|Extra1=
|Desc=A young woman easily identified with blue-white hair and pale white skin. Her eyes reflecting life around them in their blue-tinted pearl gleam. The world seems to change when she's around, taking on a dreamlike quality. Fog comes and goes with a sweep of her hand, people and places long since gone seem to reappear in her presence, so as such it's no surprise that the long wisps of her dress and her almost shoulder-length hair always seem to move on their own as if caught in a breeze. She moves silently when she walks, barely making a sound. But then the way noises seem to quiet in her presence makes it hard to decide if this is intention or merely a side effect...
 
While on the Council of Twisted she wore long dark blue robes which hid her feet and had wide sleeves that hung past her hands. Since then her body seems to have regressed slightly and now her robes hang loosely off her frame making the girl struggle to keep them on comfortably. To combat this she exchanged her robes for a poofy blue dress with lace trim and shoulder straps that tie behind her neck in a bow. From time to time she still stubbornly tries to wear her robes even though she's starting to look comically small in them. Typically she roams around barefoot, something that wasn't really apparent until she had to take off her robes. This does nothing to help with the impression that she's gotten younger.
|Extra2='''Flaws:'''<br />Having spent most of her existence sealed inside of a pocket dimension with only people who's memory she erased for company, Nancy's social skills and education are severely stunted. (for example, she can only read by sounding letters out loud) She often finds herself trying to solve problems she is too inexperienced to deal with but stubbornly tries to "fix" no matter the consequences. This has repeatedly put her in situations where she has made things worse simply because she cannot accept them for how they are; such as when she and [[Gegoshi]] released [[Guarlesia]] from [[Concordance|Concordance's]] control and nearly destroyed Twisted as a result.

|Skills=During her exile, Nancy learned to harness her abilities to a level where she could pull people and places to her location by conscious thought. This ability lets her act as an architect, able to reshape Twisted according to the whim of the Council, and once it was disbanded the whim of Senor Diablo. Her own self-imposed fear of going back to the pocket dimension that served as her prison kept her from rebelling. 

Thus far that fear has kept her from doing any harm to the people or places currently on Twisted without direct orders. As such, the only manifestation of her powers she allows people to see is the ability to teleport in what appears to everyone else as moving through fog, and the constant movement of her hair and clothing even when no wind is present.

After overexerting herself the unfelt wind that seems to always keep her hair and clothes moving slows to a crawl. This has so far occurred twice. Once where she used her powers to transport a small group of people and furniture to another world to save a room full of people, and again while trying to stop [[Guarlesia|a being]] she foolishly helped resurrect after they started murdering those around her. 
|Stats=
* PHYSICAL ABILITY:  2 (She's never had to do anything more than walk around her whole life)
* KNOWLEDGE: 3 (She's never had any formal or informal schooling)
* MAGICAL KNOWLEDGE: 10 (Despite her frail form and lack of schooling, she's lived enough lifetimes in her pocket dimension to know the very limits of her abilities... or the lack there of. The universe is her playground, but she's too scared to take advantage of it.)
* SUPERHUMAN ABILITY: 0 (Aside from her magical powers she has no other abilities to speak of)

Threat Level: 3.75

|Background=
The daughter of an esteemed Council member and inventor, Nancy was born with a highly unusual gift. Much like the nature of Twisted itself, she had the innate ability to pull people or places and anchor them to wherever she happened to be, seemingly at a whim. Fearful that her abilities would endanger the whole of Twisted, [[:Category:Twisted_Council|the Council]] decided to banish Nancy to a pocket dimension where she would live out the rest of her life alone. Little did she know at the time, but fear of another child possibly having the same powers caused the same fate to befall her twin brother [[Seth]] as well. 

For this child, her exile was literally an eternity. She was banished to a place where time had no meaning, giving her ample opportunity to learn how to use her powers, but as she quickly discovered... no one could leave the pocket dimension, not even people she pulled into it from random worlds to keep her company. Soon she'd pulled enough people and places in with her that she'd created a small town and a [[Peaceful_Glade_Cemetery|massive cemetery]] - as again, time had no meaning here. People brought in by her powers aged quickly, compounding her grief for her lost family and shame of things beyond her control with the horrible dwelling guilt of watching these people grow old and die around her, always leaving her alone again.

Eventually the Council members sent one of their number to collect her, offering her an escape from this eternal nightmare in exchange for her enslavement to the Council as one of its members. Eager to leave, she agreed to their terms and as soon as was able, the newly appointed councilwoman pulled the contents of the world she'd created onto Twisted, binding it as the area surrounding what is now known as [[Zeku-Kari Beach]]. She even cleared away the memory of [[Airashisa]], the last person she'd brought in out of desperation, so that she could lead a life without memories of Nancy or the world she'd created.<ref>[[2007-06-05_(PreU)_Saotome_meets_another_rival|Saotome Meets Another Rival]]</ref>

During [[Senor Diablo|Señor Diablo]]'s takeover of the Council and the creation of the 'Unified Twisted', she learned the fate of her forgotten brother. Upon releasing him, they discovered that his confinement had taken its toll on his mind and all of his memories of his old life were gone... replaced with a fictional life he'd created for himself. Nancy never told him the truth, leaving him to go on with his life without the trauma that remembering his past would cause. Even in a world full of people, once again she was alone...

While it has been hinted at in many scenes it was recently made obvious that Nancy was not given a very good education, or that she's lost large chunks of her experience due to the insane length of time she was imprisoned. Nancy cannot operate complex devices, often shutting them out completely rather than trying to learn. Also, while she randomly makes comments about books she's read<ref>[[2015-09-20_(PostU)_Searching_for_Lost_Friends_(part_V)|Searching for Lost Friends (part V)]]</ref> or alluding to characters from them her reading skills are remarkably poor. Often she has to sound out words letter by letter.<ref>[[2016-01-02_(PostU)_Books_and_Knowledge|Books and Knowledge]]</ref> Her wealth of book knowledge simply being a bi-product of the vast amount of time she's had on her hands. 
 
After meeting with the current guardian of time, [[Caliga|Caliga Satanas]], it was revealed that her abilities where somehow causing her body to get younger the more she used her powers.<ref>[[2019-08-30_-_Pier_to_Peer|Pier to Peer]]</ref> This was why she looked younger when she was released from her prison than she did when she was first placed in it and why she looked dramatically younger than her brother despite being the older sibling (even if only by a few minutes). Following an exhausting series of events that took the two of them across worlds and dimensions they eventually sought out the imprisoned Advent of Light, [[Crux|Crux Caedon]]. For very specific reasons this scene has been completely redacted, although pieces of that encounter might appear in logs going forwards. 

During that encounter it was discovered that her body had built an immunity to the ambient "time" carried by people and places. This resulted in her aging process halting while she was alone and resuming (albeit in reverse because of her powers) around other people. A deal of some kind was struck and Nancy was returned to Twisted with her reversed aging stopped. After a long deliberation on the information provided to her by Crux, Nancy then decided to voluntarily go back to the pocket dimension that was her prison. From this point her whereabouts are currently unknown.
