Basic Information
Nigel was born in England on march 23, 1996. He remained there until the age
of three, when he and his parents moved to America. Leader and head of Sector V, Nigel is a workaholic bald British kid who does not put complete trust in anyone but his teammates. He is bald due to an unexplained event involving the Delightful Children from Down the Lane. Throughout the series, his girlfriend is Lizzie Devine, but their relationship was ended when she explained that she was tired of him always putting KND priorities over her.
He is the only operative on his team without a sibling, though he shares a
close bond with his female cousin Numbuh 10. His last name, Uno, is Spanish for the number one. He is easily annoyed by distractions, occasionally has a short temper, and is somewhat paranoid. A running joke after an initial episode is that he has a very big butt. He is often embarrassed by this when his underwear is revealed in several episodes and he is naked in one. His primary conflict is with Father, later revealed to be his uncle, whose main goal is consistently to destroy the Kids Next Door and Numbuh 1 altogether.
His own father was once the KND's greatest agent, Numbuh Zero, and was
briefly recommissioned to help the KND fight against Grandfather and his legion of Senior Citizombies. Nigel's mother is Numbuh 999, the first girl operative in the seventh age of the Kids Next Door, which is revealed in the series finale. Throughout the series, he shows great leadership skills, resourceful thinking, and devotion to the KND and kids' rights in general, which ultimately results in him being selected to join the Galactic Kids Next Door, as detailed in the series finale Operation: I.N.T.E.R.V.I.E.W.S. and hinted at throughout the final episodes leading up to it. It appears that he stays at the GKND for at least 30 years. Whether he aged or not is never shown. (Possibility) Nigel marries Rachel a.k.a. Numbuh 362 because in Operation F.U.T.U.R.E. a child or grandchild shared Nigel's looks and Rachel hair color (blond). Certain aspects of his character design and personality seem to be based on the character Jean-Luc Picard of the USS Enterprise in the television show Star Trek: The Next Generation , such as his red shirt, British accent, his dedication to his work and his friends, and obvious baldness.
Character History
Nigel is famous for being a bit of a showoff. He is a huge hit with the fangirls. Just search his name on Deviantart and see for yourself. His girlfriend Lizzie broke up with him a while into the series, and in the next episode afterword, he acted as if he had a rootbeer hangover. I don't blame him, really.
