[edit] Characteristics
Nish originally appears as a rather callow youth, however through out the series, he develops into a respectable young man. Nish was shorter than the average human male, something he ffound humiliating. He was stocky with a spotty face. He was not ugly, but not handsome either. Nish had thin brown hair, that clung to the very contours of his head. His eyes were also dark.
Nish once feared being sent to the front lines to do battle with the enemy lyrinx and be effectively marching to his death beyond all things. However, he eventually becomes great in courage and does many noble deeds.
After being sentenced to ten years of imprisonment by his father Jal-Nish, Nish undergoes several physical changes. He becomes extremely thin, from lack of food, losing much of his previous strength. His hair having not been cut in the ten years of his sentence, reached below his buttocks and began to recede at the front. After his rescue, Nish cuts his hair so that it is no longer than a thumb joint.
