Niemand

NIEMAND
She/Her
OCCUPATION?
The Refuge

When Niemand was still a hatchling, her name was different. She was part of a big, influential family, led by her father, who led his family with an iron claw. And, when Niemand was barely a hatchling anymore, her family got raided. Not by criminals, but by the clan’s guards. Her father, the forceful patriarch of the family, was responsible for a lot of crime in the clan. From disappearances to mysterious fires, he had financed all of it.

After that, Niemand wasn’t allowed anywhere in the clan anymore. So she left. Still not an adult yet, but knowing that she would never be accepted there. She traveled away from what was once her home, and changed her name into Niemand. A new identity, because the old one would no longer do.

It took her a while to arrive at a new clan, mainly because she didn’t know the lay of the land very well. She tried to fit in, she really did. But it didn’t work. She was nobody, and she carried nothing on her to help her find a place. So she lived on the streets, working for food. Sometimes, she was offered a place to stay, especially when the weather was bad. The clan wasn’t bad to her. But they were mistrustful. Niemand understood. She was too, after everything she’d been through.

And then the first mysterious fire happened. Nobody knew how it started. Niemand wondered if she was cursed by her bloodline. But by the time the second fire was blazing, she was over it. It had every hallmark of her father’s work, and she was not going to sit around idly to watch him ruin yet another clan’s safety. She was an adult now, no longer a hatchling. And no longer afraid of her family.

If she needed to be the one to stop him, so be it.
