Nell is one of the "Three Great Queens" who founded the Golden Horizon pride with Micail. Her childhood was tough, just like all the other lionesses in her former pride. They were pushed to their limits during hunts, and punished with starvation when they were unsuccessful. She grew up trying to form few bonds, as she had to see a lioness close to her die of exhaustion or malnutrition more than once, and this always weighed heavily on her heart. So when she woke up one night in time to see Bombom sneaking away, she didn't think twice and followed the lioness who was a little older than herself.
Living a nomadic life wasn't easy, especially since Bombom wasn't good at hunting, but compared to her previous life... She felt like she was in paradise. Nell excelled at hunting from a very young age, so she managed to get food for both of them during that time, until they met Micail. It was quite a surprise to meet the lion, as she had never seen one like him (and much less that strange little winged lizard that accompanied him!), and her curiosity was what made them both approach him. The conversation between the three went very well, and in the end they both decided to accompany him.
Starting a new pride, in a completely different way than she had known, made Nell's heart heal. She learned to form strong bonds again, and became almost inseparable from Bombom, and also from Caladia, the dragonic lioness who arrived a few days after they settled in their territory.
For many years, she was one of the pride's main hunters, leading many of the hunts. Today, after having lived for a whole decade, she still hunts, but she focuses more on teaching the lionesses who are in the learning phase.
