Backstory: Like all faeries, Nya spent copious amounts of time playing pranks on unsuspecting mortals. Unlike quite a few of her kind, she became completely fascinated with them. Her aversion to evil in any form prompted her to toy with her growing interest by creating unique pranks that were meant to punish evil-doers or reward those who sought to bring justice. Most often, she used charms to silently assist those who wielded swords, granting them greater skill, speed, and good fortune.
Her favorite mortal became a knight-errant who gained her attention by saving a child from a cruel man who meant to take the child from its mother by way of "payment" for catching him in the act of stealing some livestock. The knight stepped in even as Nya was concocting some complicated scheme to bring the theif to justice and dispatched him with a sound beating with the flat of his blade before turning him over to the local sherriff. For nearly a decade, Nya followed the knight, eventually revealing her presence to him and remaining his faithful friend...until she decided to reward him for a spectacular display of bravery with a chaste kiss.

This broke the rules (far more than she'd ever bent them previously) and enraged the rest of the hidden fae community. Already, she'd been whispered of as some kind of rogue for revealing her presence to her knight, but this seemed to be the last straw. She was banished for putting her community at risk of discover and sent to live as a mortal.

If you ask Nya, she will tell you that she was too good at being a fairy and jealousy led to her banishment. Because faeries are magical in nature, born of it and created from it, not all of her magic has been stripped from her, so she taps into the magical nature of her existance.


Personality Traits: Nya is incredibly self-assured of her superiority. Faeries, after all, are very special, and she is still a faerie even if only in her own mind. She also approaches the world with the simplistic viewpoint of a fey which can lead to very interesting encounters. Her biggest motivations, however, are a strong sense of justice and an insatiable curiousity about the mortal world.

Powers: Nya is striving to draw on her magical nature to regain some of her powers - especially flight - but thus far has only managed to simulate a spell that creates a personal pocket of hidden space in which she used to carry her sword and now is for anything else that she needs to keep handy.
