Nyx was born on Kiffu, the youngest child out of four siblings. Her childhood was spent well, amongst family and kinsmen. Yet in her late adolescence, her home was raided by brazen slavers; it was so unexpected that the Kiffar clan was caught off guard. During the skirmish, young Nyx was taken. It was believed she, along with other children, were targeted specifically for her clan’s abilities with the Force. When the chaos settled, Nyx, along with a few others, were gone, spirited away off-world into the bowels of the galaxy underworld.

The slavers, having misunderstood the finite skills of retrospection, believed the Kiffar were accomplished seers, and thus marketed the children off as oracles. This, however, was not the case. Nevertheless, Nyx soon found herself in the clutches of a cult, one which worshipped darkness and all that encompassed. Whilst nearly all of the cult members were not force sensitive themselves, they tried incorrectly to use Nyx in order to further their own knowledge and power. On numerous occasions, she was exposed to (supposedly) dark items and objects, looted or acquired from parts of the galaxy; luckily, many were benign but the few that weren't proved horrific to interact with. During this time, the occultists marked Nyx with symbols of their belief, further subjugating her till she was rescued when a cell of Jedi shadows, in turn, raided the occultist stronghold.

Nyx remained with the Jedi after this, recovering from her ordeal slowly. She soon became unwilling to leave, feeling the Order gave her a degree of protection; in doing so, she became a padawan.

Sensitive by nature, Nyx retreated into herself during her captivity. The cultist markings on Nyx’s face are a great source of shame for her, and she often covers them with a veil or mask, along with baggy robes. Given her people’s warrior-like reputation, she felt she could have fought harder against her enslavement. Also, because of the cultist markings, she feels unworthy to receive her official clan’s facial tattoos, the qukuuf. She has not returned to Kiffu since she was taken and still does not know the fate which befell her family.

Though Nyx tries to hide it through indifference, Nyx is still deeply shaken by her torments; she is understandably fearful of the Dark Side and will try her utmost to avoid anything related to it.

Whilst not intentionally hostile, Nyx can be distrustful of others. She has become known as a bit of a recluse amongst the other padawans, shunning most of their company. She prefers solitude and has begun to hone her combative skills once more, preferring that over meditation as she does not like reflecting too deeply with the Force just yet.

Like some of her kinsmen, Nyx was born with the ability of psychometry, a skill that allows her to sense the memories of other beings by touching objects that they had come into contact with. However, due to horrific experiences, and lack of actual training, she is very reluctant to develop this ability (at this stage in time). Though her connection with the force is as strong as any other padawan, she seems to opt more for physical skills, such as combat and mechanical repairs. Whilst she could develop skills in tracking (like those of her people) she has shown little interest to do so thus far.
