As per poll results, this will be the first ‘meta’ topic I’ll be covering.

There are 2 types of skills.

[Ac]

Active

Need the user to willingly trigger them. Consume MP.

[Pa]

Passive

Activate when certain outside conditions are met, or are always active. Do not consume MP.

MP refers to Magic Power. In this universe, ‘magic’ and ‘skill-induced’ are synonyms and are used interchangeably by most.

There are 3 categories of skills.

High-level

From S+ to A-

Mid-level

From B+ to C-

Low-level

D+ and below

Everyone is born with hundreds of skills, but most of them will not raise above F (the lowest level) throughout the lifetime of the user. These “ulta-low” skills will still be possible to use though, but only with outside assistance (like magic artefacts).

D is the average level one person can achieve by working hard, or with some special training. To raise a skill higher, the user needs to either really specialize in it, or, more likely, be born with it.
