NIX

Nix is a character from the new Star Wars Outlaws video game. Nix was a merqaal companion of Kay Vess during the Imperial Era. Nix was close to Vess; she was his motivation, his best friend, his only family, and as such, he protected her fiercely. Where she went, Nix went. While Nix appeared "cute," he could turn feral and vicious when he needed to be. Often, Nix's mood reflected Vess'.
