Personality
On the surface, it's fairly easy to see that Nyx is a highly unusual person. Her foremost and most likely first-noticed trait is that she is an unabashed pervert. She has a tendency to find innuendos in even the most innocent phrases and has a tendency to include double entendres in everyday speech just for kicks; she even sometimes peeps on people she finds attractive while they change or shower with her powers unless she fears their retribution or otherwise respects that they are in a relationship. While she may not make advances towards these people, they aren't free from her perverted mannerisms.
Outside of the perversion, Nyx is a rather complex and strange individual, likely stemming from her extraplanar heritage. She is a highly-emotional person, using her instincts for much of her decision-making and often times speaking her mind freely, though she seems to know when to keep her mouth closed. Due to this, she can come across as somewhat ditzy to a few, but most definitely creepy to many, as her thought processes are far from normal.
Despite this rather twisted and creepy thought process, Nyx is very optimistic and cheerful; when Nyx isn't smiling, you know things have gotten serious. She almost always finds a way to see the bright side of a situation, and even in the cases where she does get upset or sad, often times the most minor positive thing can change her mood back to the way it usually is. It isn't unusual to see Nyx in a slump for some reason, only for a cheerful greeting or a hug to turn her mood around in a total 180.
Even though Nyx is a rather optimistic individual, her other emotions can still get the better of her, and often do so in an intense way; when she gets angry, she becomes infuriated. When she gets sad, she often enters a somewhat depressed state. Some believe that her optimism is a way to keep herself mentally healthy (for her), as falling into extreme cases of negative emotions could end up being destructive to her permanent state of mind. Or, perhaps, it's more of an effect than a cause; maybe she's optimistic because she constantly made herself happy to the point where it had an effect on her mental health? Who knows but Nyx? And maybe even she doesn't know.
Powers and Abilities
Darkness Manipulation
Nyx's main - and currently only - ability is the power to manipulate nearby darkness and shadows. She is capable of turning them into controlled constructs with either a physical or non-physical form. With a physical form, these constructs act like what they were fashioned to resemble, although their physical strength and durability is dependent on the intensity of the darkness they were sourced from. A barely-visible shadow may have the strength of a small child while pitch-black darkness will yield a construct with superhuman strength and durability.
When the shadows lack a physical form, they possess almost no way to influence the physical world; while this may seem at first glance to be a disadvantage, the construct's actions will still have a proper sensation associated with their action - often pain, as Nyx rarely uses them outside of battle applications in this form. This also has the added benefit of being less taxing on Nyx as she wastes less energy on giving them a physical form.
Nyx's most common manifestation of shadows is in the form of black, rubbery tentacles. This shape is one of the easiest for Nyx to maintain, as it is sleek, flexible, and still maintains an excellent ability to control its surroundings, making it possible for her to maintain multiple tentacles without requiring too much focus. Also, she's one hell of a pervert.
Shadow Sewing
An extesion of her shadow manipulation, a technique Nyx has dubbed "Shadow Sewing" is an ability that allows her to create threads of physical shadow and literally sew togeter pieces of material before the shadows mimic and eventually meld with the origin material, whether living or inanimate. This allows Nyx to patch up almost any wound or broken object. As a requisite, the threads must first "taste" the origin material, as Nyx says, requiring her to actually thread the shadows through it, which creates a rather painful experience for living creatures. Unlike many forms of healing magic, the fix created by Nyx's threads is immediate and restores the material back to full capacity, though it doesn't allow a person's body to build upon itself, unlike most other forms of healing. This makes the long-term viability of Nyx's shadow sewing very poor.
Shadow Jumping
Another extension of Nyx's shadow manipulation is her ability to "Shadow Jump". Nyx can create portals between any shadow anywhere in the world, but unless she has familiarized with the shadow and knows exactly where it is, travel between each shadow takes as much time as it would travelling normally by foot. Between familiar shadows, however, Nyx can jump between them in only a few seconds' time due to the interspatial anomaly that is the realm inside her shadows. Inside, only Nyx seems to be able to survive for an indefinite amount of time, as any other living creature will not only be affected by an ever-growing sense of dread, they will also find themselves unable to breathe and will eventually suffocate if left too long inside the realm.

Tropes
General
Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass - Sometimes, it's hard to take her seriously.
Femme Fatale - A rare, good variant.
Ms. Fanservice - She likes to show off her... assets.
Obfuscating Stupidity - She may seem dumb and uneducated, but she's actually learned a fair lot from other sources and is rather clever.
The Peeping Tom - An unabashed pervert through and through.
Shameless Fanservice Girl - She's sexy and she knows it~
Combat
Black Magic - What her powers are generally considered.
Combat Medic - With her ability to both hurt and heal, she can technically count as this.
Combat Sadomasochist - Oh my, yes.
Combat Tentacles - Her most common shadow manipulation.
Functional Magic - Of the Inherent kind.
Healing Factor - An odd variant. She heals her injuries with a conscious effort, but she can do so even without an available source of shadows - it is pitch-dark inside the human body, after all...
Personality
Berserk Button - Never. Ever. Threaten children. So help dog, if you hurt them? She will tear you limb from limb.
For Happiness - Her main motivation behind her crimefighting.
Inhuman Emotion - She often speaks her mind and usually lets emotion and instinct rule her decisions. The times you see her stop and think are likely few and far-between.
Appearance
Beauty is Never Tarnished - She often heals herself too quick to cause any scars.
Dark Is Not Evil - Far from it.
Trivia
IC
- While it's not hard to figure out that Nyx is a heavy masochist, few people know that she's also slightly sadistic, though this only really shows when she gets the chance to toy with criminals and the like - she doesn't enjoy hurting people who she feels don't deserve it.
- Despite not needing sleep, Nyx still has perpetual bags under her eyes, even if she ends up getting multiple nights of sleep due to cloud cover preventing her from getting moonlight.
- Nyx's favorite color is forest green, she claims her favorite food is bananas (in reality, it's baked beans), and she has a taste for techno music. This all despite what many might view as something of an emo or goth girl.
OOC
- My direct inspiration to create Nyx was Tharja from Fire Emblem: Awakening, but she's technically inspired by black/dark mages in general with no real influence on her personality.
- Despite having a very similar ability to many other characters in-game, I've done my best to work on ways to develop her powers so that they deviate from others', in my hopes that she doesn't become a stereotypical shadow-user.
- Nyx's original incarnation appeared in a cyberpunk Shadowrun-styled RP; here, she was far more sadistic than masochistic (in a sort of balance of the two), less cheery, and much more powerful due to being older with more experience and having been raised without as much hardship to send her so far down pessimistic that she winds up on optimistic, like this Nyx has.
