Personality[]
History[]
Nightbane the demon was originally just a skeleton in the Abyss of Darkness. The Goddess of Desire noticed that he was particularly evil compared to the others and took an interest in him. She granted him a full body, and also the name Nightbane. Since then, he became a very loyal follower of hers. [1]
After the Goddess of Desire was failed in seducing Leonid, Nightbane suggested that he would create an ultimate puppet of evilness and desire for her to help her in conquering the world. Hence, he started to collect all the viciousness and lust in the world and finally made them into one puppet. However, the end product was actually an extremely pure, innocent and kind doll. Nightbane was so angry that he broke it and threw it into Starhaven, where superficial physical beauty ranks above everything. Hence, Ashley was born.[2]
However, he and the Goddess of Desire had not abandoned Ashley completely. They kept an eye on her and finally on the day of the Starheaven Swan Tournament, he descended when Ashley set a fire on the stage. He made a pact with Ashley, giving her irresistible beauty in exchange for her soul and that her desire would never be satisfied.
After he transformed Ashley into Lilith with the power of the Goddess, he assisted her in becoming the Queen of Ninir and stayed by her side as her butler. When the reelection approached, he stole the Holy Crystal from Pigeon Kingdom and the manuscripts of Leonid from Nikki and Loen. With Lilith, the three of them together formed the key to open the Abyss. The Goddess of Desire finally was able to enter Miraland as herself, while possessing the body of Lilith. With the help of Leonid, her friends and the player, Nikki was able to defeat the Goddess. The Abyss was closed again. The Goddess was trapped there again and Nightbane disappeared from Miraland. [3]
In Chapter 6, Nightbane disguises himself as Benjamin, the person in charge on the hotel side of the auction.[4]
