## Gimmicks

The song appears to be force Limit Breaker.

It is not necessary to clear the credits or get a good grade on them. However, the game shows extra scenes if you do.

In NOISZ Ignition, getting above a certain damage threshold (likely +100% on Hard and below, and unknown on Overload) allows you to see a short teaser for NOISZ re:||VERSE.

In NOISZ re:||VERSE, getting an S-Rank on the credits (SS-Rank on Easy) grants special extra dialogue that depends on your ending and the achievement "The Lost Fourth."

## Credits Comparison

Ignition's section begins immediately and ends at 2:58.

re:||VERSE's section begins at 2:59.

## Spoken Message (2:27-2:53)

"Every day, I'm really happy that I got to meet you. You're a really important friend of me. And I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be here right now if it weren't for the love and support that you've been giving me over these past few years. And um, I wanna let you know that you're really important to me and I love you, and I hope you remember that."

NOISZ (Game)/Story/Stage 6A

## Story

The main character, Karin, UFO, and Moca enter the castle. Karin notes something feels wrong. She insists everyone hurry to the throne room. The throne room is surrounded by the same cracks in space and time that the main character saw in the human world. Time stops, and a large vampire bat looms over the main character. They defend themself.

After the fight, time resumes. Even so, the cracks in space-time only seem to grow. The bat, now transformed into a vampire, commands the main character to leave with Karin. The vampire activates the portal, and the main character travels through it.

Beyond has returned to the laboratory. Beyond notices missing mass-production prototypes. She wants to get to the bottom of this but isn't able to now. Instead, she shuts herself off and begins a "Deinterlacing & Corruption Process."

## Song

Stage 6A's song is Blood.

# Story

The Producer recalls what happened at STΔRLIVHT‘s final battle in the basement of the Antiphon building to Beyond.

Sometime after STΔRLIVHT loses “The Clash of Twilight” competition, they head to the basement of the Antiphon building where they would meet Gaius Antiphon, just like how the Producer and Beyond foresaw it in a vision previously. They plan to defeat Gaius and stop him from severing the connection between the world and the World of Music, erasing music from this world as a result. They arrive at the front of the portal to the World of Music, which is stained with dried blood, and two people in fromt of it stand in wait.

The girls confront Gaius and his bodyguard, Stornel, who's been waiting for them. He explains that his reason for using the original NOISZ to cut the ties between the worlds is so that his two daughters will be cured from a curse from the void when the two tried to investigate the World of Music. However, one of his daughters, Arisa, doesn’t want music to be erased. So she bets that she can create a better power than him in a year, which STΔRLIVHT and the NOISZ/RS were the products of her experiment.

Before they fight Gaius, he sends Stornel to fight them first to show him the girl’s powers. Hakuno and Sumire face off against Stornel, who has the power of the original NOISZ, though they defeat him.

# Song

Chapter 6.I's song is Quicksilver; for the first verse, you play as Hakuno in her STΔRLIVHT STΔGE style, and for the second verse you play as Sumire in her STΔRLIVHT STΔGE style.
NOISZ (Game)/Story/Stage 15C

## Story

A flashback appears:
A younger Arietta, wearing a cloth around her right eye, asks if using the NOISZ could allow her to heal her body. A younger Beyond, missing her right arm, pores over various schematics and instructions. She explains that her father and his team were able to defend themselves from Noise Beasts by wielding the NOISZ. By attuning the energy to the wavelength of the Void, Beyond believes it can undo the damage done to their bodies and to the boundary between worlds.

Arietta apologizes, but Beyond assures her it was her own fault and that neither of them knew what would happen.

The two discuss their plan to use the NOISZ to collect energy from Noise Beasts that enter the human world. However, both of them are too weak to use the NOISZ effectively, especially with the risk that the polarity of the NOISZ could erase them entirely. Arietta suggests finding someone else willing to use the NOISZ.

The scene fades to black, then an unknown amount of time passes before the next part of the flashback:

After finding someone willing to use the NOISZ, he finds out about Beyond and Arietta's plan to harvest his energy and turns on them. He charges at them with murderous intent; however, before he can do much damage, he collapses.

The scene fades to black once more, and some time later, the flashback continues:

Beyond and Arietta learn that the NOISZ consumes the user's soul as energy. The proposed solution by the researchers behind the NOISZ was to divert some energy into the remnants of the user's soul, reanimating the deceased user as a soulless warrior, called a NOISZ Beast. Beyond is opposed to using this method, but Arietta argues no one else has to die if this works out.

When that NOISZ Beast was crushed in battle, he didn't collect enough energy. The two found another NOISZ user, but after what happened before, they refused to tell them about extraction. They stayed with them, watched them die, reanimated them as NOISZ Beasts, and collected the energy once they fell.

Arietta stays behind and researches a way to break the cycle: the mass-production NOISZ. The consumption rate is 37.2 times higher than the original. At this rate, Arietta feels a user would not live long enough to be useful.

Suddenly, a mysterious force interrupts her internal dialogue. It offers to help Arietta. While Arietta doesn't trust it, she's desperate to whatever it takes to break the cycle and see her sister smile again.

Back in the present day, Beyond tries to talk the main character out of fighting Arietta. The main character still insists on fighting her, so Beyond stands in their way.

## Song

Stage 15C's song is Beyond The Noise.

**Restrictions:** Grade AA or above required. Blaster style unavailable.
NOISZ STΔRLIVHT/Grades

Grades are a combination of verse clears over all runs on the same chart. A verse is considered cleared if you survive the verse, and the health bar is +0% or higher; bursting does not affect your performance for verse stars.

Once the health bar reaches +0%, there is a circle on the top-left of the health bar indicating your performance:

* **Gold star** means you currently have all Star Radiant judgments (the purple kind of Radiant).
* **Silver star** means you have full combo, but not all judgments are Star Radiant.
* **Green circle** means you have broken your combo.
* **Gray circle** (appears when the verse ends) means you failed to clear the health bar.

At the end of the run, your verse performances are saved. Each verse is saved separately, and the song selection menu displays a combination of your best verse performances; your grade depends on your verse performances and your TP. In addition, two grades (S and SS) also depend on your best verse performances.

The following list gives the list of grades, from lowest to highest. In order to get a given grade, you need to meet the requirements of the grades below as well. For example, you cannot get an SS if you do not also keep a full combo in all verses (the requirement for S grade) and 90.00 or above TP (the requirement for AA grade).

## Gimmicks

This is the credits song for NOISZ episode G. The song cycles between each boss in order and each one's own distinctive patterns at the difficulty of your play through.

This song forces Proto Style.

It is not necessary to clear the credits or get a good grade on them. However, the game shows extra scenes if you do. The exact requirements for each difficulty are not known as of now.

For Easy, S-Ranking the credits (meaning receiving no white damage and +200% Overflow or greater) will trigger the secret ending.

## Lyrics

We will dance move our feet until they lose the fight
There is nothing you can't do because you got the right
 We gon' party til the moon comes back in sight
We will dance move our feet until they lose the fight
There is nothing you can't do because you got the right
Move that body we ain't sleeping til tomorrow night
Firebird

Firebird is a cloaked vigilante with a flaming sword, exclusively targeting abusers and predators. News articles note that support for them is sharply divided along gender lines, with Firebird having far more support with women; their identity is unknown.

# Story

## Chapter 2

Firebird only appears once in person, in an encounter with Grace in Chapter 2.IV; the two argue their differing viewpoints on the meaning of justice. Grace argues what Firebird is doing is not justice, though Firebird does not particularly care whether they are labelled a hero or a villain, instead focusing on protecting the weak.
Firebird states their actions are for the sake of peace and tells Grace that one day she will have to realise how harsh the world is before leaving; Grace attempts to follow, but is interrupted by a Noise Beast. While dispatching it, Firebird absconds.

## Chapter 3

This casts suspicion on Hitori, though Hakuno says he and Sumire were asleep at the time the confrontation occurred. Firebird continues to attack abusers throughout Chapter 3, though without fatalities.

>
>

# Story

Grace walks back home after her usual idol routine where she sees Firebird, a vigilante superhero protecting people from their abusive partners and predators by attacking them with his sword. She confronts Firebird and tells him that isn’t what a hero should do to protect people. He says that it is a sacrifice in order to bring peace and tells her that if she wants to achieve a goal, she’ll need to sacrifice others, or else “The only thing you’ll be able to sacrifice in the end is yourself.” Firebird flees and while she tries to stop him, a Noise Beast shows up. She pulls up the linking app but only Hakuno responds.

Meanwhile, Sera is at the Antiphon building where she confronts the head of the company, Gaius Antiphon, and threatens him with a loaded gun. Her plan fails after she is intercepted by Stornel and she is left with a perilous decision situation where she can link up with the NOISZ but be left vulnerable or not help Grace. However, Gaius lets her walk free with no harm saying, “If I wanted to eliminate you, you’d already be dead where you stand.”

Eventually, Sera and Sumire respond to the app and Grace takes on the incredibly powerful Noise Beast.

Firebird is gone after Grace finishes dispatching the Noise Beast, however.

That night, the Producer has a dream; the members of STΔRLIVHT, locked in combat with Gaius in the Antiphon building basement in front of the portal to another world, and dying over and over - thousands, if not more. There are minor changes in the way they die, but then she catches a glimpse of Gaius being impaled by a blade. However, this does not last long, and the cycles return to STΔRLIVHT dying in combat.

The dream ends, and the Producer calls Sera to warn her not to fight Gaius, though Sera is caught off-guard and assumes the Producer is talking about her encounter with Gaius. The two seem to have two different conversations about Gaius entirely, though they both wave it off and continue with their daily work.

The scene moves to ??? being interrogated by Beyond; ??? insists STΔRLIVHT is dead, though Beyond is unhappy with this answer, and resolves to intensify the interrogation.

NOISZ (Game)/Achievements

Below is a list of Steam achievements that can be obtained for NOISZ and NOISZ re:VERSE. There are 92 Steam achievements for the game.

* The Steam page lists 94 achievements. However, two of them are "get all achievements" achievements: one for base game achievements and one for re:||VERSE DLC achievements. They don't count.

Each achievement in either NOISZ Ignition or NOISZ re:||VERSE gives

200

/

# 82
2.4390
…

{\displaystyle 200/82 = 2.4390 \ldots}

 HZ.

Each achievement in NOISZ episode G gives

# 9
6.6666
…

{\displaystyle 60/9 = 6.6666 \ldots}

 HZ. "For My Future Sins" is not counted in the total.

* Achievement HZ information may be inaccurate due to the recency of the release of NOISZ episode G.
* Originally, there were exactly 100 achievements, so each achievement would give 2 HZ, including the "get all achievements" ones.
* All achievements related to v2.5 (re:||VENGE) contents were removed. The worth of all remaining achievements are adjusted accordingly.

## Trivia

* The image for the achievement "LoSS" is in reference to an internet meme involving increasingly abstract ways of referencing a comic of Ctrl+Alt+Del.
* The image for the achievement "To a New Adventure" shows the "IV" used in branding for NOISZ STΔRLIVHT
* The achievements "GM," "GM2 The Absolute Plus," and "GM3 Terror-Instict" are references to the names of the Tetris Grandmaster games.
* The image for the achievement "Back to the Future" depicts a black sword, which strongly resembles the swords wielded by Genbu in NOISZ ARC⌖CODA.
	+ The locked achievement image for "Back to the Future" is the clock graphic shown in NOISZ STΔRLIVHT’s opening MV, which is a shortened version of the LIVHT MY WΔY MV.
* The locked achievement image for "For My Future Sins" has the heart within the NOISZ in one piece. Meanwhile, the unlocked achievement image has the heart broken in two.

## Level Gimmicks

There are two prominent gimmicks in this chart: Screenshots and warning sign bullets. At certain points during the song, the game will take screenshots that will be used as small projectiles with no hitbox throughout the chart, or displayed instead of the actual playing field. The warning signs appear like in any other chart that features them, but instead they will target the player and deal damage on contact, behaving like other bullets.

NOISZ STΔRLIVHT/Story/Dead End

"I have to do my part...just as you have to do yours."This page contains story spoilers for NOISZ STΔRLIVHT; proceed with caution.

 Release date: January 3, 2023

“Dead End” is the credits of the story NOISZ STΔRLIVHT: “False Timeline”. It takes place right after the end of Chapter 6.II. As the credits roll, the last scenes of the story play out.

# Story

As black swords from the smoke are heading towards Sera, Grace sacrifices herself by pushing Sera away and taking the hit from the swords. Flashbacks of Grace and Sera together play as she takes the hit. Fatally wounded, she talks to Sera and they kiss one last time before shortly dying.

After the smoke clears, a young version of Gaius appears, saying that he still has countless lives left to go. Sera, Sumire and Hakuno proceed to fight him again.

The story ends saying, “yet another cycle comes to an end” and “one day, the light of veracity will pierce through this endless darkness”, implying that this is not the true end for STΔRLIVHT, which has still yet to come. This marks the end of NOISZ STΔRLIVHT: “False Timeline“ and teases the upcoming story arc, NOISZ STΔRLIVHT: “True Heroes”.

# Song

Dead End has no playable song, though the credits theme playing is Chloé by Kurokotei ft. Aamna.
NOISZ STΔRLIVHT/Area Conversations

Area Conversations, shortened to Area Convos ingame, are short conversations in the Story section of NOISZ STΔRLIVHT that give insight into the daily lives of STΔRLIVHT on an average workday. They contain no story-relevant information, and are more for flavour. Previously seen conversations can be accessed from the Archive.

Note that the character diamonds displayed over the conversations can sometimes be inaccurate; for example, Hitori appears in some conversations, but has no such diamond indicating his presence in them. Note that numbering is based on user order of discovery, and therefore each user will likely have its own numbering system, so the below system uses the ordering of the article writer.

# Story

STΔRLIVHT's way out of the lab has been cut off, and so they follow Beyond along a longer path, noting the lab's containment functions for the powerful Noise Beasts it encloses.

The five of them hear footsteps, and as a precaution, enter conceptual time; however, the footsteps continue. Beyond calls another persom with her communicator, addressing them as Beyond, and informs them that one of the NOISZ Beasts has escaped. The voice tells Beyond that she'll handle it, though it'll take a few minutes, and advises them to avoid engagement - and notes that if it's unavoidable, the units are expendable, if STΔRLIVHT is capable of killing them.

The footsteps round the corner, and before them is a girl, Genbu, with a perfect resemblance to Grace, but with snow-white hair, and green, white and grey armour, as well as a green and grey visor covering her eyes.

Beyond notes this as the worst case scenario, though the voice over the communicator is unable to speed things up. Genbu states her intention is to protect, and aims to eliminate STΔRLIVHT; Grace faces off against her, and she falls to the ground.

Grace questions the situation, though Beyond tells her she's in no position to ask, and holds a gun to Sera, commanding STΔRLIVHT to do as she says. A single large machine in the lab lights up, and Beyond tells them to get inside, promising their safety if they do. The four enter, and the scene ends.

The next scene is the unfamiliar speaker being interrogated once more, stating that there's no way things happened that way; Beyond notes that the story may not be what they remember through all of the lies. The speaker insists this recollection of events is false, citing their lack of presence at the lab, and concludes that if Beyond doesn't remember eiher, then these aren't anyone's memories at all, to which Beyond concurs, noting that this recollection is an "extrapolation", and the most likely explanation of facts.

The speaker remains in the dark, and asks Beyond what she was doing at the end; she is not sure either, but comments that it was an effective enough bluff. She proceeds with the procedure, unwilling to "risk contamination", putting the unknown speaker back to sleep.

In the next scene, the members of STΔRLIVHT file into the office, having completed their checkups with Beyond. They tell Producer that it was tiring, though uneventful, and Producer sends them home for the day to get some rest.

Producer receives an email titled "The Clash of Twilight", and the scene ends.

"I really don't think we should be doing this after all..."This page contains story spoilers for NOISZ Ignition; proceed with caution.

## Bio

> *"The tiger girl now stands in my way... something's strange about her..." - the Main Character (NOISZ).*
>
>

Byakko is a NOISZ Beast under the control of Arietta. She is tiger-like and makes frequent use of shields to block incoming attacks.

## Story

In Story B, Arietta tasks the main character with fighting Byakko on the beach, supposedly to protect their friends. At this point, the NOISZ has eaten a substantial part of their soul away, and they can't think about anything but the thrill of combat and crushing Byakko in battle.

In Story C, the main character is upset with Arietta and Beyond for making them a pawn in the two's scheme to gather energy to repair the boundary between worlds and their own bodies. To stop the main character from confronting her, Arietta commands her NOISZ Beasts to attack. After the main character defeats Suzaku, Arietta then orders Byakko to kill.

## Trivia

* Byakko's name and appearance are inspired by the White Tiger of the West, Byakko (白虎), one of the Four Symbols in Japanese and Chinese mythology.

## Story

Moca asks the main character if Karin really attacked out of nowhere. They clarify she had a reason, that she didn't trust the main character. Moca asks what is untrustworthy, and several choices are presented. Whatever answer is given, Moca finds a reason to get into a fight with the main character.

After the fight, the main character asks how Moca is in a purified, as they were told that only the NOISZ can purify Noise Beasts. Karin explains that there was an invasion on the World of Music many years ago. These invaders killed Karin's parents, and Moca was the one to stop them from doing the same to Karin.

The main character still seems confused after this explanation, but Karin says that they're going to head to someone who can offer a better explanation. Moca and Karin guide the main character out of the Tacet Forest.

Meanwhile, Arietta confronts Marziale. Arietta attacks Marziale with sonic pulses, knocking down Marziale to the floor. Marziale says she hoped this future would not come to pass and that the invaders would never return.

Beyond returns after having escaped to a laboratory. She remarks how she wouldn't have lasted long against the suit of armor and that what she has become is a burden. She looks for someone, but instead, finds that the mass-production prototypes went missing. She wants to investigate this; however, she needs to recover. Beyond enters an isolated room, and the door shuts behind her.

# Story

Producer tells STΔRLIVHT everything that Beyond had told her the night before in Chapter 0.III, who express concern that the NOISZ consumes their souls. However, the group disagrees on the balance of upsides and downsides of it, though Producer intervenes and tells them they will have to get closer to use the NOISZ/RS properly, including sharing secrets; Grace and Sera reveal they are gay and dating, and Hakuno reveals she is trans and likes girls, though Sumire doesn't have much to share, other than the fact that she believed in Santa until she was 16. Sera asks Producer to reveal a secret, and the player is prompted with a choice: "I don't know", or "I like girls too", and Producer expresses hope for the future as the tone of the conversation becomes playful.

However, after the conversation ends and the rest of STΔRLIVHT goes to practice, Sera remains behind and expresses disappointment that Producer didn't "come clean", and asks again to tell her who she really is. Producer insists their innocence, and an aggravated Sera warns her not to let anything happen to Grace before leaving.

The next scene is an unknown perspective, and the speaker wakes up in a glass tank filled with liquid, scared and confused, though in time learn they can breathe in this liquid. Beyond tells them they were never meant to wake up, though asks the unspecified speaker what they remember, to which the only response is "let me out".

Beyond ignores this, and continues the "experiment", putting the unknown person back to sleep as a dream comes to them.

## Lyrics

Take my hand and hold it tight
Don't let your strength be undone
 For time marches on
Unrelenting, never to be satisfied
Transient seasons pass you by
 Late at night when I dream the darkness closes in
 Even if these chains are broken
Far too many debts must be paid for
 Come, wounded one
Don't let fear, snuff out your light
Gather yourself 'till all's won
 With pride seize the dawn
Face your demons, knowing I am by your side
As our distant worlds collide
 Please, I beg you my dear
Though you know nothing else
 Even if these chains are broken
Fate cannot be rewritten nor paid for
 Wish to feel you once more
To hold you in my arms
 Even if these debts are paid for
Far too many chains must be broken
And that is the price of my love

## Trivia

* While the original plan was to commission someone to make the False Timeline credits theme, Chloé ended up fitting the role well as is, despite not being an original.

Hardcore Maniac

## Song Info

 **Rate:** Normal | **Verses:** 3 | **Boss:** Jester | **Length:** 3:52

*Base Pattern by k//eternal*

*Character by Angelina Chiong*

## Story Context

In Story B, the main character enters a small town in the World of Music after defeating Karin. A robotic jester steps in to defend the fleeing townspeople.

In Story C, if the main character stays behind to defend their friends, they fight a robotic jester that is set on attacking everyone.

## Gimmicks

The jester moves all around the field and has multiple versions of itself.

## Strategies

The "ENEMY" marker at the bottom of the field shows the true jester in V2. If struggling to dodge the double curving kunai bullets, play defensively and focus on dodging the red ones while shielding through the blue ones. Parry style is recommended for getting the S-Rank. Blaster Style is better for damage.

## Flavor Text

**Beyond**: Watch out, those jesters are robots! Robot jesters are 30% more dangerous than real ones! I read that in a book, I think...

**Arietta**: I trust even you've learned to balance offense and defense by now? Calm analysis will get you through any unexpected situation.

**Stornel**: This one is unusual... Consider building for survival or if you prefer the offensive, for speed.

NOISZ STΔRLIVHT/Stats

Stats are values associated with each character/style, which influence gameplay in various manners. There are four stats, with PW (Power) affecting all four overall:

# Description

Stats have one of eight values. From lowest to highest: F, D, C, B, A, AA, S, SS - though SS on a stat can only be achieved by the character having that stat as the main stat (or through a stat being raised by special circumstances). The higher a stat, the better the associated attribute is; in addition, there are bonus effects, called perks, that are active if a stat reaches B/AA/SS.

Achieving SS+ is only possible under specific circumstances with: Modules on the Antiphon Armament Style, specific Style abilities, and V-IGNITION.

In a level, stats are decreased if the character has lower power than the boss. The number of penalties is given below:

# D

{\displaystyle D = }

roundup

(

P
B

−

P
S

25

)

{\displaystyle (\frac{P\_B - P\_S}{25})}

Where

D

{\displaystyle D}

 is the penalty incurred in the form of a stat decrease rounded up to the nearest whole number,

P
B

{\displaystyle P\_B}

 is boss power, and

P
S

{\displaystyle P\_S}

 is style power. The first penalty goes to the main stat of the character:

 Sera
 Sumire, Hitori
 Hakuno

Note that in the case of Joker, while her main stat is actually PW, the penalties start from HP like Grace.

Future penalties go to stats in the order [HP -> SPC -> ATK -> TEC -> HP], looping around. For example, if Sera takes 3 penalties, the penalties go to TEC (Sera's main stat), then HP (the one after TEC), then SPC (the one after HP).

The style power is higher than the boss power, so note how no penalties are applied.The style power is lower than the boss power - note how the stats are now lower than the base stats.
# Detailed Information

Each stat can mathematically correspond to a certain percentage multiplier for its associated output; the following tables taken from the datasheet detail roughly the trend for each stat increase.

**HP - Damage taken**

**TEC - Judgment windows** (Error cutoff ≈±200ms)

**ATK - Base damage**

 S
 AA
 A
 B
 C
 D
 F

**SPC - Extra damage**

 SS
 S
 AA
 A
 B

## AA SPC Perk

Grace - Burst lasts for twice as long. Damage taken while bursting is reduced by 25%.

Sera - Automatically hit all slash notes during Burst.

Sumire - Hitting notes during Burst also recovers HP.

Hitori - Grazing bullets recovers HP.

Hakuno - Docked damage is multiplied 1.75x (going from 40% to 70%).

Black Cat Blaster Hakuno - Charged shot damage multiplier is greatly increased.

Joker - Gains charge passively on beats without notes.

DIAGRAM

## Story Context

Beyond takes STΔRLIVHT to visit a secret Antiphon lab on the outskirts of town to analyze their abilities. After examining each of the girls, the lights go off. As backup power turns on, they see Stornel, who’s been following them. An accompanying blue dragon crashes down into the lab and Stornel offers Sera this exceptionally powerful Noise Beast as a trial. Sera takes up this challenge and fights the dragon.

## Trivia

* DIAGRAM's Hard difficulty has been changed three times.
	+ It was re-rated from 10 to 10.5 on version 2.0, then was accidentally re-rated back to 10 in version 2.211 but fixed in the next version, 2.220.
* The large round bullets with four small lasers stemming out from them bear a strong resemblance to those found in Kill The Deadline in NOISZ Ignition.
* Although the dragon Noise Beast's tail is shown in the enemy preview in Chapter 4.III, it is not present on its battle portrait.
	+ A similar inconsistency around the appearance of a tail has also been seen with Seiryu, the enemy in Kill The Deadline.
NOISZ Beast

"I really don't think we should be doing this after all..."This page contains story spoilers for NOISZ Ignition; proceed with caution.

A NOISZ Beast is a deceased NOISZ user whose body has been reanimated using energy contained within the NOISZ. NOISZ Beasts are generally extremely powerful, and as in life, can also operate in conceptual time. However, if the NOISZ is removed from a NOISZ Beast, they will no longer move and will fully die.

NOISZ Beasts share certain defining characteristics: white hair, closed eyes, and physical features that may more closely resemble the shape of their souls (usually animal-like traits).
