The first of the 3rd generation of Newearls, Rika was no longer plagued by several of they key quirks of her predecessors like suicidical tendencies or a desire to destroy all other humanoid life, proving a vital role in not only defeating Dark Force multiple times but going even beyond that just in her second year of life. Her magitechniques allow one to channel the more useful aspects Rika could draw forth when needed from the Nei series, like advanced brain tricks and a cat’s homicidical tendencies with slashing weapons.
