Name: Nyte Gnarus
Age: 23
Gender: Female
Race: Dragoon (Spirit of Shadow)
Appearance: Nyte's stands at nearly 6 foot, and has a slender build. She has moonlight silver eyes, and her hair is pitch black. Nyte's hair is now quite long compared to what it once was 5 years ago, and now reaches to her mid-back. Though it is sometimes annoying, her bangs hang all down in her face, giving her a somewhat eerie look. Her features are somewhat sharp, and her face is angular. Her dragoon armour consits of a chest plate, leg armour up to the knee, gauntlets and arm band armour, headband armour, and armoured boots, all the colour of Black, Grey, and some deep crimson. Underneath her armour, Nyte wears a plain, longsleeved grey shirt, and long legged black pants. Over her grey shirt she wears a navy tunic. Her boots are brown, and reach halfway up her shins.
Bio: When Nyte was a young child, around six, her parents were killed by a Gryphon Rider Hunting party. One of the Gryphon Riders had cornered she and her best friend at the top of the mountain. With no other options, the two leapt from the cliff they had been cornered on. Seperated durring the fall, Nyte was now six, and on her own. She had just barely made it away, thanks to her mother's sacrifice, and now she was completely alone. Some branches broke her fall, almost killing her, but she managed to struggle through. That very night, she had tripped on a deep purple-ish stone and faceplanted into the mud. That was the Dragoon Spirit of Shadow. Without realizing it, two days later, she mistakenly bonded with it. However, thanks to that, she survived as a six year old orphan. Nyte quickly became best friends with her dragoon spirit, as it had practically raised her from the age of six. Now, at the age of 18, Nyte wanders the world in search of the Gryphon rider who had killed her parents. One night she met a young man whom she came to call Catio. Catio was, for the most part, a helpless young man. He couldn't even defend himself properly from attack, let alone weild a sword. Taking slight pity on him, Nyte offered to teach him self-defence training. Catio, like her, was a Dragoon. Their meeting was a strange one, but a friendship was eventually forged. Catio had actually been the first person since she was orphaned that actually made her laugh. An incident happened in town, resulting in both of them being kicked out of town for merely being Dragoon. After leaving the city, they were attacked by a small band of Zombies. Nyte was wounded, but not seriously. After that, Nyte split up from Catio for one reason or another. She intended to return to him in not more than one moon, but as luck would have it, she was unable to. As she glided through the sky, a certain familiar Gryphon Rider. It was the rider that had slaughtered her family and destroyed her home. After a decisive, yet amazingly close battle, Nyte was defeated, and fell from the sky. She crashed into a stable, landing in one of the horses stalls. Arm and ribs broken, Nyte struggled from the wreckage, and has been on her own and healing ever since. Durring this time, she has been searching for Catio, wondering sadly what had become of him. Her only friend, and he was already gone....
In the past five years since all of the strife in the world, Nyte layed low. She fought when she had to, ran when she was forced to, and basically kept herself safe. However, she chose to fight alongside the other races against the fiend of Battle City, her efforts going unnoticed. After the terror was slain, his heart ripped wholey from him, the rage between races errupted once more. Once again, Dragoon and Gryphon Riders were at war. She refused to become involved in wars that served no purpose. All the while, she was searching fervently for Catio. Why? She wasn't quite sure. An individual such as Catio had never come across her before, and, though she hated to admit it, she had become quite attached to him. She was used to having him at her side, and she missed their conversations. Her searching soon became an obsession. Everywhere she went, she asked around for him, devistated when she could not find him. Finally, after three years of searching, Nyte gave up her search. Perhaps the foolish young man had gone and gotten himself killed in a war that was not his own. Either way, Nyte felt empty, incomplete. She turned cold, colder than she had ever been. Vowing to herself, she promised that she would never get close to another person. People only hurt you. No people, no pain. Simple as that. Having been seen as a traitor by the Dragoon for abandoning them durring their war with the Gryphon Riders, she does not go anywhere near their capital. Enemy of the Gryphon Riders, she does not stray close to their terra either. Instead, she wanders, often among humans, just living life from day to day.
Personality: Though it seems as if Nyte's looks could kill, it is somewhat the opposite. Though she doesn't trust easily, and she is reserved, she is not mean. Mostly, she keeps to herself and minds her own business. The only time she much cares to socialize is when she speaks with her Dragoon spirit, Nox. They are quite good friends. Even though she is reserved, if she sees someone in need of help, she will lend a hand. Since the run in with the Gryphon Rider, Nyte has become cold and cruel. She still makes an effor to at least appear kind, yet she is now bitter, and without Catio, slightly miserable. Who knew she would have missed him this much?
Special talents: Nyte has a slightly peculiar weapon that she is very proficient with. It is like a whip, but not quite. The handle is a tad longer than on a normal whip, but thats not the main difference. There is a blade at the end of the whip that looks remenicant of a small axe blade. The string is also sharp, and will slice anyone on contact. This is a weapon you cannot just pick up and use. It needs training. When she is not using it, the blades retract, the string winds up, the handle elongates, and it takes the form of a long metal staff.
Weaknesses/Strengths: Nyte's main strength is her quick and physical nature. Whoever wrote the book of battles started that strong fighters cannot be quick, and quick fighters are usually weak. Nyte combines the best of both worlds. She is amazingly swift, and she can dole out a proper thrashing of prompted to. However, her main weakness is that against magic. Early on she had realized this and had come up with ways to defend herself from magic, but she is much better at physical combat. Every Dragoon has magic, and so does Nyte. Since her element is Darkness, it goes to say that Light would be her opposing element, and she would therefore be weak against it.
