Nicholas "Nicky" Michael Roth, also known as The Player, are one of the main protagonists of the Hello Neighbor franchise. He is the only playable character in the main game (if not including the game's Hide and Seek Prequel).
Personality[]
Nicky as a child was very introverted and not your average teenager. Instead of playing sports and doing other things, he stayed at home picking locks and trying to find out about the town's history. He had 3 friends, but he cared more about finding Aaron and Mya than them, which causes them to get annoyed at him. He's smart when it comes to creating stuff. He has made things like an electro-magnet and a combination of a periscope and binoculars.
Nicky is scared of the dark, as we learn in Hello Neighbor: Buried Secrets. He has nightmares about the dark constantly. He also seems to be claustrophobic, as he freaks out when he gets pushed in the washing machine door in the basement.
Nicky always wants to do stuff on his own but sometimes screws up and usually ends up almost being captured by Theodore.
Appearance[]
Nicky Roth is a Disney-Pixar styled character (who had gotten evicted from his apartment at some point in the game).In his present day look, Nicky appears as a man in (possibly) his 30s. He wears a fainted-yellow/light-brown, short-sleeved flannel over a white shirt that has long red sleeves, as well as blue, slightly ripped jeans that end just under his knees, red shoes, and a wrist watch. He always has a tired expression while in the beginning and the end of the game. As a child, Nicky roughly looks the same, with the exception with his clothes. As a child, he wears a blue shirt that appears to have a shark on it and a pair of brown/orange shorts with a yellow/golden apple. He also wear a green cap and blue/orange sneakers.
Role[]
Nicky is the playable character in the game. He can do anything that the player wishes to his likings. The player is able to sprint, jump and crouch, as well as interact with doors and hide in closets to evade the Neighbor. He also has the ability to throw objects, and if the throw button is held longer, objects can be thrown with enough force to knock the Neighbor down. Upon completing the Fear levels, he also gains an invisibility power, activated by crouching without moving, which allows him to avoid being caught by the Neighbor unless he does it in the Neighbor's line of sight. He also unlocks a double jump, and can obtain the ability to push the Neighbor over once per chase if he catches up to them.
The player cannot survive long falls, as if they drop from too high a height, the protagonist will gasp, the screen cuts to black and a crunching sound is heard, and then the player wakes up back in their own house.
