Editing The Lavesgrie Exile:Nil (section)

== Looks ==
In his earlier years, Nihilus was taking smug satisfaction in being a child-savant, in showing off both his knowledge and his youthful energy. He has outgrown that stage in more ways than one, and his manner is more subdued, if no less driven when it comes to lore-seeking. He now takes some pain to cover his apparent age, as if ashamed, usually wearing austere (if  obviously expensive, in accordance to his mistress' new position) midnight-black mesh-coat with a deep face-concealing cowl and silver embroidery. His nearly-perfect memory helps him none-at-all when it comes to shaving and timely haircuts. 

As Meme-Virus prompts the afflicted to not only acquire, but also to disseminate information, Nihilus has voluntarily undergone an invasive procedure, turning him into a "silent savant". To produce any audible sound, he has to physically press the subdermal rune on his artificial voicebox - the attempted motion is usually enough to bring himself under control. This gives his voice a notably metallic timbre. 

Accompanying him almost always are two servo-skulls, equipped with a full array of audio and visual sensors and auspexi. They are distinguished by densely inscribed parchments affixed over the skull's eyesockets or temples respectively. Each one may also bear a pistol-sized weapon, usually a hell-pistol - Nil is so comfortable using them in this capacity, that he considers himself "armed", not "guarded".
