Nickel

Appearance
Nickel, without a host, looks like a millipede, with two large claws that looks similar to dragon wings. It looks about the size of a fist. It also has two long tentacle things that are normally curled up at it's side.

Nickel's current host appears to be some sort of weird human-dragon hybrid. They have curved black horns, a black and purple tail, and scales scattered all over their body. They have white hair and chocolate colored skin. His eyes are entirely black.

Personality
He relies heavily on his instincts. He tends to be very clingy towards the people he gets attached to and though he rarely understands what’s going on and why everyone acts so silly, he understands when it’s probably best to hide because of a fight about the break out. He can be extremely social towards people he trusts, though his judgement at times can be very bad. He likes to meet new people and is very proud of his crude drawings.

Powers

 * is capable of reviving and taking over a dead body
 * also secretes a very useful chemical capable of jumpstarting the heart, though it doesn't work if the heart is too damaged.

Backstory
A year ago, Cleaver accidentally created a species of parasite who called themselves "Meknos." They could essentially take over dead bodies and bring them back to life through a special chemical they can secrete. Though normally, Cleaver could just make them extinct with just a wave of her hand, these creatures had gained sentience and therefore were able to become immune to Cleaver's will.

Understandably, Cleaver was upset by this, but she went dormant before she could do anything about it.

A year later, when she woke up, she sent one of her demigods, Cynthia, on a mission to hunt down one of the hives and make them extinct while she dealt with the others herself.

Meanwhile, Nickel has hatched shortly after the creation of their species, and while the queen of their hive was very lenient about her soldiers having disabilities, since all it would take was a host to solve them, Nickel was mentally handicapped.

When the queen discovered this, she decided to have Nickel killed, but Nickel managed to take over a dead body and hide before they could.

At the same time, Cynthia and her companions broke into the hive and killed everyone. They decided to spare Nickel not only because of their innocence and because they pitied them, but also because Cynthia was very reluctant to kill in general.

Cynthia's parents ended up adopting Nickel and so far they're living together happily.
