Backstory


xxxBorn into a large Baphomet family he was raised in relative security even with the efforts to rebuild still going on. However it was clear from a young age that he would never be happy having a simple life, he loved to learn too much. That simple fact would shape his life greatly as he grew, putting him on the path to venture to the academy in order to get an extensive education. As well as convincing his family that it was worth gathering up and paying the money it would take for him to go there.

xxxWhile happy and very giving as a freshling he was also excessively awkward, on top of never being very social. It made his much more socially adept peers reject him quite harshly, leading to the inevitable of him starting to close himself off to others, even to his own family. Already unsure of himself in his setting his security and sense of self was fragile and easily damaged. He was not as social as the other Baphomet’s, even if he shared and loved their views and values it still made him feel alienated from those around him.

xxxWhile still very young he already wanted to help others so badly, already knew he wanted to one day become a doctor, a healer. To be truly valuable to those around him. No matter how many times he messed up or made a fool of himself his determination made him cling to his wish desperately enough to convince his family into letting him go to learn at the academy.

xxxLoving his life at the academy, with all the opportunities to learn, he actually started to feel like he really belonged somewhere. Even with fact that he is expected to be rather social by other races as well as his own, it could be stressful at times having that expectation on it, but it was something he learned to handle over time. Social aspects to academy life could be hard for him, but at least the house he belongs to in the academy suits him rather well. Being surrounded by others with similar likes to himself was always pleasant. It covers all the sciences that he so loves, as well as specializing in the areas he wants to pursue in the future.

xxxHe can manage to get along with about anyone from the other races, it mainly depends on their personality rather than what they are to him. As long as they are not obnoxious, or expect a lot of his social skills he is fine with them. Though he can be prone to pretending to get along with everyone even if he is miserable underneath. Seeing the orphans of his own race at the academy can tug on his heartstrings at times. They did not get to grow up soaked in the their own culture like he had. He knew he was not exactly the best suited for a huge family, but it was because he had experience with it, he lived it. They never had the chance to experience it for themselves it was almost chosen for them in a way.

xxxStarting his education at the academy was the first big step in his life that takes him towards his ultimate goal in life. Even still so young he knows where he wants his life to go, and is determined to get there.

Personality:


xxxNimbus is an extremely studious, easily considered a perfect example for a scholar if he did not have such a strong want to put his knowledge to use. He always looks for ways to do just that and even if it is in the simplest way he still enjoys that he managed to do it. He’s constantly on the search for new things to learn in an effort to explain and exercise his mind. With such a hungry and endless search for new knowledge it is extremely easy for him to get wrapped up in whatever he is doing and lose track of time. It is bad enough sometimes he has to set alarms for himself through the day to be sure he gets to classes or other important events.

xxxThere is no wish stronger in his heart that to be able to help others, yet he is hesitant to share much of himself with anyone. A handful of bad experience coupled with his own deep insecurities about himself make it hard for him to really trust anyone enough to give up that much of himself to them. Preferring to keep everyone at a clean cut professional distance from himself. It can make it difficult with how social his kind is, but he has become rather good at faking it over the years, no matter how uncomfortable it makes him.

xxxWhen he can make the choice himself he actually prefers to spend a lot of time by himself simply reading. Though it can lead to him getting extremely lonely, while still being unwilling to reach out for anyone for help.


Strengths:

Intelligent: Gifted intellectually he has a high capacity to absorb and retain new information. As well as having an excellent skill with problem solving.

Observative: Quick to pick up on what might be wrong with or affecting others he often prides himself in his sharp eyes. Anything from picking up on emotions to physical problems.

Curious: Never able to get enough information about the world around him there is never a time when he is NOT curious about something or another. The subject matter does not often even matter to him. Everything can hold interest, and thus value in trying at least once.


Weaknesses:

Insecure: No matter how smart he may be he feels a constant need to prove himself. Not confident in himself or the image he puts off to others. It can end up in him becoming extremely defensive or even outright aggressive when someone insists he is wrong about something or points out a failure.

Stoic: It can be a hard task for others to get to know him, due to his stoic nature it is challenging to tell what he is feeling none the less what he might be thinking.

Prickly: Due to a rather grumpy attitude he holds about himself it is not unusual to get him annoyed with you very quickly. There are many reasons he pushes people away by being abrasive, and often it is because they make him feel uncomfortable or anxious for one reason or another.


Middle ground:

Soft-Hearted: While he has the capacity to feel sympathy and compassion deeply for his fellow nightmares. It also makes many things hard on him when trying to form new bonds with his peers. Causing him to often shut himself off from others emotionally.


Likes
Reading, Learning, Quiet, Helping others, soft warm blankets (And burying himself under them.)

Dislikes
Boredom, Feeling inferior, Embarrassing himself in front of others (So, so, so much), emotional moments


Hobbies

Reading: Absolutely any text he can get his hands on he will read. Even it requires him to start learning other languages to expand the amount of books that he is able to read.

Gardening: With the path he wishes to take in his life he actually puts a lot of time and effort into learning and refining his magic. And one of his favorites is of course, natural magics. Often using it to help him feel useful herbal plants around. He finds it calming as well as rewarding.

Testing himself: While it might not seem like much of a hobby he often enjoys to push himself to see what he is capable. Though it can result in him exhausting himself on accident.

RP Prompt: Your Nightmare has to write an essay on what they want to be when they grow up. Do they procrastinate, or get to work immediately? What is their essay about?


An essay on what he wanted to do when he grew up? HAH! He could have written that when he was still a tiny freshling. It was such an easy topic even he could not stop the smile on his face. Good that no one else was around to ruin the good mood he was in. He could get started on this essay right away and get it knocked out in a couple of hours at most.

“I mean really the only easier thing they could ask me to do is breathe.”

After all his goals in life were strongly tied with his ‘self’. He held them close and valued them deeply. No one could take them from him. It was something that was his and his alone to decide on. Others always said to think on what he wanted to do, after all he was still only a junior. Hah he says! Just because he knows exactly what he wants to do puts no less value in it. It was not just a dream, he knew if he tried hard enough he could achieve it. And that was all that mattered.

Nice warm mug of tea set to the side, big fluffy blanket draped over his shoulders, enveloping even his chair it was so large, pen and paper. Check, check, check. Everything he needed to get through this essay with ease. Comfortable and confident he starts in on his first draft, a determined look fixed on his features.
