The Stardust System
"Nova" does not have a single cohesive identity, but is instead a
collection of people all living inside of the same body and brain.
Medically, this is termed Dissociative Identity Disorder, or
non-medically as Plurality. We typically do not forus upon this
fractured element of us in non-plurality-focused spaces, but we make
no secret of it. Like any collection of people, we can talk, argue,
discuss, and plan amongst ourselves. We all have different hobbies,
wants, and dreams for the future.
