So basically, "Monster" is a collection of a wide variety of species. Think how like, "Animal" includes mammals, fish, birds, reptiles, basically all real-world species. 'Monster' is on that same level, with one requirement that separates them from animals being that they're made of magic instead of physical matter. They're all just "non-human" and there are probably species (or ig egg groups like in pokemon).

Monsters still turn to dust when they die though just like Darkners. Darkners can "turn to dust" in the sense of being destroyed in the Dark World, though it's often a unique, object-based destruction. Darkners usually shatter or get "torn up" (like cards in the Card Kingdom) when defeated, not necessarily turning into the same magical dust as monsters.

Darkners are typically based on an inanimate object in the corresponding Light World location. The Card Kingdom is located in the Light World's Unused Classroom, so its Darkners are based on playing cards, board pieces, toys, etc. found in that room. The Cyber World is located in the Light World's Library Computer Lab, so its Darkners are based on electronics, software components, computer programs, etc.

Darkners are capable of using magic, with their attacks corresponding to their Light World counterpart object. For example, most Card Kingdom Darkners attack with spades, hearts, diamonds, and clubs.

Darkners can be transferred to other Dark Worlds if Kris transports their Light World counterpart. Ralsei is the only Darkner known to traverse between Dark Worlds seemingly without assistance. Though any Darkner can be transferred to any Dark World, they may not be compatible with it. If a Darkner stays in a Dark World they are not compatible with, they eventually turn to stone. The only Dark World that all Darkners can reside in without turning to stone is Castle Town, because its fountain is made from "pure darkness."

Some Darkners also have knowledge that does not pertain to Dark World. They can also recall their Hometown counterpart's interactions with Lightners. Darkners seem to possess the ability to instantly tell Lightners apart from other Darkners. There seem to be some exceptions to this as Gerson Boom didn’t know what Lightners where. It’s possible this may have to do with him originally being a lightener himself.

Lightners are people (both humans and monsters) that exist in the real world, as opposed to the Darkners that inhabit the Dark Worlds. Lightners of both kinds possess the universal qualities of a SOUL, and according to Queen, the power of determination and the ability to create Dark Fountains. Lightners's clothes and skin tones change upon entering a Dark World.

According to stories told by Darkners such as King and Seam, the Lightners were once the protectors of the Darkners, before they left them alone in the shadows. Seam explains that Lightners were seen as the "Gods", "protectors", "creators" and "those who gave [Darkners] purpose". One day however, the Darkners were locked away in the Dark World, and the Lightners were never seen by them again.

Most of the world knows nothing about Lightners and Darkners. For Darkners, Lightners are common knowledge.

In the Dark World, monster Lightners can use magic. As allies, monsters like Susie and Noelle can use magic to perform spells. However, Kris, a human Lightner, cannot cast magic. Despite the fact Kris can get magic from certain items, they cannot manifest it into a spell like the others.

Noelle Holiday is the tritagonist of Deltarune. She is a Lightner from Hometown and one of Kris's classmates, as well as their neighbor and childhood friend. She plays a very minor role in Chapter 1, but becomes a major character in Chapter 2, where she temporarily joins the party during Cyber City, wielding a ring. If forced to freeze enemies and become stronger, she will become the deuteragonist of the "Weird Route." Noelle lives on the northwest side of Hometown with her mother, Carol, and her father, Rudy, who is currently in the hospital with an unnamed disease. Noelle's height is 5'3.

Noelle's appearance: Noelle Holiday is an anthropomorphic reindeer with short brown fur, a red nose, two brown antlers and two ears. She wears a red and green checkered sweater with dark grey sleeves and a dark grey skirt. She also has long blonde hair, and two prominent front teeth. In the dark world, Noelle Holiday is an anthropomorphic reindeer with a more straight face, pale brown fur, antlers and ears, with pale blonde hair, and a longer white robe with wide ample sleeves.

Noelle's personality: Noelle is friendly and cheerful, but also very timid, and sometimes has trouble saying what she's thinking. She apologizes often, and stays quiet about her feelings, such as her possible crushes, or her distaste for Berdly, out of fear. Her father says that "everything scares her," and describes her as "defenseless." According to him, she has a fear of humans hiding under her bed. This was made worse (or started) by Kris's repeated attempts to scare her when they were younger, including at least one time they hid under her bed. She shows to be more honest to Kris when it comes to her feelings and often yells at them when they pull pranks on her. She becomes more brave and less fearful from Chapter 2, during the time she spends with Kris in the city.

Noelle's backstory: Noelle grew up in Hometown with a loving father and a strict mother, and was very close with her older sister, Dess. As a child, Noelle and her sister became friends with her neighbors Kris and Asriel Dreemurr, and the four of them would often explore the forest around the graveyard together. One day, however, an unspecified tragedy occurred, and it is implied that Dess either went missing or died.

Noelle's magic: As a Lightner, Noelle is able to open Dark Fountains in the Light World by coursing her will into a sharp object and stabbing the ground, turning the affected area into a Dark World, an alternate view of reality through the lens of shadow. Noelle summons heavenly light, that restores HP to Noelle or a single ally. Noelle can summon a cold mist, that sweeps through the battlefield and puts all tired enemies to sleep. Noelle can use ice magic and healing magic.
