Nyra Do'Sehk

Nyra Do'Sehk is a former classmate of Ivory's from their days at Erdyn Academy for the Arcane. While they entered school as a sorcerer, they chose to control and channel their magic into a more stable pursuit of wizardry, specifically divination magic. Nyra was critically injured by a Wild Magic surge by Ivory before they disappeared, leaving her to deal with the consequences on her own. She re-entered Ivory's life years later when the two had a chance meeting on a boat headed to the Tentalienne Islands from Port Diara, Kairken.

## Description

### Appearance

Nyra has grey-skin (often assumed to have a blue or purple tint) and a silver-blue buzzcut. Her eyes are a similar shade of light grey-blue. They have extensive burn scars covering the left side of their scalp, face, neck, and shoulder, though the extent of the scarring beyond the line of their compression garments and long-sleeved shirts is unknown. While they don't hide their facial scarring the majority of the time, they do sometimes wear a loose headscarf for ease of travel.

### Personality

Nyra is cautious and understandably bitter. Because of Ivory's lost memory, no one in the Fated Four knows what she was like before the accident. In the wake of it, though, Nyra is closed-off and naturally irritable. She is very focused on her studies, her image, and control, especially around Ivory. However, after working together to clear the Fated Four's name after they were framed for a murder and slowly spending more time around Ivory, Nyra seemed to warm up slightly, changing from apprehensive to hesitantly curious, and making a few careful attempts to reach out and at least find a truce between them. Nyra is traumatized and needs time to let herself trust, but is still a kind and inquisitive person when she lets herself be.

## Biography

### Background

Nyra's background isn't very well-known to the party, though during a heart-to-heart with Ivory, she did mention high expectations from parents in relation to her struggles in school. She seems to still chase after those expectations while going to her new academy, Medora School of Magics. She began her magical path as an elemental sorcerer, but focused her studies on magical control instead and pursued wizardry.

## Relationships

**Flower of Ivory**

Ivory and Nyra were very close friends during their time in school together. They made a bit of a trio set with one other sorcerer named Min, who Nyra has also spoken about with affection, though only vaguely. Nyra has suggested they spent a lot of time together and may have had something more going on at one point--going to school dances together, etc. Over time, their relationship grew slightly more tense and competitive, until eventually their friendship ended very sharply when Ivory's Wild Magic caused an accident that severely injured her. Ivory ran without saying goodbye or leaving an explanation, and Nyra assumed the incident was a deliberate sabotage. Though the two of them seem to have "made up" as best they can after reconciling on the way to the Tentalienne Islands, becoming hesitantly and cautiously affectionate with each other, there is still a lot of long-standing pain and tension lingering around the two of them.
