Style
Timid. Right-handed. A few. Tattoos over his brow. Functional, well-worn.
Hair & Eyes
Pale brown eyes, often sunken. He keeps his blonde hair short and brushed back from his face. His chin often has a respectable scruff going.
Physique & Markings
Nico is relatively in shape despite any hardships that might keep him bedridden. He has a few facial scars and a much larger tapestry of scarring on his right leg. It never quite healed right after shattering so he can sometimes be found with a cane or under the influence of heavy painkillers.
Hygiene & Attire
His clothes are often threadbare and his weapons and tools in the same state. He has little in the way of money and what he makes generally goes towards his food, medical needs, and his chocobo. He's reasonably clean for his means.
Personality
General
Nico is a timid, polite man who shies from confrontation and aggressive individuals. Despite a life wrought with misfortune he remains carefully optimistic and can often be found dispensing soft-spoken good cheer and helpful advice to both strangers and friends. He’s quick to come to someone’s aid, despite whatever hardship it causes him, but often promises more than he can possibly offer. In this way he has a history of disappointing others, something which darkens his moods on occasion, especially when he’s suffering from an acute bout of the chronic sickness that plagues him.
Voice
Soft and unhurried, sometimes slurred or stuttered when he’s not feeling well.
Philosophy & Mannerisms
He’s uncertain in most things, hesitant to impose himself upon others. In this way he often comes off as awkward or stiff, especially if he finds himself in loud, rambunctious gatherings. He’s determined to do his best, even if he’s not sure what to make of the world and the people in it.

OOC Note
I prefer freeform combat, but also rely on dice in situations where both characters seem more evenly matched and it's requested. I've no problem with Nico getting his ass kicked (and often) so long as there's no blatant god-moding that wasn't agreed upon beforehand. It is unlikely that Nico would participate in any fighting, however.



History
.
Disclaimer: .


Sixth Astral Era
Childhood
One of three children to a pair of chocobo breeders in the Shroud, Nico and his twin sister showed signs of a chronic illness from an early age. Often suffering bouts of weakness and hazy vision, the pair of them were treated delicately and excused from most of the more laborious chores of their parents’ profession. Nevertheless they both became accomplished caretakers of chocobos and other birds. Nico’s aspirations drew him to the sport of chocobo racing and he was about to be apprenticed to a local jockey when the Calamity struck.

Seventh Umbral Era
Adulthood
Though set back a year, Nico remained steadfast in his desire to ride and care for racing chocobos. He apprenticed to a different jockey, one visiting from Thanalan. Though reluctant to leave his family, his parents urged him to follow the path he desired most, despite their own fears for his well-being. Nico decided to pursue jockeying, and for several years he enjoyed remarkable success. It wasn’t until he suffered an accident mid-race that his aspirations were brought to a halt. Rather than return home permanently and burden his family, he decided to continue to seek his happiness in Thanalan, returning to the Shroud to visit or pursue various odd jobs.

In Recent Times
Moving Forward
He continues to live in his meager way, lately keeping more to the woods and deserts to live off the land.
