Description

Mikoto is a main heroine in Toaru Majutsu no Index and the main protagonist of Toaru Kagaku no Railgun. She is the third ranked Level 5 esper in Academy City, and is nicknamed "the Railgun" due to her signature move. Her ability belongs to a type of esper powers known as Electromaster: those who can generate and manipulate electricity. Being the strongest Electromaster in the Academy City, her maximum output is known to be 1 billion volts.
To most people, she is considered a 'proper lady' (referred as ojou-sama), but in reality, she's short-tempered, prideful, and has an improper attitude with some slight tomboyish tendencies and insecurities, a fact few people know of. Despite this, she is generally friendly and easygoing, and Saten and Uiharu comment on how they are shocked to find that, compared to other Level 5's, she doesn't look down on lower-level espers at all. This is probably because she was originally a level 1 esper and became a Level 5 esper through very hard work.
Often times she shows an incredibly immature and selfish side and even slight tsundere tendencies when her crush, Touma, insults her. To add to this childishness, she has an inclination towards cute things, most specifically, Gekota and Kill Bear merchandise. She likes frog merchandise, but only if it features Gekota.

Description

Age: 12-13

Ruiko is a character from the Toaru Kagaku no Railgun sidestories. She is a Level 0 Academy City student and a classmate and close friend of Uiharu Kaizari. Ruiko has an outgoing and friendly personality, but is a little shameless as she sometimes flips Kazari's (and only her's) skirt in public. She was born outside Academy City and when she was younger, she decided that she wanted to go to Academy City to become an esper.

She is superstitious despite being in the city of science, though she likes to presume otherwise as when she states that she doesn't believe that her mother's good luck charm actually works. Because of this, she is a fan of internet rumors and urban legends, and loves telling her friends about them. This extends to herself, believing that her nose is sensitive to money, though she backs this up by showing Mikoto four bank cards she had already obtained.

Saten Ruiko can be described as a normal-acting preteen in the series in comparison to her peers, not having any extracurricular activities like Judgment or being particularly book smart. She is very affable, quick to make friends, and cheerful. She knows the latest trends and fashions, and in fact has the most wardrobe changes in the series.

Description

Age: 12-13

Kuroko is is a Level 4 esper and a student of Tokiwadai Middle School, as well as a member of Judgment. She can usually be found accompanying the third-ranked Level 5 esper Mikoto — her best friend, partner, and roommate. Aside from being a girl with a modernistic outlook, she can also be blunt when giving her opinions, and this has caused her to be at odds with Uiharu once. Another distinguishing characteristic of Kuroko is her feelings of romantic love towards Mikoto, which is shown to be genuine love.

Kuroko can be described as a "girl living in the future". She is used to the world 30 years from now portrayed by Academy City and is ignorant to the customs that present-day Japan still practices, like the "love umbrella", and the conventional technology outside Academy City. Although usually laid-back and friendly, Kuroko portrays determination and confidence in her own abilities when she encounters enemies, even to those whom she knows is more powerful than herself. To her credit, she is an honorable girl who keeps her word, is kind to children, and shares with Mikoto and Touma the same ironclad sense of justice that makes neither of them ever back down in the face of adversity.

Kazari's ability is Thermal Hand, which allows her to conserve part of the objects temperature she touches. Although she is incapable of normal combat like Kuroko, she still has a strong sense of justice, being a member of Judgment, and will do her utmost to do her duty. She is also very talented in operating computers, as she displayed the ability to easily hack into almost all of Academy City's systems. In fact, her main job in Judgment is working on the computer and use it to support the other members, such as picking up info on trouble makers. This more than makes up for her weak esper ability and lack of physical strength.

Description

Mii is a recurring character in the Toaru Kagaku no Railgun side story. A high school student of Academy City, she is a Level 3 esper and is Chief of the 177th Branch of Judgment where Uiharu Kazari and Shirai Kuroko work. As their senpai (upperclassman) and chief, she tries to make sure both girls take their work at Judgment seriously and at the same time wants them to be safe. Her ability is very similar to a x-ray vision.

Mii displays a responsible and motherly maturity rarely found in girls of her age; an attribute that earned her station of leadership in the 177th Judgement Branch and the universal respect of her juniors, to whom she is a lovingly-kind and reliable big-sister. That said, she is still a teenage girl who shows a warmly mischievous streak when at ease, and can be just as tender-hearted and vulnerable as any 16-year-old girl when it comes to matters of love

She is the current legal guardian of Accelerator, Last Order, and Misaka Worst.

She takes her job seriously, and often berates her junior, Tessou Tsuzuri if she doesn't do her job properly on patrols. Due to her habit of ramming delinquents with protective items like shield or helmets to resolve incidents, saying it's alright to do so since those are protective items, she's known as 'the woman who uses comedy-like methods to solve problems that could end up as a tragedy'.

Out of the job, she is very cheerful, and enjoys beer, eatouts, and public baths with her friends, apparently, willing to go become pass-out drunk in public. She also enjoys teasing Komoe as if she was a child.
