Alluka Zoldyck Powers and Rules Explained

Alluka Zoldyck, sister of Killua Zoldyck is a mysterious and unique character even in the strange world of Hunter X Hunter. Able to grant god-like powers to her mysterious alter personality Nanika, Alluka’s powers are intriguing as it invalidates the established rules of Nen.

As mysterious as she is, the series has revealed quite a few details about her powers and her dual personality Nanika’s origin.

Nanika has the power to grant any wish a person wants. Her powers are considered to be limitless by her family. Alluka doesn’t seem to possess any Nen ability or any power of her own. The mechanism of Nanika’s abilities is never explained but the people could sense Aura when Gon is sealed by Nanika. It may imply that Nanika’s ability may be a more advanced form of Nen.

Rules of the Power

General Rules

1. If three of Alluka’s requests are granted, Nanika appears and can grant one wish.
2. The wish can be asked by any person, need not necessarily the person who fulfilled Alluka’s previous requests.
3. Her power is infinite as she even managed to change reality to make certain things happen.
4. The greater the wish the more demanding the following requests from Alluka will be.
5. The person who will feel the burden of the next three wishes will be the one who Alluka requests, not necessarily the one who was granted the wish.
6. Consequences of unfulfilled wishes: If Alluka’s requests are rejected four times people will die based on the magnitude of previous wishes granted by Nanika.

Consequences of unfulfilled requests

1. Irrespective of the magnitude of the previous wish, if four of Alluka’s requests aren’t fulfilled, the request recipient will die along with his/her most loved one. They will be smashed to death.
2. Depending on the magnitude of the wish granted, in addition to the two mentioned in the above cases the people who spent the most time with request recipients will die. Actual numbers vary depending on previous wishes’ magnitude. Death is independent of the relationship with the request recipient. Unlike the request recipient’s death, they are wrung to death.
3. Two deaths are minimum while additional deaths are decided by the magnitude of the wish.

Milluki’s Five rules – Hypothesis by Milluki and family.

Based on experimentation, Milluki arrived at five rules of Alluka’s and Nanika’s powers.

1. If a person dies from not fulfilling Alluka’s requests, the difficulty level of her requests will be reset to level 1. It will be the best time to wish.
2. When Alluka makes requests to someone, she won’t make requests to others.
3. If the person dies midway when fulfilling Alluka’s requests, it will be deemed a failure and at least one more person will die.
4. Alluka cannot request a person without knowing that person’s name.
5. The same person cannot make two consecutive wishes.

Rules only Killua knows

There are other rules to the Nanika’s power that only Killua knows. He didn’t want the family members to know due to fear of both of them being controlled

1. Though she can grant only one wish at a time, a person can put a choice as a wish. ( Killua asks Nanika to kill his mother if they don’t leave the area in 30 minutes or to kiss him on the cheeks)
2. Physical contact with the target is needed for healing a person. This is the reason he has to take Alluka to Gon.
3. Killua can command Nanika and it falls outside of the regular rules. Killua’s command has no price.
4. Killua can make consecutive wishes by commands.
5. Killua can make commands even when Alluka is in the middle of her requests.
