What is Seria?
Seria is the planet this story takes place on. It is also a variant of Earth In another Dimension. It has 6 Continents:
The UN(United Nation)
The Western Province
The Central Powers
Eastern Empire
Del Sur Dominio
Badlands
The first 5 continents are all human civilizations, while the Badlands are an uninhabited zone and are mostly unexplored and crawling with Titans.
What are Titans?
Titans are creatures that have been on Seria just as long as humans and maybe even longer. Due to a natural instinct they actively hunt and consume humans. They come in all shapes and sizes. They have been classified to fit into Ranks E-S(S being the most dangerous, E being the least):
Beasts- E tier
Menaces- F tier
Kaiju- D tier
Fiends- C tier
Mastodons(Mastos)- B tier
Behemoths- A tier
Goliaths- S+ tier
Titan ranks largely correlate to intelligence.
What is the Stalker Association?
The Stalker Association Is one of few corporations that fight back against the onslaught of the Titans. The UN government created it to protect people from the dangers of Titans and was the first to create a government branch like this in the world, that allowed mutated to fight against the monsters. Other Associations in the other continent's government soon emerged following the same system. These are the Ranks for the mutated:
Elitist
Captain
Commander
Sage
Sovereign
Each rank has levels to it called stars. For a example someone could be a 5* Elitist or a 4* Sage. The Higher the star, the higher the rank.
What are Affinites?
Affinities are one's reflection of their soul. A person can inherit Affinities from family members and ancestors. They can also have extra affinities but can only derive them from their parents. An Affinity can only awaken when one's soul source emerges. Affinities are powered by little usage of Pakto but can still be exhausted like a physical muscle. Affinities are often awakened through very intense experiences.
What Is Pakto?
Pakto is the fire that flows through every natural existing thing and being throughout the entire universe and beyond. It makes up the very basis of everything that exists, and with time, One can learn how to control this omniscient spark. It is somewhat conscious, and does not answer everyone's call to it. Meaning not everyone can use it. Pakto also connects the user to the world. A person's own Pakto is held in their Spirit vein when they mutate.
What is a Spirit Vein?
A spirit vein is what holds one's Pakto. It also contains your soul source in its very center. It has 7 layers one can attain. Each layer makes your Pakto more potent and pure.
Spirit Vein Layer Ranks:
1st Layer: Dormant
2nd Layer: Awakened
3rd Layer: Emperor
4th Layer: Legacy
5th Layer: Reverent
6th layer: Sacred
7th Layer: Divine
Each Layer can be obtained by building up your spirit pathways. One can do this by accumulating enough Pakto Essence. Once enough Pakto essence is acquired a spirit pathway will form.
What is Pakto Essence?
Pakto essense is not Pakto, but instead a part of it that helps build spirit pathways. One can acquire Pakto essence by slaying a being that Pakto dwells in.(Mutated, Titans, etc.)
Spirit Pathways(AKA- Pathways):
Pathways are what people use to guide their Pakto. They are also what connect each layer of your spirit vein to each other. There are seven pathways for each spirit vein layer. The only way to build a new spirit vein layer is to create the 7 pathways.
