'''Ana''' (alternatively '''Anna''')<ref name=SomeAnnaInfo/> is one of the main characters in {{vg|Mother}}. She lives with her parents in a [[Snowman Chateau|building]] in the small and cold town of [[Snowman]].

 

Ana is normally the third character to join [[Ninten]], although she can be the second character to do so if [[the player]] chooses to have her accompany him before [[Lloyd]]. It should be noted that it is not necessary to have Ana as a party member in order to finish the game.

Ana weighs 36 kg, is 143 cm tall and has blood type B.<ref name=SomeAnnaInfo/> She has blond hair, which is tied up in two bunches on the opposite sides of her head by the use of red ribbons, making her hair end right above her ears. After joining [[Ninten]]'s and [[Lloyd]]'s party, she also wears a [[List of key items in Mother#Hat|hat]], which she can be seen wearing for the remainder of the game. In-game, the hat appears to be pink and rounded, although it has taken on various different appearances in merchandise-related artwork. Both of her bunches do additionally point backwards when wearing the hat. Ana has blue eyes, and wears a pink dress-like garment with a round, white collar, being visible near her throat. She also wears a pair of red ballet flats and a pair of white socks. Red blushes can also be seen on her cheeks.

Ana is described as a kind-hearted and sympathetic individual, to the extent where she even is considered to be the pride of [[Snowman]] by the inhabitants of the town. She was born on the 23th of December and has thus the Capricorn as her zodiac sign.<ref name=SomeAnnaInfo/> She enjoys playing piano and organ, usually practicing pieces by [[wikipedia:Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart|Mozart]], which she thinks of as relaxing. Ana is implied to be religious, due to her liking for the Bible, being one of her most treasured possessions, and that her father is the pastor of the town. She is often referred to as "Little Mother"<!--ちいさなおかちゃん--> by the younger children of the town, due to her high grades in school. Her kind personality is explained to be due to the positive approach from her parents and the residents of the town, which she was given an advantage to, due to the role her father had in the society. Her benevolence is for example shown during one occasion when there was a frog dissection at her school; Ana's concern for the frogs did as a result lead to her subconsciously freeing them, implied to be through the use of PSI.<ref name=kenisu>[http://kenisu.webs.com/motherencyclopedia.htm MOTHER Encyclopedia - The Suburbs of kenisu's Magicant]</ref> She and [[Ninten]] are the only human characters in the game who are able to use [[PSI]], though Ana possesses a larger quantity of moves and is also the only one that is able to utilize offensive PSI attacks; although her [[Status#Offense|Offense]]- and [[Status#Defense|Defense]] stats are worse than any of the other party members. Her main weapons, which only are usable by her, are [[frying pan]]s. One negative property that is mentioned concerning Ana is her lack of courage.<ref>"My daughter, Ana has never been a brave girl, but, she is kind of heart, and has a secret strength." - Ana's father</ref>

Among Ana's favorite objects are her piano, her Bible, her stamp collection, her envelope collection, and her record entitled "Tadaima" by [[wikipedia:Akiko Yano|Akiko Yano]].<ref name=AnasFavoriteThings>[[:File:AnasFavoriteThings.gif|Excerpt from Ana's Encyclopedia Mother Entry]]</ref> When it comes to the piano, she considers the melody of one to be another way of writing. During one occasion, where her teacher had given the class homework, Ana asked the teacher if she was allowed to do the assignment on piano, leaving the teacher confused. She got the Bible as a baby, and even though she could not understand the words written within, she could feel the purity it contained. The book became of even more value to her when she learned that the text "For our newborn Ana" was written on the last page of it. Her ribbon is something she usually has tied up in her hair, though she occasionally wears a [[List of key items in Mother#Hat|hat]] during special excursions. Her stamp collection consists of used stamps given away to her by her classmates in sunday school, which she keeps in a round candy can and that helps her in her volunteering. Her envelope collection is however something she has for herself; she loves to send letters, and due to her finickity concerning the choice of envelope, the time spent on writing the letter itself is almost shorter than the time spent on picking envelope. Her "Tadaima" record by Akiko Yano was given to her as a gift from her penpal, Yoshie, who lives in Japan. She usually listens to it after getting home from school, even though she does not understand Japanese.<ref name=kenisu/><ref name=AnasFavoriteThings/>

Ana was born on the day before Christmas Eve, being on the 23th of December, during a snowy night at the church of [[Snowman]] (being a chateau in the English prototype). Ana's father, being the pastor of the town, had earlier informed the residents of the town that he would ring the church bell once if the baby that was expected to be born was a boy and twice if it was a girl. The bell rang twice, and gossips concerning the birth occurred among the townspeople the next morning. Ana quickly became popular amongst the denizens due to her honest and kind nature, and it did not take long until she was regarded as the pride of the town. She got the nickname "Little Mother" by the young children of the town when she managed to reach the higher grades in school. She would occasionally teach songs to the children that only were a little younger than her, and read from "The Prince of Stars"<!--『ほしのおうじさま』のほん-->, being a favorite book of hers, for them when gathering for sunday school at church.<ref name=kenisu/>

After traveling across the swamp, they reach [[Ellay]], a city notorious for the criminal [[Bla-Bla Gang]], whose members roam around the city while displaying hostile behavior. The party goes into the [[Live House]] after purchasing a [[List of key items in Mother#Ticket|ticket]], where they get to perform onstage. Once the performance is over, they are confronted by the leader of the Bla-Bla Gang, [[Teddy]], who accuses them of beating up on his gang members, followed by a battle between him and Ninten. Teddy quickly ends the battle however, and does instead ask them to help him avenge the death of his parents. He takes [[Lloyd]]'s place, thinking of him as weak, and then the party heads off to [[Mt. Itoi]], being the location where his parents died.
