Nym is the Guardian of the Tree of Emotions and the apples which grow on the branches. A job she has known since the beginning of time and a job she is very proud of. She can manipulate positive and negative emotions at will due to her connection to the tree, but unlike some other versions of herself, she is not as 'attached' or 'dependant' on the tree. She is able to do her own things whenever she wants, though it does come at the risk of her magic being weaker unless she is actively absorbing both types of the emotional spectrum.

She is also able to absorb magic straight from the tree and eat apples without concern of being corrupted due to having both sides of the spectrum equal inside of her being, though she will only do this in a life and death situation. The balance is all that matters and so long as she doesn't fall, the tree will live and as long as the tree lives or she has some of it's apples, she will remain alive as well.

For a long time, Nym was a kind and protective Guardian of the tree, though she didn't go out of her way to interact with the people and monsters within her AU other than occasionally stepping in to help out during emergencies. As far as the people in her AU were concerned she was the type of Guardian Spirit who would only show up when things were dire, rather than constantly being at their beck and call. They did not see her as a servant or somebody who existed only to serve them but a mysterious being that lived deep within the forest and only showed herself to those who were worthy.

This behavior is due to her belief that the best type of balance was the one that could be achieved without much interference. Humans and monsters alike were in charge of their own happiness and no one creature should force them to feel they could not feel on their own. A flawed mentality for those who struggled with mental health, but a mentality she stuck to no matter how bad somebody got. This flawed mentality is also what ended up leading to the terror that Nym eventually became.

it all started one day, when a desperate hunter went to Nym for help. Actively seeking out the guardian despite how taboo the action seemed to the other villagers. His son was struggling to remain happy and needed help, but Nym refused and said that if the boy could not find happiness on his own then it would be a waste of her magic. The happiness of an individual was not as important as the whole of an AU and if his actions affected more than just his son and the farmer, perhaps she would step in, but otherwise the boy would have to figure it out alone. The father, enraged attacked Nym in an attempt to get to the tree and after a brutal fight the human farmer managed to land a devistating blow to Nym. An action that resulted in her killing him then and there.

Realizing that she was quickly loosing energy to a wound that should have been fatal she stubbornly went to the tree and absorbed some of the magic from it in order to heal herself. Unfortunately, the anger that came from the attack and the frustration that came with realizing that adults - specifically human adults - would never understand how happiness worked, would never leave her. In the end, she decided to no longer help the adult humans whenever she interfered as punishment for the humans actions. She would help the children and the monsters, but the rest would have to fend for themselves and she all but locked down the forest to ensure that nobody else dared to cross that threshold.

She spent most of her time alone in the forest, as a hole of sadness clawed at her chest until one day a strange monster found his way into her forest. It was a skeleton named Ink who had black splots on his cheek and stained bones. She was hesitant and suspicious of him, but eventually calmed down enough for the two to have a proper conversation. It was these conversations that cogs in the back of her mind began to spin.

The skeleton who was apprently named Ink told her all about the multiverse and in turn she learned about other multiverses which greatly interested her. At first, Nym wasn't too concerned with the states of the other Multiverses or their Guardians, just curious on if she was handling it better as the other Nym's in the Omniverse. Though, when she asked Ink about this he admitted that there aren't a lot of Nym's left in the Omniverse, at least from what he understood. From what he knew, most of them hadbeen killed and replaced by her two children.

She was shocked and appauled by the fact that other versions of herself had been killed so easily. But what really bothered her was the fact that she had been replaced by two other monsters to control different emotional aspects. One over positivy and one over negativity, a state where there was no perfect balance or control. Though, it only got worse when she learned that in most multiverses, one of the brothers almost always became corrupted and destroyed the tree.

Desperate to ensure nothing like that happened in her Multiverse and to fix the rest of the Omniverse, she asked Ink if there was a way to get to the other Multiverses. Ink admitted that there was, but she'd need a lot of magic to get there, more magic than any one Guardian had. Though Nym knew deep down that it wasn't quite true, there was one Guardian that had all the magic she needed. So, she begged with Ink to help her find the Tree of Magic, he hesitates but hearing that she wants to help others, he agrees. Though he is shocked when the Magic Guardian and Nym get into a fight, especially when Nym immedietly gains the upper hand and manages to seriously wound. Ink tries to back up the Magic guardian to stop her, but ends up getting hit hard as a result. Ink, dazed and confused can't do much but listen as the Magic Guardian warns her not to do what she's about to do, because it will only doom what she's trying to protect, but Nym doesn't listen.

She steals some of the fruit from the magic tree, peeled off a small peace and ate it. Though, when she did she was almost immedietly overwhelemed by the magic that flooded her systems. It caused her hair and wings to grow slightly darker, her horns got sharper.

Still despite all odds she managed to contain the magic and left the AU with Ink following right behind her. Once again, Ink tries to stop her but Nym just tells him he's confused and that when she fixes things, everything will be better. Though, to ensure that he gets to see first hand just how right she is, she attacks him with a whole new brutality. In the end, she leaves him a broken husk in an empty AU. With his jaw dislocated, his arms and legs destroyed, and his brush shattered he was unable to do anything but watch as she used her new magic, ripped open a portal with such brutality that everybody in their multiverse could feel it, then slipped out into the Omniverse.

From there, she went entered her first Multiverse and followed the flow of emotions to the Tree of Emotions, or rather what was left of it. Upon seeing the tree destroyed and one of the brothers incased in stone, she let the protective rage take over her. She touched the stone and absorbed every big of emotion and magic from the young guardian until the stone crumbled under her hand. Then, she hunted down the other brother and his men and slaughtered all of them. Once the two guardians were gone, she used her magic and the stump of the original Tree of Emotions and grew a sapling to keep the balance for the multiverse as well as keep it under her control, then went back to the Omniverse.

With each Multiverse she enters she leaves a type of "tunnel" in her wake. One that others could find and follow if they were strong enough, as a result many Inks and surviving guardians have started to track her down, desperate to stop her before anything else is destroyed, but with every multiverse she visits her magic gets stronger and more dangerous and she gets bigger and darker.

More corrupted.

Nym is willing to give everybody a fighting chance, though very few have impressed her when given this chance. She completely believes in what she's doing and it is a hill she is willing to die on it. Her mind cannot be changed, though there is a way to be spared. If there is an AU where there is only one guardian or the two brothers can work together well enough to ensure the balance and peace, then they're more likely to survive. But if they are too "hands on" she might still attack them regardless, though they are much more likely to survive and "learn from their mistakes".

Nym will mostly focus on the emotion Guardians but like with the Ink from her multiverse, if any Guardian tries to get in her way, she will break them. The one who gives her the most trouble is almost always Error and even then she's gotten to fight enough she knows some of what to expect. Ink's tend to be more unpredictable and can hold her off longer than Error's can but can't do as much damage. However, other than the Guardians, she will hardly interact with anybody else unless the Guardians are being harbored by other AU's or guarded from other monsters and people.

Her Ink, who goes by Orpiment was rescued by the Error (called Glitch) of their AU after a very long time of silence. Upon finding Orpiment injured and unable to do anything due to his injuries and lack of paint, Error took Ink to get help and with his support he has gotten Orpiment back on his feet to the point where the two are now working hard to either kill Nym or bring her back to their Multiverse and trap her.
