I’ve seen theories of Lila running into Null in season 6, and I just kinda wanted to make my own design before a canon one potentially comes out.
I picked the name Nessuna for her (I actually have a name in mind this time, lol). It means “nobody” in Italian. Since Lila/Cerise has so many identities, I thought it would be funny if in her form while using Null, the kwami of nothingness, she was just essentially named “nonentity”. Also, it alludes to the Odyssey with that one story where Odysseus tricks a cyclops by claiming to be “nobody”. It just makes my nerd brain happy.
I strayed a bit away from miraculous design conventions with this one- hopefully it’s still recognizable as Lila (I always worry about that with my design work it seems).
For those who don’t know who Null is, Null is the Kwami of Nothingness, meant to be the opposite counterpart of Gimmi, the Kwami of Reality whom fused between Tikki and Plagg. Originally from a concept art back when Miraculous was still in development which he never got into the show.
There are no official information about Null other than wants to "Return the world back to nothingness".
Best guess is Null wants to erase everything from existence.
Null’s power is officially unknown. Has no animal theme.
Everything else (unofficial) on Null and the Miraculous of Nothingness are fan-made by NioNom-Art (Tumblr)/NioNom84 (Instagram).

Nil is mine.
Who is Nil?
Billy, as he goes by, is an unhappy man who sees life is meaningless, believe any joy, love, hopes and dreams in the world are unobtainable or short-lived in a world he live in filled with hate and distrust and bad things.
When Billy is at his lowest, currently for unknown reason, he found the Miraculous of Nothingness and communicated with Null, the Kwami of Nothingness. Maybe it’s his depression and despair got to him, he completely understands Null that everything has no meaning and that bad things will always exist along with the good as they are inseparable; two sides of the same coin.
“Wouldn’t it be better some things just disappear?” Null said to Billy; Billy agrees.
Learning with the Null’s power through the Miraculous of Nothingness he can make anything and anyone disappear with a snap of a finger.
So he puts on the Miraculous of Nothingness and transforms. For the first time and in very very long, he is happy. He have powers, he can play superhero and fight crime and corruption anytime he wants. And the twisted and best part to his happiness is that he can make people, especially bad or mean people or people he don’t like, disappear and he hates people in general; he makes his problem fades away; literally.
Billy/Nil don’t sees himself a hero, In a world where are no heroes, he’s just a bad guy who fight badder guys.
Miraculous of Nothingness:
Officially, there is no Miraculous of Nothingness. So NioNom created one. It’s the tiara or hairband with spikes.
Created and drawn by NioNom-Art
Power: “Void”
Based on NioNom’s fan creation, “Void” can make anything disappear permanently after by saying the word and a ball of bright light appears in one hand.
In my version, “Void” can also make a person or living thing disappear; erase from existence. And he wants to, he can also erase memories of that Voided person, living thing, or object in other people. Recorded objects such as photographs, videos, drawings, and written record of that Voided person or object will also be erased or change.
Person who is being ‘Voided’ is not dead in a technical sense as there is no pain or physical remains even at an atomic level or traces of their existence even in history. Not only just their bodies but their souls and essence as well. It is unknown whether people and things are being sent to after being Voided.
It is possible “Void” can erase a place from existence but requires large amount of energy even on a tiny building.
It is debatable whether “Void” can erase anything nonphysical like a word, an idea, or even a fictional character, object, or place, not without a ridiculous amount of energy.
Null can use his power due to not having a mouth.
Weakness of “Void”: Of course, such ridiculous power must have a weakness, so I ‘nerfed’ it. In my version, only Kwamis and their Miraculous holders, even untransformed, are immune to the memory wipe/alteration of “Void” due to Kwamis are godlike beings whose powers could transcends reality. Also a special magic spell have been cast in the past that protect Kwamis and their Miraculous holders from memory wipes specifically from “Void”. However they are not immune of being Voided.
Though Nil can make anyone or anything disappear, it works more effectively as long he is focus or as long he sees or knows who or what he wants to Void.
Second Power: “Miraculous Nil!”
A more powerful version of “Void!”, creating a big flash of light and then burst into a wave.“Miraculous Nil” erase anything at a large scale from existence and people will lose memories of it as if never existed in the first place and all recorded mediums are erased or altered. An a whole population of people, people of particular bloodline or family name, dead famous person, a type of animals, plants, or living thing, building, city, country, geography, historical event, invention, an idea or concept.
Other Miraculous Users are not immune to “Miraculous Nil!” memory wipe though they will feel a sense of deja vu or as if they forgot something especially if they are important to them. It is currently unknown if they will ever remember.
Null is unable to his use Miraculous power without an owner due to not having a mouth.
Abilities:
Also based on NioNom’s design, his suit is unusual heavy and dense but tougher than any Miraculous holder suits despite looking like spandex.
He can also float.
Weapon/Tool:
The ‘halo’ behind him is actually his Hula Hoop ring which is his weapon/tool which he store on his back. But make no mistake, it is deadly than it appears.
Nil’s Design:
Also based off NioNom’s designs where Marinette and Lila are holders of Miraculous of Nothingness, the suit is simple given Null has no animal theme and I think it visually evoke the concept of Nothingness. Though I love working with monochromatic (only black and white), I think it needs some color other than just all white/black.
Basically, Nil’s suit is one-piece ‘spandex’ from head to toe, even cover his entire skin including his entire face except his eyes and hair.
Kind of reminds me of the Barians from Yugioh: Zexal.
I’ll admit, I based Nil’s suit off of Muse from Marvel’s Daredevil comic/show which he has ‘tears’ run down from his eyes to his chest.
Not only having no mouth is based on Null/Muse/Barians but also fits his secretive personality which he doesn’t like people see his face. Though I kept the eyes to give off the creepy vibe. He even avoid talking or make verbal sounds as long as he can.
I thought hard on what name to choose to represent Nothingness and nihilism but I also want it simple, like in one syllable. so I picked “Nil”.
“Nil” is a word for “Zero, None, Nothing, Nonexistence” and related to the word “Nihil” and “Nihilism”.

Miraculous of Nothingness and ideas, designed by NioNom-Art (Tumblr)/NioNom84 (Instagram)
The Kwami of Nothing and Inevitability greeting my Oc, Abel who has his Miraculous. Light and shadows don't affect Null like they do other objects/people.
Here's the sketch below cuz I like it
Null has 3 pairs of arms and has a blank, doll-like appearance. He has a heart-shaped hole in his chest and 3 sectioned wings.
Watch Miraculous pull out the lore plot twist of the century by not having Chat Blanc being Chat Noirs akumatized Form. Because THIS
Is not how the akumatizations go down. This is something else. He doesn't even have the telepathic butterfly mask
And definitely what never happened after someone got akumatized is that their akumatization transformation causes a shock wave out of their power
Okay guys hear me out
In the miraculous pv concept art book is a side with tikki and plagg with the two sides of the Kwami Null
Compare the black Null with Tikki and the white one with Plagg, you'll quickly see that they have simular bodys (White Null for example has a tail like Plagg) and they are on the same double page so that's a connection for ya
Notice also that in the miraculous box, the colors of the cat&ladybug yin-yang symbol parts have exactly the same colors as the two null parts (duh yin-yang)
With Plaggs black outlining the cats white yang part and Tikkis red the ladybugs black yin.
So what if the two Null parts from the Pv book WERE Tikki and Plagg but in their finale form to activate the Ultimate power?
And what if this concept was never actually scratched from the current show, just rewritten a bit in the execution?
I always thought it weird that people just assume that the Pv concepts are all gone now just because they aren't outright said from the beginning but alright go off
This would mean that just like Tikki and Plagg have a finale form so would Ladybug and Chat Noir. Plaggs Null version is white, so if Chat Noir had a finale power form it could very likely look like this
(Also when you scroll back up you can see that the power blast Chat Noir sets free has the same white/light blue color scheme as Chat Blanc)
For the sake of this post let's call this ultimate destruction power state Catatonic because a catatonic depression makes the person go numb and unresponsive to the world around them. They often don't talk, can't hear (yall know the post about the deafness of blue eyed white cats right?) and seem to be in a kind of daze for quite a while. Which is how Chat Blanc was first presented to us through this picture above. So Catatonic it is.
(Ladybug finale form would then be black like null tikki but please don't ask me for a name)
But now the question is, WHY did Chat Noir fall into the Catatonic power state?
For that let's look again at their powers. Creation and destruction. We were told that the ladybug and the cat are the most powerful miraculous in existence but these two concepts need two very different execution styles to use them properly to their limits.
The Ladybug creates a lucky charm and can heal/ fix whatever has gotten hurt or broken. For a power like this the holder should be calm, level headed and concentrated. That's when Creation is the most effective. So for the Ladybug to reach her ultimate Creation power state she must reach complete inner peace and level headness.
Destruction on the other hand is something COMPLETELY different. The Cat calls a Cataclysm with which they are able to destroy, break and disfunction anyone and anything. But the most EFFECTIVE is destruction when the person causing it doesn't hesitate, doesn't think, just does and let's the destruction consume everything in its path without holding back. Therefore the power of destruction is the most powerful and effective when the holder is having a mental breakdown. Because then every person no matter how good hearted let's go of the pressure society puts on us to never break or hurt anything or anybody, never let our emotions get the best of us, always be tidy, organized and follow the rules of a working world. In short, all the values that hold back destruction and chaos, everything the cat stands for.
So for Chat Noir to go Catatonic he would need to have a breakdown and, yall, I hope with all the possible reveals and truths coming out temporarily I don't have to explain why THAT is anything but far fetched right now
If I'm correct, there's no Au of yours currently where Null existence is cannon... (March 3rd.... *Whink, whink*... Jk, unless not, not the point 😅)
So, in the Pv, if I'm not mistaken, there are two confirmed powers -beside what each feary had- we know about Null; it gave Richard future visions of the end of the word (I think this was referenced in the movie with the Butterfly Miraculous)
and with an untold methold, it was able to link Tikki and Plagg to jewels (Miraculous like that wasn't a natural stuff for fearyes at than) in Plagg chase even supposably curse the user with bad luck and being stuck with it til a LB's kiss...
So my question is, if you would write/include Null, would it still have these powers? If yes, how would they connect to it's concept (It's "Nothingness", right?)
Honestly I probably wouldn’t do anything with the future visions idea, mostly because the rabbit miraculous already has that ability, so I don’t want to duplicate it.
I probably also wouldn’t go with the second power either, because of the cannon. The canon that the comic books picked for the miraculous was that a sage at some point connected all the kwamis to their miraculous, and that new sages can continue to do the same and connect kwamis that aren’t bound to miraculous to jewels (kinda like what’s going on in Feralnette by @bigfatbreak if your familiar). I don’t think Null would have the power to link kwamis to jewels with the new canon rules.
I do think that if I introduced Null into a comic that it wouldn’t be initially connected to a jewel- and would eventually have to be forcefully connected to one to form a miraculous. Null would hate the idea of it becoming a tangible being, after all.
Hello. Question; since Null is beside Lila, and you made a form sharing power and not, does that mean unlike other kwamies, they is not suck in the Miraculous?
Oh- haha- I can see how that might be confusing now that I’m looking at it- I originally drew Null next to Lila so that people could hopefully tell at a glance that this was concept art for Lila with Null’s miraculous. At least, that was the intention.
I have definitely thought of an au where Null isn’t bonded to a miraculous at the start, and Marinette has to find a way to bond it to a miraculous so that it’s power can be harnessed by humans, and to give it a physical form (that it detests).
In both the art I did with Marinette (Lady Cipher) and Lila (Nessuna) they are using a miraculous connected to Null to transform, and Null becomes their suit, like all the other kwamis- it isn’t able to be separated from its miraculous now that it’s bonded.
