NiGHTS

**NiGHTS** (ナイツ, *Naitsu*), is both a fictional character and protagonist from the *Nintendo's* *NiGHTS* series created by Takashi Iizuka. NiGHTS is a genderless First-level Nightmaren who travels in the dream world battling the forces of darkness.

As a Nightmaren however, NiGHTS' origin is henceforth the dark realm of Nightmare. NiGHTS was one of Wizeman's most powerful creations, and meant to do evil. But due to a remarkably mischievous free spirit, NiGHTS rebelled and betrayed their own kind.

NiGHTS subsequently allied themselves with Visitors to stop Wizeman from taking over the Dream World and eventually, the Waking World. However, NiGHTS' motivation was simply because they did not like Wizeman, not because they were inherently "good".

### Appearance

NiGHTS is a slender, humanoid First-level Nightmaren with beige skin, large blue/purple eyes with vertical slit pupils, and thin eyelashes. Their head and hands are not connected to their body in any visible form, as it is seemingly only made apparent by their clothes.

#### In the Young Days

Originally, NiGHTS wore a brightly-colored suit consisting of purple unitard-like legs with pink and yellow feet and two white buttons in front of the waist; a pink vest-like torso with triangular ends, yellow lining and star buttons; a large red jewel on the chest; baggy white sleeves with yellow and purple cuffs; a wide purple collar around the neck and over the shoulders; and a purple two-horned jester cowl with dark purple stripes.

#### In Present Time

In the present day, NiGHTS' attire takes on a new, slightly altered appearance. NiGHTS now wears a defined red and pink sleeveless jacket over their suit, with a yellow trim, star buttons, buttoned shoulders, and a folded collar with blue crystal studs on the front, as well as a small orange ruff concealed in it. Additionally, silver embroidery is present on the arms and legs of NiGHTS' suit and the white buttons are absent from the waist.

## Personality

NiGHTS behaves childishly and mischievously, never for a moment thinking of the consequences of their actions, for example sometimes scaring people just for fun. However, they are playful in nature and NiGHTS' actions can mostly be considered chivalrous. An overly free spirit, NiGHTS detests being ordered around or restrained, and freely flies through the skies of Nightopia. NiGHTS is full of curiosity, and loves anything new or unusual.

Although NiGHTS does not have a strong sense of righteousness, they are unhappy about Wizeman's attempts to eliminate Nightopia. They also enjoy showing Visitors around and generally see them not only as allies against Wizeman, but also as companions. Sometimes, when very relaxed, NiGHTS will pull out an invisible flute and start playing.

NiGHTS is shown to be rather sympathetic toward some of their enemies, such as Reala, which is easily turned against them. They care greatly for the Visitors, even letting themselves get captured so that they would not be harmed.

## Powers and Abilities

NiGHTS' trademark ability is flight, as they are able to fly freely and gracefully through the air. Besides flying, NiGHTS shows various other abilities in both of their games. NiGHTS can create small vortexes called Paraloops if they fly in a circle and cause an intersection of their Twinkle Dust, a bright substance emitting from their hands when they fly. NiGHTS is also able to use the Drill Dash, a technique where they vertically spin to propel forward at speed, obliterate obstacles, and dispatch enemies.

NiGHTS is able to morph their body to transform into different things and gain new abilities accordingly, including a dragon for gust resistance, a rocket for acceleration, a sled for traversing snow, or a dolphin for swimming. NiGHTS also has the ability to Dualize with Visitors, in which the Visitor and NiGHTS' bodies assimilate and the pair become one for a temporary amount of time. During the duration of the Dualized state, NiGHTS' own power is enhanced by the Visitor's.

NiGHTS is often seen playing an invisible flute on numerous occasions called the Dream Flute, which plays "Dreams, Dreams", the theme song of the *NiGHTS* series.
