Viola, also known as False Vacuum AB and Vacuum Decay, is the (technical) combined form of Melio and the Pink Heart. During Delta, she was the first major antagonist, having destroyed Alternia and created a black hole with the intent to destroy the entire multiverse as directed to her by her creator.

Nowadays; she has redeemed herself of her past crimes, choosing to fight on the side of the Protectors and promising that she won't ever let Courier control her again; not after all the pain and suffering she caused during Delta.

## Profile

### Appearance

Viola is a short-ish teenage girl with pale skin and pointed ears, She has reddish pink horns, black hair that fades into a reddish pink. Half of her face is broken open to reveal the metal wiring and technology underneath, while her arms fade to said wiring and metal. She has a hole in her chest where a tiny, perpetually regenerating black hole sits, She wears a bright pink top with puffy sleeves, a slightly darker pink striped skirt with off-white lace, black stockings and golden, pointe-esque shoes. She also wears Melio's old shirt around her waist.

As Vacuum Decay, she is much taller, has much longer hair and her skin is now a darkish magenta, She also has longer horns and ears, She wears a pair of four-pointed star earrings, with one being pink and the other red. One of her hands is notably more monstrous looking, and she now wears a multi-layered dress with a reddish pink swirly pattern, with part of the first layer of the dress having a pink-to-red lace and the other two layers being black with splotches of red and pink.

### Personality

Viola has, all things considered, a surprisingly upbeat personality, choosing to remain optimistic even under the worst circumstances, being helpful whenever she can and actively attempting to benefit her friends; of whom she sees as family.

She is not entirely kind and sweet, and would greatly dislike being viewed as such by anyone- occasionally being mean spirited, shallow or sometimes expressing a dark sense of humor.

Above all things, her determination shines through the most- having served as a source of inspiration and motivation during Reality Check via Melio.

## History

### Delta

During her time in Delta, she was known as Vacuum Decay- the villain who had destroyed Alternia and nearly succeeded at destroying Delta, as well, until the Heroes stopped her and resealed her.

At some point, after an attack on the Mountain, she was freed from her containment and aided Gogmazios in his quest in destroying the Delta Triangle.

Eventually, she mysteriously vanished from Delta.

### During Reality Check

*Main Articles: Melio, The Pink Heart*

During the course of Reality Check, Vacuum Decay and by extension Viola had not quite been 'born' yet, instead being divided into Melio and the Pink Heart, the former serving as a major protagonist while the latter served as a major antagonist.

At the end of Reality Check, confronted with either saving Serenity or Aldur, Melio absorbed the Pink Heart to gain enough strength and energy to save Serenity from one of Courier's attacks, forming Vacuum Decay.

## Powers and Capabilities

### Power Copying

When she was initially built as Melio, Viola was capable of only one power- the capacity to copy other people's powers, and to this day it remains her only 'true' power.

In spite of the potential of this power, she does have some hard limitations as to what she can copy exactly- being incapable of copying powers that require some sort of prerequisite, such as God Tier related powers, powers that she would be biologically incapable of copying due to her status as a Robotic/Magical Aura Construct, or other forms of the 'copying powers' ability, such as Kirby's.

Beyond that, she can willingly choose to not learn specific powers, having chose to not copy Janice's 'God Powers' in order to avoid Courier potentially using them if he were to somehow obtain control over Viola once more.

### Fear Manipulation

Originating from the Pink Heart, she has the capacity to manipulate people's fear, manifest fears themselves, and control other forms of Fear.

### 'Glitching Powers' / Distortion Control

Originating from the Pink Heart, she can manipulate the fabric of reality by glitching, distorting and manipulating the code of the world itself.

### Robotic Physiology

Being partially mechanical, she has the functions of a super advanced computer, such as photographic memory, permanent access to the Internet and various other capacities.

She has a battery with a 20 hour battery life- either recharged by sleep or by directly plugging herself into an outlet.

## Trivia

* She is implied to have Disassociative Identity Disorder- meaning she is not actually a single person, rather instead having three alters, Melio, The Pink Heart and Viola- with Viola being the system host.
* Said DID coding was not actually intended originally, but after a comment from a friend with the disorder, it was made a deliberate character writing decision.
* Viola's development was incredibly difficult, with her arc in Reality Check having been the most difficult to write.
