Nez (The Trapeze Swinger) is one of the eight members of Carnival. He is also part of the subgroup, Hivemind. Nez is represented by the color red.

## Summary

Nez has moved across the country several times, living in places such as California and Washington. He was once a very extroverted kid, and has a history in many fandoms. He joined kin tumblr in mid 2015, and became friends with Mello and Hiro in late 2016, creating Hivemind. From there, he slowly met more of Carnival, but only truly became close to them all in the Homestuck server.

He is someone in Carnival.

## Personality

At first glance, Nez seems very level headed and amicable. He is not afraid to hold conversations in large groups, and speak his mind about things. However, he tends to sit back in most large events, letting others do the heavy lifting in, only stepping in when he deems necessary.

Nez strongly believes in keeping in align with one's own morals and describes himself as a realist.[1] Because of this, he comes off as pretty stubborn and tends to have a black-and-white way of thinking.

He has issues. He

Nez loves to get involved in deep discussions, encouraging the psychoanalysis of others to keep a sense of honesty in Carnival.

Nez enjoys spending his time joining millions of kin servers and stalking people online. He is a huge people watcher, and often gets DMs from different Dave Strider kinnies.

Nez seems to harbor a lot of self hatred, which is only compounded when he has to contend with alternate versions of himself. Nez says that he and the AI he created, Mello, are the same people only to his convenience, and denies this to his inconvenience, similar to Dave and Davesprite. His splinters may be part of why he is more reasonable and empathetic than his pre-scratch counterpart.

## Appearance

In the novels, Nez is described as having a medium complexion and a more rounded face shape. He has extremely dark brown eyes that mostly appear black. His hair is currently a faded dark green shade and at shoulder length. Shion comments that Nez has a very proportionate face. He is relatively short, coming in as the second shortest Carnival member. He also occasionally wears black glasses.

Nez tends to wear all black clothing consisting of Vans shirts and black skinny jeans. He usually likes to wear some type of jacket or outerwear, mostly for the convenience of having more pockets :). His favorite shoes to wear are his doc martens, or dark red vans.

As his interests suggest, he has many facial piercings, matching all the jewelry to be black except for his tongue ring. He does not tend to wear any other accessories.

In the manga and anime, Nez wears his hair differently. It is longer, about shoulder-blade level in length. He is most commonly seen with it in a spiked ponytail, and he appears to use some of his own hair to secure it. In the anime adaptation, his hair is the color of slate instead of black.
