TCG: Of Monsters and Man

In a world run by a gacha, your life can be determined by your luck...but is that all there really is to it. Is luck the only determing force in this world of beasts and humanity? ---------------‐-------------------------‐-------------------------‐-------------- I'll probably update the synopsis as time goes on... Anyway, as this is fundamentally based upon a gacha-like system I will be using a real life number generator to determine a lot of the things present. I think it would be cool as well as make it a little more realistic. Of course I have a few ideas on how to make the character manipulate the numbers ;)

Author's Note: Before Vol.1

I would like to use this Note as a place to explain a few things. As for what I will explain, I will bw splitting it up into a few sections to make it easier on you, the reader!

Section 1: for anyone that want's to skip this Note and go straight to reading.

Section 2: A bit of an explanation on my thoughts and the novel itself

Section 3: A summary of chapters 1-5

Section 1:

Chapters 1-5 are going to be mostly info dump with a little bit of character introduction and are labeled as "Info Dump", as of right now I am trying to build these chapters to be optional so feel free to skip them.

They explain a great deal of the world I am trying to build, the main character himself, and the way the world works as well. I know they are boring and not very enjoyable, however, I am trying to write them as interesting as I can.

Like I said, these are optional and I will be adding a summary at the bottom in case you want to skip them. It won't be as infornative, but it will give you the neccesary information to enjoy the book as well.

Section 2:

Here I will be explaining a few thoughts about the novel.

First I want to talk about the concept, I like summoning novels and I like when said novels have summons in the form of a card. Therefore I made the character reincarnate into a TCG or trading card game world.

Now I know it's a TCG but they won't be sending out summons or anything as you would in a turn based TCG. I want it to be realistic as well so combat will be real time and not turn based.

Second I want to talk about the gacha format and the system, the main character as well as everyone else will have access to both the system and the gacha.

The main character will have a "tutorial AI" but thats only because he was reincarnated and it is to fill in any imformation he might be lacking in the world. Since even though he inherited the bodies memories, he is still the person he was on Earth. The AI will also dissappear after the "tutorial" or the info dump is over.

The gacha system itself will be based on a real life Random number Generator or something else i decide to use, in which the percentage of picking a rarity from G-SSS will be reflected upon.

I haven't come up with it as of now but I'll be researching gacha formulas and try to replicate with some modifications since I do have to get the plot moving XD

The modifiers will likely be based on luck maybe a percentile increase or something, for example if its a .00001% chance of getting a SSS (1 of 100,000) then each point of luck in creases the chance by 1% of the original. So 1 luck would be .00001 + (.00001*.1) = .000011% instead. (1.1 of 100,000)

Obviously thats not that great of an increase, so that probably isn't going to be the way it is and was merely an example of how I could do things for visual reference.

It's also something I will referance when I actually have to come up with the formula XD
