《Soulbound Hunter》The World of Thrae — A Compendium
Advertisement
The World-building
The World Physics of Thrae is not a typical gaming-world per se. However, you could say that this world dwells in a state of Romanticism and Fictional Imagination, while traces of Realism and Pragmatism are entrenched within. Thus, a movement’s momentum, weight differences, gravity, and other factors may influence an action's outcome.
Stabbing someone with a knife while standing still versus stabbing someone with running momentum is not equal.
A Hunter’s Health points may remain full (100/100). However, this does not mean that the Hunter does not feel hunger or other abnormal conditions. The same goes for fatigue. A fatigued Thraen will notice his or her drop in focus, increased tiredness, dehydration, and other physical or psychological changes in their bodies.
Minor spoiler if you haven't read the Prologue yet:
The Soul Window can only be acquired by an Awakened. Any Thraen denizen can see a Hunter's Soul Window. Yet, only the Soul Window owner can interact with it, with a few exceptions, such as Trading. It is so far unclear who or what created the Soul Window System.
The Elements of Thrae
Coming Soon!
Rating list – updated from Chapter 11.
Dungeon Ratings: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Heroic, ???, ???
So far in the story, the Heroic Dungeon Rating has been introduced. Do you have a (un)pleasant feeling higher-rated Dungeons will befall Thrae? A reminder that any rated Dungeon has built-in Levels, such as Silver-rated Goblin Hideout Lv2, introduced in chapter 9. A higher rating is equivalent to higher-tiered monsters and higher monster density, often synonymous with better Dungeon Rewards. A higher Dungeon Level is equivalent to higher-leveled monsters.
Quest Ratings: Bronze, Silver, Gold, ???, ???, ???
Same as Dungeons, but undecided after Gold Quest Rating. Note that Quests are further separated into Bronze, Bronze+, Bronze++, Silver, Silver+, etc.
Special Quests Rating: Unique, is always non-repeatable, and be combined with any other Quest Rating.

The Aspect of Fire
Wilhelm woke up and was immediately confused, even before he opened his eyes. Through some twist of fate the data-entering grunt was pulled into another world, one containing terrifying people wielding magic powers beyond what he thought possible, and - somehow comparatively less horrifying - actual monsters. The only saving grace is that through his transference, he has become one of those terrifying people, and he's not sure how he feels about it yet. Oh, and he landed on a boat. Branded a Sylum for the way others unlucky enough to be pulled across the fabric of space tended to go insane after arrival, he will need to navigate a land unlike his own in seemingly every way except for the flaws, all while attempting to maintain his morality, and more importantly, his sanity. With his crew at his side and disconcertingly dangerous magic proportionate to his physical ability, it will not be easy.
