This page serves as a source of information regarding Nihil as is applicable to RuneScape Roleplay, everyone is invited to add to this information.

Nex

Nex, a unique nihil granted sentience by Zaros.

Brief History

The nihil are peculiar race that was created by Zaros in an attempt to learn of genetics, which was a result of his promise to the Ilujanka that he would cure their sterility and infertility. After their creation, Zaros had only one accomplishment from the project: Nex, whom he gave sentience and took with him back to Gielinor. He abanoned the other Nihil on Freneskae, where they continue to survive to this day.

Nex herself was feared throughout the God Wars, not just because of her ability to decimate armies on her own, but also as living example of Zaros's power. Unable to be killed, Nex was sealed inside the God Wars Dungeon not once, but three times. Once by Saradominists in the early third age, again by the united forces of each of other gods' generals, and a third time by Saradomin forcibly teleporting her there himself after the Assassination of Guthix.

Accepted Lore

  • Nihil come in four known types based off the creatures they were created from (Nex was unique):
    • Ice Nihils (Icyene)
    • Smoke Nihils (Aviansie)
    • Blood Nihils (Vampyres)
    • Shadow Nihils (Demons)
  • Nihil adapted to Freneskae quite well after Zaros's abandonment; intelligent and predatory, the nihil learned how to hunt Muspah and use energy from their kills to make more of themselves (this is their method of reproduction).
  • With the right ingredients, nihil can be summoned. However, these are only available on Freneskae after the Mahjarrat had left, and thus, should not be obtainable in normal Public Roleplay situations.
  • Nihil are deadly combatants, able to devestate enemies with their powerful element based abilities, and are capable of bull-rushing targets to inflict massive damage. While fearsome on their own, they can prove fatal when attacking in groups.
    • Being able to successfully hunt Muspah, creatures that even Mahjarrat hold with some degree of fear, the nihil are not to be underestimated.
    • Nihil are quite agile, able to quickly run in and out of danger.

Debated Lore

  • Nex has ways of returning if vanquished, as stated by the nature spirit that guards her temple in the God Wars Dungeon. It is unlcear if lesser nihil can do so.
    • Nex grows more powerful as she spreads destruction and death, it is also unclear if lesser nihil have the same advantage.

Other Information

  • Nihil only seem to exist in a feminine shape, no males have been seen. This may play a part in their unique reproduction, but Mahjarrat reproduce in a similar manner (using divine energy), and is likely just a result of Zaros's creation of the nihil (possibly neglecting to create males).

Trivia

  • Their second name, nihil, means "nothing" in latin, Zaros granted them this name as they were a failure to him compared to his grandesque goal of freeing the Ilujanka of their infertility.
