Spawn Conditions	Companions/Summons
Spawned by having Colorful Demilune Abyssite and resting on top of it. Spawns at either G-8/H-8 among the Mechanical Menaces or F-8/F-9 among the Sub-zero Gears Respawns 10-15 minutes after death.	N/A
Special Abilities	Passive Traits
Uses Rush and Heavenly Strike. If Chione ever fails to cast a spell, regardless of the reason (interrupted, or if the target if out of range), it will always immediately use Rush as its next action on the target with hate once it is in range, regardless of TP. As such, it is possible to anticipate this to easily stun/outrun Rush when used in this way. This frequently occurs when Chione is initially popped/pulled to a safer location.	Gains a potent Ice Spikes effect while casting.
Physical Qualities	Magical Qualities
N/A	Casts more frequently with more powerful spells as HP decreases. Uses Freeze, Blizzaga II, then Blizzard V, Blizzaga III, Freeze II. Resists Stun As the VNM loses more and more HP its casting speed and regain increase drastically. While VNM is casting magic it has incredibly strong Ice Spikes 100-200 damage depending on buffs.
Further Notes
Seems to possess the usual avatar-related immunities to status ailments, i.e. only Fire-based enfeebles seem to land. (see testimonials)
