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.

The word ''mote'' means a very small particle (such as dust or sand). It may also be referring to [[Wikipedia:Emoticon|emoticons]], as most Motes have a smiling face.

===Battle Novas===
===Battle Novas===
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 [[Rod of Superniva|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.

The Scrolls, however, do not produce any Novas, but do roughly the same amount of damage as the Scroll's respective Nova and can be used multiple times. 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.
