Type: Foundational World-System (Superpower Cosmology) Era: 150+ years into humanity’s super-galactic expansion. Core Identity: The Split Nexus of Reality—background law, middleground stage, and frontground battleground of all awakened power. ⚙️ Core System Mechanics Superpower Ranking (Minor → Major): Minor Level 1–4: Small, Medium, Huge, Giant. Major Level 0–10: Measured by scope and priority over reality itself. Fixed Rarity: 1 in 1,000 awaken Level 0. 1 in 10,000 awaken Level 1. 1 in 100,000 awaken Level 2. 1 in 1,000,000 awaken Level 3. 1 in 10,000,000 awaken Level 4. 1 in 100,000,000 awaken Level 5. 1 in 10,000,000,000 awaken Level 6. 1 in 100,000,000,000 awaken Level 7. 1 in 1,000,000,000,000 awaken Level 8. 1 in 10,000,000,000,000 awaken Level 9. 1 in 100,000,000,000,000 awaken Level 10. Twin Superpowers: 1 in 100,000,000 awaken two powers instead of one. The higher the grade, the rarer the chance. Twin Level 9s or 10s are nearly mythic—living paradoxes of supremacy. Catalysts of Awakening: No Level 10 superpower awakens naturally. Each requires a catalyst of at least Small Level 9. Catalyst resonance is unstable, often reshaping entire destinies. Unawakened Function: From Small Level 7 upward, existence-altering powers may partially function while unawakened (≈0.1%). Level 10 powers are never dormant: even unawakened, they operate at minimum 1%, exerting constant, terrifying influence. At 0.1%, a Small Level 10 already eclipses a Giant Level 9 at 100%. 🌌 The Split Aetherion Nexus Background: The Aetherion Nexus defines the rules of rarity, growth, and supremacy—the hidden lattice of superpower probability. It whispers into awakenings, deciding who holds fragments of infinity. Middleground: The Nexus serves as the cosmic crossroad, where colonies rise and prodigies clash. Every academy, faction, and rebellion traces its roots back to Nexus probability and catalyst laws. Frontground: Level 10 supremacy ensures that every narrative converges here. The moment an unawakened Level 10 stirs, the Aetherion Nexus bends reality into battlefields, alliances, and transcendence. 🌊 Aura of the Aetherion Nexus To sense it is to stand inside a living equation: probability, supremacy, and destiny colliding. It feels like inevitability unfolding—every breath is chance, every step is law, every gaze is the judgment of infinity. 🔻 Narrative Hooks Catalyst Wars: Entire factions hunt for Level 9 catalysts, knowing they are keys to birthing Level 10 supremacy. Twin Paradox: Legends of twin Level 10s haunt empires—an impossible split that could rewrite the Nexus itself. Supremacy Divide: The unbridgeable gulf between Level 9 and Level 10 defines both tragedy and transcendence. Living Equation: Some believe the Nexus itself may awaken—becoming not just a system, but a being.
