Nikki Cherryflower

Nikki Cherryflower works in the Department of Floaters with Sergio Turbo and Corolla. She is a badfic clone of Sakura Kinomoto who ended up in HQ by way of a plothole.

She retired in late 2012 after the events of the Blank Sprite incident, but still gets involved in PPC happening every now and then.

Appearance
She is around 5'7" tall and still resembles the canonical Sakura despite her efforts to differentiate herself. She now has long hair and hides her figure with a long coat as she's not yet used to a teenage body. (She was sixteen years old when recruited, but her body for unknown reasons didn't age past ten. Medical fixed that.) She is also much stronger than her appearance would suggest.

Due to the plot of her home fic, she lost her Card Captor magical powers, but her magic didn't have the time to reform into something else, and so keeps switching system wildly under external conditions. For example, she can become a Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha mage during a mission in that continuum, only to become a Mermaid Melody mermaid after falling into water. She initially to rely on a Muggle-use Wand in order to be able to perform magic, but later managed to make a permanent switch to Nanohaverse magic. She is also quite proficient at throwing grenades. Oddly enough, she doesn't like them for the explosions, but for the various tactical uses "specialty" ones like flashbangs have.

Personality
Personality-wise, she is very different from Sakura, being less naive and with a keen eye for details. She is, however, quite shy and unsure about her own identity, yet willing to live her own life at the fullest.

Another difference between Nikki and Sakura is that the agent is willing to use lethal force when the situation calls for it, although she prefers more peaceful solutions when possible.

Not much more can be said yet, as she's still developing as a character.

Partners and Family
Being a badfic clone, she doesn't have a family, and the only two people close to her are her partners, Sergio and Corolla.

As they own Sakura Kinimoto, a mini of the character she is a clone of, Nikki is probably the closest thing to an Agent owning a mini of himself that the PPC will ever see.

After her retirement, she apparently married Sergio and had a daughter, Keiko. They eventually ended up adopting Shiro Turbo and Saki Cherryflower, two younger AU version of themselves they recruited while helping Keiko in one of her early missions.

Nikki's given name is based on a proposed but unused name change for Sakura Kinomoto in the Cardcaptors dub of the series. Cherryflower is a translation of "sakura", or the Japanese cherry tree blossoms.
