Nihachu/SMP


 * ''This page is about the character from the Dream SMP. For the streamer who plays this character, see Nihachu.

""I'm not going to blame it on other people again because I always did that! I always blamed YOUR mistakes and YOUR betrayal and YOU hurting me on other people. And look where it got me...look where it got me! It got me nowhere!""

Nihachu, more commonly referred to as Niki, is the nineteenth member of the Dream SMP, joining on August 6, 2020. She is a member of the Syndicate and a former loyal member of L'Manberg.

She was a citizen of L'Manberg during the presidency of Wilbur Soot, but during the Manberg Rebellion, she spoke out strongly against the Jschlatt Administration, leading to her banishment and subsequent joining of Pogtopia at the culmination of the Manberg Festival. She fought alongside the Pogtopians during the retaking of L'Manberg, and afterwards was appointed as the Secretary of Treasury by the new President, Tubbo. She expressed tentative sympathy for Tommy during his exile, although she still thought that he was responsible for the consequences of his own actions, and would become frustrated by his apparent destruction of the Community House.

She and Fundy later left to form Dry Waters, and Niki grew more detached from L'Manberg, ultimately turning against her former nation and burning down the L'Mantree during the Doomsday War. She has since displayed resentment towards Tommy due to all of the conflict he has caused in the past, and collaborated with Jack Manifold in an attempt to kill him before he could start any more turmoil. She was also a L'Manberg traitor during Doomsday alongside Fundy.

Niki has since joined the Syndicate, and committed to Anarchist ideals. As a member of the Syndicate, Niki participated in operations including scouting out Snowchester to verify it's non-governmental status and facilitating the escape of Dream from Pandora's Vault.

Physiology
Niki is a human with light skin, long-lashed brown eyes, and shoulder-length blonde hair which dyes pink. She has many casual outfits, but the one she currently uses is a gray jacket over a black crop top, camo-patterned shorts, and black boots. During peacetime and while expanding her horizons with dates and more builds, she often wore a striped red, orange, cream, and blue sweater, long black pants with a belt, and blue shoes.

As an outcast from Manberg and a member of Pogtopia, she sported an outfit similar to Wilbur's in atmosphere - a beige shirt with short black sleeves and a hood, long black jeans with straps (presumably to hold weapons), and buckled brown shoes. She also kept her hair tied back.

Her L'Manberg uniform was different from that of the founders, as she joined after the initial war for independence, but it was similar in the fashion of being a blue suit with gold patterns and a sash across the middle, and in the fact that it included a black-and-white tricorn hat.

She also had a business suit worn only when needed, which appeared to be a typical tuxedo with the addition of the tricorn hat, and a temporary Christmas outfit where she sported a checkered sweater, long leggings, and a Santa hat.

Her villain outfit, ironically is quite similar to her outcast one, with her owning some new peach pink hair, brown boots, and a cream white shirt, as well as Wilbur's old coat and cloak that he wore back in his own spiral. She now sports some dark blue eyes instead of her usual light brown eyes. She tied her hair back once again and her skin tone has darkened by a little. She also wears some black jeans, a brown belt, and a golden necklace around her neck, all of which is from her outcast era.

Niki's new casual skin, has light pink hair with cat ears. She also sports a black jumper with a grey patterned stripe and grey trousers. She has also worn variations of her causal skin; for Pride Month the grey stripe was changed to the Bi Flag, during a black and white stream she wore a colour drained version of the outfit and has worn 3D glasses in tribute of The Gays, The Girls and Jack Manifold (Her MCC Team).

Niki (the out of character content creator) has also stated that no matter what skin she puts on, her character is still wearing Wilbur's cloak and coat.

Independence/Election Arc
During her early days on the server, Niki was very generous and thoughtful. She often gifted people items, specializing particularly in handcrafted cakes from her bakery. Upon first glance, she was easy to dismiss as a stereotypical quiet girl, as she tended to steer clear of avoidable conflict and was always polite and friendly with everyone she came across, but in actuality, there was far more to her than met the eye.

While she did often keep to herself, she was by no means a pushover. She was independent, resilient, and very strong-willed, believing firmly in her morals and having no qualms with standing up to and speaking out against those she saw as enemies. When Sapnap killed her pet fox, Fungi, she was fierce not in exacting revenge, but rather securing an apology from him, and ensuring that it would not happen again.

When Jschlatt took charge of L'Manberg, she was very vocal with her disapproval, heedless of the danger that she was putting herself in, and later pledged her full loyalty to Tommy and Tubbo in order to retake the country. A lot of the time, she felt overlooked and unnoticed by everyone, but kept this hidden, leading to her rising feelings of internal resentment. Although not intrusive, she has always been very observant and curious, and watches things that intrigue her until they are out of sight.

Post-Green Festival
After seeing L'Manberg and the people tied to it go through so much, Niki's character has changed considerably.

She still stays true to herself and to her own beliefs, and that has not changed, but she no longer shows empathy for the people she blames for the downfall (namely Tommy, who seemingly committed grave wrongs and faced zero punishment in her eyes).

She feels like the original ideals of L'Manberg have been warped beyond the point of repair, and finally agrees with the prior assessment made by both Eret and Wilbur - that the nation was never meant to be. She's been unintentionally betrayed enough times that she no longer cares about breaking people's trust herself, and she has grown tired of giving everyone second chances and the benefit of the doubt.

All of her negative resentments have finally begun to spill, resulting in a harsh change in her former beliefs of forgiveness over revenge. She now actively seeks reparations from the person she thinks wronged her, and is desperate to be recognized for herself for once in her life. In these pursuits, she has even been partnering with Techno's Syndicate, despite her former allegiance against him.

Before joining the Syndicate
After working with Jack for a long while, Niki had a change of heart. She realized that her anger at Tommy was only because of the built up emotions of other events. Such as her partner, Puffy, not speaking to her and Wilbur dying at the hands of Philza. These things led her to direct the anger at an easy target - Tommy.

Despite these realizations, Niki still wishes to be recognized for what she had done for everyone. She still believes that the old members of L'Manberg do not appreciate what she had sacrificed and done for them. Wishing to find people who will understand and care for her, Niki joins her old enemy - Technoblade. Her ideals change to anarchist ones, but she also wishes to rekindle her old L'Manberg habits.

Wilbur has said that Niki's D&D alignment is neutral good.

"Niki is neutral good. She follows her own opinions and finds strength in her beliefs. She is very verbal in her values and tends to always lean towards what is right; friendship and the belief of a free nation."

Flaws
Niki has a habit of burying her real emotions to the point of snapping, which have left her vulnerable to spiralling into negativity. She is prone to holding grudges against others, and misdirecting her anger due to her biased perception of events. Niki is willing to do absolutely anything to bring her desires to fruition.

First days
Niki joined The Dream SMP during the first interwar period between The L'Manberg War of Independence and the L'Manberg Elections. She was picked up from spawn by TommyInnit and Wilbur Soot, who became her first friends on the server and led her to L'Manberg. Tommy continuously killed her over and over, but the two became friends anyway. There, she had her first interactions with the other L'Manberg members as well as with Eret. Wilbur and Tommy painted Eret as a murderous traitor, still angry with them for their betrayal in the previous war, which was a far cry from what Niki thought of them. She and Eret ended up becoming good friends as well, and Niki created L'Manberg's flag as a symbol of pride for her country. Fundy joined their little posse before too long, and Fundy gave a pet fox to Niki, which she named Fungi, wanting its name to sound like his. She also built a bakery in order to make the most of her talents and to have an easier time making gifts for everyone.

Pet War
On August 25, Fungi was accidentally killed by Sapnap. There was a brief period of tension over this, which eventually escalated into the first Pet War. Things eventually settled into uneasy peace, but Niki was still upset, as Fungi's grave had been destroyed during the fighting. Tommy tried to reason with her but he got too intimidated by her. Afterwards, she and Fundy found a new pet, a bee which they named Beelloon. They took it to a cave across a lake from L'Manberg and left it there with wool and flowers so that it would stay safe. Beelloon later escaped from the cave during Fundy's attempt to relocate it, but its unknown whether or not Niki is aware of this.

Election
Niki and Fundy formed the party of Coconut2020 during the L'Manberg Presidential Debate. In the end, the party was the least popular among viewers, only gaining 9% of the votes. The party was accused of voter fraud, but the blame was pinned on Fundy since he was the only programmer of the group. Their campaign had mostly been a last-minute joke anyways, though, so they were not at all surprised or upset by the outcome.

When Jschlatt won via a coalition government with Quackity, however, his first act as self-appointed "Emperor" was to exile Wilbur and Tommy from L'Manberg. Niki was upset and appalled, recognizing the tyrannical act for what it was, and she refused to assist in tearing down the walls. She and Eret watched in dismay as Fundy burned the flag of L'Manberg that Niki had worked hard to make, declaring it the end of an era. Niki refused to give up on L'Manberg, however, and instead began working with her own group of allies with the aim of overthrowing Schlatt.

Manberg Rebellion
During the Manberg Rebellion, Niki was the most vocal member when it came to opposing Schlatt.

Quackity went to confront Niki but instead asked to hear her side, and see if he could do anything about it. She pointed out that Schlatt didn't respect Quackity, and that she was horrified about what they did to L'Manberg. Niki believed that Schlatt didn't care what he took, just that he took it, and that he would take everything they had. Quackity wanted to help her, but began messing around and messaging Schlatt not to come into the building with them, prompting Niki to punch him, and not knowing he was only on half a heart, killing him. This meant Schlatt and Quackity came after her. She escaped up to Jack Manifold's balcony, where Schlatt trapped her with iron bars. He told her that there was no more L'Manberg, and that she was his new countries first ever prisoner. Quackity, realizing that he'd done the wrong thing, helped Niki escape, and pretended like she did it herself, with Eret backing him up.

Niki is walking to her bakery when Schlatt arrived and began mocking her about it being Tax Day. This was because Schlatt had raised taxes on all women in L'Manberg, of which she was the only one. Despite trying to get enough money, it was no use and they began to raid all of her stuff. Niki left the newly-renamed 'Manberg', moving instead into Tommy's holiday home. Whilst taking items to bring with her, she discovered that they were looking for her still, Alyssa found her but agreed to not tell them anything. Wilbur and Tommy turned up to save her from the taxing, but they arrived to late and ended up arguing with Schlatt. Niki asked to join Pogtopia with Wilbur, but he denied her offer saying that they were to busy for new members. Despite understanding his idea, Niki felt devastated that she wasn't allowed to help her friends or even know where their base was.

Whilst sneaking back to her bakery for supplies, Niki noticed Fundy had just finished a Manberg Flag. For revenge on what he did to her flag, she burnt it down before being killed herself, Fundy ended up rebuilding the flag differently much to her disgust. After Schlatt announced the Manberg Festival, Niki and Eret made plans to try and assassinate Schlatt with all of Niki's TNT, but they never came into fruition.

Whilst living out in Tommy's Holiday Home, Niki was allowed back into Manberg whenever she wanted due to leaving on her own accord not being exiled. Niki also began looking after her Tommy's pet cow who lived there, Henry. She also started writing letters to an unknown person who she only ever referred to as 'friend', she told them about everything that had happened and that she didn't think that people would live through it. Niki also asked them to come and help her, but it is unknown if they ever came.

War of the Burning Eiffel Tower
When Henry was accidentally slain by Sapnap, Niki expressed sympathy for Tommy and helped him build a grave for his cow, as she had experienced something similar with Fungi. She helped him come up with the idea to grief Sapnap's Eiffel Tower for revenge and griefed it with him. She also pushed a llama off the Eiffel Tower where it hung from it's leash and suffocated.

She also helped him fight off Ant, Bad and Skeppy but fell off the train tracks and missed most of the fight whilst running back from the Holiday Home. When Sapnap joined the fighting, she was unarmed and unprotected but still tried to kill him when he ate Henry's remains infront of her. She was killed, and returned to the battle wearing full armor.

After being temporarily captured by Sapnap, Skeppy, BadBoyHalo, and Antfrost, she was used as a hostage. Tommy offered to show Sapnap his kidnapped fish in exchange for her release. Her captors were swayed by this and left her trapped with only Antfrost to protect her. Niki dug herself out of the hole they'd trapped her in, but was unarmed and couldn't get past Antfrost. She asked to negotiate, and Ant remembered the time she had given him free food from her bakery. Niki agreed to help him with his zoo if he let her escape. Tommy shouted for her to run, which she did and ended up running down the Prime Path. However, Ant chased her and told Sapnap he was going to kill her which led to her yelling at him that they had a deal. Sapnap immediately grew suspicious of Ant, who said that he was killing her again. Realizing he was lying to cover up her escape, Niki thanked him and ran to safety whilst Ant lied and said he lost her.

Whilst hiding nearby, Niki witnessed the Battle of the Lake and tried to help Tommy, Technoblade and Dream but was accidentally killed in the confusion by Techno.

Manberg Festival
When Niki arrived for the festival, she tried to seem natural - partying with the others and joining in with the games. One of the games was made by Fundy as was a glass box filled with water he'd place you in and then whoever stayed under longest without drowning won. When Niki climbed in the top was covered and she couldn't escape, despite screaming at them she was about to drown they merely laughed at her as she drowned in front of them.

During Schlatt's welcoming speech Niki shook her head and refused to cheer for him, she also made thinly disguised remarks about L'Manberg and how it was better then Manberg. Throughout the party, she grew more frustrated and tried to make Schlatt drunk enough so he would tell her and Technoblade state secrets. When it failed, she went to the boxing match with the others and watched everyone fight it all out, much to her disgust. Deciding to take a break she walked to the nearest ender chest where she put her sword. Looking up, she saw Tommy standing opposite her and immediately returned to the boxing, as if she saw nothing.

During Tubbo's speech, she was annoyed at everything he said in favor of Schlatt. Then, he was revealed as a traitor by Schlatt and Quackity and Niki cried out in his defence. She attempted to get Technoblade to stop by screaming from the crowd, but was silenced as he executed Tubbo. She herself was then caught in the crossfire and returned to find Wilbur fighting with Tommy. She tried to speak to him, but was forced to return back to the podium for Schlatt's second speech.

She was horrified and disgusted by his actions and began berating him before the crowd. In response, Schlatt declared her banished and ordered for her to be executed as well. She was saved by Wilbur, who had been present and in hiding, and after Schlatt had been distracted, Niki made a run for it. She was unarmed after losing everything in the fighting and was chased by an equally badly equipped Punz. Despite holding out for a long time, Punz killed her (non-canon).

Wilbur and Tommy invited her to live with them in Pogtopia along with Tubbo and Technoblade. Once there, Tommy and Tubbo informed her of Wilbur's plot to destroy all of Manberg with TNT, which frightened and angered her. She formed a small sub-faction with them in which they agreed to retake L’Manberg and keep it safe by any means necessary. The three of them agreed to stick together no matter what.

Secret city & preparation
As events compiled leading up to the final showdown between Pogtopia and Manberg, Niki began grinding for gear along with many of the others. She was not present when Quackity turned on Schlatt and joined Pogtopia, but she was willing to trust him anyways, and invited him to her birthday party. The party was somewhat spoiled when Wilbur threatened to detonate his TNT and destroy Manberg in the middle of it, but he was successfully persuaded to hold off just a bit longer.

Niki lived out in Pogtopia, she spent most of her time being trained by Technoblade - even beating him and uncanonically killing one in combat.

Shortly before the assigned date of the confrontation, Niki started working on digging out a secret underground city. It was intended to be used by refugees and those who wished to live in peace, or potentially as a last resort if the war went badly. She shared her secret with no one but Karl, and while Karl would be fighting on Manberg's side, he promised not to tell anyone about it.

When Fundy came to Pogtopia and proved that he'd been on their side all along with his diary, Niki was at first skeptical as he previously hadn't seemed to share in her views at all with taking down Schlatt but he assured her it was part of the act, although she was still skeptical.

After Dream told everyone that there was a traitor in Pogtopia, Niki was hurt that she was the prime suspect of many of her allies, while she herself felt like she could trust all of them.

Rutabagville
Karl and Niki also started a small nation of their own, Rutabagville, and even though Karl and Sapnap officially ran it, she was considered a co-leader by them. Niki enjoyed Rutabagville and even considered leaving Pogtopia to live their in peace - however a few weeks later, she'd find out that Rutabagville was no longer a free nation. Karl sold it out to Schlatt for protection, and hid it from her due to her known ties to Pogtopia. Niki got angry at all of them and abandoned Rutabagville, but even still agreed to stay friends no matter the outcome of the war.

Manberg vs Pogtopia War
Niki, Fundy, Eret and others met at the end of the docks to discuss the upcoming war later that day. Niki was extremely upset, feeling Wilbur had gone too far and stated she had joined L'Manberg and supported this war because of her best friend, (Wilbur). Now Wilbur was gone she felt like she had no reason to continue in this war, however she also felt obliged to fight because of the situation. After more debating, Niki courageously protected Eret and stated he wouldn't betray them again.

On the day of the war, Niki donned the netherite armor that she had been working for and readied herself for combat. Upon returning one last time to Pogtopia to go over plans, she found another pet fox that had been left to her by Antfrost as a peace offering, which she named Mushroom, but she left it behind to avoid putting it in harm's way. When Technoblade led everyone to his own secret bunker, she was amazed by all of the loot he had amassed and got enchantments for the first time since she'd joined the server.

During the actual fighting, she mostly stuck with her close friends and was able to snipe down a few of her enemies. Niki also positive throughout the fighting although she expressed concern for Wilbur due to his lack of armor and "loose canon" mentality. She witnessed Schlatt's death in the Camarvan and was delighted upon their apparent victory, congratulating Tubbo on becoming the new president of the restored L'Manberg.

Whilst taking down Manberg decorations to make way for the return for L'Manberg, Niki accidentally destroyed a brick of the building revealing that it had been filled with TNT. She looked back on the others, blissfully unaware of the TNT, instead of warning her friends she replaced the brick and continued taking the decorations down.

She was confused and blindsided when Technoblade turned on them, having been unaware of his anarchist ideals, and was devastated when Wilbur set off his explosives, destroying the majority of central L'Manberg. She nearly lost heart in the face of the destruction and the withers Techno had summoned, but was encouraged by Tommy to keep fighting, because "it isn't gone yet." Keeping her distance from the fighting, Niki used her bow from the top of an undestroyed hill and helped to kill all the withers.

Despite witnessing Wilbur's death to Philza firsthand, she refused to acknowledge that he had died, instead insisting that he had gone missing in action as a means of coping and avoiding the reality of the situation, almost completely blacking out the entire event from her memory. She was integrated into the Tubbo Administration, being appointed as New L'Manberg's Secretary of Treasury.

Aftermath/reconstruction
Once L'Manberg had been partially rebuilt and everyone had time to settle, Niki decided to meet up with Fundy, and they began doing a recap of what happened in the Manberg vs Pogtopia War. She had been MIA since the war and not seen anyone for months. Together, they walked around the server and made note of everything they saw. Somewhere along the way, Fundy mentioned Wilbur's demise and Niki was shocked. It slowly sank in that her best friend was dead, and nobody had told her about it for months.

When they come to L'Manberg, Niki was awed at the new flag's design and at how well it was recovering from the damage it had suffered. When Fundy credited Ghostbur for most of the reconstruction, Niki was bewildered and uneasy, and dismissed the concept of Wilbur's return as a ghost, instead interpreting it as a hope that he was still alive. Fundy also showed Niki Ghostbur's house, but she thought he made it in remembrance. Fundy didn't try to change her mind, and so they continued on to other whereabouts such as Philza's home and her bakery. After they finished their tour, she resumed working in her underground city.

When Ranboo joined the server, Niki was one of the first people to greet him, and they quickly became friends. She gave him a tour around the different factions, and when he shared with her that he was planning on running for president in the next L'Manbergian election, she helped him come up with ideas for his campaign. He joined at around the same time as CaptainPuffy, whom Niki also became quite close with.

Date with Puffy/Life in L'Manberg
The next couple of weeks were relatively uneventful for Niki, save for her date with Captain Puffy. It began when Puffy gifted her a red poppy. She accepted it with gratitude, and the two then went together to the Holy Land, where Puffy had pre-arranged a picnic spot for them. It consisted of a classic red and white carpet surrounded by sunflowers and roses. There was a lantern at each corner as well as rendered images of Niki's IRL pets, Zuko and Toph. The food they shared was lettuce, baked potatoes, pie, and "champagne." Niki was openly enthusiastic and heartfelt about the date, and they were able to joke and laugh about a mistake in the images' plugin, setting them off on a good start.

Their main goal was to build something together once they'd finished their picnic. After a brief discussion, they decided to visit Niki's bakery while they asked Niki's chat for suggestions on what to build. They eventually narrowed it down to either a cottage, a coffee shop, or a flower shop, and ultimately decided on a flower shop.

Whilst mapping out the location, Tommy and Ranboo came past, the two tried to get out of Niki's vision but she quickly spotted them. Both Tommy and Ranboo were acting awkwardly and seemed to be confused. Puffy and Niki brushed it off as their normal behavior.

Later, Niki and Puffy both witnessed Ranboo and Tommy burning down George's house, but neither of them knew it was George's or the significance of this. So they returned to the Flower Shop.They enjoyed building it together, and although Fundy and Ranboo later jokingly attempted a takeover, the two women defended their shop, leading the other two to instead build a rivaling ice cream shop nearby.

Things seemed to be going pretty well until Dream showed up. Dream started asking them odd questions, such as where the border was drawn between the Dream SMP and L'Manberg. They answered to the best of their ability, but were then shocked when he began building an obsidian wall around the borders. He didn't directly answer any of their questions, which they found to be unsettling, as Puffy was a member of the SMP while Niki was not. They informed Tubbo, Fundy, and Ranboo of the turn of events, and Tubbo declared that he would meet with Dream to discuss what was happening. Their date ended on unsure terms, but Puffy gave Niki a "promise ring," stating that she was happy with the date. The ring was later destroyed in a creeper explosion, much to Niki's dismay.

Niki was beginning to suffer consequences similar to Schlatt's rule. She had no armour or weapons because they had all be stolen and never had a say in anything despite being a member of the cabinet. Her bakery business was at an all-time low, despite being promised a better life under Tubbo's rule. She was beginning to lose faith in everyone, but always kept her happy persona on in public.

Tommy's trial
As Niki would later learn, the conflict was because Tommy and Ranboo had burned down George's house, and since George was the then-king of the SMP, Dream interpreted it as an act of war on L'Manberg's behalf. Ranboo's involvement was mostly kept quiet, and so Tommy took the fall for the damage and was exiled to avoid war between the nations. This caused the Exile Conflict.

During the early stages of the trial, Tommy blamed the burning of the house on her, but it was disproven quickly due to her being on a date with Puffy all day. That was why him and Ranboo were acting oddly earlier, and Niki felt betrayed that they wanted to blame everything on her. Niki came forward with her case that she and Puffy saw him do it, but nobody listened to her points and ignored the fact that there were two eyewitnesses.

Niki visited Tommy once with Fundy during his exile, but she was rather upset with him for not having thought of L'Manberg as a whole, blaming his actions on her for no reason and for putting her relationship with Puffy at risk. She never came to see him on any other occasions, deciding that he could deal with the consequences of his actions himself.

Dry Waters
Niki recieved a message from Tubbo that her fox, Mushroom, had died of a stroke whilst being transported by him back from Pogtopia. She was upset, but didn't blame Tubbo because it had happened of natural causes. Later, Fundy joined the two of them and told Niki that Tubbo had killed Mushroom and was lying, but Tubbo denied this. Fundy later approached her and they could build a new city together in 'Australia'. Tubbo was sad to see them go, but understood their mindset.

Ranboo came along with them, and the three walked for about a thousand blocks before Fundy told them he'd forgotten the co-ordinates. Annoyed by this, Niki and Ranboo left Fundy to continue searching for the place. Dry Waters hasn't been mentioned since, and Niki moved permanently into her Underground City.

Green Festival
Niki returned to L'Manberg after some time away alone in time to catch the festival that Tubbo had planned out in an attempt to assassinate Dream. She participated in party games alongside her friends and former co-citizens, including Puffy, Fundy, Eret, and Ranboo. She found, much to her disappointment, that people were still ignoring her and speaking over her.

She followed along with the crowd, however, and witnessed the confrontation between Tubbo, Dream, Technoblade, and Tommy at the destroyed Community House. As Niki watched Tubbo and Tommy fight it out, she seemed upset that her allies were arguing, but soon began to smile and walked away from the Community House, not bothering to witness the outcome. Niki heard that the fighting had stopped and she stands on the path nearby, overhearing what was happening. She was angry to see Tommy so easily allowed back into L'Manberg, especially after seemingly condemning the country to the mercy of Techno and Dream, and expressed resentment towards him for all of the lies he'd told and mistakes he'd made in the past. She yelled from the crowd at him, and everyone teamed up on her to shut down her feelings of self-doubt. Tommy even called her stupid for doubting everyone. Niki felt like it mirrored the first festival, where she stood up to Schlatt and everyone else shut her down, and that time she was right.

She was upset at the reveal of Ranboo's treachery, and at first argued with him after his outburst regarding sides, but soon came to wonder if he was making a valid point after all. She was disappointed as she listened to Tommy and Tubbo's speeches about taking down Dream. She was no longer a member of L'Manberg herself, and was often ignored despite being one of the founding members of L'Manberg along with Tommy, Tubbo, Fundy, Wilbur and Jack Manifold. Niki was starting to feel more and more distant from her former country, thinking that perhaps much conflict could be avoided if L'Manberg were not around at all.

After all was said and done, and they were given a single day to prepare, she returned to her prior business and talked with Eret and Jack Manifold, where she was able to cool off. Along with Fundy and a few others, she aimed to follow in Ranboo's footsteps and get the entire server to unite together, proving that personal relationships are more important than obligations or sides. She also formulated an "upcoming goal" of her own, although she told no one what it was. She started changing her secret city into a secret library to store anything that can help her accomplish her own means. While her intentions are not fully known, she did make one thing very clear: she no longer trusts anyone.

Preparations for Doomsday
On the day of the attack, Niki announced that she would not fight, and would instead allow L'Manberg to be destroyed, as she wanted everyone else to open their eyes and see that the country's current state was nowhere near what it had been intended to be. The way she saw it, it was no longer about freedom or peace, and that was all she had ever wanted from it. All of the conflict was around this one place, and these people so maybe if the symbol of hope was gone, then they'd stop the fighting and the killing.

Before the war began, she apologized to Ranboo for lashing out at him the day before, and joined together with Fundy after he stated that he agreed with her assessment and destroyed a large amount of L'Manberg's stored materials. However, as they walked together, Niki seemed uncomfortable with how maniacal Fundy was acting, and how he'd laugh every time she said something.

She also had a few hushed words with Puffy before being interrupted by Tubbo. Once both had left, Niki expressed a desire to protect Puffy despite the amount of chaos which had gone down since their last date.

Doomsday
""It was never meant to be.""

During the majority of the fighting, Niki watched from the sidelines, occasionally dropping her own TNT on any areas that she saw had not yet been demolished. A little way through, Quackity confronted her about doing nothing. She ignored him and laughed at the idea for fighting for L'Manberg. Afterwards, she went into some underground tunnels underneath L'Manberg and placed TNT underneath before igniting it.

Near the end of the "battle," she saw that the L'Mantree - a tree that had been on the server since before L'Manberg was founded, the last marker of the nation's purity - was still standing. She'd once loved the tree, but upon approaching it, states that there is nothing left to fight for and burns it down. She afterwards found a high perch and watched L'Manberg burn from above, delivering her own soliloquy.

As more and more withers were released, Niki realized that the nonstop destruction was a bit much even for her, and began moving in to assist, but soon stopped. She announced to everyone that she was the one who burned down L'Mantree, Technoblade congratulated her and she thanked him. However, she then overheard a conversation between Philza and Jack Manifold where she discovered that Philza was the one who killed Wilbur.

No longer knowing who to trust, she wandered along the sidelines where she saw Ghostbur. Having thought that she was hallucinating, she broke down and ran, blowing up her own house and bakery. Whilst running, she set fire to most of the Prime Path before fleeing to her secret city, proclaiming that she wants to "burn the memories" and anything that reminded her of Wilbur and her former allies, officially breaking the new alliance her and Fundy had made only an hour earlier.

She stayed there until after the "Doomsday War" had concluded, then hesitantly returned to L'Canyon (what was left of L'Manberg) and meeting up again with Jack Manifold. She angrily told him about her newfound hatred of the former L'Manbergians and of how they looked down on everyone else, saying that she'd burned their tree down right in front of them and they hadn't even noticed until too late. Although at first disagreeing, Jack agreed with her points, and they formed a plan to teach them a lesson about valuing everyone and not just themselves.

Plot against Tommy
Jack had his own vendetta against TommyInnit, and Niki remembered that all of the conflict was caused by Tommy. The two decided that if Tommy was around, everyone would have someone to hate and if he was gone then maybe the server would be more peaceful.

Days later, Niki returned to her underground city with Jack Manifold, and he told her what he knew: In Snowchester, Tubbo was setting up nukes in an effort to kill Dream, and Tommy was not yet aware of the nukes. Still begrudging Tommy nearly everything that had happened during her time on the server, Niki worked with Jack on a revenge plot, the goal being to lure him onto the test site and get him killed. Thus far, they have worked out that Niki will pretend to befriend Tommy by claiming that Dream had manipulated her into burning the L'Mantree down. In an effort to get on his good side, she started constructing a cobblestone tower containing pictures of Vikkstar and the Queen of England.

Contact with the anarchists
Niki told Technoblade the location of her secret base and he met her there. Techno asked what she knew about Anarchy, but she told him that she knew it hurt her and everyone else. She was then told that it was more than that, although she needed little convincing. She was then given a choice to join Technoblade's secret organization: The Syndicate; an underground association that would be known only be members of the guild. Niki said that she would think about it, but at the moment she was to focused on killing Tommy to go full anarchist. Technoblade wished her luck with killing Tommy and left. Niki then stated that even though she will come back to Technoblade at the moment she was allied with Jack and they needed to finish the job. Although, she didn't trust Jack because she had realized he wasn't telling her everything, only what he wanted her to know.

Helping HBomb
Niki met HBomb in L'Canyon where he expressed feelings of doubt about living in Eret's Castle, the two spoke about many things and HBomb expressed concern about her. This is also the first time she put on Wilbur's coat. They headed there and discovered signs from Tommy in HBombs wing of the castle, which were a message for Eret. Both of them were confused by this, and HBomb decided he had finally had enough and wanted to move out. Niki told him about her nuke plot, but he disagreed with it and attempted to change her mind. Niki said she knew a direction where nobody else lived and so they could head there, and they walked for a while until they eventually found a savannah village. HBomb said he wanted to stay here permanently, and Niki supported his decision but asked what he was going to do with all of his stuff, and HBomb said she could have everything. For the first time since Schlatt, Niki finally wasn't poor and even had her first trident, which HBomb taught her to use. She goes and visits him and the village regularly.

Disc War finale
Niki stood on the path watching Tommy and Tubbo walk to their supposed deaths. Tommy stopped to half-heartedly say sorry to her, although he also did it to everyone else. It is likely she thought of this as disingenuous. Niki also was one of the people who followed Punz through the nether-portal to stop Dream from killing Tubbo and Tommy. She then watched as Dream was taken to prison.

Attempted assassination
Niki went to try and find Tommy in order to lead him to the Nuclear Testing Site and kill him. She couldn't find him, but instead found Jack Manifold who told her that Tommy was at the Big Innit Hotel Building Site and that Sam Nook had been paid off to give him instructions to find spruce wood. Spruce Wood could only be found at the Nuclear Testing Site. She goes to find him there, and tries to get his attention but he spends an extremely long time talking to Sam which causes the timing to get messed up.

Despite trying her best, Niki is forced to continuously stop on the journey to wait for Tommy. She has to listen to him non-stop talk about Avengers Endgame and get distracted and walk off. He then starts being rude to her and even compares her to Wilbur, making Niki feel extremely overwhelmed and upset.

This causes them to be a few seconds late to the test site and rather than Tommy dying, they discover a huge crater where the Nuke had been set off. Jack and Tubbo are there, but luckily no suspicion was put on her because she had no known connection to Jack or Tubbo. Jack and she made excuses and left, they had a huge argument where Jack got extremely angry at Niki. Whilst the two of them tried to think about what to do next, Niki suggested teaming up with the Eggpire as she knew they didn't like Tommy. Jack didn't like this idea, and wanted to team up with the Syndicate instead. Niki was hesitant about this because she knew that would mean using Techno for their own personal gain.

They were forced to party at Snowchester in order to seem normal. Whilst at the party, Tommy got the effects of radiation poisoning after being at the test site and was only on half a heart. But Jack stopped Niki from killing him as Tubbo was there.

Underground city
Niki continued building her city underground, wanting less contact with other people as she feels all they will do is either die or betray her. She refuses to eat food anymore, and whenever she gets hungry just jumps off a ledge to reset her food bar. She also suffers from insomnia although she calls it 'night terrors'. The lack of sleep sometimes causes her to hallucinate. Her bedroom looks like a jail cell, with bars across the front to stop her from sleepwalking.

Niki also wants to build a jungle and aquarium in the city so she can be outside without having the fear of other people noticing her. However, over time her carefully planned-out city began to grow disconnected and chaotic, with random things strewn everywhere. Due to her lack of sleep and food, Niki has devoted a lot of time to writing in her diary. Whenever she wakes up or thinks of something she sits down and starts writing and talking to her diary, as if it is a real person. She has desks and books everywhere in the city so she can sit and write whenever she wants to not feel alone.

When coming home from helping Hannah in the nether, Niki discovered a giant library almost directly next to her secret city. She explored it and found out it was Karl's. Not wishing to cause any harm, she left and went down to her city. She renovated her underground city, spending a lot of time talking to herself. Niki also liked the idea that she and Jack could be 'Team Rocket'.

After joining the Syndicate, Niki decides to change the goals back to an underground city rather than a library. She plans to build apartment rooms, tree farms and shops so anyone can come and go as they please. She also crafts a beacon from a wither star that a wither dropped on Doomsday. Niki then explores Kinoko Kingdom and doesn't seem to mind it although she expresses a little concern about a country sprouting up on her doorstep.

Niki shows people around her apartments, such as Ponk and HBomb, and says it costs one iron ore per night they wish to stay. She then continues renovating the apartments and digging out more rooms underground. She mentions accidentally digging into Karl's Library whilst making a new room underground.

Whilst mining, Foolish accidentally dug into her city - falling through the roof. Niki gave him lots of stone, so he offered to make her a huge build but she asked for tips on how to renovate her city instead. Later she hired him to make an underground waterfall and garden in her city, but Foolish insisted to do it for free.

Ponk is the first person to rent out one of her rooms. Whilst there, she provides him with food and company. She also treats his arm which Awesamdude chopped off and manages to heal it.

After the Red Banquet, Niki had a long period of absence from the smp. When she returned she spent most of her time renovating the city and spending time with other members of syndicate, assuming people who were there would learn to deal with the conflict as death happened so often.

Joining the Syndicate
Niki begins to break again, she knows Jack has been going behind her back and decides to finally end Team Rocket. She also tried to reconnect with Puffy so she can talk to her, but Puffy hasn't been in contact causing Niki to start wondering if anyone cares for her. Niki heads to the arctic and discovers Technoblade's cabin, Niki falters, not wanting to speak to him in case it hurts her friends. She also sees Phil there, and starts to walk away because she knows he killed Wilbur. However, the voices in her head convince her to turn back around, because the Wilbur she loved had already been lost long before Phil had intervened. Niki enters the house, deciding she finally wants a family who will care for her as a person rather than just a member of a faction.

Technoblade arrives after her, and the two speak. She tells him that she wants to accept his deal and join him. Phil and Technoblade decide that she is ready and tell her everything, giving her a book which explains the Syndicate. Technoblade's emotional support bear, Steve, takes a like to her causing them to trust her even more. Niki notices that Ranboo is watching them and accidentally tells him she has joined the Syndicate. Now that Ranboo knows, Phil and Techno decide it will be best if he joins as well and the four are now the official members.

Techno and Phil bring Niki and Ranboo to the meeting room. They ask Niki if she's willing to die for them now, and she says she is. Niki has every piece of netherite she owns with her, but still jumps in the lava pit for them, however she discovers it was trust exercise and survives. They then arrive at the meeting room and she has her first ever Syndicate Meeting. She is told to come up with a codename, and her book (Chat) recommend Athena, Hecate, Artemis, and Persephone, but ultimately Niki never decides until later on (naming herself Nemesis). The Syndicate discusses the egg, and Niki has never seen it but from what Techno explains, she decides that she doesn't like it.

They decide to check out Snowchester to see how powerful it is getting and Niki reveals she has been underground for the past month - having no contact with anyone. Upon learning this, Ranboo realizes she doesn't know Tommy's dead and breaks the news to her. Niki laughs at the fact he's dead, saying that Tommy is unable to die and will find a way out of the afterlife somehow,. Niki later confides in Technoblade about her nuke plot, which he says sounded like a good plan, however she slowly realizes that she never wanted to hurt Tommy. Niki now knows that despite Tommy hurting her, he's just a child, she also realizes that he is not at fault for Wilbur's death, and her built-up anger at Wilbur's death caused her to take it all out on Tommy.

Discovering Tommy's revival
Niki was in her underground city when Jack came down to see her. Jack then told her everything about Tommy dying and that he had now come back. He then asks if she wanted to rejoin him again, but she refuses to say that she doesn't want to hurt Tommy anymore. Niki then reveals that she just baked a cake and wants to start baking more like when she was in L'Manberg and also wants to live in peace in her city without government. Jack then gets angry and slaughters her chickens, saying that if she believes in no laws and that everyone is equal then she has no reason to stop him. Niki says she forgives him for making the point, but he needs to calm down and not be too rash. As he leaves Niki tells him that he will always be welcome in her city.

Hell and DreamXD
Mexican Dream meets Bad and Niki, and asks for George to take him to El Rapids. The two make their way to where El Rapids used to be, and Bad and Niki join them. Bad tells George that El Rapids had been taken down, and Mexican Dream chases George in rage. Mexican Dream then questions Bad and Niki about his homeland, and demands to speak with Ranboo and Quackity. Bad frames George for taking down El Rapids, and adds that George had "sleep-mined it." Mexican Dream attacks George after George defends himself, and Bad states that someone who resembled George had destroyed the country. Niki supports Bad, stating that she does not believe Bad was lying.

The four make their way to the Dating Club under Karl's house. Mexican Dream sets the house on fire, and George, Niki, and Bad try to stop the fire. Mexican Dream then threatens George, telling George to find Quackity for him, and leaves. The three then put out the fire, and George starts to repair the damage. Bad stops him and removes George's repairs. Niki accuses Bad of framing Quackity, and George asks Bad for his reasoning to leave the room in the damaged state.

Bad states that they can blame the damage done by Mexican Dream on the egg, and that it would be as a warning to Quackity to not mess with the egg. George tells Bad that the egg is influencing him, and Niki gets wary of Bad. She states that she doesn't want to get involved with the egg. Bad forces George and Niki to follow him to the egg room. Niki suggests for them to not follow Bad, and George states that they have no choice since Bad is stronger than them. Bad makes a staircase to the surface, and George and Niki tell him that they don't know what the egg is. The two also start to question why Bad "worshipped" an egg. Bad tells George to not tell Quackity that Mexican Dream had burned down the Dating Club so that the egg can be blamed for it.

DreamXD logs on, and George tells the entire story with Niki supporting him. Bad tries to defend himself, and DreamXD uses a command to kill Bad. DreamXD then allows George to take Bad's items, and George hesitates. Bad grabs his items and flees, and DreamXD asks George why he had not taken Bad's items. George states that he was afraid that Bad's items were infected, and asks for a set of netherite armor. DreamXD's voice changes, and he states that he had given George a chance to take Bad's stuff. Niki then asks George if he is still dreaming.

George and DreamXD decide to find Niki to prank, and DreamXD "sniffs" for Niki. They find Niki on the Prime Path near Punz's base, and DreamXD scares Niki. She runs away and wants to find someone to comfort her.

DreamXD and George find Niki outside Puffy's therapy office, and George tells her that DreamXD had learned how to make a good joke. DreamXD then makes squeaking noises, and tells Niki that he and George had placed her shoes at Church Prime.

Niki travels to Church Prime to find her shoes, and George and DreamXD meet her there to tell her that it was a prank. DreamXD then tells George that he has another idea for a joke, and states that they should tell Niki that they are going to kill her pets. George then tells him to not, and Dream makes Niki disappear, also killing her. She eventually was brought back, but was extremely scared and told George she'd 'seen things'. In her time in hell, she was there for around sixteen minutes. It is unknown what she saw in hell, as she ran back to her underground city, crying when she was brought back. It is unknown if DreamXD truly took Niki to hell or if the trip was canon at all.

Wilbur's revival
Niki and the rest of the Syndicate members threw a surprise birthday party for Technoblade at his house. They ate cake and joked about blowing up more countries. After a while they sat down to eat and they all were having a good time.

Philza brought up the revival book and how Wilbur had been revived. Shocked by how casual the other members reacted, Niki went into a state of panic. She spoke about how she was terrified of Schlatt coming back and tried to change the subject several times. When Ghostbur was brought up, Niki got even worse - realising that Wilbur had been back as a ghost and he'd never even tried to visit her in the long time he's been on the server.

Technoblade went off to speak with Quackity who had be watching and when he came back he told her that it was an IOU discussion. She baked him some Pumpkin Pies and told him the IOU is full of empty promises like Wilbur.

Mourning and changing
Niki reflects on Wilbur's resurrection and his history. Niki starts at where she had left off at Techno's birthday table and goes to Phil's house wondering why Wilbur had to be revived. Niki tells the picture of Wilbur there that he is out of her head. She then asks why he is back and what he wants. After, Niki heads outside and states that Wilbur invades her safe place. She asks Wilbur what his plans are because whatever they are she plans to stop them.

Niki returns to Phil's house and questions the image of Wilbur about who he is going to manipulate next. She states that it won't be her next time as she knows his lies. Niki wonders what she is going to do with Wilbur back and makes her way back to her city while wondering who Wilbur might manipulate next. She considers Wilbur targeting Jack while comforting herself by saying that Jack is too smart to fall for Wilbur's lies.

Niki explains that she thought that Wilbur cared about her and wonders why Wilbur would change if he just manipulated people. She continues, stating that Wilbur never cared or changed. Niki enters the portal to the nether and wonders why Wilbur would join Dream if Dream was the main enemy that everyone fought against. She states that Wilbur and Dream were people who ruled over countries and did not care about the people.

Niki states that Wilbur had sacrificed his life for power, and that now that he is back, everything will revolve around him again. She repeats that Wilbur invades her safe haven before returning to her city. Niki states that she had blamed Wilbur's mistakes, betrayal, and how he had hurt her and others on herself. She adds that it brought her nowhere and states that she can't sleep or eat to continue working on her city since she does not have any strength to do so. Niki takes Wilbur's diamonds that he had given her at her bakery. She states that nobody had told her that Wilbur had been revived. She starts mining a tunnel in one of the rooms of her underground city, stating that nobody told her that Wilbur had been revived since they knew what would happen and that she did not care.

Niki states that Wilbur had been Ghostbur. She continues, stating that she had seen Wilbur's body and that the TNT he had placed. She continues, stating that she trusted Wilbur so much that she had told nobody about it and hid the TNT with blocks. Niki states that in the end, Wilbur still blew up L'Manberg. Niki grabs wood to craft a chest and states that Wilbur never cared about her, the others, or L'Manberg. She adds that Wilbur never cared about the people and only wanted power.

Niki states that Wilbur only thought of himself and that he still hurt people even though they still had trust in him. She states that Ghostbur had just forgotten about her and that she was alone for months because Wilbur never checked in with her. Niki places the diamonds in a chest in the tunnel, stating that they were the first gift Wilbur gave her. She states that Wilbur was just a memory and that he can't hurt or promise her anything anymore.

Niki states that Wilbur had "walked away" from her and that she would not allow Wilbur to do that to her anymore since she has friends who cared about her. Niki leaves her city and wonders why Wilbur had to be revived. She also wonders what his plans are and what Dream wants from Wilbur. Niki states that Dream had revived Wilbur since he knows what Wilbur is capable of.

Niki continues, stating that Wilbur had abandoned L'Manberg because he was in power and had destroyed it. She adds that she was on the run from Schlatt to prevent herself from getting imprisoned and taxed. Niki states that she was taxed so much that she could not support her bakery. She states that Wilbur had promised to get her out of Manberg and that she waited for so long. Niki explains that when the time came and she met Wilbur again, Wilbur had changed into a different person.

Niki continues, stating that she thought Wilbur was the person she thought he was. She looks over the L'Manberg crater and states that Wilbur would have loved the old L'Manberg. Niki heads to the L'Manberg crater and says that Wilbur was not the only one who fought for L'Manberg and that he had turned people who trusted him against each other. She makes her way to the remains of Jack's house and states that she had tried to keep everyone safe in her city. Niki adds that Wilbur would never be happy since he wanted something that he could never have. Niki questions what Wilbur would fight for if he has everything. She then goes to the remains of her bakery and Tubbo's docks. Niki then states that she wants to know why Wilbur never came back to her. Niki leaves the L'Manberg crater and glances at Tommy's bench before continuing down the Prime Path. She stops near the ice cream and flower shops before walking back to the community nether portal, finally at peace with herself.

BearSMP
Niki, the content creator, is a part of another Minecraft SMP called the BearSMP, created by bearbubb. In this server, she played the same character as Nihachu in Dream SMP.

Before the Dream SMP
Before the creation of the 'Dream SMP' civilization, Niki used to live in the 'Perfect SMP' civilization and had a good friend called bearbubb. However, she left the SMP because she felt she "needed a new beginning", abandoning the town and her friend. She came across the Dream SMP sometime after this.

BearSMP
After approximately five years since leaving the Perfect SMP, Niki decided to visit her friend Bear and sent him a few letters saying that she would visit him soon. She arrived and Bear toured her around the Bear SMP. She also knew about another one of the Bear SMP members, Ori. She told Bear about the Dream SMP and spoke of her experiences there with bitterness, saying it didn't work out and she regretted leaving the Perfect SMP. She resisted Bear's idea of having any sort of ruling structure, displaying her hatred of government. She also said that she had responsibilities back in Dream SMP and would have to travel back and forth a lot, meaning that the two SMPs occur in roughly the same timeframe.


 * However, bearbubb has confirmed that the only thing that connects both SMPs is Niki, with her being the same character. Otherwise, everything else that happens on the Dream SMP or the Bear SMP is not connected or canon whatsoever to both SMPs seperate storylines.

Prison Break
Niki was in her underground city when she recieved a message from Techno to come over immediately, confused she headed over to his house through her garden nether path with haste, and although getting lost for a while she managed to find her way through the snowy desert. She jumped through the lava and into the Syndicate meeting room where Techno and Phil were already. Whilst Niki assumed they were waiting for Ranboo, Techno informed Niki of his time in the prison and how he was going to break Dream out which she wasn't pleased about. Techno then told her about how he thought Ranboo was in jail and Niki now wanted to help Techno break Ranboo out of jail even if it meant Dream leaving too. The three plus the new member of the Syndicate, Techno's dog Apollo, went to the blueprint room and Techno explained his plan on how to break them out. He instructed Niki to stay outside the prison to pull him out if necessary and to keep her involvement with them a secret because she had no known secrets with the Syndicate. Techno removed the blueprints and Niki gave him lots of potions. Techno and Phil then informed her of what her job was in the heist - back-up and distraction - if Phil set off the signal that meant something was wrong and she had to set off as many withers as possible and mingle naturally with the group who would arrive. They then rode over to the prison on horses and took a short cut through L'Manberg - something Niki wasn't pleased about.

Techno and Apollo went into the Prison with Apollo and Niki and Phil stood outside chatting and waiting for a while. Niki and Phil began to feel uneasy and Niki turned around to see Fundy and Foolish standing on a hill watching them, and realised they were the prison guards. Niki and Phil came up with a cover story for her whilst Phil hid himself in a cave but the guards vanished and Niki couldn't find them. Niki waited alone for a long time for them to come back out, slowly getting more and more panicked. Suddenly, the prison alarm went off and Philza told Niki to pretend to be an innocent bystander although she was jittery and terrified and couldn't find anyone who came. Niki eventually bumped into Eryn, Sapnap, Michaelmcchill and Punz who had stolen her horse and hadn't heard the alarms, Niki pretended she didn't know what the alarms were for and when Michael asked why they hadn't met, they quickly got off track discussing how Niki had been alone in her city for 6 months. Sapnap insisted they all went to MacDonalds instead of checking out the alarm, meaning she couldn't leave. The others began robbing the MacDonald's stall jokingly and throwing food at eachother as Niki grew frustrated when Sam arrived. Sam instructed everyone to run to the prison as Dream had broken out and they were overpowered, acting shocked and they all ran when suddenly Tommy joined vc as panicked as the rest of them, others followed after. They all arrived at the prison confused and shouting one another whilst Niki watched silently, Sam was teleported away and Tommy took charge. Eryn became suspicious of Niki and began interrogating her, but Tommy interupted them and Eryn rode away with the others. Niki set off many withers as Dream escaped to outside the prison. Sapnap ambushed Niki as she went to set up one and informed the others as she ran for her life.

In her haste she escaped to L'Manberg and used the portal to return to go to the Nether, only to spot everyone in pursuit of the others running down the path. Sapnap and Eryn found Niki and chased her through the portal to Logstedshire where they lost her although Sapnap got her pickaxe. Confused, Niki searched Logstedshire, wondering what it was and found its blown up remenants as well as a pile of blue left by Ghostbur, she silently returned to the Nether and then to Techno's house.

Niki found Connor there but not Ranboo. She was informed that Ranboo had been killed in the escape and she was horrified. Connor accepted Techno's invitation to join the Syndicate before leaving to build a dirt house nearby and the three discussed how weird it was that he was in prison and had full netherite despite that. Connor returned and the four sat down to discuss things further. Techno showed Niki a picture Ranboo gave to him before he died and it was a picture of MICHAEL, Ranboo's son and the four realised they needed to protect and help MICHAEL. Niki decided not to go with them and instead hide out until people stopped hunting her.

Jack Manifold later came to see her in her city. He questioned her about what she had done that day. and she initially gave vague answers but soon broke down saying she had to help Ranboo and that she wished that it had never gotten to the Withers. The two argued with Jack saying she shouldn't have let Dream out for Ranboo and her saying she couldn't let Ranboo stay in there. Jack asked why Niki would help Techno with his favour and Niki argued he was his friend leading to this confrontation: "Techno- he's my friend!" "Wasn't I? Wasn't everyone?"

After they stopped arguing, Jack told Niki about where he'd been and said that he felt that the world was against him but Niki was the only one who seemed to agree with him. They soon argued again, but this time over the value of their friendship. Niki admitted to Jack that she never tried to look for him, but that she was busy and he wasn't the centre of attention and she wasn't going to help him as she felt like she tried her best to do what's right - get Ranboo out of prison. As the two continued, emotions ran high until Niki gave in and said she only wanted to give people happy lives and second chances and that she wanted Jack to help her in her underground city of peace, he didn't have to be involved with Technoblade anymore and he didn't have to run away. The two made up and apologised, accepting their own flaws and Jack gave Niki the co-ordinates to New Manifold Land so they could keep in touch.

Quotes

 * "Dear Friend. I hope this letter finds you well. By the time you will read this, I will be long gone, so don't come looking for me. Don't worry— we shall see each other soon, but I am writing to you in hopes you can bring out my word to the people. L'Manberg lies in shambles. The election is over and Schlatt has come to power. [...] Our once beloved nation has turned into a nightmare on Earth. He tore down our walls, wanting to expand into enemy territory and took our names from us, renaming L'Manberg Manberg. He casted out Tommy and Wilbur. [...] Taxed me, took my belongings and threw me into jail for not complying. I managed to escape and am safe for now, but people are looking for me and I don't know what will happen if they find me. Fundy has turned to his side, the man I trusted and being his running mate. The man I thought could be trusted with our nation, the man I went to war with. He burned my flag, our symbol, [...] and rebuilt it in a new nation's name. Now I know that he only wanted power. I don't know who to trust anymore. I feel like everyone has turned against me. Tubbo is standing by Jschlatt's side and he is even wearing his suit. But I will not stand and I will not fall for a selfish leader who does not care for his people and who can only see revenge and hatred. And will do anything to just stay in power. I will not stand and I will not fall for a nation who forgot where they came from. I will not stand and I will not fall for the tyrranist that has taken everything I love. All I know is that Mister JSchlatt is putting way to much on his plate and it is time someone takes it from him. So please, friend, I need your help. JSchlatt has planned a festival and he has invited every citizen on the Dream SMP, L'Manberg, and everyone in between. I don't know what he is trying to achieve.

 * "No one will care until it's too late." - Niki discussing her plot with Jack
 * "We've been overlooked for way too long."
 * "JSchlatt has planned a festival and you know - you know what they say about a woman that has nothing to lose." - Niki after being imprisoned by Schlatt
 * "Be the one that got away."
 * "It's Tommy. Tommy doesn't die... we literally tried to nuke this child and he was still alive."
 * "Jack, I'm not sure I want to kill Tommy. Tommy has gone through a lot too and it's not his fault Will- Wilbur left." - Niki after Jack suggests a second team-up
 * "You know what, Jack? I hear you. I understand you. I have been through the Tommy problems that we all have been through. I miss our little duo that we had going on. You know what? If you give me some time, I might think about it. In the meantime, you have a place you can go. You'll always be welcome here."
 * "I haven't seen Puffy in days, because Puffy doesn't talk to me anymore, because we both just have differences. And I can't tell her I want to kill the child she's protecting, which makes it very hard for me. It makes it very hard for our relationship. " - Niki wondering about Puffy
 * "Are you dreaming again George?" - Niki to George whilst they're talking to DreamXD
 * "It was never meant to be." - Niki burning down L'Mantree
 * "People tend to not do that. People tend to, you know... talk over me and not listen to me, but I believe that if L'Manberg gets blown up, people are finally going to realize that it's a vicious cycle! Fighting over the same and same place all the time. It's being blown up again." - Niki's speech to her friends before Doomsday
 * "Well, I don’t know, Jack. I don’t know... I... I started baking again." - During an argument in her Secret City with Jack about Tommy’s revival
 * "Why did no one tell me you're back. Why do you have to be back! I thought I got rid of you. I thought I got rid of the thought of you." - Niki about Wilbur's revival
 * "What are you doing here, in the only place where I am safe? You have to invade because you always do that. You always have to invade where I feel safe... what is your plan?"
 * "Who are you going to manipulate next? Because it's not going to be me this time... it's not going to be me this time!"  - Niki about Wilbur 
 * "I'm not going to blame it on other people again because I always did that! I always blamed YOUR mistakes and YOUR betrayal and YOU hurting me on other people. And look where it got me...look where it got me! It got me nowhere!"
 * "I thought I got better, I thought I stopped starving myself and throwing myself off of my building to regenerate my health... to heal... yeah, of course, to heal!"
 * "I was so naive, thinking that when you were still alive, maybe you could be rescued. Maybe you could be rescued, and then you could... you could be happy. I thought you could be happy. But you will never be happy, because all you want is what you can' t have. And when you have everything... what will you fight for?"
 * "That sounds like someone with empty promises... was it Wilbur?" - Niki to Technoblade at his birthday party
 * "I guess at the end he was pretty fond of him. Two maniacs leading countries, leading places and people and forgetting about the people they care about just for power! Just for power! This is what you did for power! You sold your soul, for power."
 * "Now you're back. And the world revolves around Wilbur again."
 * "I hope Techno's alright, I can't lose another friend. I can't lose another friend to Dream." - Niki talking to herself during the Prison Break
 * "I have a mission...I have a mission...I have to wait for Dream and Ranboo and make sure Techno's fine..." - Niki panicking during the Prison Break
 * "I- just what I was told Jack. I had to help Techno- Ranboo was stuck in prison- trust me I didn't want it to happen- it was the last resort- we- it was the last resort- I- I- I didn't-" - Niki panicking and tumbling over her words when Jack confronts her about the Prison Break
 * "Jack, you think that you are the person. That everyone else is selfish, but think about the things that I had to do! I've had to go through things too! And I have finally found friends and I can't just stop them by telling them 'Oh no I can't help you!' Ranboo was in prison...and for some reason Connor."
 * "Jack was there...Tommy was there...they saw me...set up the withers...I just wanted to help Techno and- and free Ranboo. Ranboo was trapped. Oh no...oh no...what have I done?" -Niki reflecting after the jailbreak
