{{#vardefine:transient jp en research file|Transient from the world of Old Ones who is always laughing maniacally. His shining silver arm Sacred Artifact has the power to seize lightning and handle it as though it were thread. By using this, he can grab the light hanging from the sky as though it were a vine and swing himself around. The speed of that flexibility makes it easy for him to escape from the bottom of any abyss. Depending on his home world, his name means either the Catcher or the Lord of the Great Abyss. He is a dark hero who makes secret moves and covers his body with a night ogre familiar that has skin like dark rubber to conceal his identity. He appears from the sky and indiscriminately abducts anything that catches his fancy. But all who know Nodens from his homeworld have one thing in common to say: "he used to be wise and calm, but now he seems like a different person." He is somehow both Nodens and not Nodens. This is due to a memory fragment of another Nodens from a different world.}}

{{#vardefine:transient jp en research file|Within the man coated in armor as dark as night are two different personalities. One is the Transient Nodens from the world of Old Ones. The other is the Transient Nuada from the world of Tir na Nog. Due to certain reasons the two personalities are coexisting in one body. Due to that his mind is highly unstable as both personalities struggle and vie for control of the body. Due to that, a dark, faceless, too skinny night ogre's personality that haunts dreams appears. But when the two personalities agree on a goal, his original wise manner can be displayed. As the Great Lord of the Abyss, he approves of those who challenge things head on without hesitation. He is also rumored to approve of others under the idea of 'the enemy of my enemy is my friend.' He is always afraid of those who resemble yet don't resemble him.}}

'''Transient Summons'''
{{Gacha appearance table|{{PAGENAME}}}}
==Notes==
* He is based on two figures; the divine king [[wikipedia:Nuada_Airgetl%C3%A1m|Nuada]] in the Irish mythology and the archaic Elder God [[wikipedia:Nodens#Lovecraft|Nodens]] in Cthulhu Mythos, both influenced by the same Celtic healing god.
* His Charge Skill, Airgetlam Abduction is a reference to Nuada's epithet  Airgetlám, meaning "silver arm".
* His abduction theme may be a reference to a possible etymological root of Nodens, being the Celtic "noudont" which means "to catch".
* His relationship with [[Nightgaunt]]s is a reference to how Nodens in Cthulhu Mythos ruled over night-gaunts.
