== Backstory ==
According to the "Lightsworn" lore, Minerva is a young mage in the midst of her apprenticeship, accompanied by her white owl familiar. Though she is still inexperienced in the ways of magic. She has wings as-white-as-snow that show she'll one day become a guardian angel.
In line with this lore, this monster eventually becomes "Minerva, the Exalted Lightsworn", as shown in the artwork of "Lightsworn Sanctuary". [1]
== Gameplay ==
To fighting game purists, Minerva's moveset can be described as a hybrid of Palutena from Smash Bros and Nakoruru from Samurai Shodown: a largely keepaway based style of play combined with a unique flight special. She even has a special counter that has her switch sides with an opponent when successful, which can be useful for trapping foe's in the corner or escaping the corner herself. However, her biggest weaknesses include her relatively low vitality and her subpar close combat game. Plus, if an opponent blocks her specials up close, she opens herself up to a wide variety of punishment.
