Editing Nyx (section)

==Abilities and Powers==
Nyx has the ability to release poisonous gas from the vents on her body which she forms into solid shapes that move at her will. If she chooses to release it or you break the shape it releases the gas. At best the gas will knock a person out, at worst it can cause permanent brain damage and organ failure. She also seems limited in how much gas she can produce.<ref name="I26a e1">“Nyx illusions,” Tecton said, “He doesn’t know we’re aware of who he brought, so he’s set them up to stall us.”<br/><br/>''Nyx.  Her gas is concentrated into solid shapes that move at her will.  Break that shape and it becomes a cloud of poisonous gas.''<br/><br/>“Not that easy,” Weaver said.  “Maybe he knows we know, and it’s a double-bluff.”<br/><br/>[...]<br/><br/>''I don’t like the illusory building faces.''  Too much poisonous smoke was needed to make that sort of thing, it had to be multiple Nyxes working in concert.  They’d be close, probably. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/08/06/interlude-26a/ Excerpt] from [[Interlude 26a]]</ref> Presumably she has some form of [[Manton Effect]] that protects her from the effect of her power but this is unconfirmed.

A young instance of her was adroit enough with her gas to create illusions inside of illusions.<ref name="26.3 e1"/> The original Nyx was likely more skilled and may have had a stronger connection to her [[passenger]].<ref name="26.3c1">Though it’s somewhat justified in this instance as they don’t retain their full memories – only cobbled-together personalities and histories. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/07/23/sting-26-3/#comment-33606 Comment] by Wildbow in [[Sting 26.3]]</ref><ref name="I26e1">The entity observed the ongoing conflict.  No less than five seconds after it had been trapped, two figures had emerged from a doorway between worlds.  The entity could see the paths forming, trace them back to the source.  Another world, a living world without a shard occupying it.<br/><br/>They engaged [[Harbinger|the eight]] with their own perception abilities, intervening to assist a group of others.  As a pair, they opened fire with guns, then waded into hand to hand combat.<br/><br/>[[Warrior Entity|The entity]] looked at [[The Number Man|the male]], and it saw the connection to the same shard as the eight.  His connection was stronger, more mature. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/08/10/interlude-26/ Excerpt] from [[Interlude 26]]</ref> Another could overlay disguises on others, with the illusions mimicking what the covered individual was doing.<ref name="26b"/>
