Nem is a gentle giant who thinks through every word through before saying it. She speaks little, but listens to everything, and what she does say often shows wisdom beyond her few years. Following the typical characteristics of an earth dragon, she is the epitome of patience, with a near photographic memory and an endless fascination with the past. She tends to sit statue-sit while she's thinking, and it's not uncommon for her to drift away entirely and get lost in thought.

She’s developed something of a sixth sense for danger due to watching out for her familiar (turkeys are quite edible, after all), so despite being easily distracted she’s difficult to sneak up on. Nem is knowledgeable on rocks, sediments and soils, as well as random bits of information from books, but isn’t well learned in practical knowledge- most of her perceived wisdom comes from her meditative, unbiased way of reading situations. She knows how to fight, but relies more on her natural durability and strength than skill, because she wasn’t interested in taking more than the bare minimum of combat lessons.

Familar: Lewis, a woodland Turkey; affectionate towards Nem but aggressive towards any other dragons that approach him. Size differences do not seem to matter to him. His actual capability in a fight may be questionable, but Nem has complete faith in him, and that counts for something.
