AVATAR NAME:
Her avatar name is Athena. She chose this name because she is obsessed with Greek mythology. Athena is the goddess of wisdom, courage, inspiration, civilization, law and justice, mathematics, strength, war strategy, the arts, crafts, and skill in ancient Greek religion and mythology.
REAL NAME:
Her full name is Nerina Karagounis. However, she grew up with everybody calling her Nena (pronounced as Nenna). So now she feels more like a Nena, than a Nerina. It is very much appreciated if you call her Nena, and pronounce it the right way. She usually goes by Athena in the game, but doesn’t really mind if people call her Nena (she secretly likes this).
AGE:
Nena is nineteen years old. When the game started, she had just turned eighteen. She was born on the first of november, in the year 2004. Her sign is Scorpio.
PERSONALITY:
Nena is a very active girl, she is always busy or moving around or just plainly walking around the room. She doesn't like to sit idle and do nothing. Always full of energy, you'll find her trying to boost her level or practice. Even though people may find her bossy sometimes, in some way she can be really charismatic. She shows passion and special ability to lead people. She is also encouraging, she will encourage the people she is leading, so that they will do great on the battlefield. Though sometimes she gets in trouble for being 'the bossy one'. Nena is very courageous and brave, she doesn't shy away from anything. She is not afraid to die when they have to fight something, and she will do her absolute best. This makes her ambitious and very determined as well, she is very eager to succeed and will do nearly anything to do so. She is very animated, the way she moves and thinks will make some people grin. When she talks, she makes gestures and movements and when she thinks, you will she her face moving and sometimes she will make small movements as well. Nena has a lot of pride, but she is not at all arrogant. She is just not that easy and will not give up her pride that easily. Since being in the game, she has become very sarcastic and can sometimes be kind of rude to people. Nena is also very candid and will speak her opinion whether you like it or not, and she is very direct and straightforward. People often confuse her directness with rudeness, but sometimes she isn't even trying to be rude, she is just very straightforward. She is also very argumentative. If she is not agreeing with something, she will definitely try to start an argument with you. Nena is a very curious girl, and is very eager to learn new things. She asks a lot of questions, when not knowing something about a certain thing or topic. Nena is a person that is very decisive. She is able to make decisions, good and fast - but she has to. There is no time to consider every option while you are in a fight. You have to be quick. One trait she will never lose is her being trustworthy and keen. You can say how rude and bossy she is, but you will never say to her that she is not to trust. Since being named second-in-command, she carries a heavy responsibility with her. She is very proud to carry the title and will do anything to help one of the troop when they have something bothering them. She is very helpful. She will lend you a hand, in a time of need. She is quick to understand things and act upon them - and she is very sharp and observant. Nena is a very impulsive girl, often acting upon a desire or urge, and not think about the consequences.
There is a lot she will keep to herself. For example she is very hopeful. With every floor they clear, everything they do, she hopes that something good will come out of it. She is also very humble, she will not praise herself for the things she has done. And one of the biggest things she will hide from other players is that she is very loving, as she sometimes can take great pleasure in doing things and she can do things with care and joy. Nena can sometimes get panic attacks. She has build layers and layers of a strong girl with the name Athena, but once Nena comes through, something breaks. Sometimes she will recite the communities that her place of birth Palaiokastritsa is subdivided in. Usually, this helps. This trait of her is slowly creeping away from her, and it scares her. She is afraid of what she will become in another year. If you meet her outside of battle, she is very easy to talk to, kind and cooperative. You still has a little bit charm inside her left, and she can get you to talk about anything and she will always try to help.
All of the above have described Nena as she is in the game. It changed her for better and for worse. This is her on the battlefield, and also while being in command. Nena used to be the happiest person you would ever come across. She was fanciful - lead by imagination rather than by reality. She used to be considerate, and think about the feelings of another person. She was good-natured and very amiable. She used to walk around her house, humming songs and putting flowers everywhere in the house for her parents. Nena was a charming person, and she would charm everyone who would meet her. Her parents used to praise her for being as compassionate and easy-going as she was. She was care-free and lively. Nena used to be the opposite of what she is now. Obsequious; she was always trying to please other people or do favors for them, now she is very much the opposite. She was on her own when she first entered the game, it changed her and she was betrayed by other players. She used to have a really good sense of humor. Nena could often even get facetious; silly and sometimes a bit inappropriate.
One trait that hasn't changed as well, is that she finicky; she is always paying attention to small details. Sometimes it's details that don't even matter. This causes her to be very precise, very careful about the smaller details and very accurate. Her being active can also be translated in her being fidgety. She can often be restless when she hasn't done anything in a while.
