Noctix: A fan transformation of mine that combines Dreamix and Onyrix from World of Winx. I know it’s technically a spinoff and should be taken with a grain of salt anyway, but I feel that it could have been handled much better. I was actually inspired to do this by @emsartwork‘s Faunix transformation (mostly because Tecna’s reminded me of a Luna Moth), as well as her personal headcanons abt the show. Deets below!!
In my idea, Neverland is a part of the World of Dreams, but the World of Dreams itself is an infinitely expansive dimension, much like the Infinite Ocean--only it connects to the dreams of the worlds rather than oceans. Tinkerbell is an Earth Fairy--specifically the Major Fairy of Dreams-and when the Wizards of the Black Circle attacked, she fled to Neverland instead of the Legendarium World. She herself is a Danix Fairy instead of a Noctix one, and the NeverTree is her chosen source of magic. The Spirit of the World of Dreams is the only fairy native to Neverland, and she is the creator of the Noctix transformation. When Tinkerbell grew corrupt, she changed from the Fairy of Dreams to the Witch of Nightmares, losing her wings until her heart healed; she was still connected to the NeverTree, which is what brought the cold mists to Neverland. The shadow creatures she summoned are actual literal nightmares, and the very manifestation of fear itself.
As for Noctix, it is not an officially recognized transformation, as the only fairies who know about it are fairies who have the power. Noctix is also a fairly dangerous power to have if one isn’t careful, so it is doubtful that the transformation would be sanctioned.
The power of Noctix is earned when a fairy’s magic is bound to the NeverTree, by her own volition or someone else’s. She will immediately be transformed and pulled into the World of Dreams where she will be told of her new power (except in the case of the Winx, as the Spirit was fending off Tinkerbell). Once her magic is bound, the connection is permanent: destruction to the NeverTree will cause her to lose her powers permanently.
As a transformation, it’s primary function is to travel between the real world and the World of Dreams. The reason the Winx couldn’t make the portals on their own at first was because Tinkerbell trapping the kids in the NeverTree weakened its and Noctix’s power. Once the power was restored, it was a better idea to use Noctix exclusively in the World of Dreams: using its powers in the real world breaks the barrier between the two. Noctix is considerably weaker in the real world because the connection is weaker; despite this it is still more useful than other transformations dealing with dream creatures. It is a warm and comfortable transformation to be in, especially in the cold fog of Neverland, and the durable wings can stand up to more.
Like Believix, Noctix has a deep connection to the human psyche--Noctix fairies are more powerful when people follow their dreams and pursue their passions. They have a natural detection of passionate people about to live their dreams, and are drawn to them like moths to a flame. People more skilled in their craft are usually closer to this state than those starting out.
Like Enchantix, Noctix produces a special kind of dust from the wings: it is referred to as Dream Sand. Dream Sand can allow others to fly into the World of Dreams without wings, open portals if necessary, or make people fall asleep. The watches that connect the two worlds are all filled with Dream Sand.
I took pieces of the two transformations (the sashes from Dreamix, and the flowers and ponytails from Onyrix) but based the rest on moths that I felt fit the girls’ styles, and pajamas I could see them wearing:
Bloom: Her design is based on an Atlas Moth, and her outfit is a classic pajama set of a shirt and matching pants. Her special Noctix power is a special heat vision that allows her to see burning passions.
Stella: Her design is based on a Jewel Moth, and her outfit is the infamous “widow-with-inheritance” robe. Her special Noctix power is to lighten the hearts of the downtrodden.
Musa: Her design is based on an Ornate Bella Moth, and her outfit is a regular tee-shirt with pajama pants. Her special Noctix power is to hear the whispers of a person’s deepest desire.
Tecna: Her design is based on a Luna Moth, and her outfit is a hoodie with sweats. Her special Noctix power is to focus the mind of someone nervous about achieving their dream.
Flora: Her design is based on a Rosy Maple Moth, and her outfit is a nightgown with pajama pants. Her special Noctix power is to use sweet scents to calm people down.
Aisha: Her design is based on a Giant Leopard Moth, and her outfit is just comfy athletic clothes. Her special Noctix power is to motivate people to follow their dreams.
That’s all I have for Noctix!! a big thank you to my friend EMSartwork, for encouraging me and letting me reference your headcanons! She’s a really great artist and a great friend!! check out her blog she has all sorts of cool fandom stuff!
