- Complete Monster:
- Nova Prime, unlike her Sacred Timeline counterpart's goal of protecting her people, only has the goal of maintaining power. Disillusioned with the state of Xandar, Nova Prime makes a bargain with Ronan the Accuser to allow him to invade and ravage the planet, so long as she keeps her authority. Setting Nebula on a mission under the guise of saving Xandar, Nova Prime has Yon-Rogg betray her and leave her to die—also having Garthan Saal brutalize her when she reappears. Nova Prime then has Saal wipe out Nova Corp soldiers not in on the scheme to allow them to grant Ronan the means to breach Xandar, fully enabling the bloodbath that would ensue.
- Yon-Rogg is Nova Prime's partner in the conspiracy to surrender Xandar to Ronan. Recruited by Nebula to help her retrieve the source code for the planet's shield generator, Yon-Rogg betrays her to painfully rip the code from her head before abandoning her to die—first to an explosion, then to the brutality of Nova Prime's corrupt cronies. Yon-Rogg proceeds to hand the codes off to Nova Prime so they can lower Xandar's shields, removing all opposition to Ronan's genocidal invasion.
- Magnificent Bitch: Nebula, a child of Thanos, keeps her mainline counterpart's efficiency, without the tragic machinations of her mental state. She joins the Nova Corps, and aims to keep the peace, even when Xandar has become a Wretched Hive. She investigates a possible threat of invasion, with both ingenuity and combat efficiency. Eventually she breaks out the criminal Yon-Rogg, and releases the other prisoners to cover the escape. Even though Nova Prime and Yon-Rogg betray Nebula and almost kill her, Nebula rigged the key that would've allowed Ronan to invade...to lure him in and destroy his ship.
