Precia Testarossa (プレシア・テスタロッサ Pureshia Tesutarossa?), also transliterated as Presia, is the first main villain of the Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha series; however, she does not appear in Triangle Heart. She is voiced by Rei Igarashi. A mage and the main resident of the Garden of Time, Precia sends her daughter Fate Testarossa out to Earth to collect a set of Lost Logia (ancient and powerful magical artifacts) known as the Jewel Seeds, while evading the Time-Space Administration Bureau. While a researcher of familiars, she does not have one of her own during Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha, and her weapon is unnamed.

[edit] Precia in Nanoha

Precia first appears in episode 7, having previously been mentioned as the reason that Fate is gathering Jewel Seeds. She is abusive and cruel, torturing Fate simply for not getting enough Jewel Seeds and not disposing of potential hindrance Nanoha. Though Arf hates Precia and tells Fate that she is not worth it, Fate asserts that she remembers a time when Precia was kind and stable, and thinks that she will be cured of her insanity if she gets the Jewel Seeds.

Precia lives in a gloomy hideout in the Garden of Time with Fate and Arf, although the latter two generally "live" in their apartment in Uminari City more than the hideout itself. Precia spends the entirety of the series in the Garden of Time, and always transformed, except in flashbacks. She used to be a scientist involved in research on the creation of familiars, but had another, secret project.

Late in the series, Arf finally strikes out at Precia, and is thrown out as "useless". Precia supervises Fate's winner-takes-all fight with Nanoha, and when Fate loses, sends a storm to attack Fate and steal her Jewel Seeds before she can give them away. The Time-Space Administration Bureau, having joined up with Nanoha and labeled Precia as a dangerous criminal, traces her to the Garden of Time and attempts to capture her. Precia defeats their first group of soldiers and, realizing that Fate is among those observing her in the Asura, reveals that Fate is a clone of her biological daughter Alicia. Precia went insane when Alicia died and concentrated herself on her secret project, which researched both cloning and the forbidden art of resurrection: Project Fate, from which Fate Testarossa takes her name. The madwoman also reveals that Fate was a temporary replacement, a tool to get the Jewel Seeds so that Precia could go to the ancient capital of the magical worlds, Al Hazard, and retrieve the lost technology that could finish her work.[3]

Precia activates the nine Jewel Seeds in her possession and wishes to go to Al Hazard. This action causes a massive dimensional disturbance, and the Garden of Time begins to fall apart. When Fate joins up with Nanoha and the TSAB forces, she attempts to save Precia, but the crazed mage refuses, laughing in her face and choosing to die with the preserved body of Alicia rather than face a several-hundred-year sentence for her crimes. In the end, she falls without a struggle into an active volcano.

[edit] Precia in A's

Though dead, Precia's influence is still felt throughout the series, as when Fate learns that the Wolkenritter are also artificially created beings, and wonders if she, like they originally were, has no heart or soul. When Fate is captured by the Book of Darkness and thrown into a dream from which she will never want to wake, a version of Precia appears very different from the one that Fate and the viewers know. This Precia is kind, gentle and would never lay a hand on her twin daughters Fate and Alicia. She and the dream-Alicia represent the life that Fate has always wanted to live, but Fate must leave them to their ideal world and return to her own real world to save Nanoha and friends.

[edit] Powers

  • Most to all of these are unnamed.
  • Like other mages, she has the ability of telepathic communication.
  • Transformation — Not seen, but it is assumed to be possible.
  • Whip — Precia turns her weapon into a light whip.
  • Chains — Used to create shackles attached to chains that hang from the ceiling.
  • Attack — An area of effect that took out an entire Time-Space Administration Bureau troop.
  • Levitation — Precia can levitate and move heavy objects such as Alicia's tank.
  • Clairvoyance — Precia looks into a sphere in her throne room and sees an image of whatever Fate is doing at that time. It is unknown as to whether she can see anything else.
  • Lightning — Precia can send a vast storm even to another dimension. It is distinguished from a regular storm by its bright purple lightning, and its signal was strong enough for Amy Limietta to trace the spell's origin in seconds. She used the storm both to attack Fate and retrieve her Jewel Seeds at the same time.
  • Photon Bullet — Using a small but lethal spell, Precia seriously injured Arf with one finger.
  • Jewel Seed Activation — Precia was able to use nine Jewel Seeds without merging with them and becoming a deformed monster. However, only having nine out of twenty-one, she was unable to reach Al Hazard, and went to her death without using them to escape. It is unknown whether she could, as she passively plummeted without a fight and of her own free will.

[edit] References

  1. ^ Precia once spearheaded a project researching familiars. In the prequel drama CD, her familiar was a mountain lion patterned after Alicia's pet called Rinis (リニス Rinisu?) (known in the fansubs as Linith), whose primary purpose was to train Fate in the magical arts, and build her intelligent device, Bardiche. She ceases to exist after Fate's training is complete, but makes a cameo appearance in A's episode 11. Apparently she is embarrassed to show her ears and tail, and hides them under her clothing, which is unusual for most familiars[1].
  2. ^ As nearly every attack on her person has not been effective, it is unknown whether this is actually her Barrier Jacket.
  3. ^ Precia: "I'll tell you something good, Fate. Ever since I've created you, I've always..." / Nanoha: "Stop it (hurting Fate)!"/ Precia: "Hated you! Ahahahaha!"(Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha, translation- The Triad)
