Nicoletta Goldstein, widely known as Nico, is a skilled artisan and a key supporting figure in Devil May Cry 5. She collaborates with Nero's division of the Devil May Cry enterprise and is the mastermind behind the numerous cybernetic prosthetics he employs to combat demons after losing his Devil Bringer arm.
Itsuno designed Nico as a supportive character for Nero, noting that Kyrie wouldn't be the type to actively assist him in battles. Kyrie represents "the most important thing" to Nero. Itsuno also aimed to introduce a unique, sassy personality to the Devil May Cry series through Nico's character.
In creating Nico, Itsuno drew inspiration from his peculiar fascination with being reprimanded by "bad girls." He believed that hanging out with a sassy girl like Nico, who constantly smokes, highlights your shortcomings, and gives you a hard time when necessary, would be "cool." Consequently, Nico was never intended to be a playable character; instead, her role is to encourage the player to "man up" and improve their performance.
