She inherited my father's taste for religion. "She's very smart, and thinks she is holy.
Nessa seems like Frex's mini-me, a fact that Elphaba notes frequently: "Nessarose is a strong-willed semi-invalid," said Elphaba. In a lot of ways, Nessa is the child of two fathers: her likely biological father, Turtle Heart, and the father who raised her, Frex. Nessa, however, is much more than a mysterious figure with unique physical traits and a dramatic death scene. She's shrouded in mystery, so that the eventual reveal that she has no arms is shocking. We get a late introduction to her, and we hear little fragments about her before meeting her. The mystery surrounding Nessa's character is emphasized in the book. Upon entering the world of Wicked, we probably know less about the Witch of the East than we do about her infamous sister. Like her sister, we only have a few physical features, an interesting death (who else can boast of dying from having a house fall on them?), and a derisive name to go on. She's the Wicked Witch of the East, and she's a pair of legs under a house wearing some snazzy shoes.
In the lore of Oz, Nessarose hasn't always had an actual name (like her older sister). Nessarose "That Nessa – she really brought the house down"
