Nova

Nova is a fairy who attends Alfea and is from Solaria, the same realm as Stella. Her first appearance is in "The Mirror of Truth". She fills Stella in on in the news for and rumors from Solaria. When the Winx went to Andros to slow Valtor's takeover of the realm, Nova helped Stella cover for them. Nova also helps Stella and the Winx Club to sneak into King Radius' wedding by suggesting they impersonate the flying biker troop.

Nova has green eyes, pale skin, pink lips and light-orange colored hair.

Civilian
Nova wears a light colored T-shirt with a pinkish crown on it, underneath a pale minty-blue jacket worn open with dark blue at the collar/neck, and ends of sleeves with stars printed along it. She also has on below the knee pale colored pants, and matching boots.

Fairy Form
Nova's fairy form consists of a sparkly orange tube top, a matching miniskirt with slits up the sides, and red boots with gray accents. On her arms are shoulder-length orange-red fingerless gloves, and several red ribbons are hanging from her skirt. Her hair remains the same, and her wings are orange outlined in yellow.

Personality
Nova seems to be more up to date with Solaria than Stella. However, she does relate these events to the princess and is helpful. She is peaceful but she also has a fiery temper. She finds happiness in the simpliest things, like a candlelight dinner or curling in front of a warm fireplace during a cold winter.

Season 3
In "The Mirror of Truth, " she catches up with Stella who has just returned from the Barrier. Nova and Stella are both from Solaria and have a very close friendship. Nova seems very in tune with her home planet and she usually keeps Stella updated news and rumors from Solaria.

She appears again when the Winx goes to Andros and Stella stays behind. Nova helps her cover for the other Winx girls.

In "At the Last Moment," Stella consults Nova for information on King Radius and Countess Cassandra's wedding. She tells her that there is going to be a lot of security and a big show with lots of circus performers. This gives the Winx the idea to sneak into the wedding under these disguises, with Nova suggesting they go in as flying hover cyclists. Later, Stella reveals Nova found her a copy of the uniform the hover cyclists wear.

Magical Abilities
Nova, as Fairy of Firelight, has light-based powers. Nova has displayed the basic, first-level abilities abilities all fairies possess, such as when levitated a book she was reading and turned a page by moving her head to the side.
