Beats me. With latino diversity groups spearheading TPCi you’d think they’d know what she is

Idk, Nemona defintely looks Latina/mestiza rather than Indian. It gets retarded the more you think about it.

Would you prefer Japan where almost every single character gets a japanese name despite the games taking place overseas since 2010?

She's actually named after SaGITTAria, the genus of plant that includes her Japanese namesake, sagittaria trifolia, or threeleaf arrowhead, called omodaka in Japanese. Omodaka is Geeta's Japanese name.
