-In-game description.

Nefertiti Armana is a playable character in Metropolis: 3020.

Development
Nefertiti Armana's name is a reference to Nefertiti, an female Egyptian Pharoah from the 14th century BC. Armana is a vague reference to the luxury designer brand Armani, symbolising Nefertiti as a woman of style and wealth. Her outfit is a reference to Diablo 2's Sorceress.

Personality
Nefertiti's viciousness is matched only by Kim Pak Bom. Her in-game dialogue involves her swearing in Arabic upon losing, as well as referring to murder. She is deeply distrustful and hateful of almost everyone she meets. As a foreigner in Metropolis City she keeps to herself, a loner whose only interest is in developing her business while pursuing her clandestine goals for her Pharoah.

Story (Spoiler Alert)
The Egyptian Pharoah has sent her to assassinate her rivals, the twins Valna and Vigna. They have been targeted because he was granted a vision by the Egyptian God of Darkness, Kek. In it, he foresaw his rule being abruptly ended by a pair of psychic twins. As the most prolific psychics in Metropolis City, he ordered Nefertiti to go undercover and pose as a business woman looking to develop a company. Nefertiti did as commanded, but secretly she enjoyed running a business and found it to be a surprising relief from murder. Once she defeats Valna and Vigna in the world of business she challenges them both to a duel in the city's Gauntlet. Upon her victory, she planned to assassinate them both using The Hanged Man. However, Metropolis City's humanitarian vibe having rubbed off of her, as well as the sentimental value she attaches to the many times she has fought with the twins, changes her mind. She decides to spare their lives instead of killing them as previously ordained. She tells them of her Pharoah's vision and warns them to stay away from North Africa, lest she change her mind. She returns to Egypt and wins even more accolades from her boss, the ruler of the Kingdom of Egypt, as he sends her on her next mission...
