Elegg — Goddess of Victory: NIKKE

During BOOMS DAY, Electric Shock’s converter helps manage a frightening problem with the Ark’s electrical supply. Trony has seen something about the underlying power source that leaves her terrified and increasingly isolated. Elegg’s attempts to reach her are complicated by demands from Missilis management and the urgent need to deal with recurring outages.

The two ultimately cooperate to repair the system, and Trony is able to tell Elegg more about what has been haunting her. Their renewed partnership culminates in a trip to the Ark Gaming Expo. They also discuss the danger of relying on a power source they do not truly understand and resolve to seek a different way to power the Ark, potentially beyond it.

The scrutiny around Electric Shock intensifies in D.ARK HERO. Accusations of terrorism lead to Elegg’s capture and interrogation at an M.M.R.-related facility, while Trony faces an agonizing choice over whether to rescue her. Exia, the Commander, and Maiden become involved in the attempt to save the squadmates.

After a grueling interrogation, Elegg accepts the false accusations against herself in hopes of shielding Trony, even trying to drive Maiden away rather than endanger another friend. Trony nevertheless takes the risk of reaching her, aided by the Commander and Exia. Maiden’s involvement is especially painful: the bond formed through gaming collides with her orders as an Extrinsic Nikke.

In Chapter 27, Elegg joins a temporary exploration team with Liveryn, Hammering, and the Commander’s group to investigate mysterious crystals in the Crystal Region. Her understanding of power allows her to notice how the crystals interact with electricity, while her curiosity pushes her toward further examination despite mounting uncertainty.

The expedition becomes far more dangerous than expected. In Chapter 29, Elegg is separated from companions during an escape and shelters in a building, where the rescue team eventually finds her. Her reunion with Trony shows how much their friendship has endured. She then helps analyze how the crystals collect and channel energy.

In Chapter 30, Elegg and Trony identify an enormous Harmony Cube and reason that the crystal network is concentrating electricity around the system. The discovery raises questions about what—or who—is trying to build there. After the expedition, Elegg is disappointed that the team has not found a safe alternative power source, but tells Trony she will not give up on showing people the real sky.

In BOOM! THE GHOST, Elegg investigates the abandoned luxury liner Utopia, whose lights remain on despite the ship’s extraordinary age. Strange encounters lead the party to devise the BFG, a device that can collect the apparent apparitions. Many of the threats are linked to the ship’s holographic technology, although not every manifestation is so easily explained.

In the continuation, the group helps the ship’s AI, Alfred, recover control and uncover the Utopia’s history. The anomalous hologram of Maya, a Nikke who once stayed with Alfred, has a special emotional significance for Dorothy. Elegg suggests residual NIMPH data as a possible explanation, but treats that idea as a hypothesis, not a solved mystery. When asked to erase Maya, she cannot bring herself to do it while Dorothy pleads for more time.

A massive Rapture is eventually found occupying the Utopia’s power source. Elegg helps improve core efficiency and upgrade its generators, extending the ship’s capacity to complete its final voyage without pretending that its aging systems can continue indefinitely.

In Chapter 45, Elegg and Trony take part in a covert plan to shut down the Ark’s power for one hour to help counter Sixo. They accompany the Commander to the hidden source: a vast, first-generation Rapture core fueled by biological material. Elegg explains how to interrupt its supply and force the converter to shut it down, while warning that leaving it offline too long could permanently damage it.

They carry out the timed shutdown, but the restarted core fails to return to its previous output. In a briefing to the Ark’s leadership, Elegg says its power has fallen to roughly one-fifth of its former level and is still declining. At the observed rate, the source could fail in approximately six months; Trony warns that greater instability could bring failure sooner. This is their projection at that point in an ongoing story, not an established final outcome.
