History Characters / FireEmblemHeroesNifl

->'''Voiced by:''' Anairis Quiñones (English)\\

* ArmorPiercingAttack: Her Frostfire Breath has the standard effect of post-2.0.0 Breath weapons, where it allows her to target the lower defensive stat of her foe during combat if they wield a ranged weapon.

* JackOfAllStats: All of Fjorm's stats are good, with none of them going below 30 at Neutral Assets. While this means she gets outclassed by some more specialized units, it makes Fjorm a reliable unit for most situations. Since she's summonable from Legendary Hero banners, she can also be merged, and at +10 all of her stats are 35 or higher. With Dragonflowers thrown into the equation, she almost can reach 40 in all stats as well, and thanks to her flexible stat line, can be adjusted skill wise to fit any build relatively well.

* PowerUpLetdown: The unique refine for her Leiptr allows her to gain +4 Atk/Spd/Def/Res during combat, as well as ignore any field stat debuffs she has during combat, and grant an additional +4 Def/Res during combat if her foe initiates combat, all if she is at 25% HP or above at the start of combat. While the +4 Atk/Spd/Def/Res and additional +4 Def Res is great, the ignoring any field stat debuffs is a problem, as it does not synergize with her Atk/Def Unity, where she gains +5 Atk/Def during combat as well as additional Atk and Def during combat equal to double the amount of the value of the debuff on each stat, and since most sources of debuffs usually inflict -7 on stats, this means that she misses out on +10 Atk/Def if the ignoring field stat buffs wasn't there, even though it will remove the possible -7 on her Spd and Res as well.

* FighterMageThief: The Mage of the Nifl royal family. She is a SquishyWizard with high Atk and low Def, and she can gain even more Atk during combat with [[WeaponOfChoice her default tome Blizzard]] the more her opponent is debuffed. Blizzard can grant Gunnthrá up to ''28 attack'' if the enemy has -7 Atk/Spd/Def/Res with Chill skills and dagger debuffs before combat. Gunnthrá also has her default B-skill Chilling Seal, which inflicts -6 Atk/Spd on the foe (or potentially, ''foes'') with the lowest Def in their team if she is at 50% HP or more, as well her other B-skill Chilling Seal II inflicting -7 Atk/Spd/Def/Res on the foe (or potentially ''foes'') with the lowest Def in their team, as well as inflict -7 Atk/Res to all foes within 2 spaces of that unit of the start of her turn, and in turn contributes to the combat buffs granted by Blizzard.

* GlassCannon: She has high Atk and Spd, average HP, but low Def and Res.

[[folder:Nifl]]

* BalanceBuff: In update 5.2.0, she gains Ice Mirror II and Atk/Def Unity, which are stronger versions of Ice Mirror and Atk/Def Bond 3 she has by default.
* BladeOnAStick: She wields the lance Leiptr, which can counterattack distant enemies.

* DamageReduction: Her Special, Ice Mirror, reduces damage from ranged attacks by 30% upon activation. This is bolstered by her default B skill Shield Pulse, which further reduces damage received by 5.

** Her Regular variant wields Leiptr, which can counterattack regardless of range.

* BalanceBuff: In update 5.5.0, she gains Chilling Seal II, which is stronger than her Chilling Seal, as well as Atk/Res Solo 4.

* SpellBook: Her personal tome Blizzard gives her +3 Res and boosts her Atk equal to the foe's combined stat penalties.

** She has Blizzard, which gives her +3 Res and grants her Atk equal to the total stat penalties on her foe during combat. Combined with her Chilling Seal (II) and some Ploys, this has the potential to hurt ''a lot''.

[[caption-width-right:350:God of Ice]]

'''Class:''' Cavalry Blue Breath

* CannotSpitItOut: Fjorm is hinted to have some sort of attraction to...someone(heavily hinted to be the Summoner). Her Bridal variant is all dressed up, but even then, she can't bring herself to even say who she loves, making this a case of TheUnreveal as well.

** Her Special skill Ice Mirror, her unique special, in addition to reducing damage from distant enemies by 30%, it also increases the power of her next attack based on how much damage was reduced.
** Her updated Special skill Ice Mirror II, her other unique special, in addition to reducing damage from distant enemies by 40%, it also increases the power of her next attack based on 40% of her Res.

* JackOfAllStats: All of Fjorm's stats are good, with none of them going below 30 at Netural Assets. While this means she gets outclassed by some more specialized units, it makes Fjorm a reliable unit for most situations. Since she's summonable from Legendary Hero banners, she can also be merged, and at +10 all of her stats are 35 or higher. With Dragonflowers thrown into the equation, she almost can reach 40 in all stats as well, and thanks to her flexible stat line, can be adjusted skill wise to fit any build relatively well.

* MageKiller: While her stats are rather well-balanced, the combination of high Res, a special skill that reduces damage from ranged attacks and increases the damage of her next attack, and a weapon with built-in Distant Counter makes her most suited for this role. With the addition of the Distant Def Skill/Sacred Seal, she can take almost no damage from Red Mages and Blue Mages, and with her special Ice Mirror and Ice Mirror II, can even survive attacks from very strong Green Mages, especially if she has a Res Asset

* LightningBruiser: Her New Year's variant has great Spd and good Atk, average defenses, but below average HP.

* MightyGlacier: He has great Atk and Def at 37 and 36, respectively, average HP at 41, but below average Res of 26 and poor Spd of 17 by default. Fortunately, Gjöll helps patch up his Spd weakness by granting him guaranteed follow-ups on debuffed foes, while also denying his foe's follow-up attacks.

* JackOfAllStats: All of Fjorm's stats are good, with none of them going below 30. While this means she gets outclassed by some more specialized units, it makes Fjorm a reliable unit for most situations. Since she's summonable from Legendary Hero banners, she can also be merged, and at +10 can easily be a MasterOfAll.

* MageKiller: While her stats are rather well-balanced, the combination of high Res, a special skill that reduces damage from ranged attacks and increases the damage of her next attack, and a weapon with built-in Distant Counter makes her most suited for this role. With the addition of the Distant Def Skill/Sacred Seal, she can take almost no damage from Red Mages and Blue Mages, and with her special Ice Mirror and Ice Mirror II, can even survive attacks from very strong Green Mages.

** Her default Special skill is Glacies, which is a 4 special cooldown special that boost her damage equal to 80% of her Res during combat. Additionally, while Blizzard is classified as a Wind tome, it's a Wind tome that conjures a blizzard.

* FighterMageThief: The Mage of the Nifl royal family. She is a SquishyWizard with high attack and low defense, and she can gain even more attack during combat with [[WeaponOfChoice her default tome Blizzard]] the more her opponent is debuffed. Blizzard can grant Gunnthrá up to ''28 attack'' if the enemy has -7 Atk/Spd/Def/Res with Chill skills and dagger debuffs before combat. Gunnthrá also has her default B-skill Chilling Seal, which inflicts -6 Atk/Spd on the enemy (or potentially, ''enemies'') with the lowest defense if she has 50% HP or more, and in turn contributes to the combat buffs granted by Blizzard.

** Gunnthrá's Atk and Spd are good, but her HP and Res are average while her Def is poor.

* HolidayMode: Her New Year's variant wears a kimono with a katana made out of ice, while her Summer variant wears a bikini wielding coconut drinks. She notes the outfit is more bold than what she's usually used to.

* ActionInitiative: His Gjöll allows him to have a guarnateed follow-up attack and deny any of the foe's follow-up attacks if at the start of combat the foe has a penalty inflicted on them, such as a stat debuff or the Panic status effect.

* MightyGlacier: He has great Atk and Def at 37 and 36, respectively, average HP at 41, but below average Res of 26 and poor Spd of 17 by default. Fortunately, Gjöll helps patch up his Spd weakness by granting him guaranteed follow-ups on debuffed foes, while denying their own.

* TakingYouWithMe: Implied with [[spoiler:his actions to assassinate Surtr after Nifl has fallen. If it gets down to it, he'll even sacrifice himself to ensure Surtr's death. However, at the time, Múspellflame was still active, so Hríd was burned and forced to retreat, with his actions in vain until he met Zacharias afterwards.]]

* WeaponOfChoice: Gjöll grants him +3 Atk and he gets a guaranteed follow-up attack and prevents the enemy from performing any follow-up attacks if they are inflicted with a negative status effect, such as Panic or stat reductions.

** Her New Year's seasonal variant good Atk and Spd at 35 each at default, naturally accessible skills for getting bonuses to both, a weapon with built-in Spd debuff for the fastest enemy unit at the start of her turn, but has average HP at 39 and lackluster defensive stats at default 20 Def and 21 Res.

* AnIcePerson: She is a Legendary Hero of Water. Additionally, Fjorm can control ice in combat, and uses it to protect herself from damage with her Ice Mirror ability.

* MageKiller: While her stats are rather well-balanced, the combination of high Resistance, a special skill that reduces damage from ranged attacks and returns a percentage of the reduced damage, and a weapon with built-in Distant Counter makes her most suited for this role. With the addition of the Distant Defense Skill/Sacred Seal, she can take almost no damage from Red Mages and Blue Mages, and with her special Ice Mirror, can even survive attacks from very strong Green Mages.

** Her regular variant has Atk/Def Bond, which gives her +5 Atk/Def during combat if she is adjacent to an ally.

* CounterAttack: Her [[WeaponOfChoice personal lance]], Leiptr, allows her to counterattack distant enemies, which is complimented by her Special skill Ice Mirror, a unique skill in that, in addition to reducing damage from distant enemies, it also increases the power of her next attack based on how much damage was reduced.

* SecretArt: Her exclusive skill Ice Mirror, when activated, reduces damage from a ranged foe's attack by 30%, and increases the power of her next attack by the amount of damage reduced.

* VocalEvolution: Creator/CarrieKeranen initially gives Gunnthrá a deep vocal range to highlight her motherly and caring nature, but her variants released afterwards give her voice a higher pitch as a way to emphasize that Gunnthrá is Hríd's younger sister, where she was initially presumed to be the eldest, as well as giving her a more expressive personality, especially during the seasonal events she was released in.

** He also has Atk Smoke, which it inflict -7 Atk on enemies within 2 spaces of the target after combat.

* MageKiller: Not as much as Fjorm, but with a boost to his Rese he can become this. Special mention to his base variant for having a base of 26 Res. Most sword cavalries are lucky enough if their resistance are in the early 20's.
* MightyGlacier: He has great Atk and Def at 37 Atk and 36 Def, average HP 41, but below average Res of 26 and poor Spd of 17 by default. Fortunately, Gjöll helps patch up his Spd weakness by granting him guaranteed follow-ups on debuffed foes, while denying their own.

** Her default C-skill is Res Ploy, which lowers the Resistance of all enemies in cardinal directions of her with less Resistance than her. Gunnthrá also has her signature B-skill Chilling Seal, which drops the Speed (and Attack) of the enemy with the lowest Defense through their next action, so long as she has at least 50% HP remaining at the start of her turn.

* {{Stripperiffic}}: Her Summer variant's damaged art has her sarong actually come off her waste, fully exposing her bikini bottom. Even compared to most other Summer units, Gunnthra's damaged art shows off a huge amount of skin.

** Her exclusive Green tome Blizzard, which passively boosts her Resistance and grants her additional in-combat attack equal to the total penalties on her foe. Combined with her Chilling Seal and some Ploys, this has the potential to hurt ''a lot''.

* MageKiller: Not as much as Fjorm, but with a boost to his resistance he can become this. Special mention to his base variant for having a base of 26 resistance. Most sword cavalries are lucky enough if their resistance are in the early 20's.
* MightyGlacier: He has high Attack and Defense at 37 Atk and 36 Def, decent Resistance and HP at 26 and 41, respectively, but very low speed, being a measly ''17'' by default. Fortunately, Gjöll helps patch up his Speed weakness by granting him guaranteed follow-ups on debuffed foes, while denying their own.

* SecretArt: Freezing Seal is exclusive to him, which inflicts -6 Atk/Spd at the start of his turn if he has 50% HP or more on the enemy with the lowest Resistance. It's identical to his sister Gunnthrá's SecretArt except for the fact that it targets the lowest-Res enemy rather than the lowest-Def one.

* ZettaiRyouiki: Type A. Much like Sharena, Fjorm's leg armor goes up to her thighs.

* AmbiguouslyBi: She's heavily implied to be in love with Kiran, [[PurelyAestheticGender who can be male or female or anything in-between ]].
