CODEX
Early Life:

Nimue lost her parents early, casualties of Andruil's wrath, only her skill of shapeshifting saved her from the blaze that had engulfed her home. Slithering away, the young mage survived in her wildshape until exhaustion reverted her back.

Teenage Years:

Nin worked her way up the crew of street rats to eventually help take some responsibility leading up the scouts of the gang. Her shapeshifting developed further into communing with snakes, using them as another tool while keeping tabs on members.

Adult Life:

Was it love? She never knew for certain. He never said otherwise.

All she knew for certain was that together they made a good team, running the streets, picking the right targets and jobs that they knew they could handle. Even if they fought like dogs in public, the war was won privately, in bed, in his lap. Until it wasn't.

Something happened. Gods knew what, perhaps an arguement that cut too close and sent both of them apart, Nin would be unable to recall.

Life After Sleeping:

Nimue woke with no memory of her past, not even her name survived the sleep of Uthenara. She stumbled out of the chamber, finding daylight eventually through the tunnels and a little information about herself. Magic, the comforting hum in the background was the only constant. Her unfamiliarity with her surroundings and the people she wandered into led her down a path of slavery, whisked away to foreign shores that became known to her as Tevinter.

Current Situation:

Enslaved, Nimue serves in one of the prestigious brothels in Minrathous. The loss of the barrier brought no relief to her, Despair sought her out quickly and while she maintains her dominance over the brothel hierarchy, there is little joy in her life.

TIMELINE

Personality

Resourceful and Tenacious: Nimue excels at turning the tables, surviving and thriving in situations that would break others. She adapts with a calculating mind, a trait honed in the streets and reinforced in Tevinter.

Guarded: Trust is a rare and fragile thing to her. Even as she navigates her new life with charm and grace, she keeps a tight rein on her true emotions and motives.

Introspective and Haunted: The loss of her memory weighs heavily on her. Nimue often questions her actions and motivations, seeking fragments of who she was while grappling with what she has become.

Compassionate Beneath the Armor: Though she rarely shows it, there is a tenderness buried deep within her. It manifests in moments of vulnerability, in the rare acts of kindness she offers when no one is looking.

Determined and Independent: Despite her circumstances, Nimue’s will remains unbroken. She is fiercely determined to regain her freedom and uncover the truth of her past, whatever the cost.

Nimue’s demeanor can shift effortlessly from coy and beguiling to cold and calculating, depending on her needs. She has a sharp tongue and a talent for reading people, often using their desires and fears to her advantage. Though deeply independent, she struggles with a sense of loneliness, yearning for connections even as she pushes others away.

Possessions

Nimue has few possessions, most of it is provided by the brothel or are gifts from patrons who visit her.

She has a pendant, a simple black pearl that hangs on a chord of leather, but no memory of who gave it to her or how she acquired it.

Lyrics/Quotes

"I learned early that mercy is a luxury, not a virtue."

"I don’t need promises—I need proof."

"In this place, freedom is a currency I don’t have… yet."

"I play their games because I must, not because I enjoy it."

"I woke up a stranger to myself. The worst part? No one else knows me either."

"The fire in me doesn’t die—it smolders, waiting for the right wind."

"Hope isn’t gone—it’s just buried under years of scars and shadows."
