Anissina von Karbelnikoff

Anissina is an inventor and is also Gwendal’s childhood friend. She often uses him to test out her inventions and it is for this reason that Gwendal seems to fear Anissina. When Gwendal is not around, Günter becomes her test subject. She is also the one who taught Gwendal how to knit and later Greta too.

If the men are away from the castle, it is usually Anissina who takes control. When she does so, her inventions are usually seen everywhere. The names of her inventions often end in ‘kun’, and usually state what they are supposed to do. Her inventions often requires the use of maryoku and they actually do more harm than good. An example of this is an invention where the user can communicate with animals, instead of keeping them under control Nicola’s child summoned the dragon Pochi who wreaked part of the castle. These inventions keep Greta entertained and she even thinks that Anissina is so cool.

Aside from her inventions, she spends her time writing adventure story books involving herself as a super-heroine figure. These also usually keep Greta entertained, though Yuri and Wolfram often doubt whether they are even appropriate for children.

She belongs to one of the 10 noble families of the kingdom and her brother rules their country.

She bears striking resemblance to real life French-Russian figure skater Marina Anissina.
