Just as beasts and monsters had levels and classifications for their strength, humans did as well.
The ones created first were the scientific terms for these levels. They were named simply as "Origin Levels."
The Origin Level of a Sequencer was the most generally accurate way to classify them. There were twenty-seven in total, cycling from one to nine 3 times to separate the three most important changes in a Sequencer's power.
From Origin Level 1-1 to Origin Level 1-9 was the so-called "Entrance." Formally, it was called the "Nubile State," but that was never going to be used outside of official documents. People at this level were the "Sprouts," or the "Newbies," depending on what Stratum one was raised in.
Origin Level 3-9 was the Starlight Class that humanity considered its current peak.
As for where Gio fell on that scale…
'I'm not even a 1st Stage Sequencer yet.'
