A fanbook described it as some sort of alien. Then they came out and said the fanbook was not canon. That's all there is to it but autistic children always make a big deal out of it for whatever reason.

Retarded, Nyx, like all shadows is a demon born from human consciousness, it was always the case.
>>
>>337729826
Nyx isn't a shadow asshole, it's the only demon in Persona 3
>>
>>337729910
You never see Nyx in Persona 3, only its avatar.
And no, it is still a shadow anyway. The new persona 2 scenario explained that powerful shadows can take the form of demons from their arcana as a way to explain why you were fighting demons in 1&2 but generic shadows in 3&4 and why the appearence of the demons in persona games is always different in their looks and roles compared to other megaten games

>>337729910
Shadows are almost the thing as demons.
>>
>>337725980
Why does it matter what is cannon in Persona? All of the mainline games tell a completely new story with new characters anyways.

You're underselling it, it was literally from an interview with the staff in an officially published P3 side-material.

According to what they said, the “Nyx” encountered in Persona 3 is not a goddess, but an extraterrestrial existence that was the source of all mental energy on earth and started the cycle of life and death when it crashed into the planet. So in a way, this existence is the origin of everything that lives and dies and the Shadows within our psyches are the agent of the death-drive that existence brought, hence why if all Shadows on Earth merged together and returned to Nyx’ Body, Nyx could seperate from Earth and leave the planet, taking the concept of life & death with her and throwing the planet back into its original state. That’s the Fall; therefore, Nyx stands above all deities, since she’s the origin of everything mental and psychological.

There IS a goddess version of Nyx in the Collective Unconscious; she’s the major boss enemy in Persona 1 under the name “Night Queen”. However, the goddess Nyx is basically a manifestation of mankind's subconscious awareness of Nyx’ existence. One could say that the goddess/demon Nyx is Nyx’ will, while the Nyx in Persona 3 is a gigantic mass of energy from outer space that originally belonged into the “body” that’s now the Moon.


Now, this said, everything since P3 - including The Answer itself - has seemingly called this into question or ignored it, and given P3's success was a MASSIVE surprise at the time it's likely that they abandoned this new aspect of the story just as quietly as they announced it in favor of returning to the previously established lore so they could more easily continue the series.

So Nyx in P3 currently has no full explanation for its origin, beyond it not being the source of humanity and the existence of shadows.

But she was in the stageplay last year how can she not be canon? Atlus is just lazy to include her because it would require effort
