From the link I posted, Minerva is similar to a Summon, but the purpose behind her actions is to follow the intentions of the Lifestream.
Maybe she is just a powerful Summon? Or maybe she is just like the "Living Tribunal" of FFVII, and can tap into the power of the entire Lifestream("The One Above All" of FFVII) if necessary, to follow the intentions of it?
Who knows?
No.. Minerva is still Minerva.. she just doesnt get the power boost from extra lifestream returning to her, she still has the set amount of liefstream to do basically anything she wants, btw.. Nihilus cannot absorb lifestream.
sure he can
it's just like the Force except less powerful
if we go on "but they can't do that because this place is different" then all sorts of character abilities and powers are screwed over
Testaments for example can't even exist in fights using that rule because there's no U.M.N. outside of Xenosaga
so we just assume their powers work even if the character they fight is from a different universe

And how exactly would Nihilus absorb the lifestream? He would be killed if he got exposed to it.. not anyone can touch lifestream, Sephiroths original body was disintegrated by the lifestream, Denzels foster mom was killed instantly when she got exposed to it.. ur thinking that lifestream is the same thing as the spirit energy nihilus is able to drain on SW planets, which it isnt.
