Random facts you should know about Nick:
he’s 6′4. yup. one tall boy.
is usually described as “thuggish”
it’s really hard to find a faceclaim that matches this kjlsdf;
just barely 18 but could easily pass for 21/22
uhh SURPRISE he’s actually a demon that’s been alive since the beginning of time
he’s referred to as the “caller of the last darkness” because he’ll be the last thing around when the light dies.
black arthur and olivia are his bio parents. olivia and daniel ryves raised him. he only found out that daniel wasn’t his bio dad a couple years ago.
which means his brother alan isn’t actually blood related to him at all, because alan’s parents are daniel and marie (some woman who passed away around when nick was born / when alan was 3)
it’s kind of obvious when you look at them -- nick looks like olivia and alan looks like daniel, but nick has always believed they’re brothers and honestly ? blood doesn’t make family . we know this .
NICK CAN’T LIE.
not because there’s anything physically stopping him but because he literally doesn’t understand how to.
language is difficult for him. it’s not inherent to his kind -- they normally speak mentally along lines of communication drawn in summoning circles. it’s a miracle he ever learned to speak at all, though you wouldn’t know it by looking at him.
he uses everything as a weapon -- his body, his words, his sword. he doesn’t let people get close to him.
though he’s kind of the dark and brooding type in looks, that’s really not him. he doesn’t have a wounded soul; he doesn’t have a soul.
he cares for one (1) person. alan. only alan.
“If he was dead a thousand years,” he said. “He would still matter. More than you ever did.”
yeah don’t touch his brother . ever . you’ll die.
nick has some hella magic but he doesn’t trust magicians.
in his lore, magicians are born with some aptitude towards magic, but they summon demons to get more power.
demons don’t have to answer these summons, but they usually do because they want to get in out of the cold -- their own dimension.
if you’ve got any questions, please ask !! i love talking about nick. here’s his headcanons tag from indie in case ur curious.

        IN THE LAST CENTURY AND A HALF,  he’s answered only one summoning,  the one that led him to getting this body.   the one that comes in the town of jameson happens rather out of the blue  ——  he’s sensed no magicians in this place,  and definitely none from the obsidian circle.   he nearly ignores it before thinking it may be of use,  instead allowing his body to be transported halfway across town and into a summoning circle.   the walls are somewhat weak,  he finds,  perhaps meant to trap something lesser than he,  but he doesn’t press against them yet.
Tumblr media
        “ you’re not a magician. ”    it’s a statement of fact,  neutral in its delivery.   nick has never seen anyone quite like this before.   his sword remains sheathed for the moment,  though small sparks of lightning dance in the shadows behind him,  the sound of thunder building.   he may have been out of the game for some time,  may walk in human form,  but he remembers when he would bury entire civilisations beneath mountains of sand and sink continents beneath the waves.   this,  in comparison,  is simple.

HERMAN TØMMERAAS - is that NICHOLAS RYVES from THE DEMON’S LEXICON?   i think he DOES remember their past,  but he looks about EIGHTEEN.   at first glance,  HE seems HONEST yet ABRASIVE.   ( alec, 19, est )
hey everyone!   i’m alec and i’m glad to be here.   i’ve been playing nick in the indie world on hnikarr since mid-july,  but i’ve been trying to find an rpg to put him in.   i’m really glad i found returned!   most people haven’t read TDL,  which is totally fine  ---  i’m going to try to set up a page that describes his backstory.   for now,  all you really need to know is the following:
he’s only 18,  but is usually mistaken for 22+ because he’s literally described as ‘thuggish’ several times
he’s a fuckin’ demon m8.   in shadowhunters terms,  he’s about equivalent to a greater demon.   very strong.
loves his swords.   he has a lot of those.   don’t touch his swords.   or his knives.   or his car.   please.
he’s literally been running from magicians since he was able to run.   smh.
