	Nikolas is a [[Vistana]] and is a leader of the [[Wanderers]]. ~~He has cared~~ for [[Sabak (Magda's Hound)]].
			Nikolas is a [[Vistana]] of the [[Equaar Tribe]] and is a leader of the [[Wanderers]]. Showing an uncanny expertise with the care and training of [[animal]]s from an early age, Nikolas bore the responsibility for the care of [[Sabak (Magda's Hound)]]. Nikolas has an unusually [[cheerful]] and [[compassionate]] nature, even towards [[giorgio]] such as [[Nabon]]. This has historically put him at odds with [[Piotr]], a fellow Wanderer, but their shared past has rendered the latter highly respectful of the former.<ref>[[Heroes of Light]] p. 96-100</ref>

			Nikolas was first briefly mentioned in [[Spectre of the Black Rose]] as one of the three surviving members of the Wanderers. He was further fleshed out in [[Heroes of Light]].

			==History==
			Born in [[732 BC]]<ref>HoL p. 96; Inza (born 736 BC, the same night Duke Gundar died), is "four years his junior."</ref>, Nikolas is a second generation Wanderer, his parents among the earliest to join the patchwork clan formed by [[Magda Kulchevich]] ten years prior. His parents were [[murdered]] by [[Duke Gundar]] or his minions when Nikolas was very young, leaving the boy to be raised by the collective of the Wanderer adults.

			Nikolas spent most of his childhood close to [[Inza]] in physical proximity but not emotional attachment. Aided by Piotr, Inza mocked and tormented Nikolas, even surreptitiously kidnapping, torturing, and killing his trained [[pet]]s.

			In [[746 BC]], Inza watched with rapture as a [[bigoted]] mob of [[miner]]s at the [[Veidrava Salt Mines]] nearly beat Nikolas to death. Hoping to share a few laughs, Inza shared this information with Piotr, but he lacked the malice to take any humor in it. Piotr notified [[Alexi]] of Nikolas' location but not he came by this discovery. Inza quickly turned the situation to her advantage, telling Magda that Piotr, not her, had let the mob assault Nikolas. [[Bratu]] backed up her lie. However, Nikolaus intervened and pleaded for mercy on Nikolaus' behalf, thereby preventing his [[exile]]. From that day, Piotr was a [[loyal]] friend to Nikolaus instead of Inza.

			In [[752 BC]], the majority of the Wanderers were [[killed]] in successive attacks planned by Inza in order to gain the protection of [[Lord Soth]]. Nikolaus was one of the four surviving Wanderers (the others being Piotr, Alexi, and Inza) to make it through the final attack of [[Invidian]] [[ogre]] [[mercenaries]].<ref name="Spectre of the Black Rose p. 224">[[Spectre of the Black Rose]] p. 224</ref> After the [[Hour of Screaming Shadows]] occurred, the Wanderers joined with [[Nabon]], a [[stone giant]], to confront Inza at the [[ruins]] of [[Nedragaard Keep]]. However, she jumped into [[the Great Chasm]] to escape [[punishment]], only to unwittingly become shrouded in [[darkness]]. Though Inza had escaped the punishment of her former kin temporarily<ref>SotBR p. 303-304</ref>, she faced the punishment of [[the Dark Powers]], becoming [[darklord]] of Sithicus.<ref name="Gaz IV p. 157">[[Gazetteer IV]] p. 157</ref>
