《The Violet Dawn (a dark litRPG adventure)》Glossary
Advertisement
Hello guys, after a series of specific questions about some systems in the novel I have realized I may need to make a Glossary.
I decided to make it to explain/emphasize some things to avoid reader misunderstanding because I may have not explained it properly in the chapter/ or they accidentally overlooked/forgot. If you are sure you understood every system I introduced in the book (power system, world structure, etc,) please note that this may not be directed for you.
It can also serve readers who want to remember some details/readers who put the novel on-hold for a while and returned. Please note that this page will expand as more and more things are introduced to the story.
Power system
The power system in the book is unlike other LitRPGs as there is more than levels. Magician Ranks are the main way to define a character's power level.
Introduced Magician Ranks: Apprentice Magician, True Magician and Skilled Magician. Each rank is further divided into 6 grades: Normal, Copper, Bronze, Silver, Gold and Diamond. And each grade is also further divided into 20 levels.
Mana Circulation: the act of breaking through to the next grade within a level, (for example: Normal-->Copper.) This upgrade involves a quality boost to stats, meaning- each stat point is "worth" more than in the previous circulation. For example: 1 stat point in the previous grade are worth 1.5 stat points in the next grade, 2 are worth 3. In simpler terms, if there is a Gold Apprentice Magician with 700 stat points, once he reaches the Diamond Grade it would be akin to having 1050 stat points in the Gold Grade.
Mana Evolution: the act of breaking through to the next rank (for example: Diamond Apprentice Magician-->Normal True Magician.) The process is similar to Mana Circulation, however, it grants more stat benefits, and the qualitative change of the stats is far higher.

How does the power system affect Kiera? As you know, Kiera has many boosts that make her able to fight people above her level. However, due to the qualitative change the stats undergo, her ability to skip levels will be permanently restricted to a few grades even as her boosts' power grow and she won't ever be able to skip six whole grades to fight a whole rank above her.
Introduced Mana Beast Ranks: Awakened Beast Rank.
The only beast rank currently introduced is the Awakened Beast Rank. But, it is quite different from the introduced magician ranks as this rank has three tiers. Tier 1=Apprentice, Tier 2= True, Tier 3= Skilled. Each Tier is further divided into 120 levels, while each 20 levels represent a grade.
Example:
Normal: 1-20
Copper: 21-40
Bronze: 41-60
Silver: 61-80
Gold: 81-100
Diamond:101-120
Attributes: attributes are akin to "classes" in other novels, attributes are either inherited from parents, a Lineage (e.g: Tyrannical Lightning Lineage,) or are naturally granted by the system at birth. The ranks of the normal attributes are as followed: Basic, Rare, Unique, Transcendent and Supreme. While the ranks of fused attributes are as followed: Prime (generally weaker than Supreme Attributes, but the top ones are equal), Sovereign, Absolute
More information about attributes will be introduced as the story progresses.
Bloodline Ranks: introduced in the second arc of the story (Royal Blood Palace) and are as followed: Common, Rare, Special, Ancient, Primal, Pureblood Primal. The importance of bloodlines and their perks will be later expanded in the story.
Mana Armaments: special weapons made of unique metal that was bathed in pure mana for thousands of years. Only True Magicians can properly use this weapons’ benefits. Their ranks are as followed: Common, Masterwork and Grand.
More information about this type of arms will be introduced as the story progresses.
Please note that none of this information is considered a spoiler, all of this was introduced in the novel and I organized it for your convenience. If you have any further questions, please consider joining the discord server: https://discord.gg/KSnJKrCb

Oh, the Cultivator's Treasure, the most powerful group of mercenaries—and cultivators—to ever exist in the Eight Kingdoms.

And now that the Eight Kingdoms are no more, and the Jade Immortal slowly grows his hold on the North, it's up to Hari to find the Cultivator's Treasure again and bring them back together. But do they even exist? Who knows? Follow Hari and her search for the Cultivator's Treasure, while she tries to find her place in a world filled with war. - - [I hope you all enjoy the story.

Flame Beneath The Snowfall
Alto is a world governed by Tones. Magic, as one might call it. Manifested through deep mental and physical conditioning, one can control the Tones in a way that is unique to them. The power to store items in gems, transfer life, affect a person's mind, and even the more primal abilities such as control of the elements. Those who have these supernatural abilities are called 'Vassals.' People that fully manifest their abilities are not as common as one might think, and not all Vassals acquire their ability through practice, given if conditions are met. In fact, those who had received much trauma manifest the Tones more frequently, albeit spontaneously. However, the rare kind of Vassals are those who manifest it from childhood. A gift, but not without its repercussions. Alto is stuck in a transitional era, where the line between modern and dated technology is blurred. One can travel to a city that has a tall skyline, bustling with people in sophisticated clothing, or a mere town governed by a lord, all the while riding on a powered vehicle. Cultures vary: Some turn to the more dated practices such as castes, others are more inclined to set equal footing on their people, led by nobility. Some are dedicated to become scholars, studying Alto's Tones, while others set foot on hunts, protecting lone towns from the creatures of some of the still-untamed lands. And the Vassals? Those willing are took under The Organization, an elusive group, its presence said to permeate all throughout Alto, taking care of Rogue Vassals that abuse their abilities and other businesses related to their side. But what is this story all about, you may ask? Well, set your sights on the upper portions of this huge landmass that is Alto. Yes, the 'whole' world is called Alto, but that is because the majority of the known people live on this large continent. Relieve yourself of the worrying tensions everywhere, and see the white snow. Trace the piercing mountaintops and focus your eyes between the valley. A town sits there. Mido. After realizing that the memories only left in his mind was the night of his town's imminent destruction in flames, a boy finds himself grasping for every fiber of his life as he lays down flat on the ground. Beneath him was soot mixed with the white snow. Fortunately, a group of investigators, who were supposed to answer their call for help, saved him from his sorry state. With a newfound second wind, but hampered by his loss of memory, he must solve his own case: Who had the audacity to set Mido, his town, aflame? Flame Beneath the Snowfall focuses on action, with a sense of adventure, but mostly the discovery of an outside world, and the protagonist's exposure to it. Add in a whisk of soft magical elements, and you get a story that I hope will be interesting to the readers. That is not to say that my work is without the sense of unnerving atmosphere, however. As a forewarning, there are elements of gore, horror, minor elements of mental trauma, etc. so it is not for all audiences. *The book is already completed. Although I have plans to continue the story (it would have to involve much larger scope in terms of world-building), I have yet to decide when to start the next entry.
