In the beginning of Chapter 3, Neimi approaches [[Eirika]] and [[Seth]] as the two discuss the state of Renais. She mistakes their army for a band of mercenaries, and tearfully requests help. She explains that she was from a village called Lark, which was burned down by Bazba's Bandits. The citizens were all killed except for her and Colm, who escaped just in time. Colm went to steal back something the bandits had stolen from Neimi, and she asks Eirika to help him, as she believes it is too dangerous.

Neimi, as typical of a GBA-era [[Archer]], has bad base stats. Her offensive growths are great, but her bow lock limits her experience gain. Her defenses are consistently bad, and when combined with her inability to counter at 1 range, she has a horrible enemy phase performance. She can only use D level [[Bow]]s at base, but with the [[Steel Bow]]'s rarity early on and weight, she is effectively locked to [[Iron Bow]]s for quite a while, further compounding her poor offense. She does have a quick Colm support to boost her offensive parameters, but this does not completely alleviate her issues (especially her speed), and it only helps when Colm can be near her and is deployed.
 
Neimi is the only user of the Orion's Bolt. While it does sell for a hefty price, Neimi is still the only unit who can use it, thus meaning she has no competition for it. She is also one of only two units who will always wield bows, with Innes being the other. However, Innes requires significantly less investment than Neimi, and his base A-rank in bows means that he has better access to strong bows than her. Neimi will become stronger than him, but bow users are not in high demand, and Innes is usually good enough.
 
As with all unpromoted units that are not the [[Lord]]s, Neimi has two promotion options, but for her there is not much of a choice, as [[Ranger]] is a much better choice for her than [[Sniper]]. Ranger gives her more movement, [[Canto]], and access to [[Sword]]s, allowing her to counter on enemy phase (albeit only at 1 range). Sniper does have [[Sure Strike]], but it rarely makes a difference because she rarely has accuracy issues, and even when she faces shaky hit rates it has too low of an activation rate to be useful unless she is of a high level. Sniper does have higher strength and gives a better boost to her bow rank, and Ranger does possess a weakness to horse slaying weapons and cannot use ballistae, but these advantages are not as significant as Ranger's advantages.
 
Overall, due to her lack of 1-2 range–or even 1 range when she is not a Ranger–as well as poor base stats and poor defense, Neimi is generally not great.

==Personality and character==
==Personality==
Neimi is very sensitive and cries very often and very easily, especially when in just slight distress and when talking to Colm, who is quite harsh with her. She is originally from a village called Lark, which was burnt down by Bazba's Bandits, the citizens killed and their home destroyed. After the chapter ends, the two both join Eirika's army. Neimi is respectful to others, shown in her conversations.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* There is a typo in Neimi and Gilliam's A Support. Neimi talks about Cormag when instead she should be referring to Colm. This error was caused due to Cormag being written similar to "Coma", which is Colm's Japanese name.

* In the [[Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones prototype|May 31, 2004 build of ''Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones'']], Neimi was named {{hl|メアリ|Meari}} ''Mary''. A relic of this is that her character palettes are labeled "mer" in the game data.
*Similar to [[Dorothy]] from {{FE6}}, Neimi's battle sprites show her wearing a skirt despite not wearing one.
