“ | Bathed deep within the inky shadows, a ghastly face looks down upon them. The one called the master of Fear Mountain, at whose name everyone shakes in fear: the legendary necromancer Nuibaba... | ” | — Pre-map narration |

(Japanese: ヌイババ, Nuibaba) is a minor antagonist first appearing in Fire Emblem Gaiden, in which he appears as an Arcanist who presides over Fear Mountain from his manor. He is presumably a high-ranking member of Duma's clergy, as he has Marla, Juda's daughter, under his command to guard Fear Mountain. He wields the powerful magic spell, Medusa, which he is said to have received in exchange for his soul.[1]
Nuibaba was redesigned significantly in Echoes: Shadows of Valentia, now appearing as a female Witch.
Fire Emblem Gaiden
Role
Nuibaba appears somewhat early in chapter 4.
The Magic Ring in his inventory makes him a formidable opponent, as it greatly increases the range of his Medusa spell.

Trivia
- The opening to the fight against Nuibaba is the only map in the entirety of Gaiden to have any sort of chapter narration.
- While referred to with male pronouns in the original game, Nuibaba is female in the remake. This could be due to the "baba" portion of his name could be construed as coming from 婆 old woman and the character's association with the female monster, Medusa.
