POWER SYSTEM GUIDE

Hey everyone,

This is just a quick reference guide for the power system in Chronicle Zero. I know keeping track of ranks and colours can get confusing, so here's everything in one place. Bookmark this if you need to check back later!

MANA CORE RANKS

10 Known Ranks (each with Lower/Middle/Upper sub-tiers):

Novice - Grey Core

Apprentice - White Core

Adept - Red Core

Expert - Orange Core

Master - Yellow Core

Grandmaster - Green Core

Sage - Blue Core

Transcendent - Indigo Core

Sovereign - Violet Core

??? - Unknown

Important Notes:

The power gap between ranks increases exponentially as you climb higher.

CORRUPTED MONSTER RANKS

Corrupted monsters follow the same ranking system as humans:

Grey-rank (Novice equivalent)

White-rank (Apprentice equivalent)

Red-rank (Adept equivalent)

Orange-rank (Expert equivalent)

Yellow-rank (Master equivalent)

Green-rank (Grandmaster equivalent)

Blue-rank (Sage equivalent)

Indigo-rank (Transcendent equivalent)

Violet-rank (Sovereign equivalent)

Corrupted Rifts:

Tears in reality that spawn corrupted monsters

Colour-coded by rank (Grey through Violet)

Ancient Rifts:

Glow with golden/white light (not rank-coloured).

EQUIPMENT RANKS

Weapons, armour, and artifacts follow this hierarchy:

Common

Uncommon

Rare

Epic

Legendary

Mythic

Divine

???

That's it! I'll update this if new information becomes relevant to the story.

Oh, and before you ask: no, I'm not explaining the nations, the political systems, the hidden secrets, or any of the cool worldbuilding stuff here. You want lore? You want the plot? You want to know what's actually going on?

Read the damn chapters.

This is just the mechanics guide, so you don't get confused when someone mentions they're an "Upper Adept" or whatever.

Thanks for reading!
