Background and Personality
Aladdin is one of the central protagonists of Magi alongside Alibaba. As a Magi, he is a powerful and wise individual chosen to guide and protect kings destined to shape the world. Despite his immense power, Aladdin’s personality is that of an innocent and cheerful boy, filled with curiosity about the world around him.
Born in the mystical land of Alma Torran, Aladdin is the son of Solomon and Sheba, two figures of immense importance in his world’s history. After the fall of Alma Torran, he was raised by Ugo in the Sacred Palace, isolated from the world. This upbringing left him with a deep sense of wonder and a longing to connect with others.
Aladdin’s kind-hearted nature often leads him to help those in need, and his intelligence allows him to adapt quickly to various situations. However, beneath his cheerful demeanor lies a deep sense of responsibility as a Magi, especially in combating Al-Thamen, an organization bent on spreading darkness and destruction.
With his staff radiating magical energy, Aladdin steps into battle, his youthful determination and mastery of Rukh shining as a beacon of hope in the face of danger.
