Around 500 years ago, Nicole was one of the two heroes that fought alongside Zacian and Zamazenta to defeat the fell god Eternatus. While they were victorious, all 4 perished in the battle – and Nicole was revived as Zacian’s emissary.
Ever since then, she’s made a note to keep a fairly low profile, watching the Galar region from the secluded safety of the Slumbering weald. But when a new young hero and a soul-searching legend stumbled upon her, she took interest, watching them both and eventually assisting them in defeating the fell god once again.
She’s since revealed her legendary identity to them both, and while the young hero was enthusiastic, the other legend was… not so much. Still, she aims to work together to unite the ever-divided legends of the Western Continent.
With Reshiram’s emissary, will Nicole be able to finally achieve her goal? Or will she just be stuck playing mediator the whole time?
Appearance
Nicole is 6’2″, with a muscular, stocky build. She had long orange-red hair put into a braid, and yellow eyes. Across her face is a scar, and she’s missing part of the top on one of her ears.
Her fashion tends to lean towards more suited for cold weather, and she’s commonly seen wearing a blue overcoat, gloves, and boots.

Personality
Nicole is calm and knowledgeable, and takes great pride in her human past as a knight. Still, she’s actually quite averse to conflict unless she deems it entirely necessary.
While some can get an intimidating aura from her, she’s usually very quiet, straightforward, and polite. Due to not getting outside of Slumbering Weald often, she tends to miss social cues or respond to them in a dated manner.
Story
I’ll get to it… eventually.

Combat:
- Given that Nicole was originally a knight, she’s very well versed in both the art of swordplay and unassisted combat. While she’s definitely more skilled with a weapon, it still wouldn’t be wise to fight her at all.
- She still has her original set of armor, and will spend a good amount of time making sure it’s still up to par after so many years.
Relationships
Angie – Ally
Nicole doesn’t really understand what makes Angie so bitter towards her, but she figures it’s something Angie has to figure out for herself. Otherwise, she sees Angie as a strong-willed and motivated individual.
Hop – Protective towards
Hop’s energy has rubbed off on Nicole in a positive way, and she almost sees him as a nephew figure. While she’s concerned of his willingness to get into dangerous battles, she admires his courage and vows to protect him.
Francis – Friend
Despite serving as a knight under Francis’s wife’s monarchy 500 years ago, Nicole didn’t meet her until she regained her human form with Angie’s help. While they get along very well due to originally being alive at the same time, Nicole feels as though Francis is too cowardly for her own good.
Aurelien – Annoying
Difficult, annoying, and is making everything harder than it should be.
