Aya Brea
is the central character and main protagonist of the ''Parasite Eve'' video game series developed by Square Enix (formerly Square). The character first appears in the 1998 role-playing video game ''Parasite Eve''. In the game, she is a rookie NYPD officer who faces off against Eve, a being created by sentient mitochondria wishing to conquer life on earth. In the 2000 sequel ''Parasite Eve II'', Aya, now working for the FBI, is investigating further activities involving mitochondria. In the 2010 game ''The 3rd Birthday'', an amnesiac Aya is found by the Counter Twisted Investigation (CTI) unit to fight against the "Twisted", a mitochondria-spawned creature that has taken over Manhattan.
Created by ''Parasite Eve''s producer Hironobu Sakaguchi, she was designed by Tetsuya Nomura after her original artist failed to realize Sakaguchi's vision for the character. Nomura ended up blending two different character designs to create her final appearance. He also returned to design her in the two sequels, although she was mostly designed by another unnamed artist for ''Parasite Eve II''. Her depiction in ''The 3rd Birthday'' was meant to be both realistic and attractive. The character has been well received by critics.
==Creation and development==
Aya Brea was created by Hironobu Sakaguchi, the producer for ''Parasite Eve'', and designed by Tetsuya Nomura. Aya was originally being designed by someone else, but the original sketches did not satisfy Sakaguchi, who had wanted a long-haired character like Aerith Gainsborough, a central character from ''Final Fantasy VII''. At the time, he was creating another unspecified character for a different project who sported short hair: he got confused while designing them and accidentally combined the two designs, creating the then-current Aya. The original concept for her was to have her as strong, sexy and "bewitching".〔 Her design in ''Parasite Eve II'' was to have been handled by a different artist again, using her original design as a template. While most of the design was finalized, the designer quit halfway through the game's development, meaning Nomura had to be called in again. As the in-game model had already been created, he preserved what had already been done while adding touches of his own.
Nomura returned again to design both Aya and Eve for ''The 3rd Birthday'', although he had originally only meant to design those two characters. In the event, he ended up designing the entire main cast. A challenge for the game's developers was to make her seem realistic when compared to her previous appearances. One of the other things Nomura did for her design was to make her less stocky than the original design, which Nomura was always uncomfortable about.〔 Aya's attractiveness became a central element to the game, and was emphasized by a shower scene. Her English voice actress in ''The 3rd Birthday'' was Yvonne Strahovski. A fan of the character, when approached by Square Enix to play the role, she was "immediately interested". Having grown used to playing strong and confident female characters, Strahovski liked Aya's initial vulnerability and the emotional growth she had during the story. As she needed to convey these feelings during her performance, Strahovski found voicing Aya "fun and challenging". She also felt that people could relate to Aya as she was "normal" in most respects.
