Characters

The Nightmare Princess will include multiple characters. Some appear as enemies at first in the quest mode, but are playable after the player completes certain quests.

  • Velguirie (ヴァルギリエ, Varugirie) is the second daughter of the devil and the protagonist of the game. She's described as being the titular "Nightmare Princess" that humans will see in their dreams. She has lost her original powers due to a long sleep. She works with her Automaton Ephemera, who's taught her all the necessary steps and knowledge about how to revive evil.
  • Laegrinna (レグリナ, Regurina) is the first daughter of the devil and first appeared in Deception IV: Blood Ties. She has very light skin and snow white hair. In comparison to her younger sister Velguirie, Laegrinna does not physically hit her victims, but disposes of them with traps. She's described as the "Dark Side Princess" for her origins.
  • Allura (アリシア, Arishia) is the princess of Fronenberg and first appeared in Trapt. She was wrongly accused of murdering the king and branded as a traitor by her stepmother Catalina, and forced to have a branded tattoo on her back; hence, she's described as the "Branded Princess" as such.
  • Reina (レイナ) is a girl from Burganfada and first appeared in Deception III: Dark Delusion. She was kidnapped by an assassin named Miguel, after her family was murdered at her 17th birthday, and was sent to Alendar. The king of Alendar, king Federick, sent Reina to Hades Jail, where a boy named Marco gave her the power to use traps so that she would not be harmed, but in exchange, she led a cursed life. She's described as the "Tragic Princess" for her personal tragic history, and must kill humans in order to survive as such.
  • Millennia (ミレニア, Mirenia) first appeared in Kagero: Deception II. As a child she wandered into a mansion, chasing an orb of light that made her feel happy. Over the years of being in the mansion she was trained in the ways of using traps by a Timenoid called Yocal. She's described as the "Clockwork Princess" for her great skills of chaining the traps.
