Nino

A kindhearted member of the Black Fang assassins. Longed to help her mother. Nino is the daughter of the powerful mages Juge and Iris, and older sister to Kai. From a young age, she showed signs of magical potential. Her family lived peacefully until Sonia, a servant of Nergal, arrived seeking their knowledge of dragons. Sonia held Nino hostage to extract information and ultimately executed her parents and brother. Nergal saw potential in Nino and ordered Sonia to adopt her. Sonia complied but resented and emotionally neglected Nino, who nonetheless sought her affection. Within the Black Fang, Nino found kindness from members such as Legault, the Reed brothers, and especially Jaffar. Despite Sonia’s hostility, Brendan—Sonia’s husband—treated Nino warmly, and she regarded him as a father figure. When Jaffar is wounded during a mission, Nino secretly shelters and nurses him back to health. Jaffar reprimands her for showing mercy, as it contradicts the rules of the Black Fang, but her actions begin to affect him. Later, Sonia assigns Nino and Jaffar to assassinate Prince Zephiel. Unbeknownst to Nino, Sonia orders Jaffar to kill her after the mission. Jaffar refuses and instead protects her, revealing his loyalty to her over the Fang. When Nino confronts Sonia, she learns the truth of her past and Sonia's hatred for her. Sonia attacks both of them, and Eliwood’s group intervenes. After joining Eliwood, Nino fights against the remnants of the Black Fang. She expresses sorrow when forced to kill her remaining stepbrother and later their morph copies, including Brendan. Despite her upbringing, Nino maintains a bright, cheerful disposition and gives kindness to others freely. She holds deep respect for those who show her praise and warmth, and while she struggles with her feelings toward Sonia, she ultimately accepts the necessity of ending her foster mother’s life.
