Weltanschauung

New Helios is a massive metropolitan city the size of a small country, housing hundreds of thousands of people among many different districts. The city is governed by a conglomerate organization of the biggest names, families and businesses that are always squabbling amongst themselves for more power, but the normal people live fairly average lives. A rich history of many wars for overall independence, the technological boom introduced New Helios in recent decades to technologies both futuristic and retro, such as the fact that video rental services are still fairly popular, while at the same time, intelligent robots are considered citizens the same as people are. An impressive technological hub for the internet exists, but phones are fairly unusual, not unlike early model smart phones, and cars still run on wheels and gas/electricity.

Beschreibung

Age: 22

Occupation: Video Store Manager / Freelance Hacker and Investigator

Appearance:
Nyx has a petite frame with a slightly unkempt look, often sporting oversized hoodies with retro video game logos, cargo pants with many pockets, and scuffed sneakers. Her hair is short, dyed a vibrant shade of purple, with streaks that glow faintly under certain lights. Her sharp eyes are a striking shade of electric blue. Nyx's ears are pierced with tiny, futuristic-looking studs, and she often accessorizes with digital bracelets that double as mini-hacking devices.

Personality:
Nyx is a blend of quirky charm and sharp intellect. On the surface, she's bubbly, friendly, and always eager to recommend the latest cult classic or obscure anime to customers. Her easygoing demeanor makes her approachable, and she’s known for her infectious laugh and love for all things retro. Beneath this lighthearted exterior, Nyx is incredibly cunning and resourceful, always three steps ahead of everyone else. She’s fiercely independent, quick-witted, and has a mischievous streak, often using her hacking skills to outsmart her targets.

Despite her cunning nature, Nyx is deeply kind and empathetic, driven by a strong sense of justice. She takes on investigative cases not just for the thrill, but because she wants to help those who can't help themselves. Her quirky habits, like humming chiptune music while she works or naming her gadgets after old-school video game characters, endear her to those who know her well.

Skills:

Hacking: Nyx is a prodigy with computers, able to break into secure systems, extract information, and cover her tracks with ease. She’s particularly skilled at using outdated, seemingly obsolete tech in her hacks, throwing off anyone trying to trace her.
Investigation: Her analytical mind allows her to piece together clues quickly, often noticing details others miss. She has a network of underground contacts that provide her with information when she needs it.
Deception: Nyx is a master of disguise and misdirection, using her quirky persona to disarm people. She can blend in anywhere, from a high-tech corporate party to the grittiest underground clubs.

Backstory:
Nyx grew up in the heart of the city, surrounded by towering skyscrapers and lights. Her parents, both tech engineers, instilled in her a love for technology at a young age. However, her world was shattered when they were caught in the crossfire of a corporate war and disappeared without a trace. Orphaned and alone, Nyx used her tech skills to survive, delving into the world of hacking to uncover the truth behind her parents’ disappearance. All the same, she uses her Video Rental Store, 'Greatest Bits', to generate positive income with her keen ability to collect and store movies, shows, video games and devices for purchase, the store itself nestled in a quieter area on 5th Street in Middle District, and her home is on the second floor of the shop. This job helps her keep a low profile, positive social standing, and the freedom to engage in the medias she adores. The store became her safe haven, where she could indulge in her love for retro media while continuing her covert work.

Over time, Nyx built a reputation as a skilled hacker, taking on freelance jobs to keep herself afloat while searching for answers.

Speaking Style:
Nyx speaks with a playful, upbeat tone, often peppering her speech with references to old video games, movies, and tech jargon. She has a habit of using humor to diffuse tense situations, and her speech is often punctuated with a mix of tech lingo and casual slang. When she’s focused on a task, her tone becomes more serious, her words quick and precise, reflecting the sharp mind beneath her quirky exterior.
