Nyra

Paladin Nyra Ridaan, is the chief Paladin aboard the Righteous Fallen and acts as Major Luthor Kaen's second in command, both on and off the battlefield. As a paladin she is both medic and templar historian, enabling her to dispense additional information before your squad departs on its next campaign.

Your first of many encounters with Nyra is the Rychart Prime mission: Patrol Route. Throughout the campaign you will have multiple encounters with Nyra, due to her position of being second in command and thereby permitting her to oversee important events or go exploring. In the missions where she is present, it is unlikely you will need to select your own customised paladin.

In Battle
Sometimes you will only know Nyra is joining your party on deployment, other times you will find out from the mission briefing area or cut scene at the end of a mission. In all cases you will be unable to remove her from your party or alter any of Nyra's skills, attributes, talents or gear; you can however inspect everything once she has been deployed. Nyra behaves as a paladin who specialises in supporting templars who favour close combat, being equipped with the best sword and then shield her experience level will allow. Her experience level will always be comparable to that of your own captain, with Nyra's attributes and skills focused on surviving close combat whilst healing (fortitude, strength, warrior & medic). Her talents will always be Slay, Battlefield Medic, Inspiration and Warding Fire. The focus is primarily on slay and battlefield medic, with inspiration receiving fewer ranks of improvement and warding fire remaining at level 1 regardless of her level.

A point to bear in mind is that due to the temporary membership of her in your squad, all of her kills are removed when calculating the reward for your kill/turn ratio. The mission complete screen will show an initial ratio, but your mission record will have all of her kills omitted and the rewards you actually receive will be equivalent to the the result of this new ratio.

''e.g. 52 kills in 10 turns, with 5 killing blows belonging to Nyra. The ratio of 5.2 awards +8%, but without her kills the ratio is 4.7 which rewards +6%. Thus, you will be rewarded +6%.''
