Niko's mom is a minor character in the game who seems to be the only parent taking care of Niko. She is never shown in the game itself, but frequently appears in Niko's dreams. Her name was never revealed in either the original game or the remake, nor was it disclosed by any of the game developers.

Appearance

Niko's mother has light brown hair tied in a low ponytail. She wears a white kerchief with folds that resemble cat ears. She also seems to look like Niko, sharing some of their cat-like features.

Personality

Niko's mother is shown to be kind, caring, and nurturing.

Plot

Niko frequently mentions their mother in a positive manner, often referencing her pancakes and how much they enjoy them. During Niko's stay in The World, they are shown to miss their mother, which is a major factor in their desire to return home.

Trivia

• Niko's father, her presumable husband, has probably been working outside of the village since Niko was a toddler.
  • His existence is also to an extent confirmed in the game when the Player names themselves either Mom or Dad, after which, Niko will express how it would be hard and confusing to tell their parents apart from the player.
• She was originally planned to be a custodian for the children of Niko's village, and all the children would be raised as a group. This was changed, for it would be easier for Niko to explain if she was simply their mother.
