Profile[]
Background[]
He was the former teacher of Doctor Heartless.[1]
Appearance[]
Norwich is described as being elderly.[2]
Personality[]
Norwich is very generous with giving out money to his beneficiaries.[2] Norwich is interested in Lord El-Melloi II, but they have not met due to Reines El-Melloi Archisorte acting as a buffer.[3]
He is someone that can’t help but want to see what happens next after he finds something interesting. If he comes across anyone who looks promising, he will reach out to help them. By promising, he doesn’t mean talented, sometimes it can be based just on whoever he finds interesting.[1]

A pseudonym for the Faculty of Modern Magecraft.
Alternatively, the “Daddy Long Legs” family of the Clock Tower.
Having been fortunate with money for generations, the Norwich family has a tradition of adopting people of interest, causing the name to spread throughout the Clock Tower. Once upon a time, Adashino Hishiri and Heartless bore the name, but later cut their ties with them. Neither of which was a particular concern to Norwich, due to their strict philosophy of “It’s not worth pursuing those who flee.”
The name Norwich came to be associated with the Faculty of Modern Magecraft due to the strong backing the Norwich family provided when it was being set up as one of the twelve main Faculties of the Clock Tower.
While the current head of Norwich has taken an interest in El-Melloi II, due to their complex political situation, Reines has decided it is best for them to keep their distance. After all, she had long since given up hope for her brother to possess such a sense for politics.ノーリッジ【組織/そのほか】
現代魔術科の別称。
もしくは、時計塔の有名な『足長おじさん』の家系。
代々やたらと金運がよく、これと目をつけた相手を養子にする伝統があるため、時計塔のあちこちに、ノーリッジの名前を持つ者がいる。かつては化野菱理やハートレスもそのひとりだったのだが、のちに縁組を破棄している。両者ともそれでノーリッジと揉めてないのは、「去る者は追わず」を徹底しているためだ。
現代魔術科がこの名前で呼ばれるのは、十二科のひとつとして現代魔術科が成立した際、ノーリッジが強く後押ししたためである。
現ノーリッジ当主はエルメロイII世を目にかけているのだが、政治的な問題でややこしくなりそうなので、むしろライネスが近づけないようにしている。このあたりの政治感覚は兄に期待できないと諦めている義妹なのであった。
