Amira



Amira the Unfortunate Lamia (Japanese: アミラ Amira) is a recurring monster. Unlike a normal lamia, her upper half is that of a snake while her lower half is that of a human.

First appearing in Iliasburg, proclaiming her love for the hero, she appears in almost every town/city Luka goes to afterwards. She constantly breaks the fourth wall, lampshades and makes up various lies. Despite all this, she provides helpful information to Luka and Alice. She seems to have a large crush on Luka, referring to him as some kind of destined love.

Biography
She first meets Luka in Iliasburg just as he attempts to leave, claiming to be infatuated towards Luka for having driven off Granberia. Her unusual appearance brings Luka to the brink of the edge and attempts to kill her, only to be stopped by Alice. She warns him of bandits in a nearby mountain, and pleads Luka to drive them out.

After Luka defeats the Goblin Girl, Tiny Lamia, Vampire Girl, and Dragon Pup, Amira appears again thanking the hero for his deeds. After lying about her appearance, she attempts to force Luka to love her using Heart Splash, but uses the “wrong effect” and the sealing effect occurs on her.

Heading to Iliasport, Amira appears once again having gathered “sort-of illegal” information on how to cross to Sentora: the legendary captain Selene possessed an item known as the Poseidon’s Bell which is hidden in a nearby cave, and legend has it that the ships that possess the bell will not break.

She appears again in San Ilia, having snuck aboard the ship heading to Sentora. Two children play around her, and mention about a Haunted Manor.

Staying at Sabasa Castle’s jail as a freeloader for “three meals a day”, Amira reveals about Gnome’s location at Safaru Ruins, having being worshipped by animists there many years ago. Thanking her, Luka asks her to find information about Undine and Salamander.

At Grand Noah, she was kicked out from Sabasa Castle for overstaying as a freeloader. “Disguised” as a snitch, she reveals that Undine lives in a place called Undine’s Spring or the Taboo Spring.

In Grangold, she reveals that Salamander is located at Gold Volcano. Having tracked all the Four Spirits, Alice asks her to locate the Six Orbs.

Meeting her once again in Gold Port, she hides in a trash can to avoid Ilias Kreuz. The location of the orbs follow: the Red Orb being taken by the Four Bandits at Irina Mountains, the Yellow Orb held by the Sphinx at the Pyramid, the Green Orb in the Grand Noah Queen’s hands at Grand Noah, and the Purple Orb being a treasure of Selene; the rest she doesn’t know. Alice brings up that the Blue Orb is held by the Kraken and Poseidon holds the Silver Orb. If Luka is in possession of the Red, Yellow, and Green Orbs at this point, she will give him the Jewel of Victory, if not he will just obtain these three orbs from her.

When Luka attempts to hatch the Garuda Girl, Alice remembers that two monsters must perform the hatching ceremony. Amira steps in and agrees to help. Drained of energy from the ceremony, Amira leaves.
