Niylah is a recurring protagonist in the CW show, The 100.
She was portrayed by Jessica Harmon.
Description[]
Niylah is a Grounder who has her own trading post. Although she is alone at first, she will join Wonkru and follow and fight alongside her friends as the series progresses.
History[]
She first appears in season three, when Clarke has left her people to live on her own and goes to Niylah's house. She trades her Ark bracelet and also has sex with her. Later, Niylah is beaten up by Roan and a Grounder who is looking for Wanheda and who know she's been here. When A.L.I.E. takes control of everyone's minds, Niylah hides Clarke and her friends in her tavern, reluctantly and suspicious. She is one of the few people who has not been chipped.
In the fourth season, she now works at Arkadia, at the bar and as an assistant for the sick. She is by Octavia's side when Ilian burns the entire camp, shocking the Arkadians. Niylah also brews a Jobi Nuts tea for Jasper and his group who are planning to kill themselves before the Praimfaya. She, however, joins the group in the Second Dawn bunker in which she will live for six years.
In season five, Niylah helps take over the hydroponic farms stolen by Skaikru and witnesses Octavia's rise as Blodreina. She survives the battle against the Eligius Prisoners and helps the wounded board the Gagarin after McCreary drops missiles that will wipe out the Shallow Valley. She then goes into cryogenic sleep while the Earth is once again habitable.
In season six, she assists Abby in healing Kane and wakes up Octavia and trains with her to fight. Later, she helps Abby wake Kane out of cryogenic sleep and move him around the body of a host in Sanctum. Next, she arms herself with Indra and a group waiting outside the Eligius IV airlock, preparing for the Primes' attack. They are shocked when they see Gaia, Raven and Madi, threatened by Clarke, who pretends to be Josephine, Simone and the Sanctum guards. Eventually Clarke betrays them and floats them and Niylah helps free Madi, possessed by Sheidheda.
In season seven, Niylah is part of the group that goes in search of Bellamy and Echo. She follows them to Bardo where she meets Bill Cadogan and reunites with Echo, Diyoza and Octavia. At the end of the series, she participates in the battle against the Disciples of Cadogan and transcends with her friends to finally live in peace.
