Eunie

Eunie (, Eunie) is a playable character in Xenoblade Chronicles 3. She is a soldier from Keves, and the childhood friend of Noah and Lanz.

Appearance and personality
Eunie is a girl resembling a High Entia, characterized by the small white wings atop her head. She has shoulder-length light brown hair and blue eyes, and her main outfit consists of a sleeveless skintight jumpsuit, a black hooded jacket with yellow-green accents, and black sneakers with the same green accents. Additionally, she also wears a belt and a black choker. During her time as a soldier, Eunie wore sleeves on top of her jumpsuit and black shoe with power frames on them. Her term mark is located on the right side of her breast.

Eunie is known for her rough, sharp-tongued personality. She is quite headstrong, which causes her to clash with characters like Lanz and Taion frequently; however, she is also shown to be thoughtful and sensitive to the emotions of others, as well. After discovering her own husk at Lomi Hill, she develops post-traumatic stress disorder and is repeatedly overwhelmed by the memory of her previous incarnation's death at the hands of D. Remembering this traumatic event would cause her hands to shake alongside becoming paralyzed by fear at the sight of D, although she is soon consoled by Taion and the rest of the group, encouraging her to face D later on.

Like the rest of Ouroboros, she wishes to change the world in order to stop the needless bloodshed orchestrated by Moebius within the colonies of Aionios. Due to experiencing her past incarnation's death, she is often introspective about her many previous lives, as shown by her conversations with Monica in the City and Taion in the Lost Colony.

As Ouroboros
When interlinking with Taion, Eunie takes on one of two Ouroboros forms: one associated with herself, the other with Taion. Eunie's Ouroboros form appears as a feminine red-and-black humanoid with a glowing core in the lower torso. Membrane-like wings sprout from its head, and it may sprout much larger, more intricate wings from its back which grant the capability of free flight. Without these wings, the form uses either two turret-like guns which float to either side or a large cannon.

Eunie's Ouroboros has immense healing capabilities; it is able to instantly and fully heal significant injuries sustained by Eunie's allies. Offensively, it focuses on ranged attacks: the turrets fire small quick shots, whereas the cannon is slower but fires a more sustained, powerful shot. Large volleys of weaker ranged attacks may be fired from the wings.

Prologue
A young Eunie and her friends Noah, Lanz and Joran are seen dashing through a crowd for the Queen's anniversary in. When the clock strikes six, time appears to stop and everyone except for Noah freezes in place.

Main Story
Eunie, Noah, Lanz, Mwamba and Riku take part in the battle against Colony Sigma in which they are victorious. Eunie teases Noah about taking his off-seeing duties too seriously and then laments the fact that the transports took off without them, forcing the party to make the long trek back to on foot.

In a flashback, a young Eunie is shown fighting in a training exercise alongside Noah, Lanz, and Joran. They end up losing the standoff with Garvel's team after Joran decides to put himself in harm's way in order to heal Lanz. Afterwards, an angry Lanz attempts to punch Joran for his recklessness only for Noah to stop him, followed by Eunie who claims that Joran did the right thing. She later reminds Noah of his birthday, which he forgot about. The next day, the four friends attend a Homecoming; one that is conducted by the Queen of Keves herself.

Back in the present, the party heads to the bathing tent after arriving to Colony 9. While in the tent, it is revealed through conversation that Joran had died a couple of years ago. Eunie asks Noah if he is still hurt by Joran's loss, to which he replies that he's "not over it, but getting there", pointing out that Lanz had been the most affected and that they should worry about him instead. Once Lanz joins them in the bath, he and Eunie get into an argument about who earned the most points in the earlier battle.

The next day, a royal decree is issued by the Castle. Colony 9's mission is to destroy a large ether source of unknown origin in the Alfeto Valley. Agnian forces are noted to also be targeting the ether source, alongside a potential third party. With these orders, the main group (accompanied by Mwamba and Riku as before) make their way into the valley.
