[X] "I don't know anything else, I don't remeber who I was before I was made into a Tenno, I can't even remeber my real name. Nova is just the designation for what model of warframe I use."
-[X] "All I've ever known is being a weapon. You people won't let me do that...even when it's the only thing I can do to help. I just want to help..."
-[X] I'm scared, I don't want to lose you, I don't want to lose master, I don't want to lose chachamaru, I don't want to lose our classmates, I don't want to lose The Child. But everyone keeps getting upset when I want to do something to keep them safe.

Why do people keep voting to have Nova claim she's a weapon when her big revelation finding out she's an Operator is she isn't a weapon she's a conscious soldier who just prefers killing people with antimatter? A weapon is something she mastered, not who she is.

I'd say that a soldier is only several steps away from a weapon, but I am Russian and our military is the stuff that they use to scare naughty children with, so I am biased in that. Nevertheless, I'd imagine that she wouldn't easily let go of that thought simply due to how deeply ingrained that belief had been in her. In a time of high emotional stress, she would babble it out even if she no longer believed it truly. But you have a point.

ImmortalsBlade said:
We should actually then explain what Nova is then. Because she isn't a weapon she's an unfathomably ancient warrior who has probably invented entire cultures that have endured longer than most countries have existed. If we keep muddling who and what Nova is then that's never going to happen.

I'd actually like to move towards that after the emotional breakdown is done. But I can't figure out a way she'd be able to say that while on the verge of tears and anger. It requires a small degree of calm that I'd imagine someone absolutely unused to normal social contact wouldn't be able to handle during an emotional breakdown.

-[X] She's never even met the real you. This body? Without my psychic will, it'd have no self, no sense, no death. Just a metal puppet, dangling on Tenno strings. The real me is a warrior stuck in the body of an invalid girl, dreaming of what she'd rather be.
[X] I've experienced lifetimes of conflict, seen things no one here would believe. Fleets on fire as they are dragged into Jupiter's gravity well, entire cultures born and die at the whims of gilded masters, ancient monsters beyond your darkest nightmares. I could do so much, teach so much, save people from certain death yet people would rather risk their lives than let me help.

Actually, here's my idea. Just lay it all out.

I'm with you there, this works magnificently.

All of this will be lost, like tears in the rain.

That seems like a non-sequiter. She wouldn't be any more of a weapon if she didn't have an operator and lived in her current frame—if anything that would make her less of a weapon, since she would be useless if that body broke, and thus there would be some greater incentive to treat her like a person.

She doesn't think of herself as a weapon because she's piloting a murder-suit, she thinks of herself as a weapon because killing is all she knows. It's the only thing that she's good at.

Tenno invented their own cultures, designed weapons and frames and waged war on an incomprehensible scale to protect the people of the origin system. She just found out she isn't a purpose-bred weapon but someone who chose to wield the Nova warframe as simply another tool in her arsenal. A warrior is not a weapon, and the culture of being a warrior and how that affects others is something Nova needs to remember. She's killed but we know it was always with purpose, always a strategic strike to further Tenno goals.

Dismissing a culture we know is as complex as the Tenno's, an individual who probably followed absurdly complex rituals as being a weapon will just hamper Nova's growth into remembering who she was. She's not a weapon, but an ancient warrior trying to remember who she is. The killing she's done isn't important at all, especially when all her targets were all puppy-setting-on-fire evil.

Wait, I think I missed that. Maybe I accidentally skimmed through, but the only thing I remember Nova finding out was that she has a body and a sibling. I remember nothing about her finding out about the actual culture of the Tenno.

Pretty sure she remembers clans, syndicates, relays and Dark Sector conflicts.

Even if it mostly consists of endless grinding.

I was thinking a long clean scar running from the forehead down over the eye to the jawline, maybe with little branches running of it in a spot or too. Go for striking rather then cute or grusome. Have the Franken Fran scars be on her body.

I'd imagine that something like this would be a good way to have a large amount of scars. Basically a large amount of patches of differently colored skin, either lighter or darker than usual, probably depending on the scar in question. Not really gruesome, not exactly cute but definitely striking.

Maybe something like that.

Yep. The Blade Runner reference is on point here.
