Nea the Wolf

"My brother has achieved an incredible level with his magical abilities, so I have to stay focused to surpass him and prove that I can take care of myself. I still believe that accompanying you two on your travels will serve me well."Nea the Wolf is an eighteen year old Arctic Wolf who accompanies Enzo and Prudens on their quest to defeat the Dark Plague so she could become stronger to prove to her brother that she can live on her own. Noted to be ice cold, she's proven to have a warm interior, however this side of her is rarely shown as she feels that those emotions are holding her back and making her weak. While she isn't very physically strong, Nea is very fast and nimble, though she also possesses the ability to control and create fire using a tome she has.

Nea isn't known to talk a lot but she enjoys writing all sorts of poetry. Since she doesn't like talking much, Nea prefers to write down the way she feels in poems. Aside from traveling with Enzo to improve her powers, Nea also believes that travel will give her inspiration to write more poetry.

Concept and Creation
Once upon a time, Kami decided to make another character, but this time, a female. Her main design inspirations came from Zero from Drakengard 3, tough it's pretty much only for her hair, while Lucero the Wolf, another of my characters, was the main inspiration for her color scheme. The idea of her being a cold person, just came up randomly with no real explanation why. I just wanted to make a character with that type of personality.

I would like to give big thanks to SigmaAlphaThree for the name, which fitted her because her color scheme is similar to neapolitan ice cream. Also, her attire is just something I put together that seemed fitting for Nea,

Backstory
Nea was born in a small village in Holoska along with her twin-brother, Radiance. Growing up, the twins became entranced by the amazing powers of a sage that lived in the same village who eventually became well known throughout the planet. The two begged their parents to allow them to become students for the sage, and with enough begging, they both agreed, of course they had to ask the sage. He did agree to teach them, but Radiance wasn't too sure he wanted his sister to learn magic as he thought that Nea was too frail to handle such a thing. With that comment, Nea made it her mission to show to Radiance that she could be as powerful as him, or even stronger. From that day forward, Nea worked her hardest and with the years passing by, she felt strong enough to challenge her brother to a fight, but the battle ended in her defeat rather quickly.

When the two turned 16, the sage felt that their training was complete and sent them off. Radiance left in search for ways to use his powers for good while Nea stayed behind wondering how she could possibly prove her superiority over Radiance. She eventually headed into nearby mountains to increase her skills further which lasted a little under a year until she returned home. She informed her parents that she was planning on leaving as well, hoping to to improve her magic even further. Buying a ticket, she takes a ship to Apotos and from there, she travels to Station Square. Once there, she finds the city oddly dark, and she's attacked by Prowlers, evil beings created by the Dark Plague. Thanks to her magic abilities, she easily defeats the foes and light is brought back to the city. Feeling great pride, she decides to continue traveling, wanting to fight more Prowlers, but she stumbled upon two strangers, Enzo the Cat, and Prudens Iliad, who are also looking for the same enemies. Nea and Enzo exchange insults and within no time, the two start a fight with Nea edging out a close victory over Enzo. With a little more talking, the two come to an understanding and Prudens begins flirting with Nea, though he's quickly shot down. Furthermore, the two end up teaming up to fight the Prowlers because Nea believes that this is the best possible way to defeat Radiance.

Personality
Nea is a quiet, reserved wolf who rarely changed her serious expression despite the circumstances she finds herself in. The young wolf constantly ignores people, keeps them at a distant, or even berates them even if she uses a few words to do so. Nea has a fondness of a wide variety of flowers as she rarely gets to see them, plus she also loves slow-paced music. Most of the time others only see her cold expression, but a few individuals have experienced her warmer and nicer side. She does indeed care about her friends, and constantly worries about their safety, but she believes that these caring feelings lead to weakness.

Appearance
Nea is a mostly white wolf, with the tip of her tail being black. Her attire consists of a white shirt with black trim at the bottom and the collar. Nea also has a long black glove on her left arm, a black skirt, light purple knee-high socks with black straps on them. Her shoes are black flats as is her hair bow. To finish up her attire, Nea has a peach colored cape. Her hair has three bangs: on the left, the right, and the middle while her side bangs are adorned with red ribbons. Her hair is also have three clips as well as a small purple flower; Nea's hair reaches her back. Lastly, she wears red make-up and her eyes are magenta colored.

Powers and Abilities
Thanks to being trained by the village's sage, Nea is quite proficiency with fire magic thanks to the tome she carries around. Her tome gifts her with the ability to control, create, and master fire though her magical power is tied to her tome. If she isn't holding onto her tome, she cannot use her magic until she completely masters the flames, which she has yet to come. In case she can't use her fire powers, she also carries a knife with her, but she's not very good at using it.

Also, Nea is quite fast and nimble. Nea is able to run at pretty fast speeds though her speed is nowhere near as fast as say Sonic. She can also dodge attacks thanks to her speed and as quite the good climber thanks to her staying in the mountains for about a year.

Trivia

 * Her name was given to hear by SigmaAlphaThree.
 * Nea is the 3rd character created for the Tales of Grimoire series that I created.
 * She claims that she's not currently wanting to date, Nea still enjoys using make-up whenever she possibly can.
 * Since fruit was rare growing up, she finds fruits to be a delicacy.
 * Her love of writing poetry comes from the time when Radiance "insulted her" as the first time she wrote a poem, she used it as a way to vent.
 * Her last name is Cacao, becuase I love chocolate. That's pretty much it. Isabel came from some girl who didn't go to prom with my friend (he didn't ask her, it's just a joke).
