NiGHTS is the main character of the NiGHTS game series developed by Sega and Sonic Team.
Introduction
NiGHTS is a genderless being according to the game's director, Takashi Iizuka, who is up to the player to interpret. Their gender and pronouns are up for interpretation by each individual player, as everyone has different dreams.
NiGHTS is very mysterious and graceful, at the same time, mischievous and playful. Being very free-spirited, they won't follow anybody's orders unless they want to. According to the NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams manual, NiGHTS likes to scare and make fun of people, and they don't have a strong sense of right and wrong.
Despite being the savior of the world of dreams, NiGHTS still appears to have some devious Nightmaren traits within them. This is shown in the NiGHTS Storybook, where NiGHTS is arrogant and rude towards Elliot, despite the latter helping them. When Reala imprisoned NiGHTS inside an Ideya Palace, neither NiGHTS nor Elliot knew how to break through it. Yet, NiGHTS would still act like this was Elliot's responsibility and order him to find a way out by himself. As Elliot didn't know what to do, NiGHTS would insult him. The Storybook also shows that NiGHTS is very childish and naive, as when Reala challenges them for a game, they fail to notice it is a trap.
NiGHTS appears to dislike revealing their identity as a Nightmaren to visitors, and gets displeased when Reala refers to them as such. In Journey of Dreams, Helen is horrified to learn that NiGHTS is a Nightmaren, which upsets NiGHTS so much that they fail to notice Reala paralooping Helen. This likely shows that NiGHTS wants to be friends and feels rejected when people judge them for being a Nightmaren. Curiously, in the NiGHTS Storybook, they didn't mind when Elliot found that out.
History
NiGHTS was created by the creator of Nightmare in the Night Dimension, Wizeman the Wicked. Being one of Wizeman's strongest creations, their purpose was to do evil, destroy the world of dreams and steal a type of human's dream energy called Ideya, so that their master could open a portal to the Waking World. However, NiGHTS disagreed with their creator's goals and rebelled against Wizeman and fellow Nightmarens.
To protect the world of dreams, NiGHTS has the assistance of human children, who allow NiGHTS to use their Ideyas (dream energy) to make them powerful enough to fight against the Nightmarens.
