Nywah

=== History ===
Nywah Laguire is a Paradisian by culture, growing up on the western edges of what was the High Queendom of Paradise. After the joining of Paradise and Tovarisha, Nywah became a political activist against the socialists who took over their home. When the purge occured in Tovarisha, Nywah fled as there were rumours their name was on a list to be taken into Maldivium, a supposed "vacation island" which was surrounded by accusation of atrocity for political enemies of the union. Nywah fled north and attempted to change their identity in the town of Valoria, still under Tovarishan control but far away enough to be safe in an area where nobody would recognise them. When the Tovarishan authorities continued their search, Nywah fled again, not knowing where it would take them. They arrived on the northern shore of Sparwood and took the first boat they could, beating the Tovarishan authorities by mere hours to the port. From there they sailed wherever the boat took them. They arrived in a foreign land where they understood nobody, with no idea how to get home other than by the boat they arrived. Since then, they have been doing whatever they can to get home to Paradise.
=== History since leaving Paradise ===
Nywah found themselves far away from home in the state of Leveros. Far from the sea and desperate for food, they decided to help a nearby lumberjack chop wood and sell it in the Kamiyama market in return for food and shelter. Nywah dreamt of being in a land where conversation is easy, home is secure and their friends are abundant and was pondering starting revolution back home on their return.
They since have acquired a healthy sum of money and have rented a ship to finally return them home to West Paradise, where they plan to live the rest of their days.
=== Personality ===
Due to being hunted for much time, Nywah is very paranoid, jumpy and easy to spook. It is hard for them to trust, especially strangers. They especially don't trust those from Sparwood due to the many events that conspired there. Other than their lack of trust they are rather shrewd and look to escape danger or trap their foe in creative ways. Nywah is very set in their ways and is very self-assured.
=== Goals ===
Nywah wishes to return home by any means possible. This has been made difficult as they dont understand the language of those around them and they move far too frequently to pick up more than basic greetings. Such as this, Nywah cant get a job and has been known to even beg on the streets, begging strangers in a language the locals don't understand. As such, they have had to adapt to what they can do with their limited skillset and options. Their first taste of crime aside from being chased out of their home and declared a traitor was stealing from a blacksmith in the first port city they arrived in. The little money they found in the shop, as well as a dagger they found was able to aid them in surviving. The dagger that she took would aid them in further procurements of food, money and clothing and helped them survive via muggings in alleys in this foreign town. Nywah once had to flee to the seas again once this new areas authorities started pursuing them too, this time for real crimes. Nywah will do hits, bandit and mug or do odd jobs to ensure that they have enough money to fund their next shot at getting home, without understanding the language of the lands she is brought to.
=== Opinions ===
Nywah Laguire, as a former political activist has many strong political opinions on varying figures of importance in Eastern Sparwood. At the time of their departure from Sparwood, they hated Tovarisha with passion, and are a staunch authoritarian, in favour of a Frosterium like military dictatorship. Their opinions were formed out of the mess that was post-Frosterium Sparwood, watching the strengths of certain nations wane due to poor diplomacy or their dire military states. They knew that despite some of the poor adminstration of Paradise, the military focus it took would protect it against any incursion. The queen of Paradise however, sacrificed some of this for marginally better administration and allowed the communists in Tovarisha to take over the region they called home. Nywah joined and rose to prominence in activist groups opposed to the communist government, although not wanting to restore the old monarchy as they saw how it collapsed to Red demands and how it could have been made better in many ways. They looked around Sparwood at the other nations and saw the Caligo worshipping northerners in Kartek as but a puppet of Asytellea due to its roots and Asytellean chosen leader. They saw the Ecclesians almost lose a battle to the Red remnants of Braznichya. They saw Frosmyre, once at the head of Sparwood, turn into a Huitcan puppet. Their hatred of almost all nations around them lent no favours to their search for allies to throw off the communist yoke, but didn't save them from being targeted the oncoming purges.
