Nickelae's pride as a fighter often leads him to deny any sort of fear he may feel towards his enemies, even though some grimms like Nevermores frighten him. When faced with one, he may put on a brave face and force himself to fight but inside he'd be terrified. This often leads to him unconsciously using more dust in his attacks to make them stronger.

Backstory:
Nickelae was born the youngest of five to a father who worked as a trader and a huntress mother. Nickelae's father ran a medium size trading company, however, rumors have been heard that the company does more than sells goods, as in that Rasu Nickelae's father has been selling weapons to local mob families in the kingdom of Mistral. Alongside this company, Nickelae's sister Luna runs a scavenging company in Vacuo and has been selling scrap metal to local blacksmiths and other kingdom's blacksmiths, as well as finding dust caves from time to time and setting up small mining outposts to gather small batches of dust from the caves she finds. Nickelae’s Second oldest sister Clover is a part time huntress and a wine seller.

His third oldest sister Silvia is a Vacuo scientist and runs a small research team in studying aura, Grimm, and dust. Nickelae's fourth oldest sister, Aysel who has just graduated from hunters training in Mistral, has since then been working with her father from time to time when not out bounty hunting. He started his journey at Cirque De Nightingale.Where he learned how to use the various forms of dust and concoct his own dust use out of the various forms. Alongside learning some slide of hand tricks and theft skills. It was also there that Nickelae gained a connection with a human boy named Flint. For a while, at first, Nickelae and Flint didn’t get along but they eventually grown to like each other. The training was hard and vigorous. During the day, Nickelae read and practice the various forms dust to find out which ones suited him the most.Once he had his dust form figured out.He was trained in it uses. At night, he learned how to blend in with the shadows and how to copy people's footsteps when sneaking up on someone’s pocket.

In his early teens, Nickelae found out his father was doing illegal trading of weapons to local and foreign criminal agencies through the black market when he was sent to help out one of his dad's employers with a few small jobs. After he found out Nickelae went away on a small trip to a nearby forest to blow off his anger towards his father and burn it on a number of Grimms. During that time, he began to try to think of a plan to stop his father between battles. It was during this time that his mother was coming home from a hunt and found her son in the forest. She talked to him long enough for her to find out that he discovered his father's secret operations and warned him about the dangers of some of his plans and how he isn’t ready yet to face his father and probably never will be that skilled, trying to convince him to just leave his father's business at peace and avoid a dangerous situation. She told him that if he chooses he could leave Mistral and head to Vale to join Beacon academy to become stronger, hoping that he’d try to come up with a more reasonable solution to his moral dilemma and so that he would be far away from his father’s reach and business for a while, hoping that absence would make his heart grow fonder of his father. While he grows in order to be able to fight his father and his legion of mobsters. He later vows to become a hunter to stop his father.

Little did Nickelae know was that his mother was in on his father's plans and was wanting him to grow up to be a huntsman to stop his father so that she could take over the family business.

As Nickelae left Mistral for Vale.He made his way to through the forest of Vale and stumbled upon a small village.He bought himself a room to stay at the inn for the night till he could get to Vale and into Beacon.While walking around the village, he smelled food coming from a farm.An seeing as he didn’t bring food with him.He decided to try and steal some food from the farms barn. It is here that he comes into contact with a very angry girl.Her Name is Hoshi. During their interesting introduction.Hoshi noticed that Nickelae wasn’t fighting back against her.Nickelae explained to her that it goes against his Teacher’s teachings.

After Hoshi stopped trying to club Nickelae.She asked him if he could teach her how to move like he does.He said he would but only if she gave him food.It was from there that their friendship grew.After spending a few months teaching Hoshi how to move like a theft.It was during one of their walks around Hoshi’s Village that a theft ran off with Hoshi’s purse.Being a gentleman Nickelae told Hoshi he would go after the person. However, Hoshi insisted on joining him.Which was a good thing as the theft had a few friends. Nickelae did his best to quickly take out a few of them, however, the one with Hoshi’s purse was getting away with each new thug blocking their way. So Nickelae told Hoshi he would go after the theft if she held off the thugs.She told him she would and he ran after the theft.Nickelae did his best to keep up with the theft only losing track of her/him on few occasions.Once Nickelae caught up with the theft.

The two fought on the bridge leading out of Hoshi’s village.To say it was easy for Nickelae to beat the theft would be an understatement as Nickelae had to be creative with fight her as she was few years older than him and she was a girl. Something Nickelae’s Mentor forbid him from harming. An so Nickelae did his best from harming the woman by creating a fog with the ice and fire dust he had then used wind dust on his dagger he managed to knock the woman into the river below.An with water dust he washed her onto the shore.Where he took back Hoshi’s purse and froze the woman’s hands and feet for the village’s sheriff to arrest her. An with a few broken ribs and cuts.Nickelae had managed to return Hohsi her purse. It was Late that night that he came in contact with a man who called himself Master.An will Nickelae tried to fight the man thinking him an another theft.

But when he fought the man he knew just then that the man wasn’t just a common theft.He was a hunter an honest to god hunter and the man he was looking for to gain the power to be able to defeat his father and stop his life of crime.An while he hated it.He called the man his new Mentor.An he was shown to a man Named Arthur.An from there Arthur helped Nickelae smooth out his rough fighting style and turning it into an art in a way.After a few years of training Nickelae was ready for Beacon and so he set his sight on the entrance exam.An now he is in Beacon with his team.
