— Nell -

Nell (Japanese: キャサリン Kyasarin; Catherine) is the Commander-in-Chief of Orange Star forces, presumably succeeding Hachi. She appears in the first three games of the series, acting as a mentor and leader to her subordinates.

Role

In Advance Wars

Nell directs the player through Field Training to help the player become accustomed to game's mechanics and controls. During the campaign, she will offer intel and tips to the player to help complete the mission.

In Advance Wars 2

Nell continues to lead Orange Star, though she plays a relatively minor role in the campaign. She will make appearances in dialogue and often is responsible for sending reinforcements to other nations.

In Advance Wars Dual Strike

Nell's younger sister, Rachel is in command of Orange Star forces in Omega Land. As a result, Nell only makes cameo appearances. She sends her regards and reinforcements to help the war effort.

Personality

Nell follows suit with the rest of the Orange Star CO's, being prepared and caring. She is a confident, yet patient leader, evident in dialogue. Nell acts as a mentor to both Andy and Max, and while she guides Sami when needed.

Relationships

Nell holds a grudge particularly against Olaf, and to some extent Grit. While plot details are unknown, the two Blue Moon CO's were once part of Orange Star, but defected. She holds loyalty towards her nation and holds good relation with her fellow commanders. It is hinted that both Andy and Max are also quite fond of her.

Skills

Nell has no skills, but rather is lucky in combat. Her CO Powers enhance this ability, making it possible for her to deal more damage than expected.
