Madame Aisha is a Campione in the Campione! series. She is also the main antagonist of the series Campione: Lord of Realms.
Personality[]
Madame Aisha appears to be the least offensive of the known Campione, even more so than Godou. Preferring to go out and help people instead of enforcing her will upon them, Aisha prefers to spend most of her time traveling because staying in one location for too long feels suffocating to her, so she actually doesn't mind her Authority Fairy's Corridor dropping her in random locations throughout time. She loves to help others, and even if she knows her actions in the past might cause turmoil throughout the timeline, Aisha still goes through with them for the sake of helping those in front of her and worries about the consequences later. Due to an Authority she obtained from a Catholic saint, Aisha passively makes it so that everyone in the vicinity likes her. However, because of the potential trouble she could cause from her Authorities and her personality that can't help but help others, it makes it so that everyone who does know her typically goes out of their way to avoid her and that's what makes them mark her as easily being the most troublesome Campione, which is a fact proven by the lord of time.
Despite being the third oldest of the Campione, Aisha desperately claims she's 17, even though she's actually in her 150's in the present time. Another fact would be that even though she speaks of virtue, Aisha is actually still naive and believes in gossip like many young girls. This is shown when she assumed Godou was a debauched ruler (although she's technically right), however, this makes her interactions awkward. She's also prone to misunderstandings, in the case of thinking that Godou fell for her when it was the reverse, and when meeting Doni and hearing from him about his adventure called the idiot with a noble soul.
This apparently shows another part of her personality. The fact that she gets along better with Salvatore Doni is proof that her idiocy is on par with his. How Aisha uses her powers is also dangerous is because she travels within time-space even with corrections, and she still carelessly alters history, which greatly infuriating the time immortal. And, while the two elder kings are tyrannical and haughty respectively, she is still obstinate when fighting for her warped sense of kindness to go so far as rouse up an army to die in battle with a god.
Battle-wise, she is a bit like Godou, as both seem to be lacking in battle/tyranny. However, while Godou puts on an unimpressive display then surprises his opponents, Aisha is genuine in peace, but like Godou, misunderstandings from foes leads to violent scuffles, and her abilities activate on reflex, looking like a negotiation trap. This forces her, while lacking in combat and offensive Authorities, to make use of supplementation and defense with deception. In the words of Doni, her fighting style is a sly one.
History[]
Aisha was born in northern India, during the British colonial era, to a family of low caste. At seven years old, she became the maid of an English gentleman who owned a diamond mine. She became very close to the gentleman's daughter, who convinced her to travel back to England with the family, when it came time for them to return. Unfortunately, Aisha was discriminated for her ethnicity and low birth. After a time, when Aisha was seventeen, both the gentleman and his daughter passed away. The daughter left Aisha, her close friend, her entire inheritance. Using her new fortune, she traveled to Greece during the discovery of the ruins of Troy, where she first encountered the Heretic God Persephone, and became a Campione. The rumors of her being a recluse are mostly false, as she in fact is not often seen due to using her Authority "Fairy's Corridor" to spend most of her time in the past and hardly any in the present world. Although she is rumored to own a mansion in modern day Alexandria, it is unknown how much time she actually spends there.
Aisha has traveled to many places and time periods with her Authority, although the exact number of places and time periods is unknown. An example is when she once arrived in nineteenth century London and took a steamboat for a return trip to India. Another would be when Aisha ended up in ninth century Samarkand, she would cross the Pamir Mountains and the Tian Shan mountain ranges by camel to travel towards Chang'an via the Silk Road.
Because of her constant time traveling, Aisha is 'much' younger than most think, and she is actually 17 years old. At least that's what she claims.
Appearance[]
While her true age is unknown due to the fact she keeps traveling through time, Aisha says she estimates herself to be both physically and mentally 17 years old. She has olive-brown skin with black hair, being of Indian ancestry, blue eyes, and a large, well formed chest. She prefers to wear loose, white robes and an overcoat, giving her an appearance reminiscent of a nun.

Powers and Abilities[]
As a godslayer, Aisha has all the basic physical enhancements granted by Circle of Usurpation when she ascended to the status of campione.
Immense magical energy: Aisha possess an immense amount of magical energy. At least several hundreds of time more than a trained mage.
Immense magic resistance: Due to her immense magical energy, most of human magic can't penetrate through her body unless it's physically applied through her mouth or respiratory system. Even divine authorities will find their power reduced to a small percentage of its original power. Her resistance is potent enough to the point that she can reverse Zurvan's curse of time reversal inside her body while being sealed inside the holy grail.
Immense Vitality: Aisha's body is brimming with an impossible amount of lifeforce. Normal wounds will be healed at a very fast rate and she won't die immediately from a fatal injuries that kill a regular human. Her lifespan has been greatly enhance and her aging is much slower than a regular mortal.
Immense pain tolerance: Aisha's body release an adrenaline several hundred times more than normal human to numb any pains when she fights the gods or godslayers.
Superhuman Stamina: Aisha may look delicate on the outside, she has a lot of stamina and easily hiking a snow mountain on foot without any equipments while wearing a clothing unsuitable for mountain climbing.
Superhuman Durability: Aisha is extremely durable, since her bones are tougher than steel. She can survive a fall from a several stories building with minor discomforts.
Night vision: Aisha's eyes can see in the dark better than any nocturnal beasts.
Spiritual body: As a sleeping princess, Aisha learns how to detach her soul from her body. She has gain several exotic abilities as a living spirit of godslayer. She can look into someone's heart and read their memories instantly. If the target has a great power as a spiritual medium, she can forcefully possess the target and overwhelm their soul with her strength as a godslayer.
Her usual behaviors and very existence becomes a sort of feint or diversion during battle. Not to mention she doesn't bother to control them, making them even more deadly. This actually connects to her theme which is Priest, as three of her authorities have domain around her and affect others in a frenzy of holy zeal. Also, all of them are used for the benefit of the masses, even relying on the conditions of the followers, despite leading to doom, like a corrupt pope declaring a genocide sacred.
Aisha's authorities[]
Aisha also possesses Authorities drawn from the various Heretic Gods she has slain:
Live or Die - is the first Authority Aisha obtained from the Greek Goddess of Spring Persephone,
- Vitakinesis: As a queen of spring, Aisha can heal any form of injuries or maladies. Every physical abnormalities caused by non-magical or magical means will be restored completely to a perfect condition. This authority grants her an ability to see a poison or a curse within the target's body.
- Purification: Aisha can dispel any form of curse. She can cure a target of Athena's petrification eyes easiliy, restoring them from a stone statue to a normal human body.
Persephone is a goddess of spring, but at the same time, she's the mistress of the underworld. This aspect of the goddess has been translated into the authority along with her kinder side. At first, the author stated that Aisha needs about half a day to prepare the authority, but in Campione EX, she can do it instantly.
- Cyrokinesis: Aisha can generate cold air from her body. It is potent enough to freeze a normal human to death. She's also capable of releasing a solid ice to capture her target. The ice contains a massive power and even gods or godslayers find it hard to escape form. If she overuse this power, the winter come and presist on the area where she used it for a very long time.
- Coldness immunity: AIsha's body will not suffer from cold temperature no matter how cold it is. She can climb the snow mountain in nun outfit without showing any sign of physical discomfortment.
- Underworld descend: As the queen of death, Aisha can open a fissure that connects to the underworld. Every beings who fell into this hole will enter a state of suspended animation immediately. The only way to resist this is to possess enough magical energy to push back the curse. The effects will be reduced if the target is a god with an ability to ressurect or a mother earth goddess.
This authority is extremely powerful, but it has some drawbacks.
- The healing aspect of this authority will be weaken and the power over winter is completely disable if she opens the gate to the underworld. It will take a considerable amount of time to regenerate.
- Aisha's healing authority doesn't work on herself or other godslayers, but the winter aspect works just fine.
Fairy's Corridor -obtained from the Queen of Tir-na-nOg Niamh, it allows Aisha to open portals to the Netherworld and connect them to past ages. Tir-na-nOg (Land of the Young), while often mistaken as being an afterlife, was instead an island in Irish mythology which the faeries lived on that was a paradise on Earth where hunger, age, and death were unknown. The Witenagamot calls it Beyond the Timeless Horizon.
- Interdimensional Wormhole: Aisha can open a gate exclusively connected to the mythical realm, a parallel world where mythology are true. Due to its uncontrollable nature, her authority randomly generates a phenomenon called spatial distortion through out the multiverse, causing a calamity in a multiversal scale.
- Space and time sensitivity: This authority used to be a time travel authority, it naturally sharpens Aisha's instinct toward a subject of time traveling. She can faintly perceive a flow of corrective force and a voice of the protector of history.
Prior to the devil king civil war, this authority worked as a bi-directional time portal instead of a gate to parallel universes.
- Time portal: Aisha can open a gate and travel back to the past or astral world. It is unable to travel to the future by any means possible. When she pushed this authority to its absolute limit, a giant gate will open atop of the sky, releasing a golden light and several smiling fairies to capture the targets.
- Corrective force: Aisha can subtlely use the corrective force of history to protect herself from harm by invalidating an attack that shouldn't happen in the past.
The authority has several glaring weakness that can cause a calamity to the world.
- The hole will randomly appear throughout the multiverse regardless of Aisha's command.
- If Aisha is killed, the existing portals will go berserk, fusing several mythological world together.
- The destination is random, Aisha can't choose where or when she wants to go on adventure.
- Even though the destination is set, the arrival time is varied. It can be a day faster or a month later than the intended schedule.
Incantation:
- "In order to carry us to far beyond――o blessed fairy children, please display the works of wonder here right now!"
Charm or Curse - is the third Authority she commands which she drew from a Catholic saint. It seems to make everyone Aisha encounters like her, allowing her to travel to any time period without people troubling her. She says it could also be used to form a cult of fanatics that would gladly lay down their lives for her, but she clearly dislikes the idea of this and has no intention of doing so. However, if she encourages them too much, they will turn into a bunch of fanatics regardless. Another, dangerous effect is that since it activates on its own, she can't control it and whatever shenanigans she is involved in, people will obey. Thus making it a lethal type of hypnosis, as Erica and Ena were helpless to disobey her until they were far from her range.
Grand Luck - is the fourth Authority she possesses, which she obtained in China by defeating a benevolent guardian god of the populace. It grants the blessings of fortune on a task she sets herself when she vows to do good. She gains great luck, and those who seek to inhibit her find themselves experiencing bad luck. Unfortunately, she can apparently be caught up in the other's bad luck if their paths cross. She can turn it off at will, but once an act of fortune or misfortune starts she cannot stop it until it has passed. A good luck that was too abrupt would also give abrupt bad luck as the reversal of that.
In Shiniki no Campiones, If the enemy she fights is someone who'll twist destiny and bring forth the end of the world. Her authority will make 'time' and 'history' be on her side. She's be granted a supreme luck, allowing her to be the luckiest person since the dawn of earth. This almost invincible state can grant a miracle powerful enough to reverse the destruction of the world. Even corrective force will make divine sword of salvation descend to her aid and protection.
Aisha can bestow her luck to other individual. However, the recoil from this technique is very high, thus Aisha refrains from doing this. Ren got his authority sealed from having his luck boosted to its upper most limit.
Incantation:
- "When time is not ripe yet for good to result, even the benevolent shall encounter misfortune, when time is ripe for good to result, fortune shall come to pass... Until the goddess bringing calamity to the people is defeated, please grant protection!"
Jabberwock Slayer - is her final Authority that she obtained from a God of Steel. It summons a giant Archdemon, which is Aisha's Avatar. From the waist up, this Archdemon is a giant who is wearing heavy armor, from the waist down, it is made out of mist. In full body, the Archdemon has an enormous fat torso, with stubby little arms. This gives the giant an appearance of a an obese knight that was in Godou's thoughts almost comical if it wasn't for the fact that it was dangerous. This Authority could not be used without the populace's support. Conversely, given their support—the voices of those seeking protection—No matter how exhausted her body, this authority would still bestow Aisha with the "power to defend the populace.
Incantation:
- "Awaken, soul of steel! Exhibit to the world the sword's lack of mercy!"
