**Nieva Viburnum** (ニーバガマズミ, *Nieba Gamazumi*) is the main character of ***White Clover***. She is a young orphan who is raised under the care of a church called Hage after she finds herself in an unknown place, once she turns 15-years-old, Nieva recedes a unique white clover grimore and joins Asta and Yuno on their journey.

## **Appearance**

Nieva is a 15-year-old girl with a petite but slender build and chocolate brown eyes. She possesses long, dark blue-colored hair which is usually let out, with shaggy bangs on the center of her forehead and is swifted slightly to the right. Additionally, she wears long earrings that were from her unknown mother and wears them throughout the series and manga. Nieva can wear her hair in different hairstyles, either in ponytails or pigtails, maybe even a long braid though she cuts her hair at a chin-length level since it would be difficult in battle to have it longer but also cuts it to show her growth.

## **Personality**

Nieva was first introduced to be a quiet, reserved, and thoughtful individual. She didn’t seek out special attention or social engagements, as these events could make her a bit uncomfortable and drained. Though she becomes more polite and independent, she has a mind of her own. It is because of this quality that her beliefs and principles are well-rooted and cannot be easily swayed by the opinions of others. Any decision she takes is based on either what is right and not on the expectations or judgements of society.

Nieva tends to have an open mind and loves to approach life, new experiences and people with grounded warmth. Her ability to stay in the moment helps her to uncover exciting potentials. She has a connection and a product of unrelenting imagination - which can also lead to her dozing off - seems to try and may seem counter-intuitive at glance, and may never even see the light of day but she will always prove remarkable innovations.

Nieva couldn’t make these connections if they thought they knew it all - She is highly receptive to alternate theories, so long as she’s supported by logic and facts. In more subjective matters like social norms and traditions, Nieva is usually fairly liberal, with a “none of my business” sort of attitude - and will take in others ideas and use it in a plan. She has a very strong-willed, highly intelligent and bright personality. She is optimistic, resourceful, determined, yet she can be kind and compassionate.

Nieva can be very enthusiastic and if another person shares an interest, she can be downright excited about discussing it. More likely though, the only outward evidence of this enthusiasm will be Nieva’s silent pacing or her staring into the distance. She doesn’t often go around intentionally hurting people’s feelings, but she believes that the truth is the most important factor and she does know that it would hurt them but knows that it’s better than lying. Though her kind nature, Nieva can be stubborn and argue through situations and can be rather opinionated and knows what she is talking about but she eventually learned to not see the world in black or white, becoming the one others turn to when they need emotional support or advice as she can be direct and make hard but valid points, even to a friend. Still, Nieva is unforgiving of anyone who opposes her sense of justice until they stop, even when there was a large difference in power.

She later came to the conclusion that while she will never forgive those who hurt others and she doesn't want to live a life of revenge and that she just wants to live in peace and help those around her. This answer further shows her maturity about revenge isn't the answer as well as her strong conviction and strength of character.
