An exceptionally rare electromagnetic anomaly, the Nova were discovered when the Enjineau attempted to manipulate and store data in self-contained plasma. By encoding information onto quantum particle networks within microscopic hyper-dense neutron clusters, a new form of conscious life emerged: the Nova.

The fledgling lifeforms were given corporeal bodies in the form of mechanical regulators which contain and focus the Nova’s energy. 

Nova are composed entirely of concentrated plasma housed within an integrated artificial vessel, allowing them to interact with solid matter. A sphere of energy-emitting plasma is contained at the core of their mechanical system which the Nova are able to fluctuate and alter at will. When struck with high-energy particles, the Nova are able to redirect the energy into focused externalized beams.
