Along with her brother, Nowell is one of Kraden's apprentices pursuing the knowledge of alchemy, particularly the appearance of dark psynergy. She initially appears with Kraden and Rief while investigating a psynergy vortex, when Matthew and his party meet them in a mine. When Rief is kidnapped by Blados and Chalis, Nowell and Kraden head for the north entrance of the mine while Matthew, Tyrell, and Karis go to the south entrance in hopes that one of the groups will be able to save Rief.
