[[Image:Motes.PNG|right|frame|Six examples of motes.]]

A '''Mote''' is a small being of magical energy taking a specific elemental or environmental form. Most motes are fragile Battledome items with low offensive or defensive power.

==General Overview==

===Battle Motes===
Motes are [[item]]s categorized under ''Brightvale Motes'' but were originally categorized as [[Magic Item]]s. Though they are considered items, they are living, a fact all the more true from the [[Book]] '''The Water Mote''', which tells the tale of one such Mote. All Motes have a 20% chance of breaking each time they are used but will not break until after the battle has finished so they can be used unlimited times in a single battle.

Motes are generally considered to be bad items to use in battles due to their high chance of breaking and their low attack and defensive powers.

As of August 2013, there are 34 battle motes and they are as follows:

===TCG Motes===

There are five motes and three Novas that are only featured in the [[Neopets Trading Card Game|TCG]] card sets. The following motes and novas are listed as followed:
{|
|- valign="top"
|
*Air Nova
*Dark Nova
*Fire Mote
*Fog Mote
|
*Nova
*Rock Mote
*Ultranova
*Water Mote
|}

===Darkest Faerie Motes===
There are twelve motes and two nova motes that are found in the [[Neopets: The Darkest Faerie]] video game, these following motes and nova motes are:
{|
|- valign="top"
|
*Air Mote
*Bubble Mote
*Fire Mote
*Fog Mote
*Lava Mote
|
*Leaf Mote
*Light Mote
*Nova Mote
*Rock Mote
*Shadow Mote
|
*Sun Mote
*Supernova Mote
*Water Mote
*Wind Mote
|}

==Nova==
[[Image:Novas.PNG|frame|right|All novas currently in existence.]]

Although called a ''Magic Item'', a '''Nova''' is considered a Mote due to its ability to hold all elements of magic within it, and not just a single one as regular Motes (a fact established in [[Neopets: The Darkest Faerie]]).

Magical Novas have a different degree of power in each form. They are:
{|
|- valign="top"
|
*Nova
*Supernova
*Dark Nova
*Ultranova
|}

Motes were also feature in [[Petpet Park]]. They are mainly obtained at the Nova Craft Fountain. The Novas are listed as followed:
{|
|- valign="top"
|
*[[Alien]] Nova
*Corrihan Nova
*Ice Nova
*Lava Nova
|
*Malrone Nova
*Mariki Nova
*Mystical Magic Nova
*Paper Nova
|
*[[Pirate]] Nova
*[[Plushie]] Nova
*[[Rainbow]] Nova
*Shadow Grove Nova
|
*Shimmering Hearts Nova
*Tassyana Nova
|}

These Novas can be used in the [[Battledome]]. Most are single-use (also known as ''bombs'') and will disappear after being thrown at an opponent. Wands, Staffs, and Rods will create Novas of the corresponding type in the [[Battledome]]. For example, a ''Staff of Dark Nova'' will produce two Dark Novas each round it is used. Rods are considerably more powerful, because in addition to producing three Novas, they will also heal, attack, and defend, and they will not break. There is currently no '''Rod of Ultranova''.  Due to their relatively high price and low power, only Ultranovas and Rods tend to be used in the Battledome.

There are ten more kinds of Novas that serve as minions for Dr. Sloth: Mechanical Novas, Fire Novas, Pulsar Novas, Dark Nova, Light Nova, Friendly Novas, Attack Novas, Mecha Novas, Super Novas, and Ultra Novas. They are featured in the game [[Nova Defender]].

The ''Scarabnova'' is unique, because it can be considered both a Nova and a [[Scarab]]. It is [[retired]], obtainable only from the [[Brucey B and the Lucky Coin]] plot. In the Battledome, it either steals a Nova from the opponent or destroys them all.

The ''Grey Nova'' and ''Christmas Nova'' have no battle functions.

==Trivia==
*As of December 2006, Motes are featured in 115 different items.
*It is said the '''Black Cherry Slushie''' will "...create a taste supernova in your mouth."
*The ''[[Scarab#Battle_Scarabs|Scarabnova]]'' is a Battledome weapon geared against Novas. It may steal a Nova from an opponent, or create a sonic vibration which can cause all of an opponent's Novas to explode.
*The word ''mote'' means a very small particle (such as dust or sand), and may also be used here in reference to [[Wikipedia:Emoticon|emoticons]], a relationship noteworthy due to most Motes having a smile.
*A Mote avatar was released on May 23, 2007.
*The name of the mote '''Ree Mote''' is a play on the word ''remote'', as in a far distance. Likewise, ''Dee Mote'' is a play on ''demote'' as in depression and ''Ee Mote'' is a play on ''Emo" as in the emotional American subculture. This is depicted with its haircut.
