Nereid is a Summon of the Mercury element, available when two Mercury Djinn are on standby. It resembles a purple-haired girl in Japanese clothing arrive riding a giant tortoise, summoning an enormous water spout to engulf the enemy party.

Nereid has a base Mercury power of 60 and does additional damage equivalent to 6% of the enemy’s maximum HP. It deals the same damage as two Mercury summons, but also adds 30 Water Power to the user, whereas the two Mercury summons in a row would not raise the Water Power bonus above 10.

In Dark Dawn, Nereid appears as a blond woman in a dark blue dress, riding a hippocampus sidesaddle and wielding a trident. She brandishes the trident to call a powerful wave to rush forth and crush the party's enemies.
