Hello! I’m RaikkaSei! Call 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 ntioned in the story itself. If there is any art, they will be made by , except when it is said explicitly that it’s not and will be found in comnts. All information will be explained in ti as the story progresses, and if you would like to know them as they co, 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 ans none and A ans highest (as of now)
- There is no one who is Category S, as it was the category used way back in ti as the highest. It is being debated if this will be used as the highest again.
- Mana Reserves is tested four tis through a person’s lifeti: ages 7, 15, 23 and 30
- Each test is categorized within 4 ranks, 4 to 1, 4 is Untrained, 3 is Low Interdiate, 2 is Interdiate 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 improvents 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 sothing 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 sotis 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 ans they do not have any abilities either. They are vastly outnumbered now, and slowly dwindling in number. An almost extinct race, really.
- Hiallns (hee-mah-lens): These are the modern sapiens that were able to adapt to the mana-rich environnt. They develop an extra limb or body part that was the result of their adaptability. Sotis, they just look like pure sapiens, and their difference is really their ability to survive surrounded by mana throughout the day. These are what most of the characters in the story would be.
- Oeglinns (oug-lens): These are the first half of the precedent generation of Hiallns. They were the earliest version, but they were not born, they were modified sapiens. Their heritage is strong enough that their offspring is automatically Oeglinns until centuries or even millennials worth of generations. They may appear like a regular sapiens since they can hide their horns, which cos from their head and curves to et the other end, forming a circle.
- Daeglinns (dey-glens): These are the second half of the precedent generation of Hiallns. They are also modified sapiens. They are like Oeglinns, the only difference is their appearance. They may also appear like regular sapiens but they have series of lines from their neck and chest, almost reminiscent of gills from fishes or underwater animals.
In summary for no. 2, almost all characters to be encountered will be Hiallns, unless stated otherwise ^^
3. Bloodline vs Heritage
- Bloodline is the imdiate family mbers and close cousins or just direct generations.
- Heritage is when the person is very far in branch, roots or generation from the ancestor.
- These may be interchanged by characters in the story because of their personal beliefs. But the description here is what I will be following ^^
- Bloodline or Heritage doesn’t automatically ans person will look similar to the another family mber. So features might appear on one and doesn’t on the other.
4. Abilities
- If Mana is the bread, Abilities is the butter.
- Abilities allow creation or molding of a certain object
- These aren’t categorized by strength but by the type: Elental, Artificial and Non-linear.
- Elental: Things that can be found in nature. The list only includes water, fire, air, earth, light and dark
- Artificial: Things that are man-made or so elental mixtures. So examples are: chains, lava, wood, etc
- Non-Linear: Those that aren’t elental or artificial, they are all Non-linear examples are: summoning, invisibility, teleportation, space etc
- Person’s ability is not recorded until Low Interdiate rank.
- Usually shows up before the first test for mana reserves, but could be delayed until before Low Interdiate, hence the late recording.
5. Aura
- This is just how mana appears for those looking. It may look like transparent fla surrounding a person. Inner color depicts heritage:
- Oeglinns have orange
- Daeglinns have green
- Hiallns have violet
- While Outer colordepicts ability type:
- Elental has blue
- Artificial has yellow
- Non-Linear has red
- It can also show signs of abnormality in a person’s status, such as if poisoned or unconsciousness. A person with no aura ans either dead or sapien.
- Any non-humanoid will appear to have different inner and outer colors than the humanoid ones ntioned. Usually dependent on their origin.
6. Brief History
- The world is called Yaedrial (yey-dree-al). It’s a spherical world that has more water than land. Though there are a lot of islands around, the world has two big, main landmasses, the north, Aquitt (ah-quit) and the south, Saqrine (sack-reen). There are a few minor landmasses but those are the main two.
- Most towns or villages that are small enough than a city will be nad by what their village usually provides, so there will be common town or village nas like paper, wheat, corn, etc.
- There was a 3-hundred year war in the past, which will be explained more as the story goes but it is what paved the path for the categories and the testings done on the ages ntioned earlier.
- How Oeglinns and Daeglinns ca to be will also be explained in the story in the future.
That’s about it. Oh dang, that’s a long one! Thank you for reading this! Hope you have a great one! RaikkaSei out for now~ ^^
