Ninthalor is generally a very charming and passionate person. He has no problem flattering others, and nearly always flirts with people he's only just met. He takes great pride in his appearance and has enough beauty products to put a princess to shame. That being said, he's also rather haughty and disdainful, disliking being around filthy places or unclean people. He's very conscientious of how he portrays himself and how others view him, to the point it could be considered an obsession.

While he enjoys engaging in flirtations and having one-night stands, Ninthalor rarely stays in one place long and never allows himself deeper emotional attachments. He has a fondness for alchemy and will oftentimes pause in his travels to document plants he's never seen before, or harvest alchemical ingredients. Light magic is his strongest suit, ranging from summoning balls of light to burn or blind his enemies to calling forth shards of the sun to unleash massive amounts of damage. He struggles with most other forms of magic, and usually gets frustrated with his studies enough to quit before he makes any progress.

Having been raised by a very well-to-do, manipulative family, he learned from a very young age how to read people and use cunning to control the situation. Being at the bottom of the pecking order, however, meant he had to master tailoring his reactions to not only strangers, but also his own family. Despite many long years of toxicity and emotional abuse, it took the death of his fiance to get Ninthalor to finally leave his family behind and set out on his own. Even now, he has trouble being authentic, instead habitually hiding behind different masks that vary depending on the person or situation.

> Perhaps one of Ninthalor's greatest powers is his ability to fuse bodies with Ru for short periods of time. He gains birdlike grace and speed alongside physical manifestations of wings and clawed hands and feet. However, the longer their bodies are merged, the greater the danger of being unable to separate becomes. If they become stuck in a single form, they will lose sentience as well.

> While Ninthalor is undeniably bisexual, he comes off as flamingly gay to most people who first meet him. He's very flamboyant and dramatic, but he has a great weakness towards pretty women of most races, and has been known to flirt with anything vaguely feminine-shaped (which has led to more than one embarrassing incident or punch to the jaw when the very much masculine object of his flirtations realized he assumed they were a woman.)

> Tephye was the first to give Ninthalor the nickname 'Ninny,' which quickly caught on among their family members. Despite loathing the insulting nickname, no matter how much he begs for the name to disappear, Tephye continues to call him that.

> He's actually only 6'4, but with his platformed shoes he reaches 6'6 and that's what he claims to be naturally when anyone asks him.

> Ninthalor is an extreme lightweight, and a rather clingy, emotional drunk. This means he tries to limit when he hits the tankard after a particularly hard day, and sobbing about it to whoever happens to be closest and doesn't shove him away fast enough.
