N/A

Nagi has midnight blue eyes, appearing black in most lighting. They're almond-shaped and slightly upward-angled with dark bags beneath them. They always seem to be glaring, but their eyes hold a certain warmth when they really grow to care about someone.

Human
An Uncanny, subtype lightning Elementalist

Silver is extremely pale, almost white and kind of sickly looking. To many, they almost look like a corpse.

They're a meso-ectomorph with long limbs and a rectangular build. They're very thin and you can almost see their bones.

The most identifying feature of Silver would be their eyes. It wasn't necessarily the colour of them that made them clear, but the way they seemed to glare right through you. Silver's eyes could stare into a person's soul and make a grown man run away if they glared at him hard enough.

They smell like the woods and pineapple candy. The first scent comes only from candles, but the second is because they love pineapple and it's the one thing they can get for themself without their parents knowing.

Sil's voice has a raspy quality to it, but their words are clear and easy to hear. They prefer to speak quietly, but when they really need to they can project their voice. They often sound a bit distant, as though they're holding back.

They prefer to wear baggy clothing; oversized t-shirts, hoodies, sweaters, baggy jeans and leggings. If it gets too warm in the summer, they sometimes switch over to wearing baggy shorts too. They always wear a single silver ring on their left middle finger because it used to belong to their biological mother.

Vocal
Their voice often seems harsh, unintentional or not, and it sounds angry. When people won't listen to them, they huff. At breakthroughs, they always click their tongue twice. Never once or thrice, only twice. They don't talk much, but when they do they can talk until they run out of breath, especially on topics they really like. They sigh a lot and scoff at things they don't agree with. When things get awkward or too quiet, they clear their throat.
Motor
They express a lot with their eyebrows, raising or lowering them by what something makes them feel. When they're sitting idly, they rest their chin on their hand and tap the table. When they get embarrassed, they cross their arms and seem to close in on themself.
When they read, they sometimes mouth the words or try to figure out how they're supposed to sound. They always look at only one of a person's eyes because they can't focus on both of them. They sometimes drift off and then stare at people without realizing it, which can be quite disconcerting, since they have a very intense stare.
When talking about someone or something, they may point at the subject- despite being told that pointing is rude. They also move their hands around while they talk, waving them around aimlessly or to illustrate something. They scratch at the tops of their hands sometimes when bored flex their fingers when they've been doing one thing for a long time. They shrug a lot and stand with their feet around shoulder-length apart because they feel more stable that way and cross their arms when they're just standing around because they don't know what else to do with their hands.
They always carry a pouch of shiny things for the group of crows they visit and sometimes jingle it around. They pick at scabs or nail polish if they're there. They also twist their mother's old ring a lot when they're focusing on something particularly hard.

They want to be free of this world. Their life is holding them back and their family only serves to make them tired, so they want a getaway. They want to be free finally.

What Nagi really needs is to experience family. They're best friends with Cassidina, but they've always held her at arm's length for fear of getting hurt; after all, every person they've ever gotten close to has either died or left. So they need to feel love and genuinely connect with people.

Minor Flaws
Nagi is very awkward, having trouble forming sentences around people, especially people they want to make a good impression with. To that point, they're also tactless and have no idea how to properly interact with other human beings. They can also be rather humourless, not understanding people's jokes even though they have a dry and dark sense of humour themself.
Despite having rather low self-esteem, Silver hates admitting to being wrong. Their intelligence is the only thing about them they hold in high esteem, so having that challenged makes them feel less than nice. They're also very sceptical and tend to doubt most- if not all- of the things they're told.
Finally, they're very stubborn. They don't budge easily when challenged, which is both admirable and frustrating to many people.
Major Flaws
Their anxiety often gets the best of them and limits what they can do by a lot. However, they can also be very apathetic and they don't seem to care much about what people do in the world unless it directly affects Cassie or themself.
They're very belligerent and can get hostile quickly when asked questions that pry "too much". Due to their past, they can be bitter as well. They let their emotional exhaustion get the best of them and take out their own frustration on others.
Although not strictly considered a flaw, they're morally grey above all else. There's not much they consider exactly "wrong" or out of reason, which is something contested by most people.
Fatal Flaw(s)
Nagi’s fatal flaw, alongside deadly loyalty, is their self-destructiveness. They'll work without rest if it means they can reach their goal. They don't care much for their own health when it comes to success.
Regarding their loyalty, they would do anything for their friends even if it meant dying or undergoing serious mental or physical harm.

They believe very little of themself, but they still think that if they actually got up to do something, they could help people. They don't think they can belong without changing themself first.

Silver is particularly prejudiced against bad parents and people who judge before they get to know a person. They were like that when they were in their early school years, but they've tried to change and now they don't like people like that. They've also had experiences with bad parents through their foster parents.

Nagi is particularly talented with writing and engineering. They can put things together with ease and words flow easily through their brain. They're also fairly good at picking up skills, one of which being sword-fighting. They've learned how to work with katanas in both hands, both individually and together, which is a feat in itself.

Silver is actually quite a fan of engineering and writing. They do like to practice with their swords, but it's not exactly a hobby per se.
They have also gotten into sword-making and metalworking alongside their engineering obsession.

ISTP, chaotic good

Silver suffers from both depression and social anxiety, generally very negative and rather awkward socially. They can't handle large gatherings for long periods, quickly get overwhelmed and need breaks. They also have ADHD and, although very studious, have trouble focusing on certain texts- especially on a screen- and always seem to be moving.

Sil absolutely adores pineapple candy. They like pineapple on its own, but pineapple candy is even better. They like the rush the sugar gives them, even if it's only for a short amount of time.

Silver’s favourite possession is a simple silver ring that belonged to their biological mother while she was alive. They never take it off.
If they had to choose a close second, it would be an old, oversized hoodie Cassie had found in an ancient-looking thrift shop and then gifted to Silver. It's one of the few things that they had ever truly received as a gift and it was from the best friend they'd ever had.

Although they wouldn't mind fighting with their bare fists, they're a big fan of duel-wielded katanas. During the summer before the plot begins, they made a set that resembled the blade of a character in a manga they read. However, the tinge of their blades was bluer than those of the character.

Their all-time favourite animal is a crow, but they also admire horses in a close second. Crows ultimately come out on top because they spent time personally connecting with one group.

At the beginning of the plot, we find Silver to be 15 years old. The school year seems to be just starting. That would mean that they're beginning 10th grade academically. However, they had also been advancing their intelligence by themself and is at about an 11th-grade level in terms of most subjects. In literacy and engineering, they're much higher as they spent special attention to those subjects in their personal learning.

The plane crash that killed their parents was one they were in; they were found in the wreckage almost 5 hours after it had happened, shaking, hungry, and scared. They were 11 at the time.
When they were 12, they watched as their adoptive father shot at the birds that had settled on their roof. They never wanted to see an animal get hurt again.
Ever since they'd been adopted, they had been treated like the lowest of the low and basically been treated as an errand kid. They weren't "human" to them.
Above all, the lack of control they’ve had in their life has made it difficult or them to relinquish control. It makes them feel very unsteady, as though everything will go wrong =.

1. Understand that people change; everything is not always going to remain the same, it all changes eventually.


2. Learn to accept the changes that come their way.


3. Try to make a difference in the world.

They have no pet, but they sometimes feed crows when they wander off and one of them follows Silver around. They call him キラキラ (Kirakira).

As one of my oldest characters, Silver has gone through countless changes and developments as I have improved my writing skills. I can only hope you continue to improve, Nagi Lupin.
