Fun Fact: Nevi was crafted out of a Neopet character I owned when I was about eight years old.
Backstory: Nevi was less than a month old when the change came upon her. She and her mother were running on the ice that had formed over the lake in the village when the ice cracked. Her mother had managed to fly away, but Nevi, with her underdeveloped wings, was trapped. Her mother flew frantically to get help as Nevi slowly slipped below the water. Her mother never returned. What felt like an eternity later, Nevi finally emerged from the lake. She had awoken a changed creature - not quite alive, but not quite dead.
Returning to her village, scared and confused, she looked for her mother. Screams of vulgarity soon followed as she was chased out of her small, conservative village with her glowing tail between her legs and tears stinging her vermilion eyes - it would seem that the undead has no place amongst the living.
Filled with resentment and boiling anger, Nevi hid in the forest. She couldn't recall the moment when her coat had changed from a golden yellow to a faded hue of grey and blue, but the residents of her old village certainly did as they chased her out with pitchforks and flames - the word abomination still ringing in her ears. Oh, how they would regret that.
Eons of time has passed, and Nevi has yet to accept her ghostly nature. Why should she? There are still so many questions left unanswered.
