The DVA System, or the Dimensional Variance Accelerator, was SEBEC's most dangerous, most guarded, and most powerful weapon. The system was developed primarily through the efforts of Dr. Nikolai and Dr. Sonomura under the instruction of Takahisa Kandori and only two of those knew what the system really did and the requirements for it to function at all.
 
  
Maki Sonomura, a young woman going to St. Hermelin Highschool, served as a kind of power source for the system but also, subconciously, is the mind that directs it but the system itself creates a place whether it be a city or a building or a pocket dimension that is wholly influenced by her subconcious and thoughts. However, inside any mind there are shadows, and use of the DVA system has a tendency to let them loose in the confined area. The system isn't entirely reliable and more than one scientist has been putting on Kandori's chopping block for misusing the device--or trying to tell Kandori not to misuse it himself.

In the simplest terms, using the DVA system creates a TV Dungeon in the real world. It is fully functional within the Dark Hour and the TV Dungeons but there are reports of 'leakage' of the Dark Hour into the space created by the DVA System and, similarly, using it in a TV Dungeon is eerily easy.

In the strictest of terms, what the prototype and only extant model of the DVA did was create a pocket dimension, carved out of the folds of reality. This reality was shaped and directed by the mind of the individual within the machine--for that was the secret of the system. A human needed to be present within the machine for it to function, and not just any sort of human would do. Only certain people were compatible with the DVA. Of course, a machine of such great power did inflict certain stresses upon the psyche. Some people... broke, compatible or not.
  
In less simple terms, the DVA System is capable of creating and breaching dimensional barriers based on the capabilities and resonances of the being guiding the core of the system. The dimensional spaces invoked using the DVA system can be wide-ranging and complex, limited only by the person within the core. The vast majority of the time, this has been Maki Sonomura, but she was not the first... Nor could she be the last. The talents and requirements to be an effective core for the DVA system are not common, however, making the potential field of subjects fairly rare.

"Do you wonder what it's like living in a permanent imagination? Sleeping to escape reality, but you like it like that."


Now destroyed, the DVA, or the Dimensional Variance Accelerator, was the brainchild of SEBEC and the particular efforts of former CEO Takahisa Kandori along with the researchers Setsuko Sonomura and Dr. Nikolai, the latter two of whom still work with SEBEC. Their goal was to create a weapon; in a sense, they may have succeeded.

In the strictest of terms, what the prototype and only extant model of the DVA did was create a pocket dimension, carved out of the folds of reality. This reality was shaped and directed by the mind of the individual within the machine--for that was the secret of the system. A human needed to be present within the machine for it to function, and not just any sort of human would do. Only certain people were compatible with the DVA. Of course, a machine of such great power did inflict certain stresses upon the psyche. Some people... broke, compatible or not.

Experiments on the first-isolated compatible subject, Maki Sonomura, eventually resulted in the creation of Mikage-cho, a world which continues to linger on even without the DVA's direct influence. Later, the machine fell into the hands of Kandori himself, who attempted to use it to become a god, only to meet his end at the hands of those who defied him. It passed from his possession to others, until the overtaxation of the machine by Masahiko Irie and Mikiya Ryouhara in the creation of the pocket dimension Maboroshi broke it, rendering it inert and nonfunctional.
