Appearance
Nyra has short wavy gray hair, green eyes, gray skin, and pointy ears. She wears a blue cloak with a golden collar and golden buttons.

Personality
Lady Nyra is much more agreeable than Baroness Isador. When Mal says that if Nyra and Isador travel to the Light Realm they will wreck havoc, Nyra says that she had her fill of fighting and war these last few centuries, and that she has no interest in conflict. If asked why she joined the Dreadlord, she says that she was curious and wanted to know all the secrets of the world.

Background
Nyra was of an elf noble of lower birth, but rose to prominence due to her magical aptitude. They called her a prodigy.

Your Character
You and your group encounter Baroness Isador and Lady Nyra in Book 2, Chapter 6, and the two of you fight, until Aerin stops both of you and suggests working together. When Willow says that they want to bring seeds back to the Light Realm, Isador and Nyra suggest using magic to age the trees, in exchange for safe passage to the Light Realm. Aerin then suggests trying to talk to them and to earn their respect, and if you do, you gain them as allies with the potential of aiding you later.

Duchess Xenia
Nyra was never fond of Xenia, as she believed that Xenia was shockingly ignorant for someone who pretended to know everything.
