Éléonore de La Vallière

Éléonore Albertine Le Blanc de La Blois de La Vallière (エレオノール Ereonōru) is Louise's eldest sister. Her mother and father are the Duke of La Vallière and Karin, Duchess of La Vallière. She resembles her father more than her mother. Éléonore brought Louise out of the magic academy with the intent of finding her a Noble husband. It should be her turn to get married instead of Louise, and she had gotten engaged to the Count of Burgundy, though he called off the marriage. Like most the rest of Louise’s family, except for Cattleya, she believes that Louise is incapable of performing magic because everything she does blows up, and that she is a zero.

Obviously, Éléonore can be rather rough on Louise, and is very intimidating, as seen when she has her ‘evil,’ expression on. She's kind of strict to Louise, usually shouting at her, calling her "Chibi Louise", and pinching her cheek. Despite all of that, she actually cares for her. She is easily upset (even making Louise afraid of her) and she's very bossy. Louise seems to get her violence from Éléonore, as seen when Éléonore whipped Saito after he accidentally snuck into her room, and again later when he looked at her chest for a stamp marking that she was a thief. She does not approve Louise's feelings for Saito, since he is a peasant.

Éléonore works at the Oriz Magic Academy, and went to the Tristain Academy of Magic to teach the students how to use magic in battle, as requested by Queen Henrietta.

Although Éléonore is rather intimidating, she means well. For instance, when Saito informed Éléonore that Louise planned on going to war, Éléonore locked her up and told her she wouldn't let her out until she changed her mind. This may seem rather harsh, though she did it to ensure her sister's safety. Also, when the school had been invaded, and hostages were taken, she volunteered to be a hostage instead, if all the other hostages were set free.

After Saito and Louise were given control of Des Ornières by the queen, Éléonore came to take Louise away since she refused to let her live with an man while unmarried. She was then persuaded to give Louise time to train Saito to be a proper noble before she returned to take her back for good.

After the Ancient Dragon was defeated, she was present at Saito and Louises wedding. She appeared upset about it at first, but eventually smiled in approval of it.
