Nyon

Very little is known about Nyon’s life before becoming a Catman.

Official information states he was once human, but, like Nyen, he no longer remembers his previous life.

There are hints that prolonged residence within the Ivory household changes those who live there, though the exact nature of that transformation remains intentionally ambiguous.

Nyon has lived under Luther’s care long enough to acquire some of Luther’s unusual regenerative qualities, making him far more durable than an ordinary human.

Likes

Official material lists or strongly implies that Nyon enjoys:

• Luther.
• Reading Fyodor Dostoevsky novels.
• Technology.
• Watching television.
• Sleeping and napping.
• Quiet environments.
• Relaxing.
• Tissues and napkins.
• Pickled vegetables.
• Occasionally smoking when he’s in the mood.

His interests are generally solitary and low-energy. Rather than seeking excitement, he seems happiest when left alone with a book or a television.

⸻

Dislikes

Officially, Nyon dislikes:

• Ghosts.
• Loud noises.
• Confrontation.

His behavior throughout the comics also suggests he dislikes unnecessary chaos, though living in the Ivory household means he’s forced to tolerate it almost daily.

Despite his low danger rating, Nyon is far from powerless.

Officially or consistently implied abilities include:

• High adaptability.
• Fast regeneration due to prolonged exposure to Luther.
• Longevity.
• Good durability.
• Ability to disappear from one location (not conventional teleportation).
• Good night vision.
• Basic bomb-making.
• Surprisingly good endurance.

Unlike Nyen, he almost never uses these abilities aggressively.

Relationship with Luther

Luther is Nyon’s master.

Unlike many servant-master dynamics in fiction, Nyon doesn’t appear driven by fear alone.

He’s deeply obedient because that’s simply the role he’s occupied for a very long time.

He generally follows Luther’s instructions without arguing.

Luther treats him as one of his Catmen and even refers to Nyon and Nyen as brothers despite them not being biologically related.

⸻

Relationship with Nyen

Nyon and Nyen have a strange dynamic.

Nyen frequently bullies or annoys Nyon, often because he sees him as weak or simply enjoys provoking him.

Nyon rarely retaliates.

Instead, he usually tolerates it or quietly walks away.

Despite this, they aren’t enemies.

They occasionally relax together, and official material even notes they sometimes smoke together, showing that their relationship is more complicated than simple hostility.

⸻

Relationship with Randal

Nyon appears noticeably uncomfortable around Randal.

This isn’t because Randal has personally wronged him every time they interact, but because Randal’s unpredictable behavior is inherently unsettling.

Official comics show Randal bothering Nyon in bizarre ways—wearing his shirt, damaging his hat, mutilating his lips, or stabbing him while he’s trapped in a box. Even so, Nyon often complies with Randal’s requests, likely because Randal is Luther’s younger brother and because Nyon is generally dutiful.

Nyon is often reduced by fans to “the shy one,” but that’s an oversimplification.

Yes, he’s quiet and avoids conflict—but he isn’t constantly frightened or helpless.

His defining trait is passivity, not cowardice.

Nyon tends to observe before acting. He rarely inserts himself into situations unless someone directly involves him. When chaos erupts around the Ivory household—which is often—he usually reacts with resignation rather than panic.

He’s soft-spoken and speaks very little. When he does talk, it’s usually brief and practical. Silence seems to come naturally to him rather than being something he struggles with.

Unlike Nyen, who actively seeks confrontation, Nyon generally sees conflict as unnecessary and would rather remove himself from the situation if possible.

However, avoiding fights doesn’t mean he lacks resilience.

Living under Luther for so long has made him remarkably adaptable. He tolerates bizarre situations, physical harm, and the house’s surreal environment with an almost detached acceptance.

He can be surprisingly helpful when someone genuinely needs assistance, sometimes guiding others or quietly helping them without expecting anything in return.

Nyon also possesses an understated sense of humor. It’s subtle, dry, and often easy to miss because he delivers it with the same flat expression he uses for everything else.

He isn’t especially emotional on the surface, but that doesn’t mean he lacks emotions. Rather, he internalizes them.

Compared to the rest of the Ivory household, he’s one of the few members who feels relatively “grounded,” making him seem almost normal despite living in an extremely abnormal environment.

Nyon resembles Luther more than almost anyone else in the house.

He has:

• Light blue, shoulder-length hair cut into a pageboy style.
• Pale skin.
• Large eyes surrounded by dark red rings, giving him a permanently tired appearance.
• Three drawn whiskers on each cheek.
• Three lower eyelashes beneath each eye.
• A very small mouth.
• Long fingers with sharp nails.
• A tall, thin build.
• A constant slouched posture.

He almost never stands completely straight.

His expression is usually blank or mildly uneasy, making it difficult to tell what he’s thinking.

Unlike Nyen, his face rarely becomes expressive.
Nyon almost always wears the same outfit:

• Black headband with round cat ears.
• Long-sleeved yellow shirt with “OK ½” printed across a white oval.
• Light blue jeans.
• Pointed black shoes.

His cat ears are part of his recognizable design and contribute to the strange, artificial appearance shared by the Catmen.
