History:
Nikola Eisenstein Aburame was born to a man named “Johann Eisenstein”, a foreigner from a distant land, and “Hinata Aburame”, a woman who hailed from the Aburame clan of Konohagakure no Sato, or the Hidden Leaf Village, one of the five great ninja villages in the ninja world. The two reasons why Nikola’s father, Johann, was accepted by the elders of the Aburame clan was because he had a great deal of wealth which the elders realized could be quite useful to the clan’s future prosperity and because Nikola’s mother, Hinata, was quite taken with Johann and refused to give up on their imminent union. After that, in due course, Nikola was brought into the world as part of the newest generation of the Aburame clan members. As per usual with the rest of his predecessors in the Aburame clan, Nikola was also offered to the exclusive Aburame insects to use as a host for their containment and continued propagation in accordance with the relevant Aburame clan traditions.
This was where Nikola’s superlative talents, especially for the Aburame clan exclusive ninja techniques as well as his exceptionally high affinity towards the various Aburame insects began to come to light, and along with the rest of the various superior mental and physical advantages that he had inherited from both his parents, they made him a promising prospect right from childhood. So, his parents and the rest of the elders of the Aburame clan began to put Nikola through advanced training to acquaint him with the proper usage of not only the basic kikaichū that every Aburame used, but also the more specialized and unique Aburame insects (i.e., the bikōchū, kidaichū, and shōkaichū) as well along with the basic theory and protocols regarding the employment of the relevant Aburame clan jutsu for them.
Naturally, since he was provided with this wealth of knowledge so early on and due to his innate, insatiable curiosity, Nikola became obsessed with not only the ninja arts, but also studying and manipulating the various types of Aburame insects as well as with the various Aburame clan exclusive jutsu. Thus, time marched on for Nikola wherein he went from being a mere boy to a young man and during this time, he was not only trained in the universal ninja arts and the set of Aburame clan exclusive arts, but also in various non-ninja related areas of knowledge/expertise such as high society etiquette, linguistics, fine arts, and so on in accordance to what would be expected from any heir to a wealthy family. Alas, this relatively peaceful and uneventful period of time was marred by certain unsavory occurrences which left Nikola with twin phobias which still haunt him in the present, those being his acrophobia for heights greater than 100 m and his caniphobia for bestial dogs and wolves of any sort.
Apart from this, during this time, he also acquired most of the rest of the obsessive mad scientist personality that he has in the present as well as his unique personal quirks such as his incorrigible hedonism and his obsession with all things jelliform and fluffy. So, Nikola went about his life from one year to the next until his 32nd birthday when his parents finally decided to make him actually attend the formal Ninja Academy instead of simply leaving him to his own devices to research and study various subjects of interest to him as he saw fit. The reason, of course, was that they wanted him to finally take his place among the Konoha ninja army ranks, despite him being well over the usual age for a freshly minted Genin rank ninja. So, to prevent his parents and rest of the Aburame clan from interrupting his auto-didactic studies any further than they already had, Nikola allowed them to sign him up for the Konoha Ninja Academy.
Afterwards, he progressed through it as fast as he possibly could, all the while ignoring the jeering of his classmates and some of his teachers at just how old he was compared to the rest of his peers. Thus, after only a single year in the Academy, Nikola graduated at the top of his specific class thanks to the fact that he had already mastered the basics of all the areas of expertise taught to Academy Students and thus, he had been given a head start of sorts. Once this phase of his training was over, Nikola took his place among the Konoha ninja army ranks as a freshly minted, albeit over-aged, Genin ninja. From here, it remains to be seen what will happen to Nikola and where his life will take him, but it is sure to be an interesting ride all the way.
Personality (this remains the same both in and out of battle):
Basic Psyche
Like most other scientific types, Nikola also likes to be forward-thinking but prefers to operate under the radar as far as possible since he is highly intolerant of any outside interference with any of his activities. Additionally, like all others of his kind, Nikola is always a dominant, highly self-confident, objective-minded visionary who always has grandiose goals. Thus, he prefers to spend much of his time pondering how to achieve those goals, but still, due to his innately introverted nature, he rarely if ever likes to tell anyone about said plans. Apart from that, like most others of his kind, Nikola is also very detail-oriented while also preferring to see the bigger picture of any given situation and how the various details fit into it.
Furthermore, like others of his kind, he loves to immerse himself in whatever project completely and frequently tends to lose track of time and other obligations as well while doing it. Beyond that, he never likes to run away from a challenge unless it is too far beyond his capacity to provide a solution, and in trying to resolve said challenge or problem, he very often prefers to look for a solution that reaches far beyond the original parameters of the original problem. Lastly, he is almost always unnervingly calm and often likes to have several equally efficient plans with several backups for each plan and even exit strategies if the situation goes south and even likes to modify each one to suit the situational flow.
Though Nikola has all these strengths stated above, since he has developed into quite the stereotypical mad scientist, he now has many of the multifarious unsavory traits one would expect from individuals of this type. That said, it is noteworthy that he is not exactly identical to many other stereotypical examples of this archetype since he does not bother with monologuing when interacting with hero types, since he does not bother trying to achieve world domination, because he is highly disingenuous in thought, word, and deed, and due to the fact that he always prefers to work within the “system” instead of outside it while also using it to his advantage to protect himself and his ongoing and ever-burgeoning mad science research interests from interference. The only other flaws he has are his obsession with all things and entities which are fluffy and jelliform to any significant degree, his incorrigible hedonism, and his obsession with high aesthetics.
