Nahida

Backstory: Lesser Lord Kusanali dwells deep in the Sanctuary of Surasthana, and has never really been in the limelight, nor has she even been mentioned much. Her burden is heavy, but though she may experience loneliness, and though darkness is all she sees before her, she will not stop moving forward.

Despite her earlier struggles, Nahida rarely expressed her sadness when speaking to others. She consistently maintains a gentle and kind demeanor and treats everyone as equals. However, she acknowledges that her social skills and understanding of human interaction need improvement, which is evident in her slightly eccentric speech and behavior. She has a fondness for analogies and often uses them to explain concepts to others. She believes in guiding people to discover answers on their own, especially regarding complex truths, rather than simply providing the answers. This tendency leads her to incorporate a mix of analogies and subtle clues into her conversations to steer people into reaching the conclusions she hopes they would.

As the God of Wisdom, Nahida's most prominent qualities are her exceptional intelligence, extensive knowledge, and strategic planning. She is capable of devising thorough, multi-layered plans and can even be somewhat manipulative when necessary, as demonstrated during her dealings with Dottore. Perhaps most notably, Nahida excels at discerning when her intelligence is required and when kindness is needed or when both are appropriate.

Personality: When the Traveler and Paimon first encountered Nahida during the Sabzeruz Festival samsara, she was an elusive and secretive figure. Until then, she had chosen to leave the city's governance to the sages, but decided to intervene when they stepped out of line. Her self-esteem was significantly negatively affected due to the way the sages treated her. However, after the sages' downfall and the cleansing of Irminsul, many of these negative traits diminished or disappeared. Now, she openly roams the city in her free time, engaging with her people and exhibiting a much more cheerful outlook on herself.

Appearance: Nahida uses the short female model. She has fair skin, pointed ears, large green eyes, and white hair with Dendro-green tips that glow when she uses her Elemental Skill or her Elemental Burst.
