Fiamma of the Right

Fiamma of the Right is an antagonist of the magic side in the Toaru Majutsu no Index Light Novels. His name is derived from the Italian name for flame, "Fiamma".

Appareance
He is a tall, skinny man with red hair wearing a red suit. He is always seen with a calm expression and a slight smile.

Personality
Among the members of God's Right Seat, he is seen as the highest position, and the other members are shown to be more loyal to him than they are to the Pope. Behind his calm personality hides a manipulative and ambitious person who doesn't hesitate to overstep his bounds past the authority of the Roman Catholic Church, use the entirety of Russian Orthodox Church, and even declare war against Academy City.

Plot
The leader and center of God's Right Seat, with him stating as long as he's alive the positions of Acqua, Terra and Vent can be replaced, but if he's gone God's Right Seat as a organisation would also be gone beyond salvaging.

He seeks Touma and Index, the former for his power, which Fiamma considers the Holy Stone, and the latter for her knowledge in inaccessible forms of magic. Fiamma also uses his status as the current Pope's mentor to classify Touma as a heretic, thus enabling him to fulfill his purpose to capture Touma. He holds power capable enough to blow the whole of Rome away in one blast, but 2/3 of the damage is avoided by the Pope absorbing it into himself to protect the city, resulting in the Pope being hospitalized; however, part of the Vatican is still damaged from the attack. He makes his way to England, activates the external control of Index's spiritual artifact control, Johann's Pen during the Magic Civil War and also meets Touma, which leads to the both of them fighting. Using his Holy Right to attack Touma, it is destroyed but suddenly regenerates. According to Touma, Fiamma's Holy Right is very similiar to his Imagine Breaker, except the arm is manifested outward.

In Volume 20, he suddenly appears during a meeting between Touma, Lessar, Vent of the Front, and the leader of Elizarina, a country recently separated from Russia, and manages to seize Sasha while fending off the others. During the fight, Vent notices the flaw of Fiamma's power, that it has a limit and reached it while fighting Touma, and corners him, but he then uses Index's remote control once more to keep his 3rd arm, even though it disintegrated physically, and leaves with Sasha captured after defeating all of them.

Abilities
According to him, he holds the symbol of miracles, "The Holy Right" which has the power of the archangel Michael, but he cannot use its full potential as of yet. When his power is used, a mirage- and bird-like claw appears from behind him, which is his main form of attack. However, he's revealed he can now use ANY symbolism magic that has anything to do with the Right Hand, such as Archangel Michael slayed Lucifer with his right hand, the Son of God heals with his right hand, and one need to record bibles with their right hand, plus many others. Touma likened Fiamma’s power to having ‘One hit KO’ in a RPG game (like Final Fantasy) alongside the other options like ‘Fight’, ‘items’ and ‘magic’, thinking it’s really unfair.

With his Holy Right, he has shown he can do the following:
 * The strike that ends everything it touches: this attack destroys everything it touches without any destructive force.
 * The strike that reaches everything when swung: this attack delivers itself right next to its target without any speed, thus allowing him to move anywhere at will.
 * He can produce a 30~40 km-sized sword made of flame.
