Powers and Ranks

At the age of 13, every single child gains power. On the day of their 13th birthday, everyone has to go to a ranking centre and get themselves ranked by the special tech created by a genius ranker, Daniel Li.

Each power is ranked by its usefulness for society. 

----

In this world, villains and heroes exist, but only rank C+ are able to become heroes. So, most of the time, anyone with a low rank is mocked and looked down upon, especially the F ranks. 

Students study in schools that specialise in training students overall, regardless of whether they want to be a hero or not, since it's life skills. Anyone can be attacked by villains since everyone has powers.

There are mandatory hero classes, which are:

- Basic Magic

- Basic Weapon

- First Aid

Those who get a rank above C are allowed to pick hero electives, while the rest can choose the normal classes.

Humans are classified into different ranks and classes.

Ranks are: SS, S, A, B, C, D, F.

Classes are: Warrior, Defender, Shooter, Healer, Stratagist, Scientist and Engineer. 

Classes are only appointed to people who have the ability to be heroes.

Each person specialises depending on their power. Every person has a name to their power, but not everyone reveals the name of their power, as it can be a disadvantage to them. 

For example, a character with the power named [Iron Wall] is a defender class at B grade. While Iron is strong, it's not the strongest, but good enough to defend. They are able to help defend groups with their power, acting like an iron wall, shielding people from most harm!

We also have people with powers such as [Purify Water], which would be a rank D. It is useful to purify contaminated water for society, but not useful for battle as a hero. 

Then we also have people with powers such as [Sight of accuracy], which allows the user to measure everything accurately in size. They can look at an item and tell the accurate size of it to the mm, always. This is a rank F power as it's not very useful due to measuring sticks being available. 

While everyone has specific abilities, everyone still has the basics of magic, which can be used in weapons, spells, and to activate magical items. But to normally use and excel in battle, your magic stat needs to be extremely high just to even reach Rank C. Magicians A and above normally have an ability that is related to magic, placing them in a higher rank.

Overall, with powers, you also have rare people who are able to get stronger and get their power reevaluated, but it's not very likely.
