#cus i learned to detach from people super easily because of it

[jitter-bugz]

It’s interesting to remember that my real first memory— not my first conscious memory (that was when I was four and in Georgia)— was of me being pushed in a stroller, into a chapel with a singing congregation in Utah. When I say I can’t remember my life before church, this is what I mean.

Personality-

Niyo is for the most part a kind good person and enjoys knowing if she’s helped someone. She’s very relaxed. Once she warms up to those around her you can see her more playful, charming,  even cheeky and goofy side. She puts up with a lot of the servants’ antics but can and WILL absolutely join in any chaotic fun that appeals to her, even making something if things are too quiet (example that’s a project I want to work on: holds a tournament that would equate to an event of sorts for her servants).

If you show her a fair amount of attention (and don’t annoy her to death), she will become jealous at the lack of said attention or if it’s given to another. She also has moments where she just doesn’t want to be bother, accidently giving out unneeded sarcasm and seeming annoyed or short winded. While not too often, he gets rather competitive, though is gets mistaken for her goofier side until she shows rare and slight moments of aggression.

She normally doesn’t like having too much attention on her, even in those rare moments of competitiveness. Rather liking the moment of spotlight and feeling on top. However it is very easy to get her flustered. She’ll stubble over her words, avert eye contact, or deflect compliments and try to be modest. accept or for those she’s more comfortable with, play it off as if she were super confident.

She also tends to wear her heart on her sleeve. Easily being able to swoon for certain people and she can even try to impress them by trying to act cool or funny.

Backstory-

She grew up to a mage family that surrounded her in sheep. One lamb in particular she grew very found of. These sheep were more than often the subjects of of mage practice and experiments that would lead to their deaths. Upon finding this out, a young Niyo would attempt to release the sheep to free them of the fate of dying to mage experiments only to be caught and punished for it. One of said punishments included her being forced to watch her lamb friend be experimented on and later forced to eat it later only to get sick from it. They would later start referring to her as a "prized mutton" and use her mana for their magic studies while also being forced to study it as well.

After reaching a certain age she would flee this home in an attempt to detach herself from that family. She moved with her grandmother who didn’t practice in magecraft and somewhat isolated herself until she got herself two small dogs to keep her company. She loved these dogs deeply and would sometimes give them more care than herself.

One day while taking them out they got of their leashes and roamed about town for a while. She panicked while searching for them until she found them with a group of friends. The group gladly returned them to her to which she was very grateful, though as she was about to return home said group invited her to join them. While she was extremely hesitant, she felt it was the least she could do to repay them for finding keeping her boys safe until she got to them.

And they would all soon become the best of friends. The group's "leader" in particular. Not only were they calm and decisive, but they also possessed a strong moral compass, going to lengths to help others  while deeply caring for the bonds of each of his friends. All while effortlessly being cool and charismatic. She looked to them like a red rose, admiring their qualities and aiming to be like them in a sense. Some of their personality even rubbed off on her. They were also the only member to also be another mage, encouraging Niyo to at least continue studying magic at her own pace. This being the thing they occasionally did together.

Though one day, the group would have to depart each other as they all had to move in life. However some days before their inevitable departure said "leader" met with each member of the group and spent the day with them. When Niyo day came they spent the day out, window shopping and ending the day in a countryside Café at the sunset. The leader would ask Niyo what she plans to do, to her replaying she wasn't sure, and she didn't know what she'd do without them. Her dear friend would then tell her:

"You have a talent for magic and the quality of your circuits are good. You just lack a motivation to use them. I know it'll be hard to look back at the past but sometimes you must come to terms with those demons in order to properly move on. You don't have to listen to me, but just take it into consideration alright?"

They then would hand her a letter and a box. The letter being that of a recommendation to the Clocktower, while the box contained a gold necklace with a round pendant.  And their last words to Niyo before departure for that night were:

"Find peace in whatever you do and wherever you go."

Apart from the necklaces she was gifted she was also influenced by this friend and created a sort of façade where she appears much more confident and outgoing then what she believes she is. As if she wants to look and be cool. Sometimes even rehearsing scenarios in her head ahead of time to.

So taking her friend's advice she go to study with the mage's association in mana and circuit properties before getting recommended for Chaldea to be a potential master. As stated by many of her teachers she had the talent and good mana quality, but seemed to lack any real drive. Most of her comfort from in her time at the Clocktower came from her dogs who she would soon send to live with her dear friend as she went to Chaldea. 

She tends to keep things secret for reasons unknown to many, it is noted she that after the fall of humanity, knowing the loss of friend weighs heavy on her.
