“ | Nice to meet you! Hehe, I've actually been watching you for a long time already. My name's Nahida. I might look like a child, but don't be fooled: I understand this world much better than any grown-up. So... can we trade knowledge? I want to hear all about your travel stories. So, what would you like to know in return? | „ |
~ Nahida |
“ | Hm? People say they feel a sense of relief after they take dook-dook. That's why I suggested you could try that. Is that so strange? | „ |
~ Nahida to the Traveler |

Intelligence: Genius (As the God of Wisdom, Nahida's most notable traits are her exceptional Intelligence, Knowledge, and Planning. She's capable of creating extremely thorough, multi-layered plans and can even be a little manipulative if the situation calls for it. She's also capable of making plans in a pinch, as shown when she bartered with II Dottore)
Weaknesses: As the Dendro Archon, Due to Erosion it will result in the loss of one's consciousness and sense of self, making them more irritable and suspect to explosive fits of rage; as a result, the more powerful a person is, the more dangerous they become under the effects of erosion. Some parts of her abilities rely on Akasha to be used, as such upon closing the Akasha she most likely has no access to those abilities anymore such as Information Manipulation and Technology Manipulation.

Elemental Skill, All Schemes to Know:
Sends forth karmic bonds of wood and tree from her side, dealing AoE Dendro DMG and marking up to 8 opponents hit with the Seed of Skandha. When held, this skill will trigger differently. This also allows Nahida to read people's Minds.
Elemental Burst, Illusory Heart:
Manifests the Court of Dreams and expands the Shrine of Maya. When the Shrine of Maya field is unleashed, the following effects will be separately unleashed based on the Elemental Types present within the party.
- Pyro: While Nahida remains within the Shrine of Maya, the DMG dealt by Tri-Karma Purification from "All Schemes to Know" is increased.
- Electro: While Nahida remains within the Shrine of Maya, the interval between each Tri-Karma Purification from "All Schemes to Know" is decreased.
- Hydro: The Shrine of Maya's duration is increased.
If there are at least 2 party members of the aforementioned Elemental Types present when the field is deployed, the aforementioned effects will be increased further. Even if Nahida is not on the field, these bonuses will still take effect so long as party members are within the Shrine of Maya.
