Kimberly Daniels/Nyx

Nyx is an alter of Kimberly Daniels and a character role-played by Zettafrag.
==Physical Description ==
When Nyx first arrived in Los Santos, the left half of her face was covered in cybernetics and paneling made out of titanium, steel and bulletproof, see-through polymer. She had an artificial eye that glowed in teal, sometimes blinking green or red. Copper cooling fixtures could be seen inside her skull. Her ear had also been replaced with a mechanical device.
Nyx has short hair which only grows on the right half of her skalp, she dyes it black but her roots are red. She wears a dark grey lipstick and dresses in loose, often revealing clothing. Contrary to Kimberly whom hides her scars with layers, Nyx considers dressing provocatively an advantage in many ways; fear, intimidation, and lust among them.
She has four bionic fingers. Her back is covered in gruesome scarring. The tops of her lower legs have circular burn scars and there is a single scar on her torso from a knife wound. The area around her cybernetics is scarred as well.
==Background==
The only memories Nyx has of childhood is from when her step-father experimented on her with torture techniques, mutilating her back for years. Whenever she wasn't being tortured she was embedded in Kim's psyche in total darkness. Aside from her experiences while working for the Syndicate, the only things she understood was darkness and pain. 
Nyx flew into Los Santos on an agricultural aircraft from California and lost control of her plane, resulting in a crash and trip to Pillbox upon arrival. She was sent to Los Santos on an assignment from a crime syndicate to erase an unknown target from existence. She was working as a fixer and assassin for this syndicate in exchange for them saving her life. A year before coming to Los Santos, Kimberly was shot in the head during the war between the Lost and the Senate. As she lay dying in a massive pool of blood on the side of the mountain, Nyx took control. A hunter found her body and took her to Grandma's but the healing process only partially worked. She got up, attacked the hunter and fled. She discovered Kimberly's house and stole one of her go-bags, kidnapped a pilot flying out of Grapeseed, and was captured by that pilot's employer; a crime syndicate trying to set up a smuggling operation into Los Santos. They were astonished at what she could accomplish while being inches from death and made her a deal; work for them, repay her debt from ruining their operation and survive. For a couple of months she was in one of their medical facilities receiving surgeries and implants to help her function and maintain control before she was release to work for the syndicate. 
While Nyx was being operated on she regularly saw a psychiatrist whom diagnosed her with Dissociative Identity Disorder. The doctor -being in the pocket of the syndicate- facilitated with the surgeons the ability of her implants to help Nyx stay in control of Kimberly Daniels' body. This was due to the impression Nyx gave them that Kimberly was cowardly and weak because of her experiences in childhood and nearly dying from being shot in the head. 
Details of various assignments have not been discovered yet.
Nyx has mentioned multiple times that she often exploited people and their tendency to love and care for others while working for the Syndicate, even taking down an entire gang because of their familial bonds. She doesn't recognize the value in getting close to people.
Nyx was told her most recent assignment -where she assassinated a gang leaders wife- resolved the debt she owed but they had one more mission for her with an ultimatum; disappear or accomplish the assignment and return home as a distinguished asset to the organization. Her mission was to erase a target from existence. Someone whom had caused them problems in the past, but when Nyx crashed her plane she had no memory of the name of her target and the only possession she came out of the wreck with was Kimberly Daniels identification card. She now suspects the Syndicate may have sent her to erase her own alter.
Nyx attempted to assume Kimberly Daniels identity in the city but constantly ran into problems. Not only was her cover's assets about to be seized by the banks but everywhere she turned someone knew Kim's name. Nyx was forced to pay everywhere with cash and often travel without Kim's cell phone to avoid detection. All the times she assumed false identities in the past they were Jane and John Does with no attachments and little to no risk of running into conflicts regarding the identities and she was frustrated the syndicate would send her on an assignment with such a hot cover identity.
Sophia McMoo has reprogrammed crucial components of her implants which now grants her larger access to Kim's memories and enables her to feel emotions on a more normal level.
==Disposition==
Nyx is cautious, quiet, alert and patient. She often requests people's full name as a habit from sniffing out Syndicate deep covers. She pretends to be friendly and often doesn't understand why people act the way they do. She revels at the sight and smell of blood and takes great pleasure in killing. If someone jeopardizes her goals and the path is clear she will take them out. Nyx is extremely sexual and is attracted to many different people. She is aggressive and forward in seeking partners, but respects the boundaries set by Kim and Mattias in their new relationship.
==Relationships==
Nyx revealed her presence and intentions in the city to Vincent Genovese, believing him to be an authority from the syndicate she worked for. It is currently unclear why hearing his name triggered her implants to grant him security clearance. She had no choice but to trust him because she was lacking information. When she told him he had authority and access to all of the information she has done for the syndicate he rolled with it, keeping the facade going instead of disputing it. Vincent quickly pieced together that Nyx was Kimberly's alter ego, even though she wasn't aware of it. This is due to information he acquired when Kimberly went missing. He broke into her home, destroyed the interior and made off with vital evidence about her going missing and how Nyx' origins with the Syndicate lined up with that evidence. Vincent continued to manipulate Nyx, even going as far as approving of her goal to kidnap, interrogate and kill Mattias Nilson; Kimberly's fiance. As Nyx fit together pieces about her identity she became suspicious of Vincent. After she learned that Emily Brown had become Kimberly Daniels and that he was her estranged ex boyfriend, she got the key to her cybernetics back from him before stabbing him multiple times in an alleyway and slowly plunging her knife into his heart. She left him for dead with a sneer on her face simply because he lied to her.
Nyx met Arthuro Leblank and by proxy learned of Mayhem. She was unpacking a truck full of boxes and furniture into Kim's house when he came over to check her out. He spooked her with questions about "the previous owner" of the house and led to her start looking into Kimberly Daniels. After discovering she lied about buying the house on the market, Arthuro believed she was Kimberly Daniels but something was wrong with her, possibly brainwashing. Even though Nyx wanted to kill Arthuro for being a liability to her cover when they first met, he became one of the only members in Mayhem she felt comfortable talking to over the phone.
One of the most crucial people in helping Nyx discover that her alter is Kimberly Daniels was Sophia McMoo, a cybernetic expert, engineer and very close friend of Kim's. She originally told Nyx that she was the spitting image of Kim and later willfully revealed all of the information she knew about what had happened to her when she went missing. Nyx had been wandering for a couple of days alone and trying to figure out why certain places, people and actions triggered strange sensations. Together, they explored important locations to Kim and Sophia explained the meaning behind them when she could. They learned that when her eye blinks red it seems to be Kim reacting to what Nyx sees in some way. Thanks to Sophia, Nyx began to differentiate these sensations and determine what each means. They learned that what Nyx once thought was a dream was possibly her influencing Kim during Arthur Morgan's death and having control briefly afterward, and even when and how Nyx took control and left the country. Nyx was puzzled when Sophia shared a deep personal secret with her to show that they have something very similar in common.
Gabriel Crow, a loyal in Mayhem took a more hands-on approach to getting to know Nyx than other members did. Where most had a hard time looking at her, he showed a willingness to give her a chance by repeatedly involving her in non-critical club hangouts and telling her he cared about her. Though his actions often puzzled Nyx, she began to find his presence appealing and his penchant for violence attractive.
==Major Events==
==== Arriving in Los Santos====
Nyx flew an agriculture aircraft from California to Los Santos and lost control of the plane over Grapeseed. She escaped from the wreckage, burning and wounded and crawled to the highway where she was found by Santiago. He called EMS for her. She wishes to repay him for helping her.
====Revealing assignment to Vincent====
Nyx came across Vincent while waiting for fishing partners in Paleto. After brief small talk she learned his full name and immediately told him she needed to speak with him. They met at Kimberly's house and Nyx started explaining to him about her cover possibly being blown. She asked him if the syndicate sent him any information about her assignment. He rolled with her assumption of his involvement in her employers organization but stated that his group does not do the things they sent her to do. She assumed he worked for an entirely different branch. Nyx doesn't fully remember what happened to her a year ago but the syndicate recounted with her what she told them in her stupor at the time. She told Vincent everything about her origins and discussed her work briefly. She said she wasn't sure what exactly she was supposed to be doing in Los Santos and he convinced her she was supposed to contact him and figure out what had happened to Kimberly Daniels.
====The reboot caveat====
During one of the times Vincent was learning about Nyx he got to the chance to reboot her. Doing this revealed that for a brief moment before Nyx cybernetics come online Kimberly Daniels is able to gain control of her body. The time limit is 30 seconds and also happens naturally after a night of sleep, roughly every 24 hours. Kim has used this time to extend a line of communication to Nyx, so at least once a day they are able to exchange messages. Mayhem created a way to hide messages from Nyx during the period where they were figuring out how to get Kimberly back. 
====Mayhem and Therapy ====
Nyx had told and shown Mayhem that she was willing to talk to Kim and attempt to work out some semblance of coexistence. She did not say she was willing to give up control however. After being urged to talk to a psychiatrist she set up an appointment with Bob Moss. Much to her surprise, many Mayhem members came with her for support and even though she though she believed they were only there for Kim, Moss revealed the clubs desire to help them both. He taught her methods that may be possible to communicate with Kim including meditation and journal keeping. 
====Accepting Reprogramming====
After a month of working with the club, Sophia and communicating to Kim, Nyx agreed to allow Sophia to reprogram some of her systems. This allowed Kimberly and Nyx to switch control of their body at will and on occasion during moments of high interpersonal synchronization they even share control entirely.
