Description

Nikoletta is a young black dragon girl, in the care of Eletheria.

Appearance

Nikoletta looks like a typical black dragon, with her dark scales and curved twin horn pointing forwards. In her humanoid form, she tends to assume the guise of a dwarven girl, with a resemblance to Otto.

The big oddity is that Nikoletta is much larger and smarter than would be expected for a dragon her age, being in the young stage of her life, despite being only a couple months old.

Personality

Nikoletta acts like a child, being very playful and trusting. This is ironically quite mature for her age, as dragons her age would typically have developed very little in the way of personality. She likes Eletheria and seemed to listen to Otto and Valeyo. Much like a kid, she enjoyed terrorizing Vincent, when he first found out about her true nature, often sneaking up on him and laughing at his reactions. She is shown to be much nicer that others of her kind, with Sardior declaring her a potential force for great good. This can be seen in her giving herself up to the Sahuagin to save Eletheria and assuming her draconic form to protect the others, when Ysomir was killed.

Biography

Early Life

Nikoletta hatched in the cave north of Akulavod where she was taken care of, by Eletheria. For weeks, she was being taught the common tongue and how to shapeshift. One night, a number of Sahuagin attacked the two of them in the cave and captured them. Nikoletta gave herself up, in exchange for Eletheria's life and was taken underwater to be made into the Sahuagin's new champion.

Current

During the ritual to elevate her into their champion, she was rescued by the party who took her back to Eletheria. The two of them reunited and began to continue her training. Soon, however, another threat approached. The frost giant hunter Shuult, arrived in Akulavod looking for the two of them. The party hid the two in the sea, south of town and distracted the giant. After a few days, Nikoletta was able to maintain a humanoid form for a few hours, long enough to smuggle her out of town. From there she and Eletheria travelled with the party to Rekasev.

In Rekasev, she spent most of her time indoors, hiding in the top room of the large tower in Vincent's manor, which was large enough to house her true form. One day, while the party was out, Vincent entered the room and saw her, which had him running and screaming in terror, hiding downstairs until the party returned. Nikoletta was amused by his reactions, but it took significant effort from the party to convince the inventor that Nikoletta meant him no harm. He was still quite jumpy around her, something that she found funny and would often walk up behind him in her dwarf form to scare him.

Soon they were sailing south on the river before heading west to Stendolin, where Nikoletta and Eletheria left in search of a missing Fire Giant girl.
