Magdaran Bael is the youngest son of Lord Bael and the only child of his second wife, and the younger half-brother of Sairaorg Bael.
Appearance
Magdaran is noted to resemble his half-brother Sairaorg in appeareance, having black hair and the signature purple eyes of the Bael Clan.
Personality
Since childhood, Magdaran is a phytophile, having a deep fondness for plants and flowers, particular the purple flowers that bloomed throughout the Bael city. Magdaran felt emotionally distant from his parents who have never showed him love or spent time together like a real family. Magdaran never truly desired to become the next head of the Bael Clan as he preferred to engage in studying botany over studying politics to succeed his father, doing so to try and please his father and his mother in order to try and deepen their relationship but to no avail.
A dedicated botanist, Magdaran devote much time to researching plants and flowers during his leisure despite earning his father's stern disdain, he never gives up on his passion for botany
Due to his father's influence, Magdaran genuinely felt contempt to Sairaorg who could not inherit the power of destruction and took away the position of next head from him which caused his relationship with his parents to become even more estranged, so much so that he wanted to kill him. Despite that, he also felt conflicted as Sairaorg was the only one who ever paid any real interests in his hobbies as a dedicated botanist and treated and cared for him like real family, therefore he was also angry at himself for hating his brother. Contrary to his father and most other members of the Bael Clan, Magdaran is very humble and deeply cares for the members of his peerage such as Sectaas Barbatos who were the only ones aside from Sairaorg who cared about him personally. Even Bedeze noted that Bael Devils like Magdaran are extremely rare given the fact that the Bael are famous among the Devils for their immense pride and arrogance.
As a result of being completely neglected by his parents, Magdaran had lack any emotional attachments to his life due to finding his life meaningless, even willing to accept his demise if Trihexa were to destroyed the Underworld
After reconciling with Sairaorg during the chaos of Trihexa's awakening, Magdaran became one of Sairaorg's most faithful supporters even sending his own peerage members to support his team in the Azazel Cup.
History
Magdaran was born from Lord Bael's second wife after his son with his first wife was unable to inherent the clan's Power of Destruction. Growing up, Magdaran was put under a lot of pressure into succeeding head of the Bael Clan, but had never received the love that a child should have from his parents. Ironically, he was once very close to his older half-brother who he would play with daily.
One day, in order to find a rare flower, Magdaran went to a mountain near the Bael castle on his own without any guards and was attacked by demonic beasts. At that time, Sairaorg rushed over to save his brother.
Eventually, Sairaorg was exiled along with his mother, Magadaran was left alone with his neglective parents who never cared about him, while being bound by obligation to continue studying politics as his father successor.
At one point, Magdaran discovered seeds of a purple plant that went extinct once before during the war between the Three Factions, which he preserved in good condition and used modern techniques to revive them. Magdaran had done extensive research on plants and even cultivated a rare type of apple. As a result, he received many commendations for his investigations; however, what he received from his father was a warning to mind his own deeds as the heir.
When Sairaorg challenged Magdaran for the position of the next Head, his loss made the distance with his parents to grow further, causing him to hate his brother.
