Nagi

Nagi is a Lancer who can be hired as an adventurer.

Nagi is well-mannered, kind and a great cook, but has the worst sense of direction in the entire world. She's first seen roaming aimlessly through dungeons without even realizing she entered one. Once she manages to leave the place, she becomes a regular at Recettear and gives Recette her card since she's aware that, eventually, she'll lose her way and end up in another dungeon anyway.

Charme notes that Nagi is much more intelligent than she seems. It's also mentioned that she's from a country far to the east and it's implied that she ended up in Pensee through an incredibly long series of wrong turns.

Information

In-game Description

Recruitment

Nagi can be found randomly during dungeon trips after the 9th day. The current adventurer should collide with her so the dialogue starts.
After speaking with Nagi inside a dungeon four times, she will start appearing in the shop.
The second time she visits the shop, she will give her Business Card to Recette.

Attributes

Nagi is a bit tricky to use since her standard attack has no arc, but with a bit of practice she can be quite powerful. She's a strong substitute for those who enjoy Charme's speed, but don't like how fragile she can be.

Movement

Nagi moves with average speed. She swings and recovers at a slightly below-average rate.

Attack

Nagi strikes with great power and with a very long reach, but has no arc. The active area of her attack is thicker than you might think, but is still rather precise. It's possible to cancel her attack into skills, but this requires a bit of timing.

Defense

Nagi has a slightly above-average defense and a solid amount of Hit Points. Since she can equip shields, her defense can be much higher than other adventurers in her armor class. Her superior range enables her to dispatch most enemies long before their attacks are able to reach her.

Run

Nagi can run by double tapping a direction. She can strafe while running, but cannot change direction. If Nagi hits an enemy with the spear while running, she does a little damage to it, and jumps back a step, but does not fall over.

Block

Nagi will automatically block ranged physical attacks, like the nuts thrown by Gnolls, if she faces them head-on. This ability becomes useless in later dungeons, as most ranged monsters begin using magical attacks.

Skills

Nagi's skills round her out tremendously and her solid amount of SP means that you don't need to be as cautious with their use as, say, with Louie.

Flame Charge

Nagi bathes her lance in flame and charges forth!

Level: Already learned.
Cost: 5 SP
Quickly charge forward, dealing below-average damage to all in her way.

Useful for breaking away from monsters that have surrounded her.

Hundred Thrusts

Nagi thrusts with the spear faster than the eye can see!

Level: Already learned.
Cost: 8 SP
Attacks all enemies in front of her many times over, knocking them back. The damage from several hits adds up quickly and kills most monsters in one go.

It cannot be canceled once it starts, so it should be used only when there are no enemies flanking her.

Spin Slash

Slash while spinning about. Nagi's spear gives this good range.

Level: 20.
Cost: 10 SP
A circular slash similar to Louie's, but has a longer radius and deals less damage.

Vacuum Spear

Nagi rips open a hole in the air and fires it forward as a wave.

Level: 30.
Cost: 5 SP
A projectile with wide breadth and long range that deals superior damage.

Trivia

Nagi may be modeled after the character Isumi Saginomiya from the popular manga/anime series Hayate no Gotoku!! as they both have an abysmal sense of direction, similar dress, and conceal tremendous powers while appearing air-headed. Incidentally, Nagi also has the same name as the female lead of the series.
The skill Hundred Thrusts' icon looks similar to Vocaloid mascot Hatsune Miku.
