SysDi 0.5- Auxiliary Chapter
Hello! I’m RaikkaSei! Call me Sei for short! First of all, thanks so much for the interest! I’m very excited to share this with everyone here. This is not the first Chapter, but a list of information that will be mentioned in the story itself. If there is any art, they will be made by me, except when it is said explicitly that it’s not and will be found in comments. All information will be explained in time as the story progresses, and if you would like to know them as they come, feel free to skip this and go forwards to Chapter 1. Otherwise, feel free to continue here! ^^
1. Mana
- The biggest staple in every fantasy book. The bread to a butter, if you will.
- Mana Reserve is Categorized from letter Z to A, Z means none and A means highest (as of now)
- There is no one who is Category S, as it was the category used way back in time as the highest. It is being debated if this will be used as the highest again.
- Mana Reserves is tested four times through a person’s lifetime: ages 7, 15, 23 and 30
- Each test is categorized within 4 ranks, 4 to 1, 4 is Untrained, 3 is Low Intermediate, 2 is Intermediate and 1 is Matured. All people reaches their highest potential at age 30, and it is very possible to still have a low Category letter even at that Matured rank since improvements for mana reserve can be limited.
- Quantity of Mana depends on the person’s heritage, not bloodline. Usually, doesn’t matter in the younger years, but definitely something that can be used as privilege, such as if the person is a direct Oeglinn or Daeglinn descendant, they usually have more mana reserves.
- It is everywhere, in the air, the sunlight, the moonlight and the food being eaten. However, mana in the air is weaker in the morning than in the evening.
2. Races/Species
- Sapiens(say-pee-en): These are the pure humans that did not contain any Oeglinn or Daeglinn heritage. They are very few, and sometimes precious. They are highly susceptible to mana as if it is poison. Think of albino in real life having really bad reaction to the sun. They can still live in this fantasy world, but they cannot leave their houses in the evening. They are often found in islands that do not have or less the influence of mana in the air and water, which means they do not have any abilities either. They are vastly outnumbered now, and slowly dwindling in number. An almost extinct race, really.
