NB: I will only be sharing what I've revealed in the story so far.
**RANKS:**
- Novice
- Intermediate
- Advanced
- Expert
- Master
- Grandmaster
- Paragon
*Note: Each rank has three sub-levels, for example; (Novice-, Novice, Novice+).*
**TALENT (Your talent determines your progression in the ranks):**
- Dormant: Cannot surpass the Novice rank in their lifetime.
- Unlocked: Can advance beyond the Novice rank but encounters a bottleneck at the Intermediate rank.
- Adept: Can reach at most the Expert rank but no further.
- Empowered: Can attain the Grandmaster rank.
- Transcendent: Can reach the Paragon rank.
- Mythical: *Coming Soon...*
*Note: Having a high talent means your body can simply contain/withstand/adapt to higher mana levels than someone with lower talent.)
**Bloodlines:** These are ancestral heritages that enhance an individual's strength. Various types of bloodlines exist in the human domain.
**TYPES:**
- Elemental Bloodline: The Ravensteins are known for their elemental bloodline, which awakens randomly. For instance, a father may have the ability to control fire, while his child can manipulate water.
*Note: More bloodline types to come.*
**Bloodline Ranks (Elemental Bloodline):** Ranks range from Level 1 to 5.
- Level 1: Can control elements only in contact with your body.
- Level 2: Can release elements from your body, for example, conjuring and projecting fire.
- Level 3: Can control elements within a certain range.
*Note: More levels to be revealed.*
**Arts:** These are techniques documented in books, where channeling your mana into the book transfers all information directly into your head.
**Art Ranks:** Arts are ranked based on potential. An art with dormant potential can only exhibit Novice rank power, while one with transcendent potential can eventually reach Paragon rank power.
**Normal Weapon Grades:** Weapons are graded from Novice rank to Paragon rank.
**Life Weapon:** These weapons grow with their user. If the user becomes a Paragon rank, the weapon evolves accordingly.
**Life Weapon Art Grade:** Life weapons have no grade, and the associated art also grows with its user.
