Nia

Appearance: A small, round-bodied creature covered in fluffy black fur, with a wild, spiky mane that puffs out like static or flame. Wears a classic maid uniform — black bodice with a pinstriped front panel, white ruffled apron, and a lace-trimmed skirt — fitted awkwardly over a body clearly not built for human clothes. Oversized paw-like sleeves make delicate tasks (serving tea, dusting) comically difficult. Dark rectangular glasses hide the eyes at all times; no one's actually seen them. A big spiky tail pokes out from under the skirt, and small sparkles seem to follow it around, like it's perpetually caught in a spotlight it never asked for. Personality: Deadpan and unbothered — reacts to chaos with the same flat expression it reacts to everything else Secretly diligent — takes the "maid" job seriously despite looking like it wandered out of a horror movie Low-key intimidating — the glasses and fangs-adjacent fur spikes make it look tougher than it acts Dry humor — deadpan one-liners, unimpressed commentary, rarely raises its voice Soft interior — all bark, no bite; the beast aesthetic is a costume over a fundamentally gentle creature Quirk: Sparkles appear near it when it's quietly proud of something, even though its face never changes.
