Sally is a female magic scientist and mad researcher from Black Clover who belongs to the organization “Eye of the Midnight Sun,” specializing in gel-type magic and dangerous magical tools.
Name: Sally
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Date of Birth: March 17
Height: 160 cm
Blood Type: B
First-Person Pronoun: “Boku” (a typically masculine self-reference)
Affiliation: Eye of the Midnight Sun (former), later cooperates with the Black Bull squad
Occupation: Magic scientist / magical tool researcher
Likes: Interesting research subjects, especially unusual bodies and grimoires
Magic Attribute: Gel
Sally is a bespectacled girl who wears revealing clothing, emphasizing her eccentric and provocative style.
Her appearance matches her personality: she radiates a sense of manic curiosity and experimental recklessness.
She is a classic mad scientist type, speaking and acting with an unrestrained, often unsettling enthusiasm.
For Sally, anything that looks new, strange, or dangerous is a potential experiment rather than a threat.
She treats people, bodies, and magic as “research materials,” which makes her dangerous but also intellectually brilliant.
Despite this, she can be oddly straightforward and honest about her motives, which sometimes makes her unintentionally comical.
Sally works as a magic scientist for the Eye of the Midnight Sun, contributing with her research in magic science and magical tools.
Her talents lie in combining magic with devices to produce unpredictable but powerful results.
At one point she infiltrates the Black Bull base and steals a magic stone that the squad was protecting.
However, her own side later uses her in a way she did not expect, turning her from researcher into a sacrificial piece.
After surviving through unexpected means, she later enters a cooperation relationship with the Black Bull squad.
Her primary reason is access to research material, especially Asta, rather than any sudden moral awakening.
Later, after the Clover Kingdom is attacked by Zenon Zogratis and Dante Zogratis, Sally is chosen by Nacht Faust as one of the elite members for the Spade Kingdom raid team.
This highlights the Kingdom’s recognition of her abilities despite her dubious background.
Gel Magic Overview
Sally is a user of Gel Magic, allowing her to create and manipulate viscous, jelly-like substances.
This attribute gives her incredible flexibility in defense, support, and battlefield control.
Her gel can bend beams of magic, neutralize poison, and create large, tough constructs.
Because of this, her defensive capability is extremely high, making her hard to damage directly.
Sally specializes in combining her gel magic with magical tools that add special properties to magic.
By enhancing herself and her allies with these tools, she can turn a battle around without being a pure frontline fighter.
Notable Spell: Sticky Salamander
Name: Sticky Salamander
Sally can create a giant axolotl-like creature entirely made of gel.
This gel familiar can act as a moving shield, absorbing and deflecting attacks.
When used together with a certain forbidden-type magical tool called the Magic Mass Scorpion, her magic power is multiplied tenfold.
In this boosted state, the spell is called “Huge Sticky Salamander,” massively increasing its defensive capacity.
With this combination, Sally’s gel was even able to defend against Nozel Silva’s powerful silver rain attack.
Sally carries various magical tools designed to modify and enhance magic.
These tools can add additional traits to existing spells, strengthen users, or create special conditions for experiments.
Her style is experimental and improvisational: she mixes gel magic with tools on the spot to produce new effects.
She often tests these combinations directly on herself or her allies, with little regard for safety.
She is particularly interested in magic systems that break normal rules, such as anti-magic.
Anything that defies standard magic theory is, to her, the “best possible toy.”
Sally has an intense and borderline obsessive interest in Asta, who wields anti-magic.
To her, Asta’s body and grimoire are priceless research subjects that could overturn magical common sense.
She is so fascinated that she ignores her comrades’ objections and tries to physically bring Asta back to her base.
Her stated goal is to “thoroughly research” his body and grimoire, a statement that disturbs almost everyone except herself.
Later, after she is revived and her situation changes, Sally makes a deal with Asta and the Black Bulls.
She agrees to cooperate with them as long as she can continue her research, with Asta’s voluntary participation as a key condition.
Interestingly, Asta’s idea of “research that helps people” begins to influence her thinking.
She becomes strongly interested in using her knowledge and tools in ways that can be beneficial, not just destructive.
Eye of the Midnight Sun and the Magic Stone
While working for the Eye of the Midnight Sun, Sally infiltrates the Black Bull hideout.
There, she steals a magic stone that was stored in the base, contributing to her group’s larger plan.
However, when the time comes to use forbidden magic, she learns that the ritual requires vast magic power and sacrifices.
Licht (in reality Patry, possessing his body) uses her as part of this “sacrifice,” treating her as expendable.
Sally ends up as a victim of the very side she serves, illustrating how little they value her life beyond her utility.
Yet this is not the end of her story, due to outside interference.
Survival through Rades Spirito
Sally is brought back from death thanks to the evolved necromancy magic of Rades Spirito.
His improved magic allows him to return her to life as more than just a mindless undead.
After this, Sally’s path crosses again with Asta and the Black Bull squad.
They reach an agreement: she will help them, and in return, Asta cooperates in her research.
This collaboration leads her to fight alongside former enemies, using her gel magic and tools in support of the Black Bulls.
Her scientific curiosity is now partially aligned with the Kingdom’s survival.
Dream World of Dorothy Unsworth
During the conflict involving the reincarnated elves, Dorothy Unsworth is taken over by an elf through reincarnation magic.
Dorothy’s dream magic creates a sealed dream world where the rules are normally entirely in her favor.
Inside this dream world, Sally is trapped along with others.
However, thanks to her sharp, analytical mind, she is the first to notice the weaknesses and limitations in Dorothy’s magic.
Her quick understanding of the dream world’s flaws becomes crucial for creating a strategy to escape or counter it.
This shows that her intellect is not limited to laboratory work; she is also tactically perceptive in extreme situations.
Post-Incident Reconstruction
After the chaotic events involving the elves and forbidden magic, the Clover Kingdom faces large-scale destruction.
Sally participates in the reconstruction efforts, putting her knowledge and abilities to use in rebuilding rather than wrecking.
This work marks a subtle shift in how she applies her talents.
She starts to explore applications of her research that can support others, tying back to the idea of “research that helps people.”
Anime-Original Training Against the Devil
In an anime-original training arc meant to prepare for a powerful devil, Sally appears alongside Marx Francois before the Black Bull squad.
Acting under orders from Julius Novachrono, she tries to develop new magical tools by experimenting directly on the squad members.
She injects them with experimental medicines and substances, causing a chaotic series of slapstick mishaps.
Although this turns into a comic disaster, it also serves as data-gathering for her new inventions.
By the end of this training episode, Asta’s words about “research that benefits people” leave a strong impression on her.
She leaves with a growing fascination for the idea of using her science in a more constructive, socially useful way.
Selection for the Spade Kingdom Raid
After the Clover Kingdom is attacked by the Dark Triad members Zenon Zogratis and Dante Zogratis, the situation escalates into a major international conflict.
Nacht Faust gathers a team of elites to mount a counterattack on the Spade Kingdom.
Sally is chosen as one of these elite members, alongside other powerful mages.
Her inclusion proves that, regardless of her past, her combat utility and magical science are valued at the highest levels.
Sally rarely fights by brute force; instead, she relies on creativity, defense, and support.
Her gel magic allows her to distort trajectories, absorb impacts, and set up complex battlefield zones.
She is especially dangerous when she has time to prepare tools or to analyze an opponent’s magic.
Given even a short observation window, she can often identify weaknesses, mechanisms, or ways to twist an enemy’s spell to her advantage.
Her willingness to experiment mid-battle can make her unpredictable.
While this is risky, it also means she is not bound by conventional tactics or fear of self-harm.
Sally’s main driving force is curiosity; morality is secondary unless it intersects with “interesting research.”
She can be disturbingly cheerful while talking about dissecting, modifying, or restructuring a person.
She uses the pronoun “boku,” which is more typical of men, giving her speech a slightly boyish tone.
Combined with her revealing outfits and wild expressions, this makes her stand out even more.
Despite her madness, she is not actively cruel for cruelty’s sake; she is simply indifferent when research is involved.
With the influence of Asta and others, she slowly starts to entertain the idea that experimentation and ethics do not have to be enemies.
She enjoys lively environments and chaos, especially if they provide unusual data.
Black Bull’s unpredictable members and Asta’s anti-magic make their base feel like a dream lab to her.
Sally embodies the theme of knowledge without restraint: brilliant, innovative, but dangerously detached from ethics.
Her arc hints at the possibility of redirecting such raw curiosity toward constructive ends.
By shifting from a villainous researcher for the Eye of the Midnight Sun to an uneasy ally of the Black Bulls, she represents a form of redemption through science.
Her journey raises the question of how power and intellect should be used—and who gets to decide what “worthwhile research” really is.
