Nicole used to be your average girl, until her mom got in a car accident and sent her to live with her Aunt in Sunnydale. Born and raised in New York City was hard enough, but moving to the Hellmouth was just cruel. As she was in the middle of her first year here, (she was a sophomore) her and her cousin decided to fool around with their Wicca powers and try a spell. You see, Nicole liked a guy by the name of Eric. He was a senior and he would never... ever date her. She was plain.
She went to the Magic Box the night one of the ill fated owners was killed. Right after in fact, for the vampire who did the killing was still there. He was a bit full from his meal, so he didn't bother attacking the two girls. Instead, he got a much more sadistic idea. He helped them gather materials for the spell they were to perform but added an extra ingredient. His blood.
The pair went home, lit the thirteen candles and cast the spell. But the magick was too powerful to contain and it basically killed Nicole. Her cousin was told it was an effect of the curse to make Eric love her, and to 'wake her up' she needed to give the young teen a mixture of herbs, and special potion he gave. Blood. After feeding Niki the mixture, Katie crawled into bed. The next morning Niki awoke to an arm engulfed in flames and a new set of teeth. She fled Sunnyhell under a blanket and through the sewers.
You see, Niki was special. The spell gave her immortality as a vampire, but she kept her conscious. Her humanity. Her love and hatred. So, Los Angles, here she comes. Niki was absent for the rest of the year, missing SHS blowing up. After a run-in with Soul that turned her opinion of her new lifestyle even more bitter than before, she returned to Sunnydale for one thing and one thing only, to seek revenge on her 'sire' so to speak and help protect the innocents of the Hellmouth. One thing led to another, and after spending many long months living on the street and getting heartbroken, she met Jinx. And the Goddess only knows what a VSI vampire slaying team member and a vampiress had in common but the pair fell in love. To this day, she works with VSI, and keeping true to her roots... pissing off Tahj as much as vampiricly possible.
'Wheels, what's the matter with Chew toy? Not getting any once again? Sheesh... I'd help him out and all, have a cigarette after... and promptly go get a tan. Or maybe a nice relaxing Holy Water bath... decisions, decisions.'
The woman in front of you catches your attention. A beautiful and attractive young female. She seems as though her outlook on life is that of a fighter, of one who has seen too much. The way she carries herself is remarkable, and how her gait is that of a panther or other large predator.
Her standing height, a mere 5'2". Her weight, a compact and muscled 105lbs. Her skin is no less than striking, for her complexion is that of a pale, porcelain like hue. Ivory complexion is contrasted by soft sepia hair, with wispy bangs to either side of her profile. The rest spikes out to her chin. Her small ears are pierced, four times. As is her eyebrow. And of course her lip. Her face is beautiful, even at such a young age. The gaze is emerald, an intense shade of green. Her lips are soft and lush mostly always in a smile.
The top of her shapely body is cloaked in a yellow tank top, the hem at the bottom ripped and torn to show off the pale flesh of her stomach. And the emerald stud in her belly button. Adorning her lower body, is a pair of baggy jeans. At her waist is a black leather belt, dragon buckle. On her feet a pair of sneakers. Adidas to be exact. Around her neck is a thick ball chain necklace. And hanging lower, a pentacle.
