Personality: Nicolas Brown is not the friendliest guy you’ll ever meet. Or the nicest. Or the politest. In fact at first blush he’s kind of a jerk. He likes to tease people, whether he’s just met them or known them for 20 years. When he’s not teasing, however; he’s pretty reserved. The reasons for this are twofold. It is mostly due to the fact that it’s difficult for him to communicate with other people, as most people don’t know sign language and he is generally disinclined to speaking. However it does also owe some credit to his general attitude towards other people. As a twilight, Nic has had to deal with prejudice at hate from strangers his whole life, and as such has been conditioned to expect nothing positive from any interaction. His time in Holly Heights, where the stigma of being a “tag” doesn’t exist, did soften this somewhat, but old habits die hard. Nicolas is reluctant to admit caring for anyone, though it will often show more through his actions. Take for example Nina, young nurse at the nearby clinic and frequent visitor of Nic and Worick. Nina seems to have a pretty solid understanding of Nicolas and enjoys his company, despite him frequently doing things like bopping her on the head or honking her nose. Really, this seems to be his way of showing affection, he seems perfectly fine walking with her holding his hand; while it’s not incredibly overt, it’s evident he feels comfortable with her. Nic reveals the fact that he is actually a compassionate person through small gestures, such as steading Alex’s hands so that she can open her medication bottle or giving Granny Joel his coat to shield her from the rain.
Nic operates on an odd combination of tremendous immaturity and a fierce paternal streak. He is often needlessly snarky, with friends and strangers alike. Some might suggest that it is a defense mechanism, but he honestly seems to enjoy getting a rise out of people. He has plenty of actual walls that he puts up to keep people out. While he by no means is as fluently disingenuous as his partner, Nicolas is skilled at telling half-truths and avoiding questions when it suits him. Both men will flatly avoid talking about their pasts, and Nic generally will not lay any of his cards on the table if he can avoid it. In his months living in Holly Heights, only three people fully knew what his condition entailed, and one was only out of necessity when he had Nic’s body during an event. Despite this, Nic does seem to enjoy the company of people he feels comfortable with. While Worick is overtly friendly, it’s empty and meaningless, whereas Nic covers his soft squishy feelings with an air of stubborn obnoxiousness. He seems to have a particular soft spot for kids, though, if asked, he would summarily deny it.
That isn’t to say that Nic’s rough exterior is all an act. He’s been fighting his whole life and honestly enjoys it. He’s glad when he finds someone who can fight at his level, and has a bad habit of overdosing on Celebre in order to fight stronger opponents. He is a stubborn, abrasive person who is always more than willing to resort to violence, regardless of who the individual might be. He is set in his ways and has no intention to try to change for anyone else. He is perfectly capable of “turning off” his horrible temperament, but does so rarely and it is generally reserved for dealing with kids. For everyone else, anyone he cares for will see fleeting glimpses of Nic’s true nature every now and again. Take Alex, whose relationship with Nicolas is the only one that can even rival the tempestuousness of his friendship with Worick. Outwardly he acts very opposed to her presence, yet willingly tolerates her longer than anticipated time of living with them. When Alex took on a job for the duo to find a lost cat, Nic ended up being the one to actually find it, but let Alex take the credit because she’d spent all day trying to find it. Though he is rough around the edges, with a combative attitude and questionable morals, Nicolas manages to endear himself to people who can see that when it comes down to it, he has a good heart.
Abilities/Powers: Nicolas’ small build belies inhuman strength, he is also very fast and agile, and these enhanced traits are in part due to him being a twilight. However a great deal of his physical ability comes from his own training. He’s adept with a katana, but is completely capable of fighting with his fists as well. His only other skill worth noting is his impressive eyesight, which he developed mainly to compensate for his deafness.
