Solid and Nebra Silva

Solid and Nebra Silva are the minor antagonists of Yuki Tabata's Black Clover. Solid is the second son and third-born child who controls Water Magic, and Nebra is the first daughter and second-born child who controls Mist Magic. Like their eldest brother and captain Nozel, they blatantly disregard and abuse their little sister Noelle (a Water Magic user second to Solid) for having a lack of controlling her Water Magic since childhood. In fact, they were born from a highly arrogant noble family with their own Magic Knights squad, the Silver Eagles, in which Noelle is the only Silva family member who did not join, much to the formers' mockery against her.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) They are overly arrogant and egotistical siblings who tend to abuse Noelle for the sake of her lack of controlling her Water Magic since childhood, and they do not have any reason to protect her like Nozel's.
 * 2) They are the worst examples of a mean alpha duo who believe that they, along with Nozel, are very superior than every people with low statuses (commoners, for example), especially the Black Bulls and other Magic Knight squads that are lower-ranked.
 * 3) They are NOT the best examples of siblings who bond better with each other and/or another like the Vermillion siblings (from the Crimson Lions), Tanjiro and Nezuko Kamado, the Flynn-Fletcher siblings, Kai and Nya, and so on.
 * 4) They insulted the wounded captain Fuegoleon Vermillion of the Crimson Lions (who lost his left arm during the assault on the Royal Capital) by saying that the latter makes them feel embarrassed to be a royal (same goes for Noelle, who lacks control of her magic). How disrespectful and self-centered can they get?
 * 5) Like Floch Forster prior to the timeskip, they both have ridiculous and ugly hairstyles.
 * 6) For Solid:
 * 7) *As said in BQ #1, he abuses Noelle by not only just teasing her for having a lack of controlling her Water Magic, but also slapping away her food and destroying her toys mercilessly and.
 * 8) *In the War Merits Conferment Ceremony, he attacked Asta with his Water Magic without having a second thought nor accepting the latter's declaration to become a Wizard King in the future.
 * 9) *In general, he is not the type of person who forgives people easily.
 * 10) *Unlike Noelle in later episodes, he has a weak and pathetic Water Magic, with his small Sea Serpent Twine compared to the former's Sea Dragon's Roar. However, this comparison indicates that Solid deserves to be greatly surpassed by his own little sister who works hard to enhance her magic abilities and prove her siblings wrong.
 * 11) For Nebra:
 * 12) *She has a very irksome personality to mess with people who are more weaker than her in terms of status and power, including Noelle.
 * 13) *After Noelle saved her and Solid from the elf invasion, she has yet to acknowledge the former that she is more powerful than before.

Good Qualities

 * 1) Despite their antagonistic nature against Noelle and those who defy their opinions like Asta, they do perform their duties as Magic Knights; therefore, they are loyal to Julius Novachrono, the recent Wizard King with a good heart.
 * 2) Solid did get defeated by Noelle in the Royal Knights Selection Exam as the latter's sibling revenge against him between Water Magic users.
 * 3) Although Nebra has yet to acknowledge Noelle, Solid did acknowledge her, and he finally admitted that she is stronger than him during the Elf Reincarnation Arc. However, none of them owed Noelle a huge apology for the hardships she suffered for a long time.

Trivia

 * Solid's favorite food is grilled pork chops, and his favorite thing is to talk sarcastically.
 * Nebra's favorite food is pork sauté, and her favorite thing, as said in BQ #7A, is to mess with people.
 * Solid and Noelle shares the same Water Magic inherited from their father.
