Nikolas Minin was born in Vyatskoye, a small picturesque town within Russia, with a natural pull toward spiritual energy. He was naturally lucky, confidence practically radiating off of him as he grew up. He'd always heard about 'superheros', intrigued by the aspect of helping the public, but he'd never experienced it within his country.. other than the Red Guardian, but did he even count? Growing up, his hardships were sparse, but Minin shrugged that off to a million logical things. Like his rich family or humorous coincidences, but deep down, he knew something was off. For a while, he simply focused on his growing interest in loud music, the visuals of dancing bodies and strange substances, finding himself growing a small audience of people enjoying his beats. It was enjoyable, yes, but something stirred inside of him. At the age of eighteen, he heard the first whispers of witchery- of Scarlet Witch and the magic of Supersoldiers within his very nation.
Soon, Nikolas was catching and studying up on all the horrifying things he missed while within the depths of the Russian clubs, trying witchcraft as a joke as first. He'd been plenty intoxicated, and put his mind on trying to perform a ritual upon a simple broomstick. His friend's jokes of him being 'a witch' could only be brushed off for a little while, so why not try the most stereotypical thing that witches could do? Within the woods, Niko saw a broom take form, gravitate right into his hand, unfortunately confirming the theory. It was no wonder that his music caused such a perfect club environment, he was basically casting a protection spell on them!
With this new knowledge, his actions didn't change, mostly. He put more heart in his beats, with the very intention to keep his space as safe as possible. Each and every show performed incredibly well, causing a mass viral moment after no one was blipped from his show on that unfortunate day. He saved them, without even realizing. As he grew more popular, he thought about moving to the best club scene in New York everyday, eventually packing up and shipping himself off after the events that happened with that shadow-y guy. If he could possibly save a couple folk, then why not do both his passions at once within the most dangerous place on Earth?
Currently, Nikolas lives in an apartment within Manhattan, playing on occasional nights within underground clubs.
Niko is predominantly a protection witch via edm music, with the ability to fly a broom. He can cast spells if he truly wanted to, but doesn't usually apply himself to that degree. He's naturally lucky, especially when he's creating his music. He has plenty of weaknesses, of course, most of them relating to his substance abuse. He's dependant and desperate, finding his powers significantly weaker when he isn't under the influence. A naturally weak witch that gets a boost when he's intoxicated in some way.
