Profile of Nym: Details
Appearance
She seems to have been designed by a higher intelligence with one purpose: deception.

At a year old, her curves have shed the padding of youth and her body is lean and fierce. Her face is guarded and usually downcast as if to hide the beauty there. Regardless of her age, a timeless weariness has settled into the gold of her eyes - she appears to have seen too much and grown up too fast. Scars litter her frame, marking her as a warrior - the only of notice being three wide slash marks on her shoulder. Soot had been rubbed into the deep wounds, so that the scars were left standing out in vivid relief against her pale coat as three black slashes - the mark of The Night Stalkers.

A wisp of a girl, she can barely tip the scales at 90 pounds soaking wet. Her frame is gamine thanks to her canine heritage, smaller than a wolf's, and compact. Dainty paws give way to slender legs and a streamlined form made for speed. Her musculature is wiry and nearly hidden by her soft, feathery fur; at first glance, she appears harmless.

In spite of outward appearances, as a trained assassin, the Night Stalker is capable of many things. She has been taught at the knee of violence, she has learned the secrets of kings and sold them on a honeyed tongue across pillow cases in the disguise of a lover. Do not be deceived by the sweetness in her gaze; she's a villain, a monster.
Personality
"I found that I could no longer look into the jaws of their lies, down their gullets and into the corruption that was the belly of the beast. And I found then, that the only company left to me was the one beast I hated the most - myself."


Someone who wants to be left the fuck alone.

Violence seems to color her aura from the predatory grace she moves with to the dark gleam in her golden eyes. She remains distant even from those she finds herself allied with, if only at first. At the tender age where heartbreak comes often and hope is nonexistent, she's an angsty teen with a shitty past waiting to be unraveled.

A girl who has received a lot of cosmic kicks to the gut, so to speak. She's equally standoffish, aloof, brooding, dark, and cynical but there's also a seemingly out of place vulnerability if you're patient enough to gain her trust. A troubled girl who speaks little, she seems to know too much of war and too little of life.

She seems unbothered by the trials faced in the pasts, though this is a facade to hide the damaged girl underneath. She follows no set moral code or alignment, preferring a vengeance all her own. A girl who has injured, tortured, and killed but also a girl who has been sold, raped, and turned into a weapon to survive. It's unclear who remains once you strip away her past as a Night Stalker or her memories of being a slave.

The only thing that is clear is that she has no idea where she belongs without the charter.






Biography
Born in British Columbia, Canada, the pup was born alongside three other siblings on a humid July day. Her parents were mere dispersal wolves, seeking to start a familial band of their own. The first few weeks of her life were nondescript. However, when she was nearing the weaning period of her life, her father died of a heart attack - though to her mother, who was not a healer, he seemed to just have mysteriously died. It was Nym who found his body, wandering from the den. Some several yards from the entrance, she'd found him apparently returning with prey for his mate and children. Her mother found her youngest later, curled into the crook of her father's still cooling corpse as she dozed against him.

Taking this to mean the child was a bad omen, she was abandoned on the outskirts of another pack, blamed for her father's death. The child was found by the pack and taken in for a time until it was revealed, mistakenly, to her that she would be raised to be a wife to one of the males on the war council.

Nym left, creeping out of the territory as the others slept, with little trouble - for the girl was too docile to raise much suspicion. She wandered alone for a time but finally, she was captured by raiders and taken to the nearby Night Stalker charter who were known to barter goods for slaves to add numbers to their ranks.

The girl was initially met with derision and laughter - there had never been a female member in the charter, nevermind a female child being taken on - but it was a Sergeant who took notice of her. He was able to see beyond her size, the scars her mother had littered down her pelt, and he could see the potential buried. It was then that the Sergeant, a widower named Kizok, spoke up for the girl - arguing that if she wasn't up to the task, he would handle her himself. The girl's golden eyes raised then and Kizok felt a chill roll down his spine. He could never explain the premonition he felt but it seemed as if something had clicked into place and knew he had made the right decision.

The girl was expected to behave as any of the younger recruits might - obnoxiously, remaining underfoot and asking too many questions. But the girl proved to be a studious pupil and it soon became clear that she was small, silent, and sneaky. Physical challenges proved difficult for the wisp, particularly sparring. Kizok took up training the girl himself, finding her to be a new challenge to their usual recruits and becoming increasingly impressed with the child. It was his satisfaction, his pride, in her perhaps that pushed him to love her, or perhaps it was the moment he woke once in the middle of the night to feel the tiny child curled at his back.

As she got older and grew closer with the charter, it was discovered that Nym could speak, albeit haltingly and with little prose, and for the first time, she found kinship in the brotherhood band. She was named Nym, after Nymerah - the famous warrior queen. She found friends and family amongst the Night Stalkers, and eventually was marked with the symbol of the charter. With this initiation, she was officially a Night Stalker of the Sheerwater Cliffs. When she completed her training, she was promoted to Mistress of Whispers and soon began to take on spy missions for the charter.

In time, the Stalkers went to war with a pack from the south - The Dead Brothers of Grimswood. Many were lost in the war, though the Night Stalkers eventually came out on top, including Kizok. The girl was lost without her foster father, her life passing in a blur as she received titles such as "The Daughter of Anarchy" and "The Reaper" for her prowess in battle, helped to seek out the last holds of the Brothers, buried Kizok, and prepared for retaliation from the Brothers' ally.

After the war, Nym was kidnapped while on a recruiting mission beyond the Cliffs. She was captured by one of the last Brothers, and forced to travel with him south where she was sold into slavery.

She was sold as a breeding slave, even though she would be yet to produce children for another year or so. The girl was here for months, enduring tortures and assaults of all natures until she finally lured them into believing the Night Stalker was complacent. She had arrived amongst these peoples at a time of war and one night, when the King sought her body, she slipped poison into his jaws. By the end of the night, she was fleeing north unsuspected while his councillors were in uproar over who would ascend the throne - just as she had planned.

Nym found when she returned to the north that the Night Stalkers were gone as were The Dead Brothers. There was a new charter further to the east by the name of The Grizzled Warriors. She found no familiar faces here and returned south where she ran with the Nomads for a time, an unofficial charter scattered across the north full of creatures like herself.

She grew tired of the endless travelling, the feral counterparts she travelled with, the violence. Shortly after her first birthday, Nym abandoned her memories and headed south where she was soon to come into Teekon and consequently, a new life.

Profile of Nym: Additional Information
Registered on August 01, 2018, last visited (Hidden)
Nym is a mute character. She understands both Inuit languages and English, as she was born in the north, but cannot speak due to her upbringing as she never learned how. Feel free to have your character assume what they will based on her appearance and personality though some points to keep in mind: she's smaller and younger, ranging on the submissive end of the spectrum unless provoked. She has many scars that give the impression of being inflicted in battle, torture, and rape. Mostly, Nym will express herself with vocalizations and body language.
