Though she comes late in the game at a low level, she has high growth rates, causing her to fit into the [[Est]] archetype. | ||

Nino was born in Lycia to a family of famed and powerful mages, consisting of her father Juge, her mother Iris, and her brother Kai. They lived peacefully until, while Nino was still just an infant, Sonia held her and Kai hostage to get their parents to reveal all the secrets they know about dragonkin. Juge and Iris gave Sonia the information she wanted, but she killed them anyways, along with Kai, whom she held hostage. However, before she could finish Nino off, [[Nergal]] stopped her, believing that she could be of some use owing to her lineage.

Over the years, Nino had attempted to earn Sonia's warmth and love, but she was always neglected and spited by her, unsure of why her supposed mother was unable to reciprocate any feelings back to her; at the age of 14, Nino was still completely illiterate, only able to use anima magic by repeating chants she heard from Sonia. Nino's life became slightly better one year prior to the start of the game; upon gaining access to the Black Fang, Nino grew very close to her foster father [[Brendan]], the founder of the group, and his sons [[Lloyd]], the White Wolf, and [[Linus]], the Mad Dog. She also developed a close relationship with [[Jan]] and [[Legault]], both of whom she regarded to as her uncles.<ref> {{Cite|'''Legault:''' Nino! It's you! Ahh...

At the start of the chapter, Nino is seen conversing with her two supposed older brothers, Lloyd and Linus, talking about her current "mission". Upon leaving the two to meet with [[Jaffar]], the two remark how Nino is a kind lass, unlike her supposed mother Sonia. | ||
As the battle gets underway, Nino remains inside a house in the area to wait for Jaffar, as to renew his assassination contract.

While everything initially goes to plan, Nino finds that he is horribly injured and covered in blood, and she treats his wounds after he passes out, going in direct violation of Sonia's newly-introduced Fang's Judgement of getting rid of those who cannot positively help the organization. If the player sends a unit to visit that house, she will prompt him or her to leave, along with denying that she is a member of the Black Fang. | ||
Later on, just before the lords steal back the [[Fire Emblem (item)#Elibe|Fire Emblem]] from the Black Fang, Sonia gives Nino her first official mission as a Black Fang agent. Her mission is to kill Prince [[Zephiel]], and she is to be accompanied by Jaffar, whom she had saved earlier. However, her step-father Brendan and Jaffar push against this plan, believing that it would be far too much for her to handle.<ref> {{Cite|'''Brendan:''' Sonia, I'm against this.

When Nino and Jaffar arrive, they hear Zephiel in his room, praying for his father's acceptance, and for his family to finally get along after the turmoil over the coronation of Bern. Jaffar then breaks into the room, knocks Zephiel out, and then prompts Nino to finish him off. However, Nino refuses, saying that Zephiel is much like her; all he wants is his father's love and affection, just like how Nino wishes those of her "mother's." Knowing the consequences of failure in accordance with Black Fang law, she tells Jaffar that he can go ahead and kill her, as she claims she is ready to die. Instead, Jaffar spares the prince and Nino, and Nino follows Jaffar to escape the castle, until they are stopped by [[Ursula]], the Blue Crow, who plans on killing her, Jaffar, and the prince altogether. Ursula also reveals Sonia's plans on killing Nino, which unpleasantly shocks her. As soon as [[Eliwood]], [[Lyn]], [[Hector]], and their other comrades arrive, Nino is left by Jaffar towards the exit of the castle, and then runs back to kill off the Black Fang members, telling Nino to flee; the mage, however, refuses to leave until Jaffar does as well. In the ensuing battle, Nino engages with a monk in the castle's right wing; if either of the three lords talk to her, they will tell her all about Nergal's schemes in manipulating the Black Fang, and despite finding their story hard to believe, she chooses to join them. After this, Nino eventually finds Jaffar and talks to him, stating that she wants him to leave the battle with her, and that if he doesn't leave, she won't leave either; despite this, he refuses to leave until the lights are turned back on in the manor, after which all of the fighting has ceased. | When Nino and Jaffar arrive, they hear Zephiel in his room, praying for his father's acceptance, and for his family to finally get along after the turmoil over the coronation of Bern.

Only a few hours after the battle ends, Nino elects to temporarily visit the mountain headquarters of the Black Fang to find the truth about her supposed last mission; initially going alone, she is pursued by Jaffar, who is aware that her mission might end up killing her. Upon arriving, Jan, who had just witnessed Brendan's death in the hands of Sonia, tells Nino to leave and get to safety, but Sonia intervenes, and he retreats in fear. Afterwards, Sonia scornfully tells Nino the truth of how she killed her real family, and how she always despised her, which devastates Nino.<ref> {{Cite|'''Sonia:''' You were still a mewling little whelp, but we took you with us.

After the battle and the death of Sonia, Nino meets up with her supposed uncle Jan, who gives her a pendant which contains a picture of her real family. He states that Brendan, who did not trust Sonia the whole time, met with one of her family's housekeepers, who apparently wept with joy upon hearing of Nino's safety, and she gave him the pendant. She plans on cherishing it, and then says her farewells to Jan, believing that she will see him again someday. | After the battle and the death of Sonia, Nino meets up with her supposed uncle Jan, who gives her a pendant which contains a picture of her real family.

In the morning following this, the lords's group finds themselves ensued in a large battle against Black Fang members, who are either led by Lloyd or Linus, Nino's step-brothers. They are both out to seek revenge against the ones who had killed the other, but Nino, upon finding out that the army of Black Fang members is led by one of her beloved step-brothers, plans on meeting up with them to make amends. However, this is unsuccessful in both of Lloyd's and Linus' cases. If Linus was defeated earlier, Nino can talk to Lloyd, and she will try to persuade him to stop fighting, saying that Eliwood is not a bad person at all. However, Lloyd claims that they were his brother's enemies, and that is why he plans on avenging him.

With only a few more chapters to go, as well as the player having an army consisting almost entirely of promoted or near-promoted units at [[Cog of Destiny|that point of the game]], Nino initially comes grossly underpowered as a level 5 mage with low bases; despite this low starting level and availability, her growths are the highest in the game, and as such, she will likely end up as one of the player's most powerful units at the end of the game if she is trained up. In particular, she is almost guaranteed to max most of her stats except for HP and defense as a level 20 Sage, owing to all of her growths except defense and luck are either 50% or higher. | ||
Despite high potential, Nino is not flawless. Owing to her late availability, Nino requires considerable effort to raise, due to her inability to defeat most enemies on her own | Despite her high potential, Nino is not flawless. Owing to her late availability, Nino requires considerable effort to raise, due to her inability to defeat most enemies on her own at first. This is especially a problem in the hard difficulties, due to an abundance of flying enemies that can bypass most units and attack Nino directly, with the wyvern riders in [[Night of Farewells|Chapter 26x/28x: Night of Farewells]] potentially defeating Nino in one hit. Nino's presence is also particularly harmful to ranked runs, as chapters will require more turns to complete as to allow Nino to gain experience. Her inability to defeat units on her own and the fact that enemies also often have to be weakened before she can do lethal damage improves the experience rating, but can also adversely harm the player's combat ranking. Enemies in ''The Blazing Blade'' are generally weak enough where most units will be able to one-round, so Nino's great stats won't stand out that much. Her physical durability is also poor, so even when trained up she is not an especially strong enemy phase fighter. | ||
In addition, Nino has the dubious distinction of having the lowest constitution in the game; she starts with 3 in the stat as a mage, and this only increases to 4 upon promotion. As such, even the basic [[Fire]] tome reduces her attack speed as a mage, and, notably, wielding [[Excalibur]] as a Sage reduces her speed by 9. The [[Elfire]] tome she joins with has a weight of 10, reducing her speed by 7 before promotion and leaving her at risk of getting doubled until her growths take effect, so it's best to give her lighter tomes so that she won't be slowed down as much. While Nino has a high chance of capping speed, it is still recommended she be given a [[Body Ring]] to reduce these significant reductions to her speed: with it, her constitution will go up to 5, so she won't be weighed down by [[Thunder]] when she's promoted. | |||
Overall, despite her high potential, training up Nino is very difficult, and doesn't have enough pay off to be worth doing unless the player likes using a zero-to-hero character. | |||

Nino, despite being neglected and spited by her foster mother on several occasions, has retained a sense of loving optimism and deep caring to those in need; in the former case, she speaks with her two foster brothers about how she hopes that she will do a good job in her next mission, with the two later remarking on this personality trait.<ref>{{cite|'''Nino''': I have a job to do, too!

Nino, however, is also very emotional with other characters in the player's army, especially on the subject of her foster family and herself. When speaking with [[Florina]] about her two foster brothers, Nino is reduced to tears when she believes the two will hate her because of how they ended up on opposite sides of the battlefield, despite Florina's best wishes. <ref>{{cite|'''Nino''': I parted with my brothers...as enemies.

====Analysis==== | |||
{{analysis}} | |||
Nino is widely considered to one of, if not the, best purple card in the game. Her first skill allows her to topdeck the a card from the hand while healing the main character. This allows allies to hit opponents easier while grabbing extra copies of the main character for avoids. Her second skill, if the player chooses to run extra copies of Nino, allows her to draw a card for the cost of a single bond, which is almost always helpful. Her ability to allow allies to hit opponents more often, heal the main character, and allow the player to gain card advantage makes her a staple in most decks that run purple. | |||

“ | I loved the Black Fang. Nergal and Sonia have ruined it, but... The Black Fang that my father and brothers made... Everyone was so kind, I thought of them as my family... | ” | — Nino talking to Jan about the Black Fang. |
---|
Nino (Japanese: ニノ Nino) is a fourteen-year old mage from Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade. Initially kidnapped by Sonia from her true family as a child and brought under the Black Fang upon Sonia's marriage to Brendan Reed, she later chooses to join the player's army upon realizing that the group has strayed far from its original intentions. Though she comes late in the game at a low level, she has high growth rates, causing her to fit into the Est archetype.
Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade
Role
Pre-game
Nino was born in Lycia to a family of famed and powerful mages, consisting of her father Juge, her mother Iris, and her brother Kai. They lived peacefully until, while Nino was still just an infant, Sonia held her and Kai hostage to get their parents to reveal all the secrets they know about dragonkin. Juge and Iris gave Sonia the information she wanted, but she killed them anyways, along with Kai, whom she held hostage. However, before she could finish Nino off, Nergal stopped her, believing that she could be of some use owing to her lineage. Although Sonia was strongly reluctant to follow his orders, Nino was adopted by Sonia as her foster daughter, and was taken into the Black Fang.[4]
Over the years, Nino had attempted to earn Sonia's warmth and love, but she was always neglected and spited by her, unsure of why her supposed mother was unable to reciprocate any feelings back to her; at the age of 14, Nino was still completely illiterate, only able to use anima magic by repeating chants she heard from Sonia. Nino's life became slightly better one year prior to the start of the game; upon gaining access to the Black Fang, Nino grew very close to her foster father Brendan, the founder of the group, and his sons Lloyd, the White Wolf, and Linus, the Mad Dog. She also developed a close relationship with Jan and Legault, both of whom she regarded to as her uncles.[5] Despite being considered a member of the Black Fang, however, Nino received no assignments; Sonia refused to allow the girl the opportunity to be useful, and Brendan did not want to see his adopted daughter in danger.
In-game
Nino makes her first appearance in both Lloyd's and Linus's versions of Chapter 23/24. At the start of the chapter, Nino is seen conversing with her two supposed older brothers, Lloyd and Linus, talking about her current "mission". Upon leaving the two to meet with Jaffar, the two remark how Nino is a kind lass, unlike her supposed mother Sonia.
As the battle gets underway, Nino remains inside a house in the area to wait for Jaffar, as to renew his assassination contract. While everything initially goes to plan, Nino finds that he is horribly injured and covered in blood, and she treats his wounds after he passes out, going in direct violation of Sonia's newly-introduced Fang's Judgement of getting rid of those who cannot positively help the organization. If the player sends a unit to visit that house, she will prompt him or her to leave, along with denying that she is a member of the Black Fang.
Later on, just before the lords steal back the Fire Emblem from the Black Fang, Sonia gives Nino her first official mission as a Black Fang agent. Her mission is to kill Prince Zephiel, and she is to be accompanied by Jaffar, whom she had saved earlier. However, her step-father Brendan and Jaffar push against this plan, believing that it would be far too much for her to handle.[6] Regardless, Sonia sends Nino and Jaffar to Prince Zephiel's headquarters, while also promising an eager Nino that she will go as far as to finally reciprocate some love to her as her daughter; Sonia, however, also orders Jaffar to kill and use her as a scapegoat after assassinating Zephiel to avoid chaos in Bern just after Nino leaves the area.
When Nino and Jaffar arrive, they hear Zephiel in his room, praying for his father's acceptance, and for his family to finally get along after the turmoil over the coronation of Bern. Jaffar then breaks into the room, knocks Zephiel out, and then prompts Nino to finish him off. However, Nino refuses, saying that Zephiel is much like her; all he wants is his father's love and affection, just like how Nino wishes those of her "mother's." Knowing the consequences of failure in accordance with Black Fang law, she tells Jaffar that he can go ahead and kill her, as she claims she is ready to die. Instead, Jaffar spares the prince and Nino, and Nino follows Jaffar to escape the castle, until they are stopped by Ursula, the Blue Crow, who plans on killing her, Jaffar, and the prince altogether. Ursula also reveals Sonia's plans on killing Nino, which unpleasantly shocks her. As soon as Eliwood, Lyn, Hector, and their other comrades arrive, Nino is left by Jaffar towards the exit of the castle, and then runs back to kill off the Black Fang members, telling Nino to flee; the mage, however, refuses to leave until Jaffar does as well. In the ensuing battle, Nino engages with a monk in the castle's right wing; if either of the three lords talk to her, they will tell her all about Nergal's schemes in manipulating the Black Fang, and despite finding their story hard to believe, she chooses to join them. After this, Nino eventually finds Jaffar and talks to him, stating that she wants him to leave the battle with her, and that if he doesn't leave, she won't leave either; despite this, he refuses to leave until the lights are turned back on in the manor, after which all of the fighting has ceased.
Only a few hours after the battle ends, Nino elects to temporarily visit the mountain headquarters of the Black Fang to find the truth about her supposed last mission; initially going alone, she is pursued by Jaffar, who is aware that her mission might end up killing her. Upon arriving, Jan, who had just witnessed Brendan's death in the hands of Sonia, tells Nino to leave and get to safety, but Sonia intervenes, and he retreats in fear. Afterwards, Sonia scornfully tells Nino the truth of how she killed her real family, and how she always despised her, which devastates Nino.[7] Before Sonia could attack Nino and Jaffar, the three lords arrive to assist them, and a battle ensues; if Nino fights against Sonia, the latter will continue taunt and insult Nino, claiming that her parents's naïvety made her sick.
After the battle and the death of Sonia, Nino meets up with her supposed uncle Jan, who gives her a pendant which contains a picture of her real family. He states that Brendan, who did not trust Sonia the whole time, met with one of her family's housekeepers, who apparently wept with joy upon hearing of Nino's safety, and she gave him the pendant. She plans on cherishing it, and then says her farewells to Jan, believing that she will see him again someday.
In the morning following this, the lords's group finds themselves ensued in a large battle against Black Fang members, who are either led by Lloyd or Linus, Nino's step-brothers. They are both out to seek revenge against the ones who had killed the other, but Nino, upon finding out that the army of Black Fang members is led by one of her beloved step-brothers, plans on meeting up with them to make amends. However, this is unsuccessful in both of Lloyd's and Linus' cases. If Linus was defeated earlier, Nino can talk to Lloyd, and she will try to persuade him to stop fighting, saying that Eliwood is not a bad person at all. However, Lloyd claims that they were his brother's enemies, and that is why he plans on avenging him. He then says that Nino must live for the future, revealing that even in this situation, Lloyd never stopped caring for her.[8] While Lloyd will attack all other members of the player's army, including his former comrade Legault, he will not attack Nino. On the other hand, Nino's meeting with Linus turns out worse; Nino will also beg him to reconsider his attack, but in response, Linus angrily states that he will kill anyone who aids the group who had "killed" Lloyd, and this includes Nino.[9] After the battle is over, a devastated Nino is shown mourning over the death of her brothers, with Jaffar standing next to her.
During the final battle, Nergal summons morphs that resemble Brendan, Lloyd, Linus, Uhai, Ursula, Darin, Jerme, and Kenneth. If Nino fights Brendan's, Lloyd's, or Linus' morphs, she will be saddened by the fact that their deaths would have to be revisited. Upon coming face to face with the man who ordered the death of her family and had caused the end of the Black Fang, she shows a display of rage against Nergal, swearing that she will avenge them all in the battle.
Post-game
Upon the destruction of Nergal and his plans, Nino is invited to live in a small village in Pherae from Eliwood; her ending also outlines her intentions to visit "a certain cemetery", to either visit the graves of her true family or that of her adopted family. Similar events occur if she gets a paired ending with either Erk or Jaffar; both endings, however, end in tragedy for both the husband and wife. In the former, Nino abandons her family to protect them after bounty hunters try to seek her out because of her former ties to the Black Fang; in the latter, Nino disappears after she tries to find Jaffar after he flees bounty hunters seeking the famed Angel of Death.
In all three endings, she gives birth to the twins Lugh and Raigh, both of whom are usable in the previous game of the series, Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade. Both are also magic users, and the former twin also inherits his mother's anima magic skills, as well as her upbeat personality. Nino herself is absent in the game; both Lugh and Raigh were raised in an orphange in Araphen, and as stated in a support conversation between Melady and Lugh, Nino is deceased at the start of the game.[10] The specifics of her death, however, are not mentioned.

Analysis
This character analysis section may not be accurate to every player's experience. |
Nino falls into the Est archetype. With only a few more chapters to go, as well as the player having an army consisting almost entirely of promoted or near-promoted units at that point of the game, Nino initially comes grossly underpowered as a level 5 mage with low bases; despite this low starting level and availability, her growths are the highest in the game, and as such, she will likely end up as one of the player's most powerful units at the end of the game if she is trained up. In particular, she is almost guaranteed to max most of her stats except for HP and defense as a level 20 Sage, owing to all of her growths except defense and luck are either 50% or higher.
Despite her high potential, Nino is not flawless. Owing to her late availability, Nino requires considerable effort to raise, due to her inability to defeat most enemies on her own at first. This is especially a problem in the hard difficulties, due to an abundance of flying enemies that can bypass most units and attack Nino directly, with the wyvern riders in Chapter 26x/28x: Night of Farewells potentially defeating Nino in one hit. Nino's presence is also particularly harmful to ranked runs, as chapters will require more turns to complete as to allow Nino to gain experience. Her inability to defeat units on her own and the fact that enemies also often have to be weakened before she can do lethal damage improves the experience rating, but can also adversely harm the player's combat ranking. Enemies in The Blazing Blade are generally weak enough where most units will be able to one-round, so Nino's great stats won't stand out that much. Her physical durability is also poor, so even when trained up she is not an especially strong enemy phase fighter.
In addition, Nino has the dubious distinction of having the lowest constitution in the game; she starts with 3 in the stat as a mage, and this only increases to 4 upon promotion. As such, even the basic Fire tome reduces her attack speed as a mage, and, notably, wielding Excalibur as a Sage reduces her speed by 9. The Elfire tome she joins with has a weight of 10, reducing her speed by 7 before promotion and leaving her at risk of getting doubled until her growths take effect, so it's best to give her lighter tomes so that she won't be slowed down as much. While Nino has a high chance of capping speed, it is still recommended she be given a Body Ring to reduce these significant reductions to her speed: with it, her constitution will go up to 5, so she won't be weighed down by Thunder when she's promoted.
Overall, despite her high potential, training up Nino is very difficult, and doesn't have enough pay off to be worth doing unless the player likes using a zero-to-hero character.

Personality
Nino, despite being neglected and spited by her foster mother on several occasions, has retained a sense of loving optimism and deep caring to those in need; in the former case, she speaks with her two foster brothers about how she hopes that she will do a good job in her next mission, with the two later remarking on this personality trait.[11] During this same mission, instead of finishing off Jaffar as required by the Fang's Judgement, Nino instead elects to nurse the assassin back to good health; while she is reprimanded by her patient, she refuses to go back on her decision and continues to nurse him back to health. In addition, upon meeting the shaman Canas, she expresses great joy upon being told that he will teach her how to read, and after learning to do so, she tells him to quickly return home after their travels are over so then he can spend more time with his infant son.[12] Nino continues her optimism with Merlinus; while initially called a "an imp with the face of an angel", Nino continues to stay with Merlinus in hopes of him warming up to her, which eventually does happen, to the point of Merlinus willingly taking the role as a replacement for Nino's own Uncle Jan.
Nino, however, is also very emotional with other characters in the player's army, especially on the subject of her foster family and herself. When speaking with Florina about her two foster brothers, Nino is reduced to tears when she believes the two will hate her because of how they ended up on opposite sides of the battlefield, despite Florina's best wishes.[13] Nino also shows this emotional side to fellow mage Erk; when told she has incredible talent at anima magic due to her inability to read, Nino bursts into tears, with the claim that no one has previously praised her in such a way.[14] Nino also show some cases of true anger; in early supports, Jaffar tells the young mage that he will always try to be her best friend, as well as never leave her side.[15] However, Jaffar later tells Nino that he can no longer remain her best friend, and the mage goes as far as to tell Jaffar that she hates him for breaking this promise, though it later turns out that Jaffar wants to be her lover instead of just a best friend.[16] In addition, in the game's last moments, Nino cries when fighting against some of the morphs of her family, sometimes asking for forgiveness from the emotionally inanimate morphs, but this sadness turns into rage when she fights against Nergal, whom she swears she will get her revenge on.

Analysis
This character analysis section may not be accurate to every player's experience. |
Nino is widely considered to one of, if not the, best purple card in the game. Her first skill allows her to topdeck the a card from the hand while healing the main character. This allows allies to hit opponents easier while grabbing extra copies of the main character for avoids. Her second skill, if the player chooses to run extra copies of Nino, allows her to draw a card for the cost of a single bond, which is almost always helpful. Her ability to allow allies to hit opponents more often, heal the main character, and allow the player to gain card advantage makes her a staple in most decks that run purple.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Nino appears as a support spirit.

Trivia
- In Nino and Merlinus's B support, in the English version Nino says "Now you're going to listen closely to old Merlinus here, because..." This statement was mistranslated. In the Japanese version Nino says "Now I'm going to listen closely to old Merlinus here, because..."
- As stated in their A support, it is possible that Canas is Nino's uncle by marriage; when showing a picture of her family to Canas, he notes how the name of Nino's mother, Iris, is identical to that of a sister of his wife. Furthermore, Canas has never met this sister, owing to her dying some time before the game starts. While Canas does note that Iris is "not an uncommon name", the two hold hope that they might be related.
- Nino's SpotPass team in Fire Emblem Awakening references Lloyd, Linus, and Jaffar; in addition to being composed of a swordmaster, hero, and assassin, the swordmaster has a Levin Sword to reference Lloyd's use of the Light Brand, the assassin has a Killing Edge to reference Jaffar's starting inventory, and the hero comes with a Silver Sword and a Hand Axe, to emulate Linus's morph wielding both a Brave Sword and a Tomahawk in the final chapter of Fire Emblem.
- Nino's presence as a Level 10 mage in a team of promoted units also references her low starting level in Fire Emblem.

Legault: Well, for one thing, I'm still in my twenties. I'm not much older than Lloyd or Linus.
