Nocta, also known as Kevin Hendricks, is the enigmatic leader of the Astral Observatory. Though he is supposedly the Astral Timeline incarnation of Kevin, much of Nocta's past is shrouded in mystery. After joining the Astral Internet Detectives in 2017, he is believed to have played some role in their destruction before creating the Astral Observatory.

Story

Not much is known about Nocta's past. Being the Astral Timeline incarnation of Kevin, it can be assumed that their pasts are very similar with Nocta joining the Lunar Children and ascending on Undecim Nocte 2011. In 2012, it is believed that Nocta ambushed IsocelesAssassin and Mason. However, Nocta was supposedly in a weakened state during this time, allowing IsocelesAssassin to escape. This differs quite drastically from the Prime Timeline Kevin who managed to kill IsocelesAssassin. After this, Nocta's presence throughout the Astral Timeline seemed somewhat subdued as seemingly made less video appearances.

While the exact details of Nocta's actions are unknown, it can be assumed that he attempted and failed to bend Youshouldnthavedonethat.net to his will - much like his Prime Timeline counterpart in 2016. In 2017, Nocta managed to join the Astral Internet Detectives and befriend many of the users there. Nocta worked alongside the players up until early 2018, when he suddenly disappeared. Shortly after this, most of the Astral Internet Detectives were killed off. Nocta, presumably at the request of a high ranking Lunar Children individual or possibly The Jaeger formed the Astral Observatory and first started going by the alias "Nocta". The names "Nocta" and "Astral Observatory" were both taken from BUP from the Fucked Timeline.

In July of 2018, the Astral Observatory officially went online via Astralobservatory.net. The Astral Observatory Forums quickly followed with Nocta presenting himself as their leader. The surviving members of the Astral Internet Detectives, Moonman, IsocelesAssassin, and José, managed to track down Nocta and join the Astral Observatory. While Moonman and IsocelesAssassin adopted new aliases to protect their identities, José presented himself to Nocta as an old friend, slowly regaining his trust and offering to use his Ocarina powers should they be needed. Meanwhile, IsocelesAssassin and Moonman slowly gained Nocta's trust and were allowed entrance into the group's inner circle - the Subspace. Nocta also allowed the other new users into the Subspace as well - Yuukichan, NotAHoax, and Kaiden Zoromichi.

Nocta would fill the Subspace with various teachings - mainly ones surrounding Lunar Children beliefs such as Luna and the Parallelos. It appeared as though he mainly used the Astral Observatory Forums as a pipeline to pull in new users and gauge them before inducting them into the Subspace. From this point, it is likely that Nocta intended on ascending these members, as was seen later on in the case of Yuukichan. It is also implied that, during all of this, Nocta was still taking orders from an unknown individual or group.

At some point, Nocta decided to take José's offer and utilize his Ocarina powers. Nocta's plan was to send José back in time to the year 2016 so that he could enter into the Prime Timeline and steal the Lunar Children servers. This was supposedly done to somehow link Astralobservatory.net and Johnisdead.com - or perhaps to better link the two timelines together. Though José agreed to do so, he was secretly working alongside IsocelesAssassin to use the Lunar Children servers for their own gains.

On October 22nd, Astralobservatory.net went offline, destroying the forums. The next day, Nocta claimed that Johnisdead.com had stolen the site's bandwidth. A few days later on October 24th, the players discovered Astralobservatory.net for the first time after being linked to it from Johnisdead.com. When the forums were reconstructed on October 31st, the players joined them as well and began interacting with the Astral Observatory members for the first time. Nocta took note of this and warned the members of the forums that the players were seemingly involved with Johnisdead.com and perhaps related to Astralobservatory.net's downtime. This antagonized the players in the eyes of the forum members, effectively putting them at arm's length for a while. Despite this, the players managed to connect with the forum members and establish friendships.

Over the next few weeks, Nocta would occasionally engage in casual discussion with both the players and the members of the Astral Observatory on the forums. In one thread, Nocta posted the video Sky Children - Kaleidoscope - a music video featuring a song he enjoyed. This video contained some distorted footage that seemed to involve Tyler in some way. Shortly after this, Moonman contacted the players and gave them a brightened video of Nocta's clip - mask of truth. After this, Moonman began contacting the players in private via the Safehaven Discord Server. Nocta eventually caught wind of Moonman's betrayal, however, joining the Discord server on his own on November 24th. The next morning, Nocta and Moonman had an argument. Nocta called Moonman a fool and left the server. Shortly after this, Moonman was attacked by The Jaeger and removed from "The Truth" board on the forums. He was likely kicked from the Subspace as well.

In early 2019, Nocta took a trip with Yuukichan and Kaiden. During this trip, Yuukichan was killed and ascended. This resulted in Nocta's friendship with Kaiden becoming strained. Nocta later placed Yuukichan's within Astralobservatory.net.

Moonman eventually regained access to "The Truth" - possibly though being given access by another forum member. During this time, the players ARGdov and CelestialLight were slowly gaining Nocta's trust. On February 5th, Nocta gave both players access to "The Truth" board. After this, Nocta browsed the Internet Detectives Tumblr and discovered that the contents of "The Truth" had been posted. Believing that Moonman was responsible for leaking them, Nocta once again removed him from "The Truth". In retaliation, Moonman flooded the Astral Observatory Forums with Spambots which Nocta then had to deal with.

On June 5th, Moonman hacked Nocta's account and gave all of the players moderator status, allowing them to view deleted and hidden posts. On July 19th, Kaiden slipped in some footage of Nocta from the trip in which Yuukichan was killed in his video. This angered Nocta, who then proceeded to threaten Kaiden. On August 8th, Nocta finally struck back by trapping Moonman within the Subspace. Fortunately, this attacked quickly subverted by the players with the assistance of GHOSTBABEL. Though the players had managed to free Moonman, it caused Astralobservatory.net to undergo a substantial amount of damage and temporal chaos. This, combined with Yuukichan's chaotic spirit and the various other attacks on the boards, frightened Nocta, causing him to retreat.

Personality

Nocta is a very manipulative and enigmatic individual. It is difficult to tell when exactly he is being truthful. At times, Nocta appears to truly regard others as his friends. Despite this, Nocta continues to use them for his own gains.

Nocta

A reality that could not stay across spheres. Can we be friends forever? No? Why? I wont make him dwell on this its not even the same man this was practically an accident.

We have been exposed to some of the truths that shattered that illusion, and now we seek more.

10/22/18 - Malicious Attack; Forums Offline - Astralobservatory.net

Category: News

Dearest believers,

I have some news you may find unfortunate. On Sunday morning, around 12am, this site was taken offline. I do not know how or why, but during that time our bandwidth was temporarily re-purposed for another website, ‘johnisdead.com’. While I’m not sure why this has happened, I can only conclude it was some form of malicious hack. Please stay patient while I work to get my previous posts on this website back up, and work to restore the forums to their former glory. For now the forums are locked.

We will get through this.
