Nuruko/Companion

Nuruko is a scylla-like being that Luka and the party discover among the decaying ruins of Remina. Initially a boss-level enemy, she can be recruited after the battle. It's unclear what exactly she was doing lost in the Tartarus rift, but there seems to be more to her than meets the eye. She seems unable to talk in an articulate manner, only expressing herself with "kyu". At first, only Sonya and Hild appear to be able to understand her and communicate with her.

Should Luka skip her recruitment, the White Rabbit pushes her into your party when Snow Cave is reached.

Biography
Her true nature is revealed on Alice's route when Luka reaches Ilias Temple Ruins. As Adramelech is destroying the world, Nuruko proceeds to change into her Spirit of Chaos form (which is identified by Morrigan and Sylph), transforms Sonya back into her human form, send Adramelech elsewhere, and transforms back into her usual appearance once done.

She later returned in the Collaboration Scenario, helping the heroes fight the Alliance of the Queen of Dreams, along with Sonya and Ilias or Alice and Luka.

Should Luka bring Sonya to translate for him during the Time Loop Event, she will be of great help as she understands the gist of what is happening to Luka. Morrigan reveals that the Spirit of Chaos is on the watchlist of the Dark Goddess while she's getting pretty friendly with her.

She's seen in one of the scenes in the Upcoming Event discussing with Morrigan in the Pocket Castle.

World Interactions
If you bring Nuruko, Sylph, and Gnome to the grave where you meet Gnome, you will have a unique scene with them, unlocking an achievement while doing so.
