Nina! Nina is Niles's kid, and she's an Outlaw too. She is a little different from Niles, at least with her default growths - her physical bulk, skill, and speed are all lower, but she's stronger both physically and magically and her luck's much better than his. You can either give her a magical mother and make her an Adventurer and your best candidate for the Shining Bow, or you can go all in on her strength and make her a Bow Knight or something else physical. Her bulk is quite terrible by default however so she can't quite take advantage of the Shining Bow's 1-2 range when she really doesn't want to take physical attacks up close.

Otherwise... I guess most of what I said about Niles applies to her? She can't capture units, but if you don't care about that then her personal skill is a straight up improvement. Daydream's a bit hard to use, but it's not impossible to take advantage of. Hopefully I can make use of it while building supports between Kaze and Silas?

Having Mozu as a mum and inheriting Aptitude means she'll have better growths than almost anyone else in my army. My original plan was to make her an Archer until I realised she does't actually inherit that from her, so instead I'm going to try making her a Merchant as soon as she promotes. It's a bulky class with great strength that should make up for all her shortcomings without lowering her speed too much.

If Nyx is Nina's mother then the overlap between her and Niles's classes will result in Nina instead getting the Diviner class, which is Hoshidan exclusive. Nyx!Nina will be incredibly fragile and would still probably prefer to use the Shining Bow as an Adventurer rather than tomes, but it's still a neat thing you can do if you want.

My Rating: I swear one of her eyes is bigger than the other
