||
| − | ===Pre-Series=== |
||
| − | Nabu was from the richest family of [[Andros]]. After clearing up some misunderstandings with [[Riven]] and showing him some battle moves, Riven inquired Nabu about these techniques. Nabu tells him that as a child, he had grown up on an island with no one his age and therefore lacked friends. For companionship he turned to the security guards there, spent time with them and learned all of their tricks. Though it was a time of loneliness which was similar to [[Aisha]]'s childhood. |

||
| − | Nabu is first mentioned at the end of the episode "''[[Winx Club - Episode 309|The Heart and the Sword]]''", when [[Aisha]] sadly reports to her friends that her parents have set up an arranged marriage for her. Nabu first appears at the end of the episode "''[[Winx Club - Episode 311|A Trap for Fairies]]''", where he finally finds Aisha. |
||
| − | |||
| − | He later returns in "''[[Winx Club - Episode 318|Valtor's Box]]''", where he listens to a conversation between the [[Winx (Group)|Winx]] girls until [[Stella]] reveals his hiding spot. Later in the episode, he decides to offer the [[Winx]] his assistance in fighting [[Valtor]], who plans to steal a [[Agador Box|magical item]] at the museum. Nabu does not want to reveal who he really is, so he tells the Winx that his name is Ophir. The Winx let him come along on the mission, even though they are not sure if they can trust him. However, when Valtor threatens Aisha, Nabu gets in the way and is captured by Valtor. The Winx are forced to give Valtor the magic box he came to steal in order to save Nabu. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Later, when the Winx went to the [[Golden Kingdom]] to obtain the [[Water Star]]s, Nabu was a stow away on their ship. Aisha discovered him, and since the group were uncertain of his trustworthiness based on their previous encounter, they put shackles on him. During the mission, Nabu and Aisha get to know each other a little better. Nabu helped the Winx fight off the guards of the Red Tower, and was the only one who did not get knocked out. [[Riven]] showed up shortly afterwards, and he and Nabu get into a fight due to [[Riven]] misinterpreting the situation and mistakenly believing that Nabu was trying to steal [[Musa]] from him. [[Sky]] and [[Timmy]] break up the fight, and the misunderstanding is cleared up. When the [[Trix]] later attack the group while the Winx (except [[Bloom]]) are inside the [[Crystal Labyrinth]], Nabu at one point easily defeats [[Darcy]]. |

However, Nabu was forced to leave when his security guards showed up to bring him home. When he meets with Aisha again near the end of the episode, he explains the situation and finally reveals his true identity. He tells her that when a marriage was arranged between him and [[Aisha]], he initially did not want to marry her and ran away from home in order to find out what she was really like, and therefore, began to secretly keep an eye on the [[Winx]] girls for awhile. He used a fake name, Ophir, in order to conceal his identity. After the clarification, Aisha asked about his true feelings and he confesses that he has fallen in love with her, and apologizes for lying to her. Aisha reciprocates his feelings. Later, Aisha and Nabu meet each others' parents, who have realized that they should not have forced their children to follow a tradition that went against their wishes. However, they are also pleased that destiny brought them together anyway, but decide that a marriage can wait. The episode ends with the [[Winx]] welcoming Nabu into the club. |

Once Diana has left, Nabu uses his magic to weaken the magical roots she used to tie up the Winx, allowing them to regain their strength and transform. Nabu and the Specialists go to the [[Gardenia]] park to confront Diana, but Diana easily takes out most of the Specialists, only Nabu being able to put up a fight due to him being the only one with magical powers. Nabu manages to resist Diana's attacks, but is unable to do anything but watch as Diana and the [[Amazon Fairies]] kidnap the Specialists and take them away to Diana's kingdom. |

He soon finds out that the cause of the illness was that Duman's magical energy had gotten unstable. However, soon after this discovery, Duman transforms into a monster and attacks the other specialists, and ends up capturing Nabu.

Aisha attempts to use the last gift of destiny to revive him, but [[Ogron]] takes it from her and wastes it on a flower. It is unknown if he died because Aisha attempted to use the last Gift of Destiny on him, or he is in a deep slumber as [[Morgana|Queen Morgana]] said.

Seasons 3 and 4
Season 4
Personality
Despite his isolated childhood, Nabu is very social and friendly. He is upbeat, fun and enjoys life to its fullest. But he is also daring and intelligent, seeing as he ran away from home because he disapproved of the arranged marriage and even located Aisha and spied on her to know what she was like.
Nabu is a patient, kind, honest, understanding and rational person; he also does not get jealous. He shares these traits with Helia and both mediate between their friends who are having conflicts with their significant other, and especially Riven, whose personality is the opposite. Unlike Helia however, he is not shy. His patience is demonstrated when the Winx (especially Aisha) and Specialists were suspicious of him because he snunk onto their spaceship. He patiently waited for the group to trust him and did not push them to do so. Nabu is also very true to himself and sticks to his beliefs, which included marrying someone he loved.
He is capable in adapting to situations and is a quick and rational thinker. Shown when he quickly thought of an excuse when the girls caught him spying on them and when he easily removed the shackles (due to the group's suspicions) and protected Aisha from a winged centaur. Nabu's language of love is words of affirmation; he encouraged Riven to show his love for Musa through words. The complete opposite of Helia's.
Nabu is also very selfless and caring, seeing as he had sacrificed his own life for the Earth Fairies.
In the comics, he is shown to be naive, as a result as his isolated childhood, as shown with his relationship with Helisia and how he is even engaged to her, despite already dating Aisha, much to her chagrin.

Nabu has demonstrated his range, versatility and power in magic. His true source of power was never stated, but has shown to affect all sorts of materials, objects and even people. He can disappear, create clones of himself, solidify materials such as plants, form defensive shields, manipulate and transform objects, strengthen a car engine and many more.
Alongside his mystical abilities, he also knows self defense tricks which he learned from the security guards. He applies these tactics with magic, further demonstrating Nabu's great range of skills.
