Biography

Personality

History

Early life

Though she was introduced in Dragon Quest Ⅳ, little is known about her life and personality in the game's entire story. It would be in Torneko's own spin-off games that we would discover what happened to her and her family after the event of the aforementioned game.

Nina met Torneko for the first time in Surene, now Zalenagrad and one of many locations in Dragon Quest Ⅳ, after a disagreement with her ex-husband, going as far as to throw his weapon and strangle Torneko after he explained it was not possible to return the weapon. This eventful first meeting led to Torneko and Nina falling in love later on and got married before the events of Dragon Quest Ⅳ.[2]
