The Physical
Nimbus, given that N inhabits the body of a normal human-faced deer of the Endless Forest, still mostly looks like a human-faced deer. However, N is noticably paler and N's coat more desaturated than the normal coloration; not quite white without the aid of magic, but will always be somewhat closer to a very light grey or a very dull white -- the grey-and-white pelt expresses his coloring very nicely, but then desaturate *that* a bit, too. Nimbus has large, heavy-lidded pale blue-grey eyes, and like the rest of N's face, they betray very little of N's feelings. N is very unexpressive, until you begin to learn the very subtle twists of N's face. N generally forgets to eat and so is very skinny, and even as an adult is short (albeit, not mini-short). However, most people who meet Nimbus would assume N is a little heavy -- due to N's fur being volumous, puffy, and curly, disguising his actual frame and retaining his natural cute-cloud look. N's antlers are the key antlers, and he doesn't do much with them, but the rounded, curly bits suit him well. Around N's ankles and legs are little tufts of cloud, which can expand outward as N likes. When N air-dances or air-sits, for example, those tufts become a full cloud N can rest on.
When N takes other shapes, it is because Nimbus has exited N's deer body and become a cloud again, so N looks like a little, puffy white cloud. Nimbus likely hides the deer body somewhere in N's center of mass. Best not dwell on the physics there.

The Past
Nimbus's full history is largely unknown; Nimbus is not, after all, a reliable narrator. Still, there are some events that concretely happened, just given the physical evidence. N was a cloud, who drifted over to the Endless Forest and decided to try the shape of a deer because it looked nice or significant (or some reason; N does stuff for N's reasons). However, N ended up drifting too far down, and for fear of dissipating like a morning fog, entered an empty deer-body that was lying around. Nimbus is not stuck in the body, but is stuck at an elevation no higher than the canopy, which poses a risk to him if he leaves the body for long or in good weather.
