Nico Bodaveg

"My whole life has been nothing but hell, day in and day out."

- Nico Bodaveg, in "Jaune Arc" Nico Bodaveg is one of the four major characters of the story LNCE of Kresnik. A member of Team LNCE, he is the oldest child of the Bodaveg Family, a distinguished line of Huntsmen and Huntresses, though he reveals that they prioritized being weapons first and then humans second.

Nico appears to be the only known character in LNCE that does not follow Monty Oum's established "color" rule, with the authors' reasoning being that the Bodaveg family was too prideful for symbolic aspects and instead relying on their own strength. Despite that, Nico's color is listed as "black."

Nico is also the love interest of Ruby Rose, and is the father of the Fractured Dimension's Quartz Rose.

Character Design
Nico is the same age as Ruby, being fifteen years old, but is slight taller with a muscular frame due to his training. He has messy, spiky black hair and gold eyes, wearing rather heavy clothing such as red cargo jeans and black boots, along with a red bandanna around his forehead. He doesn't usually like to wear a shirt, claiming it chaffs his skin. He also sports several black tattoos, which are actually apart of his Semblance.

Personality-wise, Nico is reserved and blunt, but shares a similar like of weapons with Ruby. However, he examines weapons much more thoroughly; he can tell a person's personality simply by examining it's design. He was able to tell that Ruby was quite enthusiastic about weapons by how much time and effort she put into designing Crescent Rose, but also her social awkwardness by the fact that she added in a rifle-mod function. He is very reserved around others, but once he comes to know then, he is actually stoic, if not cynical, but is a genuinely good person at heart. Nico also greatly cares for the people in his life, enough so that he is more than willing to brutally beat anyone who threatens them to within an inch of their life.

He also has absolutely no respect, admiration, or semblance of familial bond with his family. He even showed some form of resentment towards them. This resentment soon became utter hate and disgust when he learned that they would disown and abandon his younger sister, who was inflicted with a rare disease known as "aura deficiency," leaving the patient with hardly any aura at all. Even the mere mention of the Bodaveg family is enough to make a dark look appear on his face.

Since becoming apart of Team LNCE, Nico has also become slightly more lively, possibly a result of Eden Flaemis' influence. He has also become more aware of his own faults and shortcomings, and has become more open around others, evident in his interaction with Jaune and Pyrrha, informing them of his past. He is particularly comfortable around Ruby, the second person he met after Eden the day before Initiation.
