Role

Nifl is a Heroes-original character, and there are two different variations of her available to Heroes. The normal variation of Nifl first appeared as an enemy unit in the 43rd Tempest Trials+ event, and was later made playable in the Echoes of Truth update, becoming available for summoning by players on July 19, 2021; this variation of Nifl is the first Heroes-original character introduced outside Book II to become part of the game's normal summoning pool. A summer variation of Nifl was made available between the period of July 7, 2022 through August 7, 2022 as part of the summoning event surrounding the launch of the Taken by the Tide update.

Nifl: God of Ice
       
Here's Nifl, the god of ice. Her name probably sounds familiar to you, and that's because she's the creator of the kingdom of ice that shares her name! The people of the kingdom look to her for strength and guidance. True to her domain, Nifl's demeanor is as cool as ice, and she abhors change, instead preferring things that persist eternally. She sees tranquility as an unchanging constant, and desires peace over war and conflict. That does beg the question of why she's been in conflict with Múspell, the god of flame, for so long! Well, just as Nifl desires peace, Múspell hungers for war… So I guess there's no room for compromise there. In order to save her kingdom, Fjorm sacrificed her life to the Rite of Frost to receive Nifl's power and restore peace to the realm. I just hope it really will last forever…
