TROLL!
NAME: Nimmue Lefaye Nimmue: Corruption of the name Nimue, the name of the enchantress Lady of the Lake in Arthurian legend. Lefaye: Derived from Morgan le Faye, the name of another enchantress in Arthurian legend.
BLOOD COLOR Witch’s Brew; #491E75
GENDER: Female
SYMBOL: Star wand
PROFILE: Nimmue is very much a troll bound to her history and Lusus. Entrusted with a tome containing ancient Alternian medicine and alchemy - often referenced by Nimmue as her WITHCRAFT - by her Lusus when she was still a wriggler, Nimmue wanders the world to study and become the best witch in the universe. She finds no discomfort in her odd wandering lifestyle, so long as she has her Lusus by her side for guidance and support. With Owlfather's whisperings about the troll he had raised many sweeps ago, Nimmue idolizes the ancestors of Alternia's past. She is determined to do just as much good as the creator of her tome had done, hoping to use her talents to eventually aid the fleets of adult trolls conquering planets across the galaxy.
As a purpleblood, Nimmue's opinion on the hemospectrum may seem odd, but is majorly influenced by her frequent traveling across Alternia. She uses her status as a tool, but has no qualms or many thoughts of those in the warmer hemospectrum, especially given her current residence in Chittentown - she intermingles with others of different bloodcolors quite easily, often especially unaware of some of the intimidation others of warmer bloodcolors may feel about her presence. One bias Nimmue does hold is that trolls on different parts of the hemospectrum are more inclined towards certain types of skills and interests, both of which are cores to Nimmue's own motivations and personality. Having rarely seen other purplebloods, this bias Nimmue has usually has her immediately magnetized towards others of the same caste, hoping they have the same love for applied 'witchcraft' that she may have.
In lieu of hobbies and interests, Nimmue has A Lot of Them. Nimmue is a very studious troll, and she is always seeking to expand her knowledge and skills base. As a big fan of Terror Night, a lot of Nimmue's hobbies center around preparing for it sweepround - costuming, candymaking, and decoration included. While these hobbies include a crafty hand, a big part of it for Nimmue is also the collecting, allowing her to travel to different places to gather the perfect materials for her projects. Nimmue also has a great love for stargazing and making jewelry.
STRENGTHS: (+) HORRENDOUSLY DETERMINED: If there is one thing Nimmue doesn't comprehend at all, it's when or how to quit. Despite her status as a purpleblood, Nimmue's constant travels came with their own unique hardships, and the feeling of inferiority compared to adult trolls have been constant. It's steeled Nimmue's determination throughout many sweeps, and now, she is only ever optimistic about improving herself and her craft. (+) YOUR SELF APPOINTED LIFE COACH: Just as Nimmue doesn't let herself give up, she doesn't allow others to, either. Nimmue thrives on social interaction, finding a great thrill in meeting trolls across Alternia and learning their own ambitions. Driven by Alternia's future success and wellbeing, Nimmue always extends support to other trolls to improve themselves. (+) FLEXIBILITY IS KEY: Nimmue has an immense abiliy to adapt to new situations, places, and people, and is malleable to most changes, using them as learning tools. With Owlfather constantly providing for her needs, Nimmue has never wanted for much, and is never in doubt that anything and anyone can be replaced if need be.
FLAWS: (-) PUSH IS ALWAYS SHOVE: Nimmue might think that things are always a Ray of Sunshine, but many others don't, and she doesn't always acknowledge that. Being a Self Appointed Life Coach can come with its own detriments - Nimmue can often attach herself to others and try to push others in ways that they can't handle or are uncomfortable by. Her stubbornness can make it difficult for her to understand that not everything in life has to be fast-paced and perfect. (-) SELF UNAWARENESS: As a purpleblood with an attentive Lusus, an immense wealth, and personalized education, Nimmue has had many boons in her life that many trolls were not afforded. Nimmue isn't aware of her own privileges, many times, and is constantly overestimating and assuming that other trolls are offered the same opportunities that she has had. Because of this, she is easy to criticize trolls if she thinks they aren't making the most of their lives. This often presents Nimmue as being prissy, or somewhat of an elitist. (-) DYNAMITE ANGER: When there is a moral disagreement, or Nimmue feels as though someone is trying to personally attack her, Nimmue's patience wears very thin very quickly. If she is irritated, it can turn into a blistering, vengeful anger, and she is quick to challenge others to duel or otherwise prove her mettle against them. Her competitive streak is fierce, and Nimmue can be violent if not in full control of her emotions.
APPEARANCE: Nimmue Lefaye is a Proper Witch, dressing in clean-cut formal attire when she can, adding ruffles and glitter to add a personal flair to her outfit where she can. The one constant Nimmue has on her person is her pointed grey witch's hat, which has a band identifying her place in the hemospectrum, and a golden wand pin.
As a young troll, Nimmue is about average in height. She has pointed, small horns, protruding her pointed hat, and one fang that sticks out when she smiles. Nimmue also has poofy hair cut at shoulder length, which she keeps perfectly clean at all times.

LUSUS!
Nimmue's Lusus is a giant owl, spanning several yards, with long legs and a crown on his head - reminiscent of PRINCE STOLAS from Ars Goetia lore. Nimmue affectionately calls her Lusus OWLFATHER. A silent, scholarly type, Owlfather is Nimmue's mentor and a determined mount who flies Nimmue wherever she pleases, making travel incredibly simple. Owlfather had once raised another purpleblood ladytroll many, many sweeps ago, having assisted in the creation of her tome and returning to the caverns only after she had passed away. As a proud Lusus, Owlfather imparts his previous charge's wisdoms and learnings to Nimmue frequently.
Owlfather is a scholar, helping Nimmue extract information from her ancient tome and teaching her in the ways of ancient herbology, astronomy, and alchemy. He speaks in whispers and employs the respect of trolls across the hemospectrum as employees under Nimmue's orders, namely to construct hives wherever she pleases across Alternia. Despite Owlfather's discipline while teaching, he's also prone to spoil Nimmue, offering her the world, so long as it doesn't interrupt her studies.

HIVE!
Nimmue's hive is a very out of place mansion in CHITTENTOWN, located on a hill surrounded in wildlife. It is extremely easy for Nimmue to navigate up the difficult terrain encompassing her hive, since her Owlfather is there to provide an easy air ride in and out of the mansion. Given how sociable Nimmue is, her hive's location doesn't help the looming sense of loneliness she feels when other trolls do not accept her invitations to parties at her hive. Nimmue tolerates the location anyway, as it is an ideal place to gather the ingredients necessary to create her elixirs.
The hivemansion itself has two stories - the upstairs quarters, where Nimmue's respiteblock and toyrooms are, the ground level, where Nimmue's kitchen and dining hall are, and the downstairs floor, where Nimmue's study and Owlfather's dwelling place is. The ceilings reach high and each room has enough room for a very small hivestem. The walls, made of stone, make the inside of the castle very frigid during the cold nights.
