Fairly racist Elf Power planeswalker. Nissa is infamous for derping her way to freeing the eldrazi, and not producing playable cards. Apparently has mellowed out a bit after seeing other races be effective.
Fluff Retcon
WotC was originally setting Nissa up to be a Green-based villain due to aforementioned massive racism, something she shared with the genocidal Elf Nazis of Lorwyn. In fact, her original fluff said that she learned a bit about Black mana from the Elf Nazis, but no card has ever shown that.
Anyway, WotC realized they'd written themselves into a corner when they turned Garruk, their flagship Green 'walker, into a vengeful monstrosity slowly losing his mind and/or morphing into a demon. They did perhaps their most blatant retcon in recent history to turn Nissa from an elf racist into a land-mage, a "worldwaker." Unfortunately, even as a hero, Nissa was still completely useless except as a plot device for the rest of her Gatewatch colleagues. At least her planeswalker cards got better.
