example, she forced Frieren to choose a limited amount of magical items in Chapter 11 and poured a bottle of clothes-melting potion onto Frieren when Frieren did not return it. She frequently scolds Frieren and Stark for their poor sleeping habits.

When it comes to Stark, she is very callous with the way he acts. But she does show appreciation with him when she wants to buy Stark a gift for his birthday.

She has shown a strong dislike of Sein because of his womanizing ways and "corrupt" nature as a Priest. However, although she is very rude to him, she does appreciate his words of wisdom when it comes to advice on relationships.

Appearance
Fern is a young Human with purple hair and purple eyes. She wears a white dress with a black cloak over it, as well as two pieces of jewelry: a butterfly hair ornament gifted by Frieren, and a mirrored lotus Bracelet gifted by Stark on her birthday in Chapter 30.

Abilities
Although Fern's mana is not as great as her master's, the speed with which she summons magic is even better than Frieren's.

She is also able to hide her mana signature, enabling her to trick demons into believing she is an inferior mage.

With the combination of these two abilities she was able to beat the demon Lord Lügner when he believed that he could beat Fern in a battle of attrition (Ch 14).
