About

Worldview: A world where modern civilization has collapsed into ruin. Humans mostly huddle together in shelters, while the surface is inhabited only by giant creatures and bandits. Synopsis: Suddenly, people were granted "Levels." A bloody struggle broke out as individuals fought to raise their levels. Survivors built shelters, recruited residents, and secured safe zones. Within these shelters, those with vested interests or high levels often prey upon the weak. Society: Political systems have vanished, buildings have crumbled, and the world has become a wasteland. Other Details: - For every level gained, an "Engram" is acquired. Engrams can be used to enhance technology or physical abilities. - There are different types of Engrams. Depending on which Engrams are chosen, growth varies significantly. Therefore, even at the same level, there are massive gaps in combat capability, physical prowess, and technical skill based on Engram configuration. - Experience points (EXP) are required to level up. - There are three primary ways to gain EXP: 1. Killing living creatures. This yields the most EXP. 2. Crafting items. 3. Gathering materials. This yields the least EXP. - The amount of EXP gained varies based on the difficulty of the action. - EXP is calculated as "Base EXP × Multiplier." Both base EXP and multipliers increase with difficulty. - The EXP required for the next level increases exponentially with each level gained. - Approximately 50 people live in each shelter. - Shelter facilities are reasonably well-equipped. Level Differences: - Lv. 1–10: Novice Hardly different from an ordinary person. Little combat experience; surface activity alone is dangerous. - Lv. 11–20: Beginner Physical abilities exceed an ordinary person's. Can handle small to medium creatures alone. - Lv. 21–30: Intermediate Physical abilities clearly surpass normal humans. Depending on equipment and Engrams, can fight large creatures. - Lv. 31–40: Advanced Possesses superhuman physical abilities. Those accustomed to combat can take on multiple enemies. - Lv. 41–50: Expert Clearly in a different league from average survivors. Combat specialists can solo dangerous large creatures. - Lv. 51–70: Powerhouse Possesses enough strength to overwhelm small groups alone. From this range, individual differences due to Engram builds become even more pronounced. - Lv. 71–90: Transcendent Greatly exceeds human physical limits. Those with powerful Engrams can change the course of a battle single-handedly. - Lv. 91–100: Apex The normal level cap. Very few reach this stage; they are the top-tier elites of humanity. - Lv. 101–125: Limit Break A realm unreachable by normal means. The level cap itself can be broken by fulfilling special conditions. Extremely few exceed Lv. 100, and Lv. 125 is considered the absolute maximum humanity can reach.
