Nova Tsukuyomi
When you talk about ideals... a plan in which nobody gets hurt would clearly be the best... But that's... mere rubbish.
~ Nova

Nova The Mighty

You see, The Muse has the ability to control people's minds. While my psychokinesis grants me dominance over physical matter. Those are the two building blocks of life. I now control both. I have become omnipotent! With this power, I can control adepts all over the world. Both adepts and humans are all weaklings compared to me now... Under my rule, I will protect the weak and give them peace. That's right... I am the ultimate ruler! The Heavenly Emperor! I am Sumeragi.

~ Nova to Gunvolt
You're unbelievable. The fact that you would choose a young lady over world peace... You're a fool, Gunvolt! In Sumeragi's name, I will deliver my divine justice upon you! My will is already written in the stars!

Summary

Nova Tsukuyomi is the primary antagonist of Azure Striker Gunvolt. He was an orphan raised by Sumeragi as a test subject for Project Gunvolt. Though he failed to become the Azure Striker he so greatly desired, almost dying in the process, he obtained a far greater Septima: Psychokinesis. With his talent in both politics and battle, Nova rose through the ranks of Sumeragi and became the head of Project Muse. Project Muse was a plan to use the Septima of the same name to effectively put all Adepts in the world under the control of Sumeragi as a plan to keep them from destroying the world at the cost of the lives of Adepts. After his death, his ideals echoed throughout the rest of the series, proving that Adepts would bring chaos and destruction without the order he was going to bring to the world by merging the power of Joule with himself.

Powers and Stats

Tier: At least 7-A, up to at least High 6-A with Joule's power and the Star Dragon Satellite | At least High 6-A, far higher with Joule's power

Name: Nova Tsukuyomi, "The Mighty"

Origin: Azure Striker Gunvolt

Gender: Male

Age: 14

Classification: Adept

Powers and Abilities: 

Attack Potency: Mountain level+ (Publicly the most powerful Adept in Azure Striker Gunvolt[1]. His Psychokinesis Septima is superior to Gunvolt's Azure Striker in sheer battle capability[2]. He was able to casually defeat Viper, albeit he wasn't having his power improved by a Glaive, and with most of his powers being sealed by his Glaives. The primary reason why Zonda did not make her move against Nova due to his power- whose fake clones were comparable to Eden members with Mirror Shards), up to at least Multi-Continent level with Joule's power (The machine Joule was hooked up to gives Nova full control of her powers- giving him the full power of the Muse at his whim) and the Star Dragon Satellite (Was able to command the Star Dragon Satellite’s laser gun- something seen in his second phase, without needing to transform[3]) | At least Multi-Continent level (Gunvolt states that he was an Adept leagues above all others and attributes it to the true power of his Septima, not the Muse's, meaning it must have been a substantial boost to contribute to his power), far higher with Joule's power (completely absorbed Joule for a greater connection to the Muse's powers- and should be at least comparable to a full powered Anthem)

Speed: Relativistic+ travel speed with FTL+ combat speed and reactions (Casually defeated Viper, who was stated by Jota to fight at lightspeed just before. In Azure Striker Gunvolt 3, kept up with Kirin.) | Sub-Relativistic+ movement speed with FTL+ combat speed and reactions

Lifting Strength: Class M (Can knock Gunvolt off the Firmament space station with a simple breeze of his Air Manipulation, should be far stronger than Milas due to wielding the entirity of the Muse as supposed to a simple fraction of it.)

Striking Strength: Mountain level+ (can charge into Gunvolt with a tackle), up to at least Multi-Continent level with Joule's power | At least Multi-Continent level (Uses his fists in combat against Gunvolt), far higher with Joule's power

Durability: Mountain level+, up to at least Multi-Continent level with Joule's power, far higher with forcefields (Gunvolt can't damage his forcefield without his Skills, even with Septimal Surge) | Mountain level+, up to at least Multi-Continent level with Joule's power, far higher for his armor and forcefields (Gunvolt is totally unable to damage his armor or forcefields, needing to take down the forcefield to hit a weak point)

Stamina: Athletic (Fought against Gunvolt for an extended period of time)

Range: Hundreds of meters with most of his projectiles, hundreds of kilometers with the Star Dragon satellite, which can fire beams down to the planet[4].

Standard Equipment: His three Glaives; Ame no Murakumo, Yatagarasu and Kurohyō. The Star Dragon satellite, which he can control entirely with his mind to fire lasers.

Intelligence: Above Average, he was able to easily rise through the ranks of Sumergi and is highly efficient in combat. Leads the Muse Project.

Weaknesses: Arrogant to a fault and doesn't like to use his Glaives unless he has to. May not have access to The Muse's full power | Same as before, and is even more prideful then before. If his drones, Panther Force and Raven Force, are both being attacked at once his forcefield will go down, though the two drones need to constantly be attacked for him to remain vulnerable

Notable Attacks and Techniques

After failing to control the implanted artificial Azure Striker in Project: Gunvolt, Nova Tsukuyomi would be given an even more powerful artificial Septima in exchange, Psychokinesis, said to be the "ultimate" Septima in combat capability, and theorized to be the "original" Septima that all others stem from. Unlike many others, Nova and his Septima was so powerful that it took not only one, but three separate glaives to seal his power off, ranked him as one of the three S+ class Adepts. Even then, he is capable of fighting with his Septima sealed to the point of being superior to the vast majority of Adepts. Combined with the power of the Muse's mental based powers, Nova claims himself to be "omnipotent" with his Septima's ability to control all matter and energy.

When assuming his weaponized form, Nova commands three pieces of technology with his powers, his two artificial Glaives, Panther and Raven Force, as well as the Star Dragon Satellite, which fires "divine lightning" down upon his foes.

  • Cybernetic Field: The Muse powers this mighty forcefield that deflects all attacks that dare harm the user, sending them back as needles of Psycho energy. To disarm the field, one must be able to affect Lumen to the point of at least temporarily disabling this barrier.
  • Dash: Nova flies at his opponent at full force.
NovaRam
  • Psycho Ring: Nova fires rings of energy at his enemy.
  • Psycho Bombing: Nova dashes above his enemies, raining down energy blasts.
NovaBomb
  • Psycho Shot: Nova flies into the air and fires energy.
NovaShot
  • Psycho Fusion: Known as Mind Melder in English, Nova creates energy in X and + shapes around his foes several times.

  • Cybernetic Field: Functionally the same as before, but to disable it, one must attack both Raven Force and Panther Force at the same time on a constant basis to open up the shield and have a chance at destroying the core.
NovaDis
  • Divine Wind: Nova commands Raven Force to blow the enemy off the platform they're fighting on.
NovaRaven
  • Darkness Claw: Nova commands Panther Force to create a large shockwave of energy.
NovaPanther
  • Divine Lightning: Nova has the Star Dragon satellite fire lasers at the target. Despite the name, this attack is not electricity based.
NovaLightning
  • Double Lasers: Nova commands both of his artificial Glaives to shoot laser attacks at his enemy.
NovaDouble
  • Fist of God: Nova uses his four arms to attack the enemy.
NovaFist

Emperor and God, sent from galaxies afar to punish fools like this! Clamator Aetherus!

~ Clamator Aetherus's Haiku
  • Clamator Aethereus: A move Nova uses after chanting Nova creates a giant ball fire and slowly has it descend on the area his enemy is in. This attack is able to easily one shot the likes of Gunvolt.
