Near the end of the Night of Bloodtear, Silvenia used [Fantastic Polymorph] to transform Nerry into a six-inch Erin Solstice. With help from the Fraerlings of Paeth, Nerry can shift between Fraerling and Human heights, though she requested her height to be slightly adjusted to six feet.[1] In her Lucifen Warform, her hair is longer and black, with a pair of curled ram horns sprouting from her head. She has goat legs, with thin, black hair. Her teeth are pointed, while her eyes are slitted.[2] |
Personality[edit | edit source]
Behind her cute and charming behavior, Nerry has extreme contempt and hatred towards people, to the point that Erin remarked that "Crelers are nicer" than the Sariant Lamb.[3] On her better days, she is disdainful and takes dark pleasure in the suffering of others.[4] She has tremendous resolve, evident by her willingness to self-asphyxiate as a tactic to prevent Erin and the others from sending her back to Riverfarm.[3] Furthermore, she is courageous and has gone into battles despite her small stature. Nerry is very resourceful, being able to build a harness mechanism to aim and control two wands, despite lacking hands or the ability to hold things.[5] She is highly knowledgeable about certain subjects in Innworld on par with an Opener, such as various [Spy] tactics or knowing about the immortals of Ailendamus. She presumably has access to the Sariant Lamb's network, who have agents imbedded as "pets" along the side of rulers and royal families.[6]
In a world where Sariant Lambs are considered adorable pets at best and food at worse, Nerry lives in constant danger from almost everything. While she regularly utilizes her cute appearance as a manipulation tactic, Nerry despises being thought of as "cute," and is extremely bitter over her physical frailness. She is determined to fulfill the Trials of Levelling and help her species become recognized as a people, even if it means her death.[7]
Nerry has a habit of defecating pellets after eating or when startled, which she is embarrassed about.[8]

Nerry is shown to be excellent at subterfuge, successfully maintaining her cover as "Erin Solstice" to the entire world. She is highly intelligent, being able to out-match Paxere in negotiations, despite having only been speaking the common language for only a month (which either speaks to her adaptability or the power of Silvenia's magic). While Nerry relished her new body and abilities, she expressed guilt towards the real Erin Solstice for stealing her identity.[9] |

Lucifen Warform: After Nerry and Paxere made a contract, exchanging pieces of their souls, Nerry gained the ability to transform into a Warform. In this state, she is stronger, being able to send an armored Gorgon flying with a kick, leaving a dent in the shape of a hoofprint in the armor. Her Authority is "charisma."
Mana Circuits: Nerry has "below-average" mana circuits in her body, thanks to regularly imbibing mana potions.[4] |

After the releases of Chapter 10.06 and Chapter 10.07, rumors and theories began to spread in the fandom and Discord that the Erin Solstice who appeared in those chapters was a transformed Nerry. Chapter 10.08 (Pt. 2) revealed that the Erin Solstice who had appeared up to that point in Volume 10 was not the real one, with Chapter 10.18 E confirming that she was in fact Nerry. |
