CHARACTER HISTORY
Nisa Kaplan was born and raised in the city of neon lights. At every corner, Nisa’s eyes were glued to the flashing lights. Her parent’s inherited Elysian Market from their parents, coming from a long generation of families involved in various trades within the Asenas. Her mother was a Șifaci while Nisa was growing up and her father was a heist specialist. The two of them retired from their positions a long while ago, keeping their loyalty to the Asenas by promising their daughter would be following in her mother’s footsteps.
This was something that was never relayed to Nisa while she was growing up. She saw hints here and there, as she was best friends with the brother under Berkan Arslan. They were best friends for as long as she could remember and while over the years, they would have their friendship tested by fights and petty disagreements, nothing would fuel the rage inside the healer as much as his older brother, Berkan. However, that did not come until later in her life. Nisa grew up in a very loving home, her parent’s cared very much for her and when Nisa wasn’t in school or with friends, she was being taught the business of the flower shop. She had always had a soft spot for plants, making arrangements and being creative. However, eventually her parent’s told her that she would be taking over ownership as to keep the shop in their family. And for Nisa, that was something she always wanted.
When Nisa was in her early teen years, she was told of the future that was held for her. Everything in her life felt like it was being shattered. While she knew what the Asena’s entailed being so close with an Arslan, she never thought that was the life she was going to have to live. Though, in time, Nisa was quick to come with terms with it. Her gentle touch with flowers could easily be applied to that of the Asenas and healing those injured. However, she couldn’t be one until she was twenty-two years old. So, while also learning the trades of owning a flower shop, taking her own passions into hands with being a florist as well, in the evenings, she learned from her mother how to be the best Șifaci that she could. Nisa quickly grew to love it, she had tender hands, a kind soul. Not much angered the woman in her growing years.
However, tensions with the eldest Arslan grew. With having to take care of his own family, she understood the pain and grief that the entire family was suffering. As much as she could understand, considering her own parent’s were very much alive and well. She didn’t think much of it, for many years, but the two of them constantly butted heads. At times, she wished she wasn’t so close to his brother, because it meant that she had to see Berkan all the time. He infuriated her beyond belief, but they managed to stay out of each other’s way more often than not, when it could be helped. Nisa did her best to stay busy, making her friends, living her own life while staying loyal to the Asenas and her future as a Șifaci.
By the time she turned twenty-two, she was ready for the duties that came with being a Șifaci. College didn’t really appeal to her, knowing that her future was set for her. For as long as she was able to work, she worked at the flower shop. The business was to be promised to her when she turned thirty years old. In the meantime, she worked as a florist, tidying up her skills and training new employees as they came their way. It wasn’t until she was twenty-six that things took a turn for the worse. Finding out her mother had cancer felt like the worst day of her life. The doctor’s said she had many years left, but it was on the day they found out, they signed the business over to Nisa. It was hers, in case anything happened to her mother.
Over the last three years, Nisa has been caring for her sick mother, as her taught abilities have led her to do. It pains her, to see the woman that was so kind and gentle be in so much pain. She takes her role as a Șifaci very seriously, even before her mother was riddled sick. And while she is still hanging on, Nisa fears every single day that she is going to wake up to her mother gone. She keeps people close to her, regardless of the fear of losing them. The florist is the type of person to tell people she loves them, even when they don’t deserve it. She doesn’t want anyone to leave the life that live without knowing that Nisa cared for them, unless that person was Berkan Arslan, because his personality was infuriating to the brunette.
