Kyrie Florian (キリエ・フローリアン Kirie Furōrian) is a female character from planet Eltria, first introduced in Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A's Portable: The Gears of Destiny.
Name[]
Her family name is presumably a reference to the Isuzu Florian.
In The Gears of Destiny, Kyrie is also titled the Manipulator of Time (時の操手 Toki no Sōshu).
Personality[]
In The Gears of Destiny, Kyrie is depicted as cool, cynical, and something of a natural airhead (天然呆け tennen boke), in contrast to Amitie. She also seems to have no problems with showing of her sexuality, often being depicted with an impish grin when under dressed.
Reflection and it's COMICS add to Kyrie's character by revealing that she has an inferiority complex toward Amitie, wanting to be helpful to her family and hating being treated like a child. Because of this, she took up the areas that her sister lack in, like fashion. She is also far more attached to her family and planet than her sister, refusing to give up on them while the latter already had and even going as far as to participate in criminal acts to save them. However, she is also very naive and gullible, completely trusting Iris even through the latter herself admitted that her manipulations should have been obvious.
Alternate continuities[]
Portable[]
Kyrie only appears in The Gears of Destiny, as an android known as Gears. To save the dying planet Eltria, she travels dimensionally to Earth, aiming for System U-D. However, upon her arrival, she mistakes Hayate Yagami for Lord Dearche, the holder of the Tome of the Purple Sky whom she is looking for.[1]
Movie[]
Kyrie appears in Reflection and Detonation. Unlike in the games, Florians in the movies were Human Eltrians born to Granz Florian and Eleanor Florian. She met Iris 10 years before Reflection when she was 6 [2]. Her sister Amitie Florian is 3 years older than her[2]. Back then a rift was starting to form between her and her family because in her view she was the mediocre daughter in a family super capable people (father is a scientist, mother is a well known figure in their community and the older sister was omnicapable. Also she was envious of her sisters straight red hair which she inherited from their mother, while Kyrie inherited their father's messy and curly hair.
In Reflection, she travels to Earth together with her childhood friend Iris, ignoring her sister's objections, to look for ways to save Eltria.
Brave Duel[]
Kyrie Florian is the younger daughter of the Florian family, studying Year 1 at the Eltria Girls High School.
Powers[]
Like her sister, Kyrie uses the Formula Eltria magic powers and wields the red-framed Variant Zapper as weapon. She is more fond of sword-fencing than of gun-shooting in battles.
In the portable continuity, her red Zapper is more superior than Amitie's blue Zapper in consecutive shooting,[3] making her Rapid Trigger attack more powerful than her sister's Vulcan Raid. Notably in the games, her magic color is visually cyanic (instead of pale blue as seen in artworks) due to game visual effects.
Protect Suit[]
In the portable continuity, Kyrie equips with her pink Protect Suit as her basic defense, which is considered the Formulan equivalent of Barrier Jacket.
