One mystery that comes into most NiGHTS fans are about the heads of the First Rank Nightmarens. Nobody acctually knows what are under them, or if there are acctually anything under them.

There are many theories out there on what those jester like tassels are. What are your theories? Anything under them, or just their brains?

Nightmaren aren't human or even physical beings, so I think that what you see is what you get.
Going by what you can see in NiGHTS' cuffs and collar, Nightmaren seem to be hollow, so I think that there's nothing underneath.
Also, in NiGHTS into Dreams, the horns sort of wobble as NiGHTS flies in the intro.
If they were proper horns, they would not move, and if they were fabric, they would most likely flow a lot more.
So that's my opinion, what's yours? Smile

I personally think that those things on the First Rank Nightmarens' heads are not hats, that it's the Nightmaren equivalent to hair.

Yet I like seeing NiGHTS and Reala with hair in fan art, I think it looks pretty cool. If they were hats, I would imagine them as swim caps, since swim caps can cover hair quite nicely.

You could be right on that in a sense of an idea that already existed in a rare, hentai NiGHTS comic. I didn't realize this until today but look closely at the hat on the cover. Her hair is merged with her hat! It's pretty creative I believe. <3 ^_^

Doujinshi are hardly official since anyone can make one, but is that a Merged NiGHTS, or NiGHTS by himself?

I can't really say for NiGHTS by himself. In that comic, they make NiGHTS look like an enigma because they mostly show him as a silhoutte. But you gotta admit it was really close to Pickle Fairy's idea. ^_^'

The short answer is a Merged NiGHTS I believe. :\

I always thought NiGHTS, Reala, and other Nightmarens wore circius-like hats. I always imagined NiGHTS having short black hair, somewhat like Harry Potter.

Actually, that's what I thought myself, only his hair is a mystery. Shocked (Such mysteriousness! Very Happy )
