'''Jenna'''
'''Jenna'''


Jenna is a Mars Adept and a playable guest character in ''Golden Sun'' that becomes a main playable character in ''Golden Sun: The Lost Age''. A childhood friend of Isaac and Garet's and the younger sister of Felix, Jenna quickly becomes a conventional damsel-in-distress character early on, until ''The Lost Age'' when she joins Felix's quest in full. As a result of her kidnapping between the games she has matured fairly quickly, though it's only obvious in the Japanese script where her speaking style has changed dramatically.
