History
Though being the firstborn of her parents lineage, Nykkus was the second child for the couple, having adopted the son of their friends, who both tragically perished. The boys father giving his life to defend their homeland from beast tribe incursions, the mother only weeks later in a mining accident.
As fate would have it an unscrupulous Hyur merchant, having braved the trip to Abalathia's Spine saw an opportunity in the couple and convinced them to follow Hellsguard tradition in giving up the girl, despite her still being an infant. He took her to the black markets of Ala Mhigo where the wealthy were known to purchase the latest and greatest. Sure enough, a noble family with an interest in having a trophy child adopted her as their own.
She was enrolled in the best academies and training programs the city-state had to offer. No expense was spared, no request was denied. However being the single Roegadyn among her peers was a difficulty, and she soon became aggressive towards others. Her strength soon attracted notice and found her enrolled in military training academies, where she was tutored by a Sea Wolf lieutenant who understood her better than any other. Skyltbhar Agatgeisssyn became her mentor, her father figure, and her only true ally. He taught her all he knew of the Hellsguard, all he knew of their ancient language, and all he knew of warfare and discipline. By the time she entered military ranks proper, she was among the youngest ever recorded being just 14, and faced a promising future with an officer recommendation within weeks of enlistment.
Her looks became noticed as well, and soon she was called "The Rose of Abania". She served for a year in a prestigious guard unit, taking leadership of the group just over a month before the Empire came. Though she had held her unit together though the tyranny of their king, the tumultuous day to day business of keeping order in a self destructing city, and the initial purging of Theodric's enemies, her unit is one of a select few that choose to fight their "liberators", seeing the Empire for what they truly are. The excessive use of airship might to put down the initial resistance causes much damage to the city and surrounding areas and breeds a mistrust and hatred of the technology in Nykkus.
After the loss of the city, she joined a group of former soldiers still using guerrilla warfare tactics to hamper Imperial forces and cause losses where possible. The unit is led by a powerful ex-soldier named Rhuvian Vastitas who, unbeknownst to Nykkus, supported their king in his campaigns against his own people. Soon his charisma and leadership have all convinced to follow him blindly and they begin to strike at any target of opportunity, including the outlying villages and caravans of refugees trying to flee to the Shroud.
