Shamal is one of the main characters of the Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha anime and light novels.
The mother of the three, taking care of most house-related chores, except cooking. She doesn't usually take part in combat, but she has healing power, and her communication and portal magic means she generally acts as a mission control. She also makes most of the cartridges for Vita and Signum. Her Armed Device, Klarwind, resides in her rings.
In the AWA fics, Shamal, known as Shamal Wolkenritter, is part of the AWA and works as one of it's instructors, and is part of the Medical & Health Department.
In the XP4 fics, Shamal debuted in the XP4 Heroes Coalition - Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha.
Appearance[]
Shamal has a short-frizzy blonde hair and has purple eyes. She wears a lab coat over a brown uniform jacket, a white dress shirt, blue neck tie and a black turtleneck shirt, a brown office skirt, black pantyhose and brown slip shoes.
Personality[]
Shamal is typically soft-spoken, kind and polite. She helps around the house, and can be sensitive to criticism, especially with regards to her cooking. Shamal tends to worry about the welfare of Hayate Yagami and the other Wolkenritter, and can occasionally be prone to crying under emotional strain. She is quite close with Hayate, and like Vita, does not address her as "Mistress" but instead affectionately calling her Hayate-chan.
However, it is also revealed in A's Sound Stage 02 that Shamal used to be iron-hearted in the past, ripping off Linker Cores in the past Book of Darkness Incidents, which is strongly different from how she is after meeting Hayate.

Spells[]
- Calming Heal is a healing spell cast by Shamal in A's. It targets an area set as the closest distance of the caster, with the effects to heal wounds, accelerate the recovery of stamina and mana, and repair Barrier Jackets.
- Commandment Rope is a binding spell cast by Shamal with the wires of Klarwind's Pendelform. Presumably it is the base spell of Commandment Chain, a similar spell introduced in earlier series (but chronologically after Commandment Rope's deployment).
- Communication Jamming is a spell cast by Shamal to generate a field to interfere telepathy or other magical communications. It may also jam electronic or wireless waves.
- Healing Wind is a healing spell under the Ancient Belkan magic system. Through enchantment with the caster's mana, living beings in the targeted area are vitalized, so that healing of wounds and recovery from fatigue are accelerated, and defensive equipment is repaired. In cases when the targets have consumed mana severely, the caster may even share his or her mana, making it a synthetic healing spell.

Notably, she has never cast nor been described as capable of such attack in the primary continuity. Shamal generates a whirlwind that swirls to the front for a certain rangeto attack.
