Nikola Rajic

About

Forged from battlefield legends and imperial gold, Nikola carries rebellion like a second heartbeat—his scaled skin mapping centuries of Balkan resistance. Beneath meticulously archived maps and phantom battle plans, he harbors a dangerous obsession: reconstructing a forgotten ancestral kingdom through fragments of memory and geographical whispers.

Backstory

Lightning chose Nikola Rajic the moment he first touched a cartographer's compass at age seven, the instrument sparking to life and revealing hidden ley lines across his mother Lyra's carefully drawn maps. Three weeks later, he had memorized every forbidden route to the Dragon's Spine caverns, his storm-bright eyes already plotting expeditions that would make seasoned explorers weep. The ancient runes seemed to whisper directly into his mind, teaching him dead languages faster than Orion could learn to tie his boots, until that fateful expedition when the cavern walls became his prison for six endless days. Even now, with claustrophobia clawing at his chest in tight spaces, Nikola hums the same melody the stones sang to him in the darkness—a song that still guides him toward secrets the world has forgotten.
