⊰ GENERAL INFORMATION ⊱Nighean Dorcha (Nee-en Door-ah-kha) is an Elezen Duskwight of unknown origin. At some point during her life, she was convicted as a con artist, and thrown in an unknown Thanalan gaol. Coming into conflict with the other prisoners, she was attacked and suffered amnesia as a result. Kahti Wiht, needing an assistant and claiming want to rehabilitate the woman, made a deal with the guards and rescued her. Nighean served Kahti faithfully for about a year before being released from her service and moving on. Since then, due to events that occurred while in Kahti's service, she has studied Voidsent and passed herself off as an expert on such. She now serves Lady Dusk in such a capacity. She is not known to have combat skill, but claims to be able to hold her own in a fight. ⊰ APPEARANCE ⊱Nighean stands about six-and-a-half fulms tall, and possesses a moderately curvy figure. Her just-past-shoulders-length hair is jet black, and she possesses ash grey skin with discolored streaks on her face. A pair of amber eyes look out from behind armless spectacles which somehow stay on her nose regardless of movement. She is not particularly well-muscled. She she keeps herself clean and her hair brushed, and wears dark-red eye shadow and lipstick. She wears simple floral perfumes that aren't particularly strong. Despite her perfumes, Miqo'tes, with their sensitive noses, have occasionally commented that she smells like "sex and death", something she shrugs off, attributing it to her field of study and active sex life. She favors simple clothing, typically in shades of red and black. She'll wear a pair of dangling earrings, once seeming to change the pair based on where in Hydaelyn she was, but now favoring a pair adorned with flowers. Gracing the middle finger of her left hand is an etched gold ring set with a glowing lavender orb. ⊰ MAGIC ⊱Aetheric inspection of Nighean won't reveal much of interest. She utilizes glamours, and will point out that this practice is not uncommon among well-off people. Wards can also be detected on her, which she explains as being necessary for her field of research. Other than this, she has the aether of a normal Eorzean. ⊰ TIMELINE ⊱Sixth Astral Era ► ? - At some point in her late teens, Nighean was arrested for conning people in Ul'dah. She was thrown in a gaol and left to rot. Seventh Umbral/Astral Era ► ? - Nighean is injured in a riot and loses her memories. ► ? - Kahti Wiht negotiates for Nighean's release under the condition that Nighean becomes her servant and rehabilitates. ► ? - Once finished with her obligation to Kahti, Nighean signs up with Lady Dusk as an advisor. ⊰ SIXTH ASTRAL ERA ⊱?
⊰ SEVENTH UMBRAL / ASTRAL ERA ⊱?
⊰ PERSONALITY ⊱As a (supposedly) reformed con artist, knowing Nighean's true personality can be difficult. Someone interacting with her may find themselves trying to decide if the woman they're being presented with is the truth or another mask. Regardless, she is often patient, forgiving, and slow to anger. A semi-permanent smirk suggests that she is always either confident of her position or amused with the situation at hand.
⊰ RELATIONSHIPS ⊱
⊰ PLAYER POV ⊱Goals Nighean's role in most stories is that of a secondary character. Depending on the story, she can aid the protagonist or antagonist, or even flip between them depending on the situation. Originally, I meant her to be an NPC with no screen time, and she's grown to take a larger role. I'm okay with her being killed or imprisoned, though I prefer such is discussed with me ahead of time. I honestly don't know what my author goals are for this character, but she's fun to play, so I'm just going to keep at it. As with all my characters, I'd like to experience and participate in similar stories with a vast array of characters. I will just as happily interact IC with a paladin as a psychopath. I enjoy IC drama, and I especially adore ethical dilemmas. At the end of the day, though, I want myself and my fellow role players to walk away from a scene satisfied and/or wanting more. Lore Compliance I do try to adhere to lore, for the most part. I know I fall short of perfect lore adherence, usually where I'm ignorant of existing lore. When it comes to unwritten areas of the lore, I'm perfectly happy to make things up, so long as it seems like it would fit in a reasonable and artistic way. I'm also in favor of accepting head canons that appear to be accepted by the group I'm in. In any case, if I'm violating lore as you know it, bring it up to me OOC. Do expect me to ask for sources, though this is more about educating myself than trying to prove you wrong. RP Limits Ultimately, I'm all about an interesting and entertaining story. I don't expect Nighean to take center stage in any plot aside from my own. I'm pretty okay with most themes and twists, as long as they're not overdone. Anything from Light-Hearted Fun to Dark and Violent themes are okay by me, so long as it seems realistic. There are two important caveats, however: First: While I'd normally prefer warnings about things that might make my character unplayable, I realize they can come up with no warning with a character like Nighean...but expect the character to respond appropriately. Second: I will try to abort a scene or plot if I find out it's making someone seriously uncomfortable Out of Character. It's hard to entertain people when they're upset, after all! I'm typically not interested in ERP. That's not a hard "no", but I don't suggest coming after me for it. ⊰ SCREENSHOTS ⊱
⊰ MUSICAL THEMES ⊱Tentatively, these: ● Blue Öyster Cult Cover - Don't Fear The Reaper (Raquel Eugenio Cover) - Reflecting Nighean's comments on death, literally that one should not fear it, as death is an inevitable and natural part of life. ● WildStar OST - Genesis to Revelations - A theme that captures the unsettling presence Nighean sometimes exudes.  |

 ⊰ GENERAL INFORMATION ⊱Nighean is a Voidsent thought to be of the 3rd Rung. Though she claims to be a succubus, this is likely an oversimplification for mortals. Due to a deal she made with a Mhachi Voidmage, she currently haunts the Shakmi Clan, specifically members of the Halanuu bloodline with a focus on Kahti Wiht in particular. She often takes the guise of a distressed damsel or friendly authority figure, stealing the identity of an existing person, preferably a loner. The voidsent remains largely uncontrolled due to her true name being unknown. A few have tried to use brute force against her only to find she regenerates as fast as she is injured. More sophisticated methods have not been tried, and are not likely to be as a result of her supposedly benevolent disposition. She is often outright helpful, though this may be a method of manipulating people. When consuming aether, she prefers when it is "donated" from friendly sources. Failing that, she will seek out maligned persons (slavers are a favorite) and consume them instead. ⊰ APPEARANCE ⊱Nighean often appears as an Elezen or Hyur. As typical for succubi, her form will be pleasant to behold for the average mortal. Regardless of the race of her chosen guise, she'll possess smooth skin, jet black hair, and striking amber eyes. A beauty mark often graces her cheek, along with abstract swirls of discolored skin. A set of horns common to succubus grace her head, though these are typically hidden from the senses of mortals. While still in mortal guise, Nighean will favor clothing that matches her role. A servant will have rather plain clothes fitting the area they are working in, whereas an authority figure will wear clothing befitting their station. Oddly, she wears earrings not fitting for her station - possibly as a compulsion - with each "mirror" favoring a particular set. Her supposed "true form" is as expected for a succubus, straddling the line between beautiful and monstrous, though her claws are far shorter, and she lacks wings. It is unclear that this is her true form, however, as when struck with glamour dispelling magic or devices while in mortal guise, she changes little, aside from her horns appearing. Instead, it is suspected that her monstrous form is simply another glamour to scare victims. ⊰ MAGIC ⊱While Nighean's glamour masks her appearance, wards are used to simultaneously contain and disguise her true nature. While these wards are active, her aether will appear as a normal Eorzean, and her voidal energies will not corrupt the world around her. Without them, her aether appears as a typical voidsent, fully corrupted by voidal energies, with some exception: Overall, Nighean's aether seems somewhat more stable than most voidsent, and for lack of a better description, less "hungry". Observing her aether during feeding will reveal a point where her pool stops filling, as though capped. While this supposed limit is still far beyond that of mortals, it is yet a limit, and may explain her capacity for self-control. Nighean often holds back from using her magic, both to avoid drawing attention to herself, and to not waste it. Even when she does use it, she tends to favor more "mundane" means of casting for the same reasons. Rare occasions call for her to dispose of this mummery, however, and she can be witnessed easily conjuring arcane geometries, runes, and foci out of thin air, seeming to manipulate aether at will. When casting in this manner, she will invariably allow her wards to fail so they don't interfere. ⊰ TIMELINE ⊱Third Astral / Fourth Umbral Eras ► ? - Nighean has no memories before this time. ► ? - Fights for Allag as part of an unremembered pact. ► ? - Finds herself on Azys Lla, as the subject of experiments. ► ? - Banished with other voidsent after turning on the Allagan Researchers during the post calamity chaos. ► ? - Creates her "Mirrors" to deal with her power limitations. Fourth Astral / Fifth Umbral Eras ► ? - Spends countless years in the void, seeking alliances for her protection. ► ? - Learns that the abuse of her "Mirrors" has resulted in large chunks of her memory being lost. ► ? - At some point, she becomes a servant of Scathach. Fifth Astral / Sixth Umbral Eras ► ? - As mortals learn to summon voidsent once more, Nighean is summoned by a Mhachi Voidmage. ► ? - During the following years, Nighean serves the Voidmage and their descendants, being resummoned whenever banished. ► ? - During the Calamity of Water, Nighean is willingly sacrificed to teleport her mistress and their family to safety. ► ? - The descendants of Nighean's mistress band together with other Keepers to form the Shakmi clan. ► ? - Nighean's true name is struck from the records to prevent her resummoning. ► ? - Finds that Scathach and her court have not returned to the void, their fates unknown. Sixth Astral Era ► ?-1555 - Languishes in the void, waiting to be summoned once more. ► 1555 - Near the end of the era, a young mage named "Kahti" accidentally "summons" Nighean. ► 1555-1562 - Shadows Kahti - a descendant of her Mistress - subtly influencing her to attempt void summoning. ► 1563 - Successful, Nighean interrupts Kahti's ritual and takes the place of the would-be summoned voidsent. ► 1563-1572 - Posing as "Cadal", Nighean serves Kahti and raises her youngest daughter, Sahli, until the Calamity. Seventh Umbral/Astral Era ► 0 - Protects Shakmi Clan and Kahti from the Calamity, Fakes "Cadal's" destruction. ► 0-4 - Works to build her power while watching over Kahti and Shakmi Clan. ► 5-? - After Kahti recovers, Nighean once more interrupts her attempts to summon, posing as the would-be summoned voidsent. ► ? - Due to Zohka Feniq's involvement, Nighean reveals the truth of herself to Kahti. ⊰ THIRD ASTRAL / FOURTH UMBRAL ERAS ⊱Nighean's memories of this time are scattered and blurred, and she has no memories of a time before it. She has visions of fighting for Allag against Meracydia, and of being poked and prodded by researchers in Azys Lla. She vaguely recalls the chaos wrought by the Calamity of Earth, even among the staff at Azys Lla. She recalls seducing Allagan Researchers, and joining her voidsent kin as they tried to break free. Strangely, her inevitable banishment to the void feels to her as a betrayal whenever she thinks of it. She found herself limited, perhaps by experiments of the Allagan Researchers. It was during this time that she created her mirrors: copies of herself imbued with a portion of her essence and will. Though her mirrors were likewise limited, working together they were more powerful than one alone would be, seemingly without drawback. ⊰ FOURTH ASTRAL / FIFTH UMBRAL ERAS ⊱While Eorzean civilization recovered from the Calamity and the destruction of the Allagan Empire, Nighean drifted in the void. In the chaotic realm, Nighean learned of the drawback of her mirrors after several had already been destroyed: Whenever one was destroyed, she would lose the memories "stored" within. Unwilling to give up the power, but needing better protection, she sought out more "reasonable" denizens of the void to ally herself with. She soon found herself serving the Shadow Queen, Scathach. Though far from a proper member of the court, the position afforded her the protection she needed. By observing the machinations of the court, she further learned ways to improve her survivability, recovering skills she no doubt lost through the destruction of her mirrors. ⊰ FIFTH ASTRAL / SIXTH UMBRAL ERAS ⊱The rise of Mhach saw voidsent once more being summoned to Hydaelyn, Nighean among them. After a few different voidmages fell to her wiles, she found herself in the service of a Voidmage named "Gauri Halanuu". An old Keeper of the Moon, Unlike many voidmages then and since, she didn't summon Nighean for personal power or the destruction of her enemies. Gauri foresaw the inevitable destruction of Mhach, and would have the nearly eternal voidsent serve and protect her and her descendants. In return, they would see that Nighean was always resummoned, and her hunger satiated. Nighean agreed, and served the Halanuu family well until the Calamity of Water. As the great flood swept the land, Nighean expended much of her power to teleport them to safety. "Safety", in this case, consisted of a large boat built by another, industrious group of Keepers: The Erda Family. The Erda family, however, had already rescued a third family: Shakmi. Citizens of Amdapor, Shakmi very nearly came to blows with Halanuu before Nighean once more stepped in to protect her charges, allowing them to banish her in return for sparing Halanuu. In truth, Nighean was too weak to defend against the white mages, and knew that Halanuu would summon her back eventually. What she had failed to predict is how Shakmi would find the grimoires of Halanuu and strike Nighean's name from them. Nighean found herself returned to the void, and soon found herself alone. Scathach and her court, unknown to her, were bound by Mhach to power their "Void Ark". Without the court for protection, Nighean resolved to avoid the other voidsent, awaiting the summoning she was sure would come. ⊰ SIXTH ASTRAL ERA ⊱?-1555 While Nighean languished in the void, the three Keeper families banded together to form the Shakmi clan. Though the Shakmi and Erda families largely forgot about the past, the matriarchs of Halanuu kept the embers of the truth alive. Around the time of the clan resettling in the southern Twelveswood, a strange quirk of fate saw a would-be Halanuu Matriarch raised by the Shakmi family, then eventually made clan Matriarch. Realizing she had no one to pass the knowledge to, Galda Halanuu resolved to extend her life until a worthy successor came along. At first, the twins Kahti and Halse Shakmi - gave Galda hope. Only one could be matriarch, and the competitive nature of the two would drive the other into Galda's waiting arms. Unfortunately, Kahti's recklessness saw her banished from the Shroud...but not before her rash actions tore a hole in the veil between worlds, allowing Nighean to once again enter Hydaelyn. Sensing a descendant of Gauri in Kahti, Nighean took the body of a poacher slayed by Kahti's reckless magics. She fed on the dying to replenish herself and stay the hand of death from the girl long enough for Nadi Shakmi - Kahti's mother - to find and mend her daughter. Curious as to why it took so long for her to be resummoned, and even then by accident, Nighean quickly found Galda and learned of what had transpired in her absence. Galda and Nighean came to the agreement that she could not remain around the clan for long, as the clan sentiments now allied with those of Gridania, and were particularly hostile towards voidsent. Instead, Nighean would shadow and protect Kahti. 1555-1562 Nighean swiftly picked up on something that Galda either didn't realize, or was smart enough not to admit to the voidsent: Without Nighean's name, Gauri's descendants couldn't directly control her. Though she was still bound to protect and serve them, she was fully free to decide how to do that. And, of course, what better way to protect and serve her charges than by ensuring her own power was secure? To that end, rather than simply shadow Kahti, she began "whispering" to the girl's heart, guiding her to once more seek black magic, and then the power of the void. After all, if she was to guide the girl and her descendants, she'd need them to be comfortable with the void. Simply showing up when Kahti was already wounded by her attempt at black magic and leary of Voidsent would not earn her any trust. Kahti needed to choose - or think she chose - to summon Nighean. Knowing the girl wouldn't be tempted by a simple lust for power, instead, she planned to tempt the girl with the same desire that had tempted Gauri: The need to protect her family. For that, Kahti needed a family. Thus, Nighean guided Kahti and Mhrad'to together. She whispered to their hearts to help their romance blossom, then encouraged the desire to have children, despite not having the resources to properly raise one. With the birth of Sehti, Nighean began work on convincing Mhrad'to to return to the Shroud. Likewise, she worked to convince Kahti that Mhrad'to would reject her if she told him why she couldn't return. She further whispered ideas on keeping Mhrad'to with carnal temptations. While Kahti tried to tempt Mhrad'to, Nighean decided to try an experiment, and tainted Mhrad'to's seed with her own essence. Delivered into Kahti, it would not only ensure a child would come of the union, but that child would have a mildly voidal nature. With another child on the way, Kahti's stress and desperation peaked. At this point, Nighean began whispering into Kahti's heart that she look to her magic for a solution, guiding her to the rituals to summon voidsent. 1563-1572 Shortly after the birth of Sahli, Kahti attempted her summoning. Nighean ensured that the ritual was flawed, and would not actually call a voidsent into Eorzea. Instead, Nighean played the part of the summoned voidsent, calling herself "Cadal". When Kahti offered Mhrad'to's body for her to possess in exchange for "Cadal" helping to raise her children, she accepted...knowing full well she was bound to look after them anyway. A combination of her bond to Halanuu, and her agreement with Kahti saw Nighean raising the two children faithfully. Sehti from the start was suspicious of change her father had apparently gone through, but Sahli knew only her father possessed. Thus, Nighean focused her attention on Sahli, guiding her. Though Kahti suspected the voidsent would manipulate her child, she didn't expect the result would be the delightful woman Sahli grew up to be. Sahli would eventually be the example people would point to in defense of Nighean, and she wouldn't be alone. Not long before the calamity, Sehti - through the course of her studies - realized the presence of the voidsent among them, resulting in a divide between her and her mother. When the girl left, she took her sister with her, leaving Nighean to spend "quality time" with Kahti. She didn't worry about the children, for while she had worked on Kahti, her side project had been summoning her mirrors to Eorzea. One of those Mirrors was already watching over the clan. ⊰ SEVENTH UMBRAL / ASTRAL ERA ⊱0-4 The Seventh Umbral Calamity did not leave Nighean unscathed. A large amount of power from each mirror was required to keep to her pact with Halanuu, protecting the Clan home, Kahti, and various other members of the Halanuu bloodline scattered across Eorzea. Forced to step back, Nighean faked the destruction of "Cadal", and returned to protecting her charges from the shadows. With the presence of the Mirrors, however, she could expand her efforts even as she was forced to step back. One of her mirrors set about laying the foundations for her long-term plans, manipulating disenfranchised mortals to form a small cult devoted to her, and do her bidding in places where a voidsent's own actions would be hampered. Between her mirrors and her cult, Nighean began to feel very secure about her position in Eorzea. 5-? Pending
⊰ PERSONALITY ⊱Even disregarding the tendency of Nighean's mirrors to empathize a quirk of personality, knowing Nighean's true personality is difficult. She can and will behave radically differently depending on which mirror one is interacting with, those around her, and whether or not she is wearing a mask. Given a mask, she will behave according to the role that mask plays. Without her mask, or otherwise when mortals discover her true nature, how she behaves generally depends on how much hostility she senses. To a hostile mortal, she is vicious and uncompromising. She'll laugh and tease, as though a potentially deadly meeting is little more than a game. She'll act as though she has the upper hand, seeming to back down on a whim, or perhaps because she's grown bored. To a friendly mortal, she is far more pleasant, and will act in whatever manner she thinks they'll enjoy. When it comes to deals with such mortals, Nighean can be very "soft" with them, usually offering downright reasonable terms free of tricks and deceptions. Nighean is more than aware of how useful a friendly being can be, and will work to maintain such relationships. In any case, she is known to be crafty, but her means of manipulating people generally don't involve out-thinking them. Instead, she appeals to their emotions and desires, often enticing mortals with little more than a friendly ear and a shoulder to lean on. Above all, however, she is patient. When faced with a mortal opponent who can better her, she'll walk away, knowing full well she only has to wait for them to expire.
⊰ RELATIONSHIPS ⊱
⊰ PLAYER POV ⊱Goals Nighean is a pseudo-antagonist. By this, I mean she can function as an antagonist or as a helpful side character, depending on the story. Originally, I meant her to be an NPC with no screen time, and she's grown to take a larger role. Actually destroying her will take some doing, beyond your usual hack and slash, so I welcome whatever. I honestly don't know what my author goals are for this character, but she's fun to play, so I'm just going to keep at it. As with all my characters, I'd like to experience and participate in similar stories with a vast array of characters. I will just as happily interact IC with a paladin as a psychopath. I enjoy IC drama, and I especially adore ethical dilemmas...though with Nighean, it's more about presenting them than receiving them. At the end of the day, though, I want myself and my fellow role players to walk away from a scene satisfied and/or wanting more. A note on names, origins and goals: Nighean has an actual, true name hidden in my notes. It will only be revealed through roleplay, so don't ask. Her ultimate motives and origin are likewise hidden. Lore Compliance I do try to adhere to lore, for the most part. I know I fall short of perfect lore adherence, usually where I'm ignorant of existing lore. When it comes to unwritten areas of the lore, I'm perfectly happy to make things up, so long as it seems like it would fit in a reasonable and artistic way. I'm also in favor of accepting head canons that appear to be accepted by the group I'm in. In any case, if I'm violating lore as you know it, bring it up to me OOC. Do expect me to ask for sources, though this is more about educating myself than trying to prove you wrong. RP Limits Ultimately, I'm all about an interesting and entertaining story. I don't expect Nighean to take center stage in any plot aside from my own. I'm pretty okay with most themes and twists, as long as they're not overdone. Anything from Light-Hearted Fun to Dark and Violent themes are okay by me, so long as it seems realistic. There are two important caveats, however: First: While I'd normally prefer warnings about things that might make my character unplayable, I welcome them with Nighean...but expect the character to respond appropriately. Second: I will try to abort a scene or plot if I find out it's making someone seriously uncomfortable Out of Character. It's hard to entertain people when they're upset, after all! I'm typically not interested in ERP. That's not a hard "no", but I don't suggest coming after me for it. ⊰ SCREENSHOTS ⊱
⊰ MUSICAL THEMES ⊱Tentatively, these: ● AG & Brad Gordon - Terrible Thing - It's hard to contest that Nighean is both a beautiful and terrible thing. ● Kerli - Savages - When Nighean is playing a submissive sexual role to lure "savage mortals" to their end. ● In This Moment - Sick Like Me - When Nighean is in an rare, honest relationship. ● Milck - Devil Devil - Contemplating the machinations of other voidsent and maligned entities. ● Dark Souls III - Dancer of The Boreal Valley - Battle theme for Nighean as an antagonist. ⊰ TV TROPES ⊱Personality/World View ► Noble Demon - Even the most cynical eye has to admit Nighean can be downright benevolent. ► Affably Evil - Nighean's pleasant demeanor isn't an act. ► Long Game - She can wait. Abilities ► Sinister Scythe - Nighean favors a scythe when holding back, typically for symbolism. ► Casting A Shadow - Nighean's combat magic. ► Magic Mirror - She enjoys using mirrors for communication and as gates. ► Telepathy - Nighean can read surface thoughts and send little whispers to them. ► Speak Of The Devil - Saying any of Nighean's names (true or not) in a mirror three times will get her attention. Weaknesses ► I Know Your True Name - How to control Nighean...if only someone could find it. ► Geas - Nighean is bound to protect Gauri's descendants. The exact terms are terribly loose, however. ► Cast From Hit Points - If deprived (or unwilling) to use an external source, Nighean's magic becomes this. Mirrors ► Self Duplication - Of course, though it takes a lot of effort. ► Literal Split Personality - Each mirror leans hard towards a specific trait. ► Hive Mind - Good luck playing the mirrors against each other. ► Soul Jar - Each mirror is essentially this. ► Laser Guided Amnesia - What happens when a Mirror is destroyed.
