mythril and adamantium are also wishforge badge names xD
I'll also like to point out that Nova actually means a period when a star is brighter than usual, often confused as meaning the same thing as a supernova. It also might be mistakened for being the shortened form of supernova. Supernova is when a star, well, explodes and generally... dies. Nova might also be mistaken as being the shortened for of hypernova. Hypernovas are when a star collapses on itself and becomes a black hole - and we're avoiding things that mean "Black" seeing melans aren't always black. I think those definitions should be perferably avoided, seeing we're adressing melans.
