Character from Smash Bros Brawl: The Subspace Emissary by Nintendo / Masahiro Sakurai
The Goddess of Light who watches the Subspace invasion from Skyworld — she cannot fight directly, but she sends Pit and grants him the power of flight.
Palutena does not fight in the Subspace Emissary. She observes the invasion from Skyworld and dispatches Pit to intervene. Her role is enabling — she grants Pit the power of flight, which his wings cannot sustain alone, and sends him on the trajectory that leads to Mario's rescue. Her presence establishes the stakes: when a goddess is concerned enough to send her captain, the threat is real. She trusts Pit completely, granting him autonomy rather than giving direct orders.
A tall goddess with long green hair, a golden staff, and flowing white robes. She appears only in brief cutscenes, framed by divine light. Her expression is serene but urgent — she sees the crisis unfolding below and acts through Pit rather than descending herself.
Also known as: Lady Palutena, Goddess of Light
