History[]
Nym Viper is a Pure-Blood witch. Her family consists of Pure-Bloods, her parents are Aldo Viper an Italian wizard from the Viper family and Fang Cai, a Chinese witch from the Fang family. Aldo met his wife Cai while she was on a tour of Rome. They were only 22.
As a child Nym attended a Muggle school until she began attending Hogwarts, she knows a great deal about both worlds. She knew better than to try and use magic, to impress the Muggle children, and she knew better than to react when the magical children made fun of her for going to the Muggle school.
Nym is a cherished only child, she has no brothers, and no sister, nor does she have substitutes. To her parents she is a prodigy, she began speaking properly when she was approximately 11 months old. Her parents were adamant very early on that she learn as much as possible, and be physically active. Reading, and comprehending an impressive amount of a dictionary or encyclopedia for her age by the time she was 11, Nym is gifted. Not in the traditional sense. She has the ability to understand the basics of, and border on the point of excelling at anything she does. She has always dreamed of becoming a Healer, even though she has always entertained the idea of hurting people. In self-defense only. It is not entirely unreasonable to her that someone who knows how inflict pain, quite well, would also know the best methods to reverse, and cease pain entirely. She wants to learn about Neurobiology, she cannot be swayed from her belief that neurology second to healing will make her the very best of those able to help people when they are in need.
She dreams of being Professor Viper one day, she never thought of which subject she would actually teach, but she thinks it has a nice ring to it.
After her Sixth year Nym left Hogwarts and London behind. Shortly after having completed her N.E.W.T.s a year early she returned to Italy allowing her parents to begin the Muggle process of securing Nym's Chinese citizenship. She was moved to Tuvas Village in Kanas, Xinjiang, China where she lived with her mother's parents. Nym learned Traditional Chinese Medicine from her grandmother. She could have learned it from her mother, but her grandmother claimed Cai had lost her touch after twenty years. There were many, many arguments between Nym's mother Cai and her mother Meiling. The arguments were in Chinese which Nym had trouble understanding, her mother and grandmother were speaking a different dialect. One that Nym was able to fully comprehend, but has not yet learned to speak. All the fighting, the entire time, was about Cai, and Aldo. Nym's grandparents loved her from the moment they saw her, they were angry with her mother Cai for throwing away her life, and for waiting seventeen years to let them meet their granddaughter.
Nym has returned from China as recently as March of 2025, she was not looking to move to the UK until she realized how much she missed it. She plans to continue her training as a Healer under those employed at St. Mungo's or working with the Healers at Hogwarts.

She was on a tour of Rome when she met and fell in love with Aldo, he was taken by her beauty and the fact the she is not only incredibly quick witted and bold, but that she was also fierce and very loving. Cai was only in Rome to further her education, the more she learned about Aldo the less important everything else seemed. Aldo Viper Aldo like much of his family before him, had been home schooled by the elders members in the Viper family. He was doing what he was best at, which was exploring Rome when he saw Cai.

Personality[]
Nym is very competitive, but she is still a good sport. She is very witty, sarcastic, a little wild. She is fun when she is with her friends, but she can be serious when the situation calls for it. She is a great listener, and constantly attempts to analyze people's reactions or reasoning within seconds of meeting or seeing them. She is a very good liar, but she chooses not to do so unless it is of absolute necessity. You can't hide anything from her or lie to her only because she will dig and snoop or question and pester until she finds the truth. Nym is an amazing friend, don't make her mad or she will be forced to humiliate you as she is capable of violent outbursts when she feels threatened.
- Nym headbutt a boy in the nose for putting the moves on her. She claims it was an accident, when in reality it was a natural reaction to her being touched without warning.
- She did also date said boy for the remainder of the school year.
