Nadia was wed to a pirate when she was eighteen. She would follow him on all his travelings and moved with him to a remote island in the Western Ocean. They had been traveling through a rough storm, and the ship crashed. Her husband had died, but as she clung to the rocks, on her death bed, a young water nymph had taken an interest to her. Nadia had died, but her body had been drug down into the depths of the sea and presented to a tribe of sea nymphs. They had presented her to their mother, Sequena, Goddess of the sea, to be reborn as one of her daughters. She had been proven worthy and been reborn as a sea nymph. It had taken a long time to come to terms with her new life, but over 200 years she rose in the ranks and became the representative of her tribe of sea nymphs, and gained a large influence over other tribes as well. Sea nymphs used to be kind, helpful creatures eating only plants on the bottom of the sea, but as time crept on and the magic began disappearing from the lands, the nymphs started to take notes from their long distant sisters, the sirens, and began to feast on human bodies. Nadia had refused to leave the Western Ocean with the others, as this was where her husband had died, so her and her tribe stayed, dominating a small forgotten cove. A young girl had begun to visit there, feeding them bodies occasionally, but most of the time she would just sit, watch. Wait. Nadia could tell she knew what lurked in the waters, and Nadia could also tell the girl was Fae, though she hid it well. Over the months the girl would visit, always quiet and thoughtful, Nadia gained some kind of trust of the young woman. One day, she dared revealed herself to her and crept as close as she dared. She had woven her a crown, of branches and seaweed and pearls and flowers. The girl had accepted the gift, and Nadia dove back into the deeps.

As part of their magic, Water Nymphs are able to take on a human body and live outside of the water. Many do not take advantage of this, however, because they feel connected to the water and miss it when they are gone. Nymphs are immortal.
