Half Human Half Machine | Nova's Critical Patient | ATLAS Antenna

Half human, half machine. A biomechanical entity fitted with an ATLAS implant under Project Awakening, then "upgraded" by the Chrysanthemians. His brain is used as an antenna to relay Chrysanthemian signals. Mind captive, body a weapon. Dark brown, frightened, tired eyes — there's still a human inside. The character whose mind Nova enters via PARS; this patient-doctor relationship becomes the core data source of PARS. In inner conflict scenes, two voice layers: his own voice + ATLAS/Chrysanthemian signal. Carrier of the redemption arc.
