This is the Hundred-and-thirty-seventh week of using the "Perfect Anime Girl Sheet". Notice: This Blog may contain Unmarked Spoilers.

Well, sorry for the lateness folks. I had to meet with some people, but I'm back! Anyway, as I said last week, I'm going to be doing Video Game characters this month. Many people were wondering what game I was talking about last week, but here it comes...



Yep, I was talking about the turn-based strategy game Fire Emblem. And well, while I've gotten better (I've been playing it a lot more now that I have in quite sometime), I'm nowhere near confident in my abilities. But anyway, let's get on to Nephenee.

Head
Hair: Nephenee has somewhat long hair, reaching about her chest in the back. In Radiant Dawn, her hair reaches her hip (approximately), so she seems to have grown it out. It's a light green-ish blue color, which is pretty (though not for hair, I'd prefer it to be darker). The only problem with it is that she is always seen wearing her blue helmet, which while protective, isn't that attractive.
Grade: B

Eyes: She has soft gentle eyes. They match her hair color-wise, which fits well (I LOVE the color of her eyes, it fits eyes so well). As an oddity, in all the times we see her (official art and in game) we only see her left eye. Okay, you can see her right in animations, but the camera isn't close at those times, and it becomes hard to see.

Unfortunately, there are no meganekkos in Fire Emblem games. All ~12 of them....
Grade: B

Face: She has a very plain, but cute, soldier type face. A gritty, down-home face, is what I'm saying (not that I'm saying that in a bad way, of course). She doesn't wear make-up (unless you start to support her with Calil, a "upper class woman"), but she has a very natural beauty. She's even said to have a splendid face (though that's more informed than anything, no offense to Nephenee). Her smile is also said to be quite cute (with her smiling in at least 2 of her three A-rank supports). Again, the helmet covers part of her face often (though she's too shy to remove it, as everyone'll stare).
Grade: B

Body
Build: Nephenee's body seems pretty basic, but also a bit shapely. She has very long legs (and an outfit to show them off). She has narrow waist, which is always appreciate. She's also said to have a "fantastic" figure as well, but unfortunately her armor hides most of it. Overall, there's nothing wrong with her figure, she'd be the type of girl who a person would be attracted to and still have the ability to speak to.
Grade: B

Breasts: She's not flat (at least, I don't assume she is), but isn't exactly busty either. She's on the lower end of "average", but her armor yet again hides her true size.
Grade: C

Clothes: As I've said again and again, Nephenee's weakest point is that you can barely see her under her armor. We also only see her wearing it, so it's not like she appeals to other fetishes either. But then again, she was made to be effective in battle, not fashionable. Her armor (which for some odd reason is blue...) seems to be a breast plate protecting her, well, chest area. She also wears armored shoulder pads and greaves (though the greaves are replaced in Radiant Dawn by a nice pair of what seems to be thigh-high socks, a DEFINITE plus). She appears to be wearing an armored skirt, protecting the back of her legs with it (the armor is more obvious in RD, where the front of her outfit is black).

Being a Soldier/Halberdier/Sentinel, Nephenee can only wield Spears, and is always seen wielding one in official art. Upon promotion to Halberdier, she starts to wield a small shield, much like a buckler (this doesn't actually do anything, however). Once she promotes to Sentinel (Radiant Dawn only), she loses a lot of her outfit that made her attractive, including said zettai ryouiki. Her helmet becomes much more serious looking, and her entire body becomes armored (well, her main body anyway. Her face, legs, and parts of her arms are still uncovered), and starts to wield an almost tower shield sized shield.
Grade: C-

Mind
Personality: It's not everyday when a female game character is used by everyone just due to her massive abilities. And, unlike some other characters I won't name, "massive abilities" is not a euphemism for her breasts. Nephenee is legitimately one of the best recruits that you can get. Her speed and skill have EXCELLENT growths, rivaling swordmasters. That doesn't mean that's all she's good for, she's got great growths everywhere (well, except magic, but she won't be needing that for much). She's a very powerful front-line unit, and can definitely hold the line if needed. She also has a very good skill in Wraith, which increases her critical hit percentage by 50% when she's under 50% health (30% in Radiant Dawn). This is combined with the Halberdier's bonus 5% to crit (which turns into 10% upon becoming a Sentinel) and a Killer Lance (which gives an additional 30% by itself), she becomes a force of Lance-using Nature! Not only that, but the Sentinel's skill, Impale, randomly deals an attack that deals x4 damage that works well as the chance of it working is equal to her high Skill. In fact, Have a video of Nephenee utterly destroying a DRAGON. Unfortunately, she's not integral to the game plot, which means you shouldn't get her killed or something. You do get a good amount of time to train her, though, which is always useful.

No matter her in-game use, that's not the only reason I like Nephenee. She's a cute, shy character due to her "country" origins. She uses words like "ain't" and "reckon" and has a really deep accent, but really doesn't say much to others that aren't from a similar area. Her supports in Path of Radiance are either with a guy that lived in the same village (Brom), a "upper crust" woman I talked about earlier (Calil), and the other spearwielder, a silly guy obsessed with making her feel happy (Devdan). In Brom's supports, we find out that she's the oldest daughter (with two younger sisters and three younger brother triplets), and she doesn't care for war (though she'll join if it is to defend her country). She's also easily intimidated (by Devdan, mostly forcing her to smile by telling her things like "You had better start to smile more... Or else!"). She's adorable though! She's especially kind and caring, and when mixed with her shyness makes for a wonderful character.
Grade: A

Libido: Unfortunately, unlike many Fire Emblem characters, there is no canon guy who pairs up with Nephenee. She's also not really shipped with anyone. Well, excluding the fact that a Rogue named Heather in Radiant Dawn has shown interest in her, though that's more of a running joke than anything (Heather is the type who would take advantage of a guy financially).
Grade: C+

Age: Her age is unknown, but she seems teenage. Because three years pass between Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn, I'm assuming she's between 17 and 19 in the second game. As I can't be sure, though, I'll keep her score a bit low.
Grade: B+

Total Grades: 67
Average score: 7.4
Final Grade: B-

Man, this one's late. I apologize for it not being a "well-known" character either (though anyone who has played the two Fire Emblem games she's in definitely know who she is).
