[ ON THE SURFACE ]
Physical Description:
Being a relatively tall, long, but slim tigress, Nechbet looks ‘young’. It’s as if she’s still meant to gain some weight with time. Despite of that one can’t see any bones sticking out at awkward angles. Beneath the silky fur you’ll find lean muscles working whenever she moves. She walks gracefully, and barely makes any noise thanks to the soft, charcoal gray cushions on the bottoms of her paws.
In her golden eyes one can see both hunger and intelligence. She has a very good sight, even during the night. Whenever that isn’t enough, though, she uses her hearing to trace her prey or opponent. Aside from that she also uses her ears to express herself better whenever words aren’t enough.
As for the Hollow specifics: The right side of her head is covered with a mask, its smooth surface reaches from her ear all the way to her upper lip where it ends in a fang-shaped point. The Hollow hole is situated on the upper side of her tummy and can be seen when looked at from above, then it’s centered in the middle a bit below the shoulder blades.
Spiritual Description:
Nechbets aura is a mixture of thin sunrays early in the morning and the laziness of a Sunday afternoon. It’s both relaxing and tiring at the same time. A gentle warmth spreads in the area around her when she releases some of her energy. It has the tendency to relax her prey and lessen the potentially present aggressiveness or paranoia.
[ BEHIND THE EYES ]
Personality:
The decades haven’t made Nechbet any less curious or impulsive. She follows her instincts and thirst for knowledge whenever interacting with someone and waits, somewhat impatiently, for opportunities to present themselves for her to take. This means that being ‘morally correct’ isn’t something that she concerns herself with too much, and as long as it doesn’t become a matter of pride she’ll do what’s best for her.
In general Nechbet can’t sit still, there is always some sort of urge present that’s trying to push her to do things. Exploring, conquering, killing and devouring. All of it briefly satisfies the tigress but once she’s had it something else immediately takes the former’s place. That’s why she’s mostly been wandering alone. For Nechbet to stick around someone they’ll have to keep on giving her something for her to feed herself on, figuratively speaking.
Goals & Achievements:
The current object of her desire is Las Noches. Now that she’s found it, Nechbet would like to explore it and see whether there are opportunities hidden there which she could exploit.
[ GUARDIAN ANGEL ]
Aspect of Death: Desire
Both during her human life and her life as a Hollow Nechbet could never get enough of something. No matter what she got, who she met, or where she went to, there was always a need for something else. It wasn’t as if she wanted to pile up her belongings or have everyone love her no matter what, in fact, she wasn’t, and still isn’t, entirely sure what it is that her heart’s been yearning for. Like an invisible force the longing and craving pushes her through every action she takes in a hope to satisfy her basic needs.
Power: Has the ability to create and control both sand and glass.
Zanpakutō: N/A
[ LEGACY CREATED ]
Origin:
Born in England, toward the end of the 19th century, into a wealthy family, she was named Elizabeth. Growing up into a pale, dark haired beauty with a lot of wishes, she often got her way when wanting something.
As a far cousin to Younghusband, who was an important face of the British expedition to Tibet, she was allowed to participate in it. Traveling under the protection of her far cousin and a couple of officers, Elizabeth set out to explore and map the lands they crossed. Her desire to witness new things, discover ‘exotic’ places, help her country to get advantage in Central-Asia on the Imperial Russia, and most importantly her wish to be remembered later in history became her end. She died of a lung infection before the expedition came to an end. Unable to make peace with dying before achieving her goals she was bound to wander the land until her chain of fate was consumed by time, that’s when she turned into a Hollow.
Rise to Power:
Between feeding on earth and wandering through Hueco Mundo, the Hollow noticed that there were periods when the world of the living had plenty of food. Slowly but gradually she paid more and more attention to finding those periods and consume as many souls as she could. Wars, as they turned out to be called, were perfect for her lifestyle, but weren’t the only points in history she could get snacks at. Having found densely inhabited camps with few guardians in Siberia, the Hollow kept paying the camps visits throughout the years. They kept her satisfied, but they weren’t enough to give her enough energy to subdue the other voices. That was until a period for harvesting came again. In 2004 many died because of a natural disaster, said people had not been ready to die, hence a lot of them stuck around. The Hollow, who by then had taken on the name of Nechbet - a link to the moon -, was there to feed. With hundreds of souls and dozens of newborn Hollow-breeds behind her molars, she squeezed the voices still left and broke free from the sluggish body of the Gillian. In her new form, she then returned home, no longer wanting to live in the forest, she chose the desert of Hueco Mundo.
Call to Action:
Wandering the Wastelands Nechbet fed on those weaker than her and carefully avoided those too strong for her to conquer. With some she bonded a bit, and in order to maintain her sanity she briefly stayed with groups of Hollow-breeds before moving forward again. During one of those encounters a bony castle was mentioned. The source of all power in the realm, according to one of the Hollow, the home of their leaders, according to another. Unable to shake off the curiosity born from the idea of such a place, she wanted to see it with her own eyes. That’s why Nechbet set out to find the place. The desire to see if opportunities would present themselves for her once she would get to Las Noches grew stronger with every rumor she heard. Every step she took had her desire to reach this unknown destination grow. Finally, after a journey of over a decade, she stumbled onto the broken wall which would lead her into a whole different world.
