Personality/Background: 

Nemea’s birth was such a rare occurrence; as her creation came from the love between her parents, but also from the willing sacrifice of one of them. The evil creatures of legend, called windigos, were always known for their power, whose would bring the cold, harsh winter, while feeding of the ill feelings between individuals. However, there are always exceptions to the rule. One of those creatures was wildly different, as it didn’t absorb its strength through conflict, but gained it from love instead.
The princess of the night was walking under the icy cover of a winter’s day, when suddenly the snowfall started to become more of a storm. Luna found herself needing to get back home, so she could take shelter from the strong winds; however, the unexpected protection of “something”, shielded her against the snow. Much to her shock, it was one of those creatures, a Windigo.  Interestingly, it didn’t show any signs of ill will towards the princess, but it was quite passive instead. Day after day, as the winter winds howled through the land, they would meet. Even if the creature lacked the ability to talk, it was still quite great at listening. Unfortunately, as the spirit of winter and the princess of the night fell in love, they had to take an important decision, as they desired to be even closer to each other. Nemea’s father wasn’t a physical being to begin with, so the only way for them to do so, was for him to totally give up his form. The result being a little Alicorn filly, with quite the exceptional traits. Nemea has the power of a Windigo itself, but she isn’t one to her very core. Her body still holds traces, and weaknesses of being half a winter spirit. Part or her mane, consists of common hair, such as her bangs, but the largest part of it, and all of her tail, have a cold watery feeling to it, and the texture of clouds and stars, and act in the same manner as a floating water stream would.  

Some of those specific traits she inherited from her parents, had a deep effect in the way she behaves and her personality. She is quite socially awkward since she doesn’t spend much time outside the castle in the daytime, so it leads her to not interacting much with most ponies. The motive behind her behavior is that one of her weaknesses she gained from her father makes her body much more fragile against heat than a normal pony. She greatly enjoys painting, and spending most of her time doing just that. In the coldest of nights, the princess does leave the castle, as the weather is just cold enough for her to withstand. She is quite calm and collected, but Nemea does hold her pride of being a strong individual amongst both her kinds. 

 

Relationships:

The closest pony which she holds dear to her heart is Luna, her mother. Their relationship is very warmhearted, and they greatly enjoy each other’s presence. The princess of the night is really proud of her snowflake, as she knows the ponies that once were under her hooves will be fine when Nemea takes her place as the heir to the moon. They have quite a deep bond together, as she is not only her daughter, but also, it’s like she is a incarnation of the spirit she once loved.

The relationship she has with her aunt Celestia, cannot be considered one of the closest, but neither is it cold. They can enjoy each other’s company for quite some time, but just like what happens from time to time to her mother, their opinions might clash. Celestia also has a hard time meeting her niece often, as she has a strict schedule and sleeps soon in the night. Nemea don’t really posses a fixed sleep time, but she is not one to stroll that often around the castle in daytime, leading them both to not meeting so often.

Sirius holds a great respect for Nemea, as she is also a heir to a cosmic element. In the present state of their relationship, the draconequus doesn’t seek out too much for her, but when they meet, is easy to notice his change in behavior, as he becomes more nervous. They technically oppose each other in their very element, but Sirius sees her as someone more powerful, experienced, and older. However in their past, the fluffy noodle was much less shy around her, trying to play with the filly and not being aware that sometimes this could be obnoxious and dangerous. Those playtimes of them, sometimes lead both outside… As the moments gone by, strangely Nemea was tiring much faster than usual, until it came to the point where she fainted. Startled, Sirius ran up to his mother, aunt, and “mother-in-law”, to warn them about Nemea’s state. In this day, they found out her weaknesses against heat.

Nemea has a great relationship with her cousin Harmonia. As they feel more like sisters than cousins. She can always be there to listen to her cousin’s problems, and gladly listens to Harmonia’s rambling about Sirius strange behavior, as she can use a power similar to her mother’s, but with limitations, Nemea is quite capable of learning deep knowledge about some ponies mind, and attitude. She can also be herself near her dear cousin, because different from most other ponies, Harmonia doesn’t fear her power.

Those mares have quite the interesting “friendship”, as Bonnibellé was one of the first ponies to be really impressed with her power, but not fearful at all. They meet for the first time to solve a problem of the past, caused by a weak, perishing Windigo that refused to abandon Canterlot. Much later, into a cold winter night, under the cover of a harsh snowstorm, the princess was drawn to Bellé because of her incessant pledges for help, as the mare was stuck into an icy lake, and the ice had collapsed under her because of her heavy cargo. Since then, Bellé did not felt only the duty to repay the princess as she had saved her, but also started to admire her so much more. Being stuck in the freezing water could prove quite bad for her health, but common cold, rain or snow don’t really bother Bellé, as she feels quite comfortable around Nemea.


*Bonus Round*
 

Appearance Description:  Nemea has quite the tall build, even being taller than Celestia. Different from her cousin Harmonia however, her legs have more muscle and slightly larger bones packed within. Her coat is snowy white, and the tip of her feathers fade into a blackish color. Her wings are those of a snowy owl, so she is deadly silent into her flight. Her mane is dark in color, but as it progresses, it fades into a wavy, floating magic hair, filled by a cloudy and starry texture. Her tail already starts like this and goes all the way.

-Trivia: 

- Because of her magic acting fast and being very strong, when Nemea cries, her tears are fast to freeze… If she cries to much, soon you start hearing “plink plink” all over.

- She does love the rain deeply, but unfortunately she is afraid it might damage her health, so she never came in contact with rain or water for that matter… Using only her magic to clean herself.

- Her magic makes her room slightly chillier than the rest of the castle, and common rooms.

- She may, or may not had found one time a certain noodlecat rolling into the cold floor of her room in the middle of summer.
