Niranira is a character in Xenoblade Chronicles 2. He is a member of the Argentum Trade Guild's Intelligence Division, the Special Audit Bureau (SAB).
Appearance and personality[edit]
Story arc[edit]
Chapter 4[edit]
Niranira is first seen stalking the party as they enter Alba Cavanich, being almost found out by Dromarch. Afterwards, he interrupts the fight between Special Inquisitor Mòrag and the party, the former recognizing him as a member of the Argentum guild's Intelligence Division. Niranira explains the situation and vouches for Poppi's innocence. Dromarch mentions he had a feeling they were followed, to which Niranira apologizes, explaining he had been auditing the Argentum Trade Guild.
Chapter 6[edit]
Following the events at the Old Factory, Bana loses his place as Argentum's Chairman to the benefit of Niranira who is appointed as the guild's Acting Chairman. As a consequence, he attends the peace talks between Mor Ardain and Uraya, after both of them nearly went to war against each other in Temperantia, as the guild's representative and a neutral party.
After Torna's responsibility in the attack on the Urayan army is brought up, and Zeke's subsequent testimony, he confirms the organization's involvement, citing that Chairman Bana gave them "some kind of supplies", believing them to be a great number of military supplies.
Afterwards, he continues to track former Chairman Bana. As a consequence, he interrupts Mòrag and Emperor Niall's discussion about Uraya's demands, citing an emergency. Mòrag later reveals to the party that Niranira informed them that Bana planned to intrude on the summit of nations and assassinate both Emperor Niall and Queen Raqura, wishing to cause a war. Additionally, Niranira asked that the incident be solved covertly so as to not cause harm to Argentum's reputation.
After Bana fails to assassinate both the Emperor and the Queen using Giga Rosa, and following his arrest, Niranira remains as the Argentum Trade Guild's Acting Chairman for the time being. He swears to undo Bana's influence and change the way the guild works, cleaning up its dealings. He also continues to investigate on Bana's shady dealings at the same time.
Lore[edit]
- As Acting Chairman, Niranira orders the guild's merchant to practice fair prices for their customers, a policy criticized by some of them who miss Bana and Don Dondon allowing them to use any means necessary to reap profits.

Dialogue[edit]
Chapter 4[edit]
Err... Niranira probably go look around somewhere now. But much thanks for saying hello.
Cannot believe this happening!
Must help prevent casualties quickly!
Go! Not concern yourselves with Niranira!
Chapter 5[edit]
Thought artificial Blade case would be final nail in coffin for our Chairman.
But he slip away again, and we still not manage to arrest him.
Biggest priority is to find place of hiding.
Chapter 6[edit]
Niranira just pray we able to blow this case wide open before Queen Raqura arrive...
Niranira swear to change the way things work around here, undo Bana's influence.
First we crack down on slackers and shady dealings. Want Argentum to be known for clean, honest trade.
During Bana's Secret Treasure[edit]
Maybe we need something like power of Blade that friends showed Niranira the first time we met.
Bana's Secret Treasure completed[edit]
But each written with so much love, hard not to get tears in eyes...
Niranira ashamed. Had suspected Bana of things like bribery and pollen dealing...
But suspicions were all wrong. Bana clean as polished whistle!
During Bana's Revenge[edit]
Most kind Nopon would close treasure trove softly and walk away after reading such contents...
Very dirty trick indeed!
Bana's Revenge completed[edit]
Bana and trobule-causing lot of Bana are in deep trouble too! Mehmeh!
Niranira blinded by sentimentality to see bigger picture. Would not have discovered by his self.
Thank you much for friends' hard work and co-operation.
Finally, it time to start restoring Argentum to its former glory!
