Before you looms an intimidating titan of a woman. A physical specimen, she stands well over six foot (very tall for a woman) and in excess of a hundred-ninety pounds, fit more for professional netball or the UFC than the middle aged ex-housewife she purports to be. Thick with lean muscle, there is hardly an ounce of fat anywhere on her. She moves like the wind, a terrifying combination of sheer physical size and power combined with an impossibly durable frame built for heavy fighting. Her skin is tough like bark and here and there leaves sprout unbidden, often in inconvenient locations, like between her fingers. | Before you looms an intimidating titan of a woman.

- Nym is a newly raised member of the Fey Court and a minor deity with several domains, notably protection, nature and Travel. You can pray to her and she can sense her 'name' being invoked in from a vast distance. She can also sense when others tap into spells, powers or skills that have any of her domains as a key theme. | - Nym is a newly raised member of the Fey Court and a minor deity with several domains, notably protection, nature and Travel.

− | Nym is a reluctant deity. She rarely answers calls for the sake of he own peace of mind and is usually content to let others resolve their own problems for the most part, but particularly impassioned pleas can move her. She does acknowledge all the prayers that she can but only commits as a last resort. She can grant some of her power to others in close physical proximity, or when another is closely aligned with her thematically. | + | - Her presence is extremely reassuring and soothing. Minor injuries will begin to regenerate automatically in her presence (major injuries may take time) and emotional pain will seem distant in her presence, even aches and pains and fatigue from the day's activities can wash away in her presence. |

+ | - She is a veteran of countless battles against the enemies of Gaia and an old hand at the Secret World Mythos. The way she moves, the way she carries herself, speaks to excellence, the type that doesn't need to be demonstrated to be felt. | ||

''Protection:'' This domain extends to protecting others or self, wards, abjuration magicks. Those who need shelter or protection are often drawn to her without knowing why and Nym will often protect those who are less experienced than she is.

Her presence provides those who wish it great reassurance and a sense of peace, that everything is under control. | ''Protection:'' This domain extends to protecting others or self, wards, abjuration magicks.

This section is just for flavour and a little insight into Nym's hardbitten personality. Consider it like when you click an NPC in the game and they have that 'about them' section where they detail their worldview and thoughts on the Secret World. | This section is just for flavour and a little insight into Nym's hardbitten personality.
