List of Kamen Rider Wizard characters
This is a list of fictional characters appearing in the 2012—2013 Kamen Rider Series Kamen Rider Wizard (仮面ライダーウィザード, Kamen Raidā Wizādo), including the title character and his allies.
Antique Shop Omokagedō
Instructed by White Wizard to look for ring maker Shigeru Wajima following their first encounter with him, Haruto and Koyomi take shelter at his shop, the Antique Shop Omokagedō (骨董店・面影堂, Kottōten Omokagedō, lit. "Vestige Hall") and make of it their base of operations.
Haruto Soma
Haruto Soma (操真 晴人, Sōma Haruto) is a mysterious young man who survives being turned into a Phantom, and instead gains the abilities to become the magically powered Kamen Rider Wizard.
Prior to the start of the series, he was among the numerous individuals blessed with the potential to perform magic, called Gates. A former soccer player, he abandoned his dream of turning pro when he injured his best friend and teammate, Kazuya, during a tryout. Able to keep his inner Phantom from tearing him apart from the inside through sheer willpower, Haruto was one of the very few to have survived the ritual and emerged with the ability to perform magic. Haruto receives the WizarDriver (ウィザードライバー, Wizādoraibā) from the White Wizard who saved him from the Phantom Lizardman, enabling him to combat the Phantoms as Wizard.
Motivated to give hope and save people from despair, Haruto took residence in Omokagedō to be provided with more Wizard Rings and, during the events of Kamen Rider Fourze the Movie: Space, Here We Come!, christens himself a Kamen Rider when inspired by Kamen Rider Fourze's definition of the title. Often misunderstood by others, Haruto now finds his mundane life boring now that he must fight the Phantoms while giving people hope. However, he finds solace in his love of doughnuts.[1] In time, Haruto gained two more allies: a rookie detective named Rinko Daimon and a young man named Shunpei Nara. When Haruto first meets the Phantom Phoenix, sensing his inner Phantom, he obtains a new ring that allows him to use his inner Phantom's power. Though WizarDragon warned him of the dangers of manifesting his power in the physical world, Haruto's retort muses the Phantom as he gives his human self the power to defeat Phoenix. Eventually gaining another ally in Kosuke Nito, Kamen Rider Beast, Haruto gains the means to use WizarDragon's power in all four Styles prior to obtaining the Drago Timer (ドラゴタイマー, Dorago Taimā) to fully utilize WizarDragon's full power and defeat Phoenix. Haruto also encounters Mayu Inamori, the twin sister of the woman whom the Phantom Medusa was born from, who the White Wizard took under his wing to learn magic after restraining her inner Phantom.
Later, when the Phantom Legion attacks his Underworld and destroys WizarDragon from the inside, Haruto is rendered a normal human until watching Koyomi almost get killed caused him to regain his magic while using resulting the Infinity Ring that was created to destroy Legion and save Koyomi's life. Soon after, learning that Gremlin is actually Sora Takigawa in mind, Haruto is told of the Phantoms' leader Wiseman and the Philosopher's Stone while becoming troubled when told by the Phantom that Koyomi being able to survive spawning a Phantom is very unlikely.
Soon after an attempt to confront the stronger Wiseman that Haruto encounters Kazuya and reconciles with him prior to encountering Fueki, the White Wizard. With Mayu's return as Kamen Rider Mage, Haruto soon begins to question Fueki's agenda when later abducts Yuzuru Iijima, Kazaki, and Koyomi. Though Haruto feels he still could trust him when he learns he is Koyomi's father, giving his Infinity Ring to Mayu to exchange for her Holy Ring, Haruto is devastated to learn that Fueki is also Wiseman when he kills Medusa and claims Yamamoto. Confronting Fueki while learning that Koyomi is only a vessel of the original animated by the Philosopher's Stone, defeated by a mind-controlled Yamamoto, Haruto learns that he has been using the Phantoms to get three additional wizards to begin a new Sabbath that would fully revive Koyomi as Fueki attempted to do with the last one.
Though he accepted it at first if it meant saving Koyomi, Haruto is horrified to learn that Fueki intends to sacrifice everyone in Tokyo to ensure he succeeds. Luckily, Nito releases Beast Chimera to negate the Sabbath and Haruto confronts Fueki before he escapes. Finding Koyomi as she returns his Infinity Ring to him, Haruto is stopped from reviving her at her request so she can rest in peace and is instead made to promise to take the Philosopher's Stone far away so no one else would suffer.
However, while fighting Fueki, Haruto ends up watching Koyomi being killed by Sora as he claims the stone for himself. Shutting himself at Omokagedō as Sora proceeds to rampage the city, Haruto regains his composure and confronts the Phantom. Telling Sora they are not the same as he looks towards the future instead of the past, Haruto manages to get the Philosopher's Stone as it transforms into the Hope Ring that he uses to defeat the Phantom. Some time later, Haruto leaves Tokyo to honor his promise to Koyomi by hiding the Hope Ring in a place no one would ever find it.
By wearing one of the Transformation Wizard Rings and swinging his left hand in front of the Grimoire Stone kept within the Hand Author on the WizarDriver belt, Haruto can transform into the mystically-powered Kamen Rider Wizard, who is also referred to as the "Ringed Wizard" (指輪の魔法使い, Yubiwa no Mahōtsukai). Depending on the Transformation Ring used, Kamen Rider Wizard can transform into a different form known as a Style (スタイル, Sutairu). After Haruto transforms into Kamen Rider Wizard, he says "Now, it's showtime!" (さあ、ショータイムだ!, Saa, shōtaimu da!) and when Wizard executes one of his finishers, he says "The finale!" (フィナーレだ!, Fināre da!). His finisher is a Rider Kick called Strike Wizard (ストライクウィザード, Sutoraiku Wizādo), a corkscrew side kick enhanced by the power of the element presently wielded.[1] Kamen Rider Wizard can also access WizarDragon's power to enhance his Styles into Dragon (ドラゴン, Doragon) forms. Unlike his other Style Changes, Haruto gains access to these forms after he confronts his inner self, WizarDragon, in his own Underworld. WizarDragon told Haruto that using a Dragon form will hasten his fall into despair. In a Dragon form, Kamen Rider Wizard can perform a more powerful version of the Strike Wizard called Dragon Strike Wizard (ドラゴンストライクウィザード, Doragon Sutoraiku Wizādo).
- Flame Style (フレイムスタイル, Fureimu Sutairu) is Kamen Rider Wizard's round ruby-based basic form, acquiring magical control over fire and heat with the Flame Ring. Flame Style is the most-balanced of the four forms due to its combination of strength, speed, and agility.[1][2][3] When Kamen Rider Wizard changes into this Style, the WizarDriver rhythmically chants "Hee" (ヒー (火), Hī, "Fire"). The magic circle formed by using the Flame Ring typically travels from Kamen Rider Wizard's left side across his body to the right, though it can also be projected in front of him, where he will then run through it.
- Water Style (ウォータースタイル, Wōtā Sutairu) is Kamen Rider Wizard's diamond-shaped sapphire-based form, acquiring magical control over water through the use of the Water Ring. Water Style is slightly weaker than Flame Style, but carries a slightly faster running speed.[1][4][5] When Kamen Rider Wizard changes into this Style, the WizarDriver rhythmically chants "Sui" (スイ (水), "Water"). The magic circle formed by using the Water Ring typically travels from Kamen Rider Wizard's right side across his body to the left, though it can also be projected above him, where it then travels downward.
- Hurricane Style (ハリケーンスタイル, Harikēn Sutairu) is Kamen Rider Wizard's triangular emerald-based form, acquiring magical control over wind and air through the use of the Hurricane Ring. Hurricane Style is the fastest but weakest of the four Styles due to its increase in jumping height and running speed and decrease in punching and kicking powers. Hurricane Style has the ability to hover around the air for quick attacks and its well-suited for aerial combat.[1][6][7] When Kamen Rider Wizard changes into this Style, the WizarDriver rhythmically chants "Foo" (フー (風), Fū, "Wind"). The magic circle formed by the Hurricane Ring typically hovers in the air above Kamen Rider Wizard. He jumps upward through the circle in order to shift into this Style. It is also possible for Kamen Rider Wizard to project the circle below him and fall through it. While in this Style, Kamen Rider Wizard displays a preference for holding the Sword Mode of his main weapon, the WizarSword Gun (ウィザーソードガン, Wizāsōdo Gan), in a reverse grip.
- Land Style (ランドスタイル, Rando Sutairu) is Kamen Rider Wizard's square yellow citrine-based form, acquiring magical control over earth through the use of the Land Ring. Land Style is the strongest of the four Styles, showing an increase in punching and kicking powers, but as a drawback it shows a decrease in jumping height and a slow running speed. Nonetheless, Land Style is better suited for battling strength-oriented Phantoms.[1][8][9] When Kamen Rider Wizard changes into this Style, the WizarDriver rhythmically chants a combination of "Do" (ド (土), "Earth") and "Don" (ドン).[Note 1] The magic circle formed by the Land Ring typically travels upward across Kamen Rider Wizard's body from the ground. Alternatively, the magic circle can be manifested at Kamen Rider Wizard's waist, from there traveling both upwards and downwards at the same time.
- Flame Dragon (フレイムドラゴン, Fureimu Doragon) is the evolved form of Flame Style, enhanced through WizarDragon's power by using the Flame Dragon Ring. By using the Special Ring, the Drago Skull (ドラゴスカル, Dorago Sukaru) manifests from Kamen Rider Wizard's chest and initiates the Dragon Breath (ドラゴンブレス, Doragon Buresu), where WizarDragon's head breathes a torrent of fire.[1][10][11] When changing to Flame Dragon, the WizarDriver rhythmically chants "Bō" (ボー)[Note 2] to the same tune as Flame Style's chant.
- Hurricane Dragon (ハリケーンドラゴン, Harikēn Doragon) is the evolved form of Hurricane Style, enhanced through WizarDragon's power by using the Hurricane Dragon Ring. By using the Special Ring, the Drago Wings (ドラゴウィング, Dorago Wingu) manifest from Kamen Rider Wizard's back, allowing him to fly. With the Thunder Ring, Kamen Rider Wizard can initiate the form's finisher, Dragon Lightning Tornado (ドラゴンライトニングトルネード, Doragon Raitoningu Torunēdo) where he flies around the enemy forming a tornado and causes a storm cloud to strike lightning on the enemy.[12][13] When changing to Hurricane Dragon, the WizarDriver rhythmically chants "Byū" (ビュー)[Note 3] to the same tune as Hurricane Style's chant.
- Special Rush (スペシャルラッシュ, Supesharu Rasshu) is a special form utilizing enhanced red versions of all of WizarDragon's parts, accessed by using the Special Rush Ring. In this form, Kamen Rider Wizard is armed with the Rush Skull (ラッシュスカル, Rasshu Sukaru), the Rush Wings (ラッシュウィング, Rasshu Wingu), the Rush Hell Claws (ラッシュヘルクロー, Rasshu Heru Kurō), and the Rush Tail (ラッシュテイル, Rasshu Teiru) each of which being able to use their respective elements. Special Rush's finisher is the Special Dragon Rush (スペシャルドラゴンラッシュ, Supesharu Doragon Rasshu), attacking enemies with all of WizarDragon's parts then using a variation of the Dragon Strike Wizard. Kamen Rider Wizard uses this form in Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider Wizard & Fourze: Movie War Ultimatum, when fighting Xatan and the Zaiderbeck in the Underworld. When changing into Special Rush, the WizarDriver announces the names of the four elements: Flame (フレイム, Fureimu), Water (ウォーター, Wōtā), Hurricane (ハリケーン, Harikēn), and Land (ランド, Rando). If scanned on the White Wizard Driver, said belt will instead announce, in a row, Volcano (ボルケーノ, Borukēno), Hydro (ハイドロ, Haidoro), Tempest (テンペスト, Tenpesuto), and Horizon (ホライズン, Horaizun).
- Water Dragon (ウォータードラゴン, Wōtā Doragon) is the evolved form of Water Style, enhanced through WizarDragon's power by using the Water Dragon Ring. By using the Special Ring, the Drago Tail (ドラゴテイル, Dorago Teiru) manifests from Kamen Rider Wizard's lower back, allowing him to part a large body of water to unveil whatever lurks within it. With the Blizzard Ring, Kamen Rider Wizard can initiate the form's finisher, Dragon Freeze Whip (ドラゴンフリーズウィップ, Doragon Furīzu Wippu) where he freezes the enemy and shatters the frozen target with his tail.[14][15] When changing to Water Dragon, the WizarDriver rhythmically chants a combination of "Jaba" (ジャバ), "Bashan" (バシャン), and "Zabun" (ザブン)[Note 4] to the same tune as Water Style's chant.
- Land Dragon (ランドドラゴン, Rando Doragon) is the evolved form of Land Style, enhanced through WizarDragon's power by using the Land Dragon Ring. By using the Special Ring, the Drago Hell Claws (ドラゴヘルクロー, Dorago Heru Kurō) manifest from Kamen Rider Wizard's arms, allowing him to cleave through anything. With the Gravity Ring, Kamen Rider Wizard can initiate the form's finisher, Dragon Levitate Torn (ドラゴン浮揚トーン, Doragon Fuyō Tōn) where he infuses the Drago Hell Claws with gravitational energy before striking the enemy with a cross beam slash.[16][17] When changing to Land Dragon, the WizarDriver rhythmically chants a combination of "Dandendon" (ダンデンドン) and "Zudogōn" (ズドゴーン)[Note 5] to the same tune as Land Style's chant.
- All Dragon (オールドラゴン, Ōru Doragon) is the powered up version of Flame Dragon when all four of the Dragon forms' powers become one and utilizes strengthened versions of the WizarDragon parts, accessed by scanning the Prism Drago Light on the Drago Timer. As All Dragon, Kamen Rider Wizard has the powers of the four elements and is able to utilize the All Drago Skull (オールドラゴスカル, Ōru Dorago Sukaru), All Drago Tail (オールドラゴテイル, Ōru Dorago Teiru), All Drago Wings (オールドラゴウィング, Ōru Dorago Wingu), and the All Drago Hell Claws (オールドラゴヘルクロー, Ōru Dorago Heru Kurō) all at once. However, this form can only be used for a limited time, presumably for one of two reasons: it is taxing on Haruto's magical energy reserves or it could speed up his descent into despair and turn him into a Phantom. When performing the finisher, four of the elemental WizarDragon projections attack the target and Kamen Rider Wizard flies up and does the All Dragon Burst (オールドラゴンバースト, Ōru Doragon Bāsuto), a Rider Kick, which is strong enough to send Phoenix to the surface of the Sun.[18]
- Infinity Style (インフィニティースタイル, Infinitī Sutairu) is Kamen Rider Wizard's silver brilliant cut diamond-based ultimate and final form, acquiring the magic of all elements through the use of the Infinity Ring. In this form, Kamen Rider Wizard has enhanced defense and speed as well as the power to call upon WizarDragon outside the Underworld as the Axcalibur (アックスカリバー, Akkusukaribā). When changing into Infinity Style, the WizarDriver rhythmically chants "Hee Sui Foo Do Bō Zaba Byū Dogōn" (ヒースイフードボーザバビュードゴーン, Hī Sui Fū Do Bō Zaba Byū Dogōn).[19][20] The magic circle created by using the Infinity Ring forms at Haruto's feet, traveling upward and encasing his body in cut diamond, which shatters to reveal Infinity Style.

Koyomi
Koyomi (コヨミ) is Haruto Soma's assistant, a mysterious girl who was entrusted to Haruto by the White Wizard after the Sabbath. Koyomi has no memory of her life before and is ultimately comparable to a dead shell. As such, she needs periodical infusions of magical energy through the use of the Please Ring to maintain her being. Though she initially resented her half dead state and wished to just stay dead, Haruto convinces her to have hope in him, accept her present state and work for the future. She currently lives at Wajima's shop, helping Haruto with her unique ability to discern Phantoms-in-disguise from real humans. Eventually, Koyomi learns the truth that she is actually Koyomi Fueki (笛木 暦, Fueki Koyomi), the White Wizard's daughter.

Shigeru Wajima
Shigeru Wajima (輪島 繁, Wajima Shigeru) is the owner of Omokagedō, a skilled ring maker who created the Flame Ring.

But when Haruto came to him after receiving the Flame Ring from the White Wizard, Wajima's resolve was renewed and he began to offer his aid to Haruto by creating more Wizard Rings for him to use in his fight with the Phantoms. Wajima claims that the crafting on the rings depends on the resonance of the stones that he use, but he does not know what magic they are imbued with until they have been tested by Haruto.
Shigeru Wajima is portrayed by Hisahiro Ogura (小倉 久寛, Ogura Hisahiro).
Rinko Daimon
Rinko Daimon (大門 凛子, Daimon Rinko) is a rookie detective at the Metropolitan Police Department's Toriizaka Police Station (鳥居坂署, Toriizaka-sho), joining the police force to help people as her father had. She is dragged into the fight between Kamen Rider Wizard and the Phantoms when she is targeted by the Phantom Minotauros with Haruto destroying both the Phantom Jabberwock (ジャバウォック, Jabawokku) that manifested in her and her magic potential. Though she arrested Haruto to get the full story about the monsters, Rinko is upset that her superiors will not let her investigate the Phantoms as it is out of their purview, which does not match her Edokko upbringing. However, after being saved by Haruto and getting to know him more, she provides support by getting as much information as she can through her sources in the police department and background checks on targeted Gates, as well as leading them to safety. After the final battle, she guides Mayu into joining the police force.

Once Hellhound reveals the ruse and forces him to incinerate his childhood book, Shunpei's despair gives birth to his inner Phantom Cyclops (サイクロプス, Saikuropusu). After Hellhound is destroyed, Kamen Rider Wizard enters Shunpei's Underworld to destroy Cyclops and with it, the youth's magical potential as well. However, Shunpei forces himself into Haruto's life regardless, stating that although he can't use magic, he will do all he can to support a wizard. After the final battle, he becomes an apprentice to Wajima.

Kosuke Nito
Kosuke Nito (仁藤 攻介, Nitō Kōsuke) is young archaeologist from the Fukui Prefecture who is rather optimistic, often believing that pinches and chances are sides of the same coin. He has a gigantic appetite and an unusual liking to mayonnaise, putting it on everything he eats, including doughnuts. He originally lived with his grandmother before he became a student archaeologist. During an expedition, Nito found the Beast Driver (ビーストドライバー, Bīsuto Doraibā) and broke the seal holding a horde of Ghouls at bay. Forced to become Kamen Rider Beast to defeat the monsters, Nito learns he unknowingly forged a pact with the Phantom Beast Chimera and must now consume other Phantoms for their magical energies to keep the Phantom fed, as if it dies, so will he. Through a misunderstanding as to how Kamen Rider Wizard functions in regards to absorbing and replenishing magical power, he labels Haruto his "eternal rival" when they first meet after Nito was targeted by Manticore on the assumption that he was a Gate. Despite it being possible for Haruto to simply use an Engage Ring to enter Nito's Underworld and destroy Beast Chimera, Nito initially refuses on the grounds that his Phantom would be too strong for Kamen Rider Wizard to handle and the experience would "leave a bad taste." Nito later explains that as an archeologist, he wishes to learn more about the Phantoms, the Beast Driver, and the Wizard Rings, believing he will never make as important a discovery as Beast Chimera again.
When Nito attempts to end the second Sabbath, he is overpowered by Fueki. In risky gambit that could have killed him, Nito broke the Beast Driver to release Beast Chimera so he can devour all of the excess magical energies generated by the Sabbath to negate the ritual. In appreciation, the idea of eating not amusing, Beast Chimera spares Nito's life and frees him from their pact before leaving. Despite being a normal human again, Nito aided Haruto during the final battle. Once the Phantoms are finally defeated, taking Yuzuru as an apprentice, Nito decides to find Beast Chimera to learn more about the ancient Phantom. Nito eventually recaptures Chimera and seals it on the Beast Driver once more, but is forced to transform into Kamen Rider Beast once more to confront the Phantom Ogre and a copy of Koyomi he created using the Hope Ring, despite knowing that without Phantoms to consume, he will be eventually eaten by Chimera. After Ogre is defeated, he is consumed by the Nepenthes Inhumanoid under Kamen Rider Bujin Gaim's orders. Nito is later rescued by Kamen Riders Gaim and Wizard and assists them to defeat Bujin Gaim and in the occasion, learns that he can feed Chimera not only with Phantoms but with fruits from the Helheim Forest as well.
Like Kamen Rider Wizard, Nito is able to become the mystically-powered Kamen Rider Beast (仮面ライダービースト, Kamen Raidā Bīsuto), who is also referred to as the "Ancient Wizard" (古の魔法使い, Inishie no Mahōtsukai) and wields the Dice Saber (ダイスサーベル, Daisu Sāberu) rapier in battle, by using the Beast Driver. Akin to Kamen Rider Wizard's Styles, Kamen Rider Beast can change to different forms known as Mantles (マント, Manto), which are named after the special cloak-like attachments that gives him powers of different animals. After Nito transforms into Kamen Rider Beast, he originally said "Now, its feeding time!" (さあ、食事の時間だ!, Saa, Shokuji no jikan da!) until adopting the phrases "Now, it's breakfast time! (さあ、ブレクファースタイムだ!, Saa, Burekufāsutaimu da!) during the morning and "Now, it's lunchtime! (さあ、ランチタイムだ!, Saa, Ranchitaimu da!) during afternoon to contrast with Haruto's own "it's showtime."

Like WizarDragon, Beast Chimera can be summoned within an Underworld to help Beast fight inner-Phantoms. During Fueki's second Sabbath, Nito is forced to break the Beast Driver to release Beast Chimera to devour all of the excess magical energies to negate the ritual. In appreciation, Chimera spares Nito's life and frees him from their pact before leaving. Chimera was later resealed into the Beast Driver by Nito to restore the pact during the events of Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider Gaim & Wizard: The Fateful Sengoku Movie Battle, even though he knows he would be killed as Ogre was the last of the Phantoms.

Medusa (メデューサ, Medyūsa) is a Phantom born from the body of Misa Inamori (稲森 美紗, Inamori Misa), a high school student that Fueki abducted for his first Sabbath, and detests Sora referring to her as Misa (ミサ). Following her birth, Medusa murdered her original self's parents soon after. Medusa is unquestioningly loyal to Wiseman and takes offense to any Phantom who refuses to carry out their mission, to the point of being fully willing to execute them. Cruel and calculating, Medusa has the ability to look through Gates' personal Underworlds and shoot beams from her eyes in human form while her hair can siphon off magic and she wields the Arrogant (アロガント, Aroganto) scepter in her natural Phantom form. In battle, Medusa can use magic and is able to petrify her opponents.[33]
Though she rarely fights, Medusa engages Haruto in combat whenever it is necessary before being forced into aiding Sora when he abuses his new rank as Wiseman's right hand. When Medusa attempts to infiltrate a school to target a student named Takako (多香子), she learns of her original self's twin sister Mayu and attempts to create a Phantom from her instead. But Mayu instead becomes a witch whom the White Wizard mentored to defeat Medusa as one of the first Kamen Rider Mages, Medusa nearly killing her when she is literally backstabbed by Wiseman and dies with the knowledge that she was Fueki's pawn while dissolving into dust.
Medusa is portrayed by Erina Nakayama (中山 絵梨奈, Nakayama Erina). Nakayama also portrays Mayu Inamori.
Phoenix
Phoenix (フェニックス, Fenikkusu) is a Phantom born from the body of a young florist assistant named Yugo Fujita (藤田 雄吾, Fujita Yūgo), who was among those abducted by Fueki during the solar eclipse and sacrificed, referred to by Sora as Yugo (ユウゴ, Yūgo). Unlike his original self, Phoenix is an arrogant berserker with a fiery temper and love for violence. This led to him killing a Gate by mistake, resulting in him being made an observer of the other Phantoms as he seems behave in an overbearing manner to them at a lesser degree. In battle, Phoenix controls hell fire and wields the fire-bladed Catastrophe (カタストロフ, Katasutorofu) broadsword. He can also revive from any attack that would be fatal to other Phantoms, literally rising from the ashes with his power intensified.[34]
After Haruto's constant interference, Phoenix convinces Wiseman to give him permission to deal with him personally while creating a new Phantom using a boy named Hiroki Itoh by going after the boy's parents. Though he overpowers Kamen Rider Wizard at first, Phoenix ends up being destroyed by the Kamen Rider's new Flame Dragon form. Since his defeat, Phoenix vowed revenge on the wizard and engaged him again when he goes after a blonde-haired man named Tatsuro. Though he succeeds in placing Tatsuro in despair by burning his Christmas presents to orphans, Phoenix is taken out with Kamen Rider Wizard Water Dragon's Dragon Freeze Whip long enough for the latter to destroy Tatsuro's inner Phantom Hekatonkheir (ヘカトンケイル, Hekatonkeiru).
Later, furious at Wiseman's decision for him not to go after Haruto, Phoenix's provoked attack on drunkards results in Rinko learning of his original self which Phoenix exploits to earn the officer's trust has not seen him in human form. When Rinko suggests convinces him to act on his own whim, Phoenix injures her while enlisting Sora to enact his plan of settling things with Haruto. But Haruto take Phoenix's immortality into consideration as he uses his All Dragon form to send the Phantom hurtling to the sun. This results in Phoenix being trapped in an inescapable loop of death and rebirth which constantly consume his mana before he even finishes regenerating.
Phoenix is portrayed by Atsumi (篤海).
Sora Takigawa
Sora Takigawa (滝川 空, Takigawa Sora) is a serial killer who murdered and scalped an unknown number of his former clients due to their resemblance to a former girlfriend, whom he killed in a fit of rage after getting dumped by her. Unlike the other Gates whom Fueki abducted for the Sabbath that died when their Phantom counterparts are born, Sora reincarnated as the Phantom Gremlin (グレムリン, Guremurin) and retained all traces of his original self within his new body. Previously referred solely as "a youth" (青年, seinen), Sora acts on his whims while referring to most Phantoms by the names of their original selves. In battle, Sora wields the twin scissor-like Rapture (ラプチャー, Rapuchā) swords and moves at speeds so fast that it appears time has ceased in his surroundings.
Motivated with his desire to have Haruto use the full powers of WizarDragon, Sora provides Section Zero with the green Magic Stone and later gives Haruto a yellow Magic Stone via Koyomi and watches Kamen Rider Wizard put it to good use in his Land Dragon form. He later aids Phoenix in arranging his fight with Haruto, replacing Phoenix as Medusa's fellow observer despite her not completely trusting him. When Medusa asks his reasons and motivation, Sora states that he only wishes to know the entirety of Wiseman's plan and releases the Phantom Legion in a risky gambit to get answers from Wiseman. Managing to win Wiseman's trust, Sora becomes his right hand.
When the popular model Chiaki Shimizu is attacked by the Phantom Argus, Sora reveals his nature as unique Phantom in an attempt of convincing Haruto that they have a lot in common. Sora is disappointed that it failed after Haruto learned of his actions when he was human, with Sora promising to settle things once he obtains the Philosopher's Stone. Sometime later, knowing more than he lets on, Sora directs Haruto to learn more about Fueki while learning that Koyomi houses the Philosopher's Stone. While his first attempt to kidnap Koyomi is foiled, Sora makes his move after the second Sabbath is ruined to relieve Fueki of his Hamel Cane so he can extract the Philosopher's Stone from Koyomi so he can achieve his goal of becoming human, again. But it instead turns Sora into a more powerful version of his Gremlin form as he resolves to amass more magical energy with senseless death and destruction to achieve his goal. He is ultimately defeated by Kamen Rider Wizard after the Philosopher's Stone is removed from him, reverting to his basic form and mortally wounded by the magician's Kick Strike. While Sora dies cursing Haruto for robbing his hope to become human again, he relents when Haruto notes Sora had long discarded his humanity before becoming a Phantom.[35]
Sora Takigawa is portrayed by Takahisa Maeyama (前山 剛久, Maeyama Takahisa).

Once Ogre consumes a Phantom, he permanently acquires their powers. His objective is to devouring WizarDragon, Haruto's inner Phantom, to become a stronger Phantom. He created a fake version of Koyomi by stealing the Hope Ring from Haruto to assume her a White Wizard form. After he entered his Underworld, causing Haruto starts to despair, he was confronted and finally defeated by the combination of "another" Haruto/Wizard and WizarDragon.
Osuga is portrayed by Atsushi (敦士).
White Wizard
The White Wizard (白い魔法使い, Shiroi Mahōtsukai) is the wizard who gave Haruto the means to become Kamen Rider Wizard while leaving Koyomi in his care, overseeing the former's progress while seeing Kosuke Nito as a hindrance to his agenda as he took Mayu Inamori as an apprentice after she successfully suppressed her inner Phantom. It is only after he commissions a Wizard Ring from Wajima that his human identity, a former particle physicist at Kirimine University (霧峰大学, Kirimine Daigaku) named Sou Fueki (笛木 奏, Fueki Sō), is revealed. Sora convinces Haruto to learn more about Fueki, learning that he is not only Koyomi's father but also the Phantoms' leader Wiseman (ワイズマン, Waizuman). Exposed while killing Medusa when he deemed her vendetta against Mayu detrimental to his plans, Fueki reveals that the first Sabbath he caused what meant to fully resurrect his daughter Koyomi with the Philosopher's Stone, but it was incomplete and he used the Phantoms created from the Sabbath to target various Gates in hopes to finding three other magicians besides Haruto to commence a second Sabbath with the entire city as the sacrificial site. After Nito foils the second Sabbath, Fueki attempts to flee Tokyo to resume the Sabbath elsewhere. But, while fighting Wizard Infinity Style, Fueki is tricked into giving up his Hamel Cane to Sora and is killed by the Phantom.[36][37][23]
Sou Fueki transforms into the White Wizard by means of the White Wizard Driver (白い魔法使いドライバー, Shiroi Mahōtsukai Doraibā), a WizarDriver-like belt, with his Palm Author (パームオーサー, Pāmu Ōsā) buckle outlined in red chrome and spiked fingertips, which is properly summoned with the black red-outlined Driver On Ring (ドライバーオンリング, Doraibā On Ringu). Unlike the WizarDriver which says "Please", the White Wizard Driver says "Now" whenever a Wizard Ring is used while "Yes!" and "Understand?" are used instead of "Chōīne!" and "Saikō!" when a ring used for a finisher is scanned.[38] His Transformation Ring, amber-like in color, is the Change Ring (チェンジリング, Chenji Ringu) and his Magic Rings, with clear purple diamond-like stones, are Teleport (テレポート, Terepōto), Explosion (エクスプロージョン, Ekusupurōjon) and Eclipse (エクリプス, Ekuripusu), the last one serving a means to artificially cause an eclipse to start the second Sabbath. Other rings at his disposal include the Copy, Defend, Special, Blizzard, Thunder, and Gravity Rings, and his own Kick Strike Ring that allows him to perform his version of Strike Wizard. Most of the White Wizard's spells are enhanced versions of Wizard's, such as the Copy Ring producing the more powerful Dupe spell whose copies can act independently, much like the Dragon Timer. His personal weapon is the Hamel Cane (ハーメルケイン, Hāmeru Kein) flute. He also has the Plamonsters White Garuda (ホワイトガルーダ, Howaito Garūda) which he later gives to Mayu and Black Cerberus (ブラックケルベロス, Burakku Keruberosu).[39][40] His magic circle when using the Magic Rings reflect the lunar phases of the moon. Assuming the form of Carbuncle (カーバンクル, Kābankuru), an Phantom he artificially created from a combination of magic and science in order to become a magician upon absorbing the creature, Fueki can use his Phantom physiology to produce Magic Stones from which the Wizard Rings are manufactured from.
In March 2014, Uchusen magazine will run a special photographic retrospective on Kamen Rider Wizard. The magazine's official Twitter stated that the White Wizard is called "Kamen Rider Wiseman" (仮面ライダーワイズマン, Kamen Raidā Waizuman) in the materials they received for the editorial.[41]

Having lost both her sister and parents while studying abroad, Mayu returns to Japan and attends a high school that Medusa later enters to target a classmate of hers. Because of her resemblance to Medusa, Haruto and friends initially believe her to be the Phantom herself until learning of Misa. Seeing Medusa, Mayu believes her to be her actual sister rather than a being born from her. While lured into a trap intended to put her in despair so her Phantom can be born, Mayu learns that Medusa is the one who killed her parents. Despite the despair that Medusa took her family from her, Mayu's memory of Misa telling her that only she decides her fate enables her to suppress her Phantom self. As a result, Mayu becomes a witch and accepts the White Wizard's offer to hone her skills so she can hunt Phantoms and avenge her family.
Mayu returns some time later to face against Medusa with her newly acquired powers as Kamen Rider Mage (仮面ライダーメイジ, Kamen Raidā Meiji). Her driver, the Mage's Belt (メイジのベルト, Meiji no Beruto), is similar in appearance and properties to the one used by Fueki. After Mayu transforms into Kamen Rider Mage, she says "Now, its time to end this!" (さあ、終わりの時よ!, Saa, Owari no toki yo!). As Mage, Mayu can arm herself with the WizarSword Gun, which is similar in appearance to Kamen Rider Wizard's except that the Hand Author is replaced with the red-lined Palm Author. Her main offensive capabilities lie in the giant claw on her left hand known as the Scratch Nail (スクラッチネイル, Sukuratchi Neiru).[42] She also possesses the White Garuda Plamonster given to her by Fueki. She then gains possession of the Holy Ring (ホーリーリング, Hōrī Ringu), a powerful Ring that emits a strong light capable of destroying a Phantom, obtained by trading Haruto's Infinity Ring as part of a deal made by the White Wizard, however the Holy Ring fails to destroy Medusa and was mortally wounded by Wiseman instead. Feeling betrayed once Fueki's identity as Wiseman was revealed, she decides to side with Haruto and go against Fueki's plans. However, due to this, Fueki sends out Yuzuru as the blue Kamen Rider Mage to retrieve her unwillingly for his plans. After the final battle against Gremlin, Mayu joins the police under Rinko's guidance.

Being targeted by the Phantom Sylphi, Yuzuru gets Nito's help to teach him after watching him fight Ghouls with his impressive bike skills. Unfortunately, Yuzuru is driven to despair when Sylphi tricks Yuruzu into thinking he mastered biking and engineered the events leading to Akari being knocked out by the boy's bike. But after hearing an unconscious Akari calling out his name, Yuruzu regains hope and suppresses his inner Phantom. Though he eventually decides not to become a wizard, allowing Nito to use the Engage Ring to destroy his inner Phantom, Yuruzu is abducted by Fueki.
Under Fueki's spell, Yuzuru returns as the blue Kamen Rider Mage to retrieve Mayu for the Second Sabbath. After the second Sabbath is foiled by Nito's sacrifice, Yuzuru is freed from White Wizard's spell and decides to fight for Nito's sake alongside Haruto and Mayu.

However, he is distraught as he cannot get in contact with his wife and Haruto reports that there is no sign of her being home. Nito and the others then decide to search for her, to which Yamamoto begs to take him along with them even though it will risk his safety. Aya was later found by Arachne, until Kamen Rider Beast, intervenes to protect her from the Phantom. During this, Medusa takes the advantage of Kamen Rider Beast being too distracted by the Phantom and fires an energy ball toward Aya which seemingly kills her. Seeing this causes Yamamoto to fall into despair and begins transforming into a Phantom, until it is revealed that Haruto used the Defend Ring in just the nick of time to protect her. Upon realizing this, he overcomes his despair and suppresses his inner Phantom. Like Yuzuru, he is forcibly taken by Fueki to become a wizard.
