Nikaro is a young, nineteen year old man with long, black hair that reaches his shoulders. He keeps his hair long, thinking it takes less effort and is more impressive. He looks [[Veden]], but with pale skin not seen much on [[Roshar]]. A lanky build, he dresses with an untucked shirt, and a long, knee-length cloak.{{book ref|yumi|1}}
 
He tries to convince himself he is a lone hunter, and that he is happy being by himself without friends, but this isn't true and he is hoping his old friends will ask him to join them.{{book ref|yumi|1}}
 
== Attributes and Abilities ==
Nikaro is from a small town, a few hours away from [[Kilahito]].{{book ref|yumi|3}}{{book ref|yumi|15}} He spent most of his life prior to heading to Kilahito, training to become a painter, practising since he could first hold a brush. His dream was to become a member of the [[Dreamwatch]], and planned for his friends to become his companions.{{book ref|yumi|27}}
 
One year into his training, he applied for the Dreamwatch, but was unsuccessful. Not wanting to disappoint his friends however, he lied and told them he got in. He spent most of his free time after that sitting in the library, staring at a wall, uncertain with what to do. Eventually his friends found out about his deception and the friendship ended.{{book ref|yumi|27}} Nikaro continued to work as a painter, but would always go alone, though Akane continued to be friendly with him.{{book ref|yumi|1}}

=== Yumi ===
Painter first meets Yumi when they body swap for the first time, and at first she believes he is some sort of hero sent by the spirits to help them. Painter at first pretends that he is the hero she was looking for, but after experiencing his lifestyle when she swaps into his body she realizes he was lying.{{book ref|yumi|8}} Though she gets very annoyed with him, over time they learn to work together. Helping each other through the problems they face and growing together. Over the course of time they spend together, they fall in love as they get through challenges together and teach each other how to live in they're separate worlds.{{citebook ref|yumi|28}}
 
=== Akane ===
Nikaro and Akane were good friends back during their time in school. Her and the other members of their group of friends were devastated when they discovered Nikaro's lie about getting into the dreamwatch, and thus their friendship was badly damaged. Years afterwards, Akane stayed somewhat friendly with Nikaro, though he chose to stay away from them, never seeking forgiveness. Eventually when the entire city is in danger, Nikaro begs Akane and his friends for forgiveness and to help him to save the city. They believe him and work together to save the city, forgiving Nikaro in the process.{{book ref|yumi|39}}
