[h2]25 | Female | Knight | Stealth[/h2]

[h2]Personality:[/h2] 
Easily amused and has never worked with a stranger, Nym’s personality can be considered polarizing. Often, she doesn’t seem to be taking the situation seriously. Other times, she may seem too quick to lash out. Nym can be bad with formalities and boundaries, often immediately trying to bond with or find common ground with those around her without hesitation.

[h2]Background:[/h2] 
Nym grew up in an impoverished family living in the slums. The kids’ father left early on and their mother struggled to make ends meet working several jobs at a time. Nym worked illegally from a young age to contribute to the household, giving up any hope of schooling or a more favored career path to help ensure their home life was as stable as possible and try to help her younger siblings succeed. When her siblings set on their own paths, Nym found herself in a less than savory lifestyle and wanting out.

She sought out a path to becoming a knight and committed herself entirely. She worked tirelessly to achieve her goals and master the [i]ki[/i] within herself. For the first two years, she trained herself, getting occasional pointers from other Knights. Eventually, she caught the attention of Jaxon Crux who saw an impressive amount of drive in the young woman. He took to her immediately and became a mentor, taking her through a more intensive regimen and bringing her to make much more rapid progress. 

Other than Crux, Nym has mostly put her social life on the back burner for the better part of four years now. Crux is the closest thing Nym has to a friend, due to this. Vance visited home frequently as her mother found it hard to transition so suddenly from a full home to an empty one. When she lost her mother rather abruptly due to a heart condition, Nym threw herself into her passion completely. She now has a rather estranged relationship with both of her younger siblings and a strong desire to distract herself.

Though Nym has been on this path for years, she still considers herself lacking in field experience in comparison to most other knights she happens across. She does maintain contact with Crux. He gave her the moniker Jackal, insisting it “just fit”. Vance never opposed it, instead opting to use it similar to a title of honor. 

[h2]Equipment:[/h2]

• thin, lightweight protective torso and back plate to protect the most vital areas of her body without sacrificing mobility

• Harness that wraps around her hips and right thigh, additional clips are stored on the left hip as is the holster for her pistol. The collapsed bow has a storage slot that runs from the lower part of her thigh up to her hip, quiver slings diagonally across her back.

[h2]Abilities:[/h2]
Nym’s mastery of [i]ki[/i] has left her more durable and able to heal much faster as well as increasing her speed and agility. Another noticeable change was the increase in her eyesight. She’s able to see better details at further distances now than she could before which assists her when she opts for a ranged attack.

[h2]Extra:[/h2]
Despite carrying two very different weapons on opposite halves of her body, Nym is not ambidextrous and would struggle trying to operate two weapons at once independently. Additionally, though her strength was increased, Nym finds herself to be physically weaker than most knights. As such, she tries to keep a safe distance in combat.[/center][/hider]
