d.e.e.p. (nikke)
A mysterious individual from Goddess of Victory: Nikke who proclaims to be the guardian of the Ark itself. First introduced in the event "Footstep, Walk, Run".
She is garbed from head to toe in a dark grey robe with a large cleavage cutout, revealing her large breasts covered by something skintight. A visor or helmet covers her eyes, atop which sits a polygonal headress. The only parts of her body actually visible are her mouth, chin, and some locks of white or grey hair. Refers to herself both in the first-person singular and plural interchangeably.
A pair of ordinary semi-rimless glasses with red frames are clipped to the side of her robe, just above her breasts. This has fueled wild speculation that she has some connection to Neon.
She is met by Red Hood, who stumbles upon her chamber in the basement of the Lift. She reveals to her the Ultra Massive Core, an enormous Rapture core which is used to power the Lift, and tells her another UMC powers the Ark. The two cores are paired: if one is destroyed the other is destroyed as well.
