Nimrod

Nimrod is a (Non-Binary) member of the mysterious species that Surface revolves around. He was found by Miles Barnett when he was still in his egg. Miles hatched him, took care of him, and trained him with the helpa of his friend Phil.

He is completely loyal to Miles and even saves his life when he was bitten by another one of his species. A side-effect of this healing is that Miles received some of his abilities (electrical surges, primal communication with others of the species, and also possibly self-healing and swimming under water).

He also helps Miles, when he is searching for Caitlin in his quest of saving her from the tsunami, which he achieves. He meets Laura and Rich later, when the tsunami comes and they are all together, when they are contemplating the disaster caused by the tsunami they narrowly were able to save themselves from.
