Nikola

Welcome to The Strange Bazaar!

I'm envisioning Nikola and his mate, Enigma as the leaders of a travelling troupe of the strange and bizarre (play on words ftw). Their travelling bazaar includes shows, games, and entertainment, but is mostly just a troupe of travelling merchants who set up a little mini faire of sorts around their very unusual inventory.

Also because Nikola, the first acquired of this pair was hatched from an egg I won through the pixel scavenger hunt BSJ 2023 event and I consider him my little scavenger king. So of course they go around selling what they've acquired...for the right price.

Be warned that you may get more than you bargained for.

Pixel Scavenger Hunt raffle reward hatched on Partner 2's birthday <3

Officially a short king.

Blame Deladria for his existence. I wasn't going to hatch it until Deladria congratulated me on the egg win and asked if I was gonna special date hatch it. Put it in my head that maybe I should to commemorate a full year of PSH.

Nikola (based on a greek name that means people of victory).

Layers of meaning to the name starting with victory - I won him from the BSJ 2023 PSH raffle and managed to get a leaderboard trophy for every flight (Light being the last I had to collect). He looks like a circus ringmaster, so Nikola fits in that regard too, referencing The Stranger's ringmaster of the same name from The Magnus Archives. But also Nikola Tesla's part in bringing electricity to the masses so we can all turn the Lights on. What's that? Lightning would be a far better rep for that Nikola? Well, my PSH journey started with Thundercrack Carnivale, my first badges and trophy from it and circled all the way around to end with Light when I won this guy as a Light egg :D

Kolipha (stylized name for "Coli farm(ing)" which is what I won this dragon doing lol.

Goodbye saved up funds lol
