#nexomon metta

(nexomon spoilers?)

...Wait a minute.

Look at the designs on his ribbons.

They're all the others! They're shaped like the other children of Omnicron, on the ribbon for their element! And then the black ribbon has the diamond pattern seen on Omnicron himself!

He's all of them, he's every one of the other Primordial Tyrants and more! And this is reflected in not only his design, but his moveset too - I figured out that one a while ago but I never noticed the pictures on the ribbons before!

And now I want to write some stuff about him. There's so much potential there.

Might follow up with sources and further explanation if I can be bothered (most of my sources are from the wiki).

@anacharafan this is your fault you got me thinking about him

[glitchven]

So yall know how post N1 you can find the last nexomite in james's house?

Ding ding ding, Metta redesign again (last time hopefully)

Before you ask, he does have his goofy ass tail ribbon things, I could NOT be bothered-

Extra human ver under cut

This isn't as much as a general redesign as it is a fic-specific design. Himb

[player-1]

Me, looking through the Nexomon wiki by chance and finding a simple concept art for a "arcane" rabbit: -Wait, what do you mean this is going to be in Nexomon 3? Also me: Huh, some of them look similar to some N1 'mon (with a few exceptions). And knowing the theme of past consequences coming back to bite the future in the butt, I have a feeling a certain bowling ball might have a impact in the newest game (if it's connected to the MCR/N1 resurrection theory). Still, even if it's going to be in 3d, the designs look really cute this way :) [This is just a few examples, so feel free to look through the wiki (and read the descriptions more easily)]

Also also me: -GNOB!?!? IT'S BEEN ANOTHER THOUSAND YEARS!! >:D

Fic Update, Part 9 of 'The Queen of Light' N:E AU - Metta of the Unknown Arcane

I totally forgot to post a link when I started this work and for the second chapter, so, uh, better late than never? Chapter three just went up!

Summary:

The seventh child of King Omnicron, Metta, knew first-hand how much could change in the span of a thousand years. After being freed from his Netherworld prison and revived, James assumes that he’ll be able to manage ‘readjusting to life’ just fine. After all, he survived being on his own for centuries, built the first resurrection machine, revived his fallen siblings, and reached the position of Nexolord, all while remaining hidden from humans. That was the wrong assumption to make.

Petition to give a title for Metta being :

"Metta of the Prismatic Light"

I- I missed that during my first play-through... ._.

This made me chuckle lol...

[tulipsnflowers]

Introducing.... Children of Omnicron tyrant form redesigns!

I mostly combined n1 and n2 + Just some small changes I like, and I made them more animal I guess.. ? All of them individually, as well as a silly height chart and thoughts below

Just some thoughts here:

Grunda-

Grunda's colors are a bit confusing because they changed his elemtal colors in between, so I made them the same as Metta's

I gave him lil colored spikes to spice it up AND because Nadine has them, I figured it might be cute if that's why Ventra has them,cuz Grunda is Cool. Not that she'd admit it

Ventra-

MORE RAPTOR THANK GOD. She's so weirdly humanoid??? Ross said he should be avian, that is not avian, she is raptor

I know she has golden eyes but like... She's the only one with them? It causes a bit of a color bleeding problem because she has an eye ribbon, but I'm sure it's fine

Fona-

I removed his emo phase. Seriously, why is he the only one without white?

Also Metta's ribbon is red and his glow is red but we made his lava... yellow? Quickly fixed that one-

I gave him that horse blank thingy for spicing up- He's the more horse-like between him and Deena

Nara-

I made her antlers more Deer-like. Because my friend thinks they're ears. So. Antlers.

There, she KINDA has a 3rd flower, only outlined. But it's there. Oh and that under her eye is a scar. Because she has it according to me, because it's something she had in n1 and then not in n2 so I got creative

I also made her paws white to be more hoof-like. Just overall small things I like

Arqua-

WHERE DID HER BACK FINS GO IN N2?????? She lost her legs. The heck-

Other than that they changed her colors quite a bit, even if not noticeably, otherwise I combined the 2 designs to the best of my ability

OH and Metta's ribbon is so diluted for her. The heck, her water is so much brighter-

Luxa-

So originally I made him bigger. I realized Metta would be a literal spot on the canvas, so uh, just a touch smaller

I like the n1 one more- again where do fins keep going?? I liked his dragon-esk features!

I used Metta's ribbon colors, but I made the purple just a bit brighter

Metta-

Him and his forms from here, though I haven't thought about them much so up for interpretation

Mostly took ribbon colors and changed them, because they're all very desaturated, if this is his whole gimmick, at least do it right!

Glass ball. Please get a new form in n3

I didn't do Solus because it varies from person to person almost? Like, I certainly don't imagine @/nayvwriter 's Hope and my Ariel (not written yet) to look the same in tyrant form, so it really really depends.

Even small things such as main animal focus can and should change so probably not gonna make one till JV releases n3, at least.

On that note, here's a funny height chart

What are they feeding Luxa?

First post,yeahhh!(╯▽╰)

4/11/24 - Nara

[nayvwriter]

Hmmm... Now I'm getting to the point I don't know who to ask about that aren't the Omnikids.

I could ask for Metta I suppose? Though he is n1

Metta! (N1 spoilers)

I didn't think about him too much until you came along, but now I have too many thoughts.

Metta's a bit of a mystery. He doesn't have a title, he doesn't have a human name (apart from 'the Nexolord'), you never actually fight him if I recall correctly. I don't think you can see his Tyrant form until postgame either, and he just sort of disappears for N2, acknowledged only in a silly background detail calling him "a villain who just sort of disappeared".

But just by looking at his design, there's a lot you can find out. We already know he's the seventh and last child of Omnicron. He also knows moves of the type of every (at the time) element. And his ribbons of every element, with the images of the other Primordial Tyrants on them...

He's everything, every element in one, and it's shown so clearly in his design. I love it. I think he has all the powers of his siblings (and his father? given that his black ribbon portrays Omnicron?)

I also feel like I'm just reiterating my previous metta posts. He may be a bowling ball, but his Tyrant design is really interesting because of the ribbons, which are really the focal point of the design. I think it's a good design, actually, for what it does!

As a character? I don't remember him too well (don't know n1 too well). But he interests me. I think he's probably the furthest under his father's thumb of all of them... but I don't think this was always the case. I think when he was younger, Omnicron worried about his ambition.

I also think Omnicron tried to kill Nara and Metta saved her life (seeing as he has her power). Fun little headcanon I have that has 0 canon basis.

I think he's charismatic, including (especially) to people he doesn't care about. Like humans. Also ambitious, but hasn't quite worked out he can do things without his father. I don't think he cares about humanity at all - he's willing to play by their rules to further his goals, but Nexomon are always his priority.

I headcanon that he can shapeshift into whatever human form he likes and possibly shift his Tyrant form as well. Since I headcanon that their forms are subconscious, this has interesting implications - does this mean that who he is isn't that solid? This makes sense, I think.

I also headcanon that he never had a single human name, but rather changed with each appearance - it would make sense, if he could shapeshift. Also I... didn't want to call him James, but I didn't want to ignore the name entirely, so if I ever get an opportunity I might throw in a 'he went by James once' one-off joke.

Where is he in n2? Hiding, I think. Which has the fun little side effect that he might not get told about gestures at plot of the game until the rest of the world finds out.

Some MORE nexomon doodles

[chaos-era]

slight nsfw joke because i am of the opinion selena would wholeheartedly take advantage of the fact that James, having lived among people for so long, would be cursed with the knowledge of sexual innuendos.

its like psychological warefare.

also wowie first time doodling my james design should do that again the future.

[somepunaboutspace]

I come back every few months to apply a fresh coat of paint on my silly Metta redesign

[player-1]

Nexolord & co. shenanigans (Nexomon 1)

It's honestly been a long time coming, though mostly for the nostalgia and hype for Nexomon 3, but I figured I would look back in the story for any context clues to Nexolord/Metta's personality and abilities mentioned from his siblings, Overseers, or anyone unlucky enough to get on his bad side. Obviously it's going to be a massive list (with some spoilers for to Micromon and Extinction), but here goes!

First off, there's no real timeline on how long Metta's been Nexolord or when he started his Omnicron revival plan into action, but I'll put in a generous estimate of 2-3 years before the main story since he already put way too much fear into people's hearts to go against his authority until MC went ham on his master plan. Same goes for him commissioning MC's parents to build the resurrection machine and revive Omnicron for real.

For Overseers, I would assume that ex-Nexolord Remus originally had Hilda, Khan, and Jack until Metta took the title (and adding five more to spread out his influence). But it's also funny to assume that Metta indirectly assigned his siblings/Champions to a certain Overseer that either complement or conflict their personalities...You know, for shits and giggles. -Fenrir/Fona -> Ivan & Ira (Fiery spirit and moderately irrational) -Nadine/Ventra -> Remus (Unstoppable force vs. Immovable object) -Merida/Arqua -> Hendrick (90% charm and 10% backstabber) -Zetta/Luxa -> Spencer (Snotty rich kid with inflated ego) -Ulrich/Grunda -> Jack (Reliable leader but goes against authority to protect his people (Mostly connected to Netherworld Ulrich)) Nexolord/Metta -> Glacia (Cold-blooded tactician with an extreme ego trip) -Deena/Nara -> Khan ("Subtly" associating the family traitor as a wild savage who only cares about the world and harmony over complete authority...Harsh, even for a kids game)

Metta's childhood in the Frozen Tundra was already going to be shrouded in mystery from the get-go (and obviously exclude flashbacks in-game to avoid spoiling his identity), but he left a pretty deep impact on the three people he interacted with in the past (Glacia, Juliet, and Malk). -First, Juliet's a fangirl for him, so much so that she'll completely ignore his plan to destroy humanity if it meant getting a sliver of attention from him or one-up Glacia as Overseer. She also believes that he's a vampire (either when they were kids or into adulthood) and regularly reads cheesy YA vampire novels that she "accidentally" leaves on her kitchen table for someone to notice. -Glacia is 110% loyal to Metta and will gladly brag to anyone she meets on how she's the most "true and loyal Overseer" there is. Also, she's the only Overseer who's aware that the Champions are Omnicron's children (minus Remus figuring it out through context clues), so she somehow earned Metta's trust to learn that fact as well (though whether she knew Metta's true form too is up for debate). -Finally Malk "I taught [the Nexolord] everything I know" Micromon is either the best/worst person to be Metta's tutor (re: legit father-figure) to make him become the little tyrant he is now. Whether it's to fuel Metta's already-burning hatred for humans (being a sentient AI that destroyed Project Pixekai in revenge of the programmers who created him), teaching him useful skills to gain control over others as a leader (master manipulator, master technician, and more!), or giving Metta the emotional support he never had from his siblings or dad (headcanons galore!). Also love the little gimmick that Malk's name isn't shown to the MC since he doesn't properly introduce himself to them; only Metta calls him by name once when they're the only ones in a room or during Malk's last hurrah speech before MC fights Omnicron and disappearing for good. Also, Malk mentions meeting a younger Nexolord/Metta sometime after busting out of Pixekai and adjusting to human life, so he might've tried disguising himself long before they teamed up. Now I want to know if Metta first learned that Malk wasn't human or vice versa, but I would love to know what babey Nexolord looked like before he went anime villain mode. :)

Metta definitely was the one who gave his siblings their fake Champion names, mostly on the joke of Fona/Fenrir being Metta's guard-dog for a good chunk of the story (even accompanying him to Grunda's grave and keep a eye on Overseer Jack for the excavation). Besides that, it makes sense for Metta to have every opportunity to make a jab at his siblings and put them in their place in the current hierarchy. -Fenrir: Marsh/Fen-dweller, Norse mythos wolf that would bring disaster during Ragnarok and was bound by a chain shaped like a silk ribbon. [Similar motif to Nexomon Fenrir to have giant prison cuffs on his wrists and collar-like design on his shirt.] -Nadine: Hope (French), messenger/admonitory or showerer of blessings (Arabic), "the courage of a bear" (Russian) [Latter fits cause of her assigned Overseer being Remus and her tendency to put combat first over talking.] -Merida: Pearl (Mairead, Celtic), "one who achieved a high place of honor" (Latin), "a chaste girl" or "like a mother" (Persian) [Persian seems more ironic since Merida's nice when she gets attention but throws a major hissy fit if embarrassed or mocked.] -Zetta: Inquiry or quest (Greek ztsis), "a person that is intellectually curious and has a thirst for knowledge" [Mostly ironic since Zetta's dumb as a brick and has a love for shiny things.] -Ulrich: Noble or regal ruler, noble/rich heritage (Old German) [Grunda never had the chance to get a Champion name (until Netherworld), but it's interesting how his Nightmare makes him the ruler/guardian of Solus Desert and protects his people from the big bad Nexolord Remus...At least he got his priorities straight?] -Deena: Valley, church leader, spear ruler (Hebrew/Old English/Old German); "compromising, passive, and more likely to stay in the background rather than front and center" (myfirstname.rocks) [Even if she was a major part of Ulzar's fame, Deena keeps herself as inconspicuous as possible to ensure the MC's success too. Definitely didn't want to be caught up in the family drama again, you know? :)]

It is somewhat confirmed in the Netherworld end-story that Nexonium/Nexomite is more commonly found in the literal afterlife than in the normal world (and stupidly expensive too), and it also has the ability to incapacitate any Nexomon in its vicinity (when powered by a NexoCore) or keep a Nightmare running without a Warden to guard it. So who's to say that Metta used Nexonium to create the Nexocore, easily violating Ziegler's rule of keeping the dead dead and creating a power source that won't get traced back to him (you know, since he commissioned MC's parents to make it?). And it also shows that Metta had Nexonium stowed away in his old house, most likely studying its components in there or in the bunker.

And last but not least, it's not exactly confirmed if Metta actually sacrificed himself to revive Omnicron like the rest of Champions; he doesn't have a personal Nightmare like the other four (+Grunda/Ulrich), and you only get to find Metta's true form after the Netherworld story (ie. Killing Omnicron for real, dooming the current Nexomon species to extinction, and making a bridge between the Netherworld and real world to finish loose ends). Speaking of bridge, it's also confirmed in Extinction that just after MC destroyed Omnicron's soul, Venefelis was unleashed with the single goal to kill Hilda; unintentionally serving as the bridge for the Nexomon War and the future to come in Nexomon: Extinction. ...Also the MC (The Ghost of Nexomon Past) gets Metta's jacket and was buried in it pre-Extinction, so I'm betting the madlad did the blanket dog trick and it somehow worked against the MC and Nara. I mean, Metta's about the size of a bowling ball (five-pin/duckpin maybe?) so he might've had a chance to pull it off when MC was distracted by Omnicron and he just assumed the guy was gone for good.

Anywho, that's all I have for now, hope you enjoyed!
