[/u][/center][/size][/font].:Looks.:.Nyx is a very tall girl, when compared to other women of the area and time period. She stands tall and proud, even though she is not a true Olympian. She has skin as light as the moon due to the fact that she shrouds herself in darkness most of the time. Her hair is long and heavily curly. Her brown lockes shine brightly and are always in a perfect array. Nyx's eyes are a light aquamarine color with specks of green in them. Due to her height, Nyx has a long, lean body, and she moves almost with a cat-like grace
.:Height:. Five foot, Nine inches
.:Portrayed by:. Nicole Linkletter

[/u][/center][/size][/font].:Basic Personality:. Nyx is alone most of the time, and so she can be gloomy and violent. She is deeply jealous fo the Olympians because she feels that she is just as important as any of them. The way she feels, she thinks that Night is half of the time, so why is she not as important as they are? She usually holds this grudge inside and treats Olympians with utmost respect when she has to meet them. She is a Goddess who is almost on the darker side of things, and so she is very promiscuous when she wants to be, and very manipulative when she has to be.
When Nyx is hanging around people she likes, usually those who are also a tad bit evil, such as Eris or Ares, she can be a very bright and cheerful person because she is comfortable. Nyx has a sarcastic air about her and hates the fact that she is not as powerful as other Gods. But, she always reminds herself of, without her, no mortal would be able to sleep. In short, Nyx is a jealously iniquitous little girl who wants to be like her bigger peers.

.:History:. Nyx herself does not know of her origins except that she was born from the minor God Chaos, and she doesn't seem to have much of a family. Nyx is from the time of the Titans, and thus, she is an older being than the Olympians, which adds to her callous jealousy. While most of the other Gods and Godesses seem to related to each other, she only has a mother, Chaos, of whom she hasn't seen for ages. Nyx already has a few sons, grown and on their own, seeing as they have been frozen into age. Nyx, however, does not care about them and figures that because they are demigods,they should be able to take care of himself.
Nyx grew up with the other Goddesses, and learned to be jealous of them. The others, such as Aphrodite and Athena, always got the attention, and little Nyx, with her dark, dark hair and pale skin seemed to be ignored by everyone. Nyx eventually got sick of the ill treatment and aroused attention by berating the other Goddesses until they too didn't like her back. Nyx escaped them and did her Night thing on her own until a few years ago, where she finally apologized and tried to get back in their good graces.
Nyx has been doing her job of making sure Night happens rightly and that people get to sleep on her own. She rarely has any contact with other Gods/Goddesses, but when she does she doesn't know how to act, so she is very awkward. She doesn't know if she should be kind, or be herself and treat them coldly. Recently, Nyx has been left alone by everyone, and she plans on socializing to try to make them see how important she really is.
.:RP Sample:. Nyx sat in the darkest part of the forest near Athens and listened closely to the animals that she was familiar with. She could see every leaf, every pine needle perfectly. Her back was against a tree, and she had her knees pulled up to her chest. A nearby wolf howled, and Nyx's head snapped to her right to see a pack of them, rushing through the forest to get somewhere. It reminded her of Artemis.
Nyx made her eyes a slit and looked back forward into the distance. Why did the Olympians think they were so bloody awesome? Even Artemis, perhaps the one that Nyx looked up to the most, came across to her as a little bit too important for what she was made of. I control the Night, for the Gods sakes! Nyx sighed and pushed her head into her knees and sat there alone, her teeth grinding from anger.
She made a dark cloud around her body so that even the animals with acute eyes wouldn't be able to see her. She smiled at herself. Sometimes Nyx felt invisible. And when she put shadows on herself, she literally was.[/blockquote]
