Nina

Nina is Claymore No. 9 of the current generation.

Appearance
Nina wears her pale hair in a long ponytail and sweeps her entire fringe to the left side of her face. She wears the standard Claymore uniform.

Personality
Nina is a cold and harsh woman, immediately disliking Clarice because of her colored hair. She had no problem leaving Clarice behind during the battle, declaring her as useless. She is a skilled tactician but questionable strategist. She has complete faith in her abilities, shown when she closes her eyes after activating her "Shadow Hunter."

Shadow Hunter
Nina uses her special attack, named "Shadow Hunter." Her blade tracks the yoki of her opponent until the yoki is extinguished. The move can only be stopped by directly attacking Nina.

Employment as a Claymore
Nina is assigned as captain of an Awakened Being Hunting Party stationed in the northern region of Alphonse. This party hunts proactively, unlike the usual party for paying clients only.

In Dabi, Nina complains when Clarice turns up late, that her rank is only No. 47. And about Clarice's dark hair, proof to Nina that Clarice failed to fully transform into a Claymore. She calls Clarice a "failed creation."

Up in the mountains, Nina and the party engage an Awakened Being. Nina almost kills it using her special attack (Scene 65).

But more Awakened Beings attack and the party is overwhelmed. They all go down unconscious. Then the Beings are attacked by unseen adversaries. When Clarice awakes, she finds herself and her comrades surrounded by patches of blood-soaked ground. As she walks about, her rescuers, five of the Seven Ghosts—Miria, Cynthia, Deneve, Helen and Tabitha—watch Clarice unseen from the hills above.

Later in the south, Rachel jokes that Nina and the party were saved by ghosts from the Northern Campaign.

Nina is removed from the north by Rimuto and replaced with No. 7, Anastasia.
