abilities: main one is fire manipulation, also used as a weapon for attacking or for defense. because of his wings, he is capable of flying and has mastered it quite well. he is also able to heal wounds with his tears, however he has not yet figured out how to cry on command, so this ability isn’t something he relies on often. lastly, as expected from a phoenix, he can ressurect himself, but this is something which he is adamant about not attempting (again).
appearance: has large feathery wings and tail, both are a mixture or warm colors and tones such as red, orange, yellow and gold. 6ft (182cm) tall, bright blue eyes, long natural red hair which he mostly keeps in a messy ponytail or bun. his clothing style varies between masculine and feminine, but it’s always very classy and rich, not because he wants it that way but because his parents and other family members keep providing him with such clothing, and he has no reason to complain. includes different colored suits, long gala dresses, button up shirts, suit pants, a variety of bowties and normal ties, vast array of high heels and platform shoes. while he’s at home, just resting, he prefers to wear simpler and more comfortable clothing.
backstory: born into a very rich family, of french ancestry, which is why he and his entire family have french sounding names. although he doesn’t mind his full name, he prefers to use the nickname nic or nico. since he doesn’t care much about the extravagant lifestyle, he’s not the one to brag about or flaunt it. born as a male, but discovered his true gender and sexuality at the age of 16. his parents and close family have always been supportive of both his gender and sexuality, even though they don’t fully understand it. he has always had a pretty good relationship with them, although they believe that he doesn’t appreciate his wealth and family as much as he should. when he was 18, his father took him to get a uniquely made fitch coat, but instead of choosing a ferret whose fur would be used for the coat, he chose one to keep as a pet, and named her fuzzykins. since then, the two have been inseparable, with nico taking fuzzy everywhere he goes. because of his bird-like nature, nico is allergic to chocolate, but loves the taste of it, which resulted in multiple hospital visits throughout his life. upon turning 20, he decided to follow his family’s tradition and attempt a resurrection. what started off as an important milestone in a phoenix’ life, quickly turned to disaster, as he set on fire not only himself, but a bookshelf nearby, which resulted in him burning down his then-boyfriend’s house, in which he was performing the resurrection. his boyfriend, edan, lost his life in the fire, and because of this, nico swore he would never again attempt a resurrection; continously blaming himself for what happened and not being able to forgive himself.
