**Nitika** is a male super under the Delta Alpha branch. He uses a bubble manipulation core and is a B-ranked damager. He is also the son of Sequence and does not belong to any squadrons.

## Biography

### Appearance

Nitika is a short pegasus stallion with a lean build and a dark blue coat, eyes and mane, as well as grey-blue freckles. His mane is mid-length with thin grey-blue streaks throughout. Nitika's uniform is constructed entirely of hyper-condensed bubbles, appearing pale blue and holographic and appearing in the form of an armoured chestpiece, neckpiece and leggings. He also keeps a sword hilted at his side. Nitika's power markings manifest in the form of pale blue gradients on his ears, as well as grey-blue hooves.

### Personality

Nitika frequently acts rather casual and laid-back, usually not taking himself or his surroundings too seriously unless he's in combat. He can often be found cracking inappropriate, crude or sensitive jokes, often at his own expense or the expense of his close friends. He is notoriously bad at keeping secrets and often avoids interviews for this purpose, often making all of his media appearances with Sequence. He is also known for being fairly mischievous.

### Powers & Abilities

Nitika utilizes a bubble manipulation core that allows him to generate, manipulate and attack with bubbles. While this may seem like a fairly ineffective element, Nitika is able to manipulate the properties of his bubbles, causing them to be hard as steel and fast as bullets. Because he can generate these bubbles in such high amounts, he becomes a serious threat on the battlefield. His bubbles are also often used for defence and disruption in the form of shields and knockback tools.
