This is the power ratio thingy that the story uses, it is also how Ami uses her analyzation ability and Grades her opponents.
The Basic Stats (ATK, DEF, SPD, etc) are Graded -E~EX*8 ---(that is Infinity for people whose computers can't read it)
If the Stat has *8 on it, that means it is beyond Universal comprehension and imagination.
Grades of E or lower are average people at their prime. Average people would be those without special titles or have no particular class such as Archer, swordsman, mage, etc. and you know have normal jabs such as field work or desk job (and we now how everyone loves paper work).
EX is normally a God Rank. If any one of your stats are at an EX lvl, you are permitted to challenge any god for their title or if selected by the god, to succeed them. You can also register a challenge in the capital City Babylon, and filling out the right paper work could make it so that the god may not refuse the challenge. (In short make the most taunting essay you can think of to piss them off).
If ALL of your stats are a minimum of C or higher, you are permitted to apply for a class. (Normally those of D rank are student/trainees/and other types still in the process of learning). Also some of the more eccentric classes require at lest one of a certain stat to be at a B minimum. These classes are like Ninja, Blacksmith, etc. Basically advance classes that are not form any branch of a normal class like how a Night, Lord, or Samurai would come from the root class of the swordsman.
There is also a Weapon grade. Basically how well you use a weapon
*PLEASE NOTE THAT THESE GRADES AND EVERYTHING ELSE HERE ONLY APPLY TO MY STORIES AND NOTHING ELSE*
Time And Place Of The Story
The dimension that Riaru and Ami Travail in is at the center of all universes and has no particular time frame so even though you could be in a 700BC farm house, don't surprised if there is a computer. This dimension is also closes and parallel to the land of gods.
The reason as to why there is no particular time frame is because it pulls grand cities that have existed in other world and merges them here. Major cities are Camelot, Atlantis, and The capital city Babylon. There are people who have left these cities and live in smaller towns. I will make visits to The Kingdom of Ceyla, (owned by Angelica Kusimichi and Angel Kusimichi) but I wont do anything big there until I full understand the story of that place and have authors permission of use.
*ALSO if you have your own little world that has something amazing in it, then tell me about it, this will help me ad more travailing and side stuff to my story that way it wont be straight through all plot. Also don't worry I want to keep it short so you wont see to much of any filler*
The reason this dimension exist is to gather and train advanced warriors, the gods originally created this world in hope to find protectors and successors. It's basically a type of afterlife, although because they are not really dead they are still capable of dying and there souls are recycled through the process of reincarnation. They can also start families and do not have to do the thing the god originally built the world for. However this keeps a balance in the labor force such as farmers, office workers, and warriors.
If you where the king of the major cities or an Epic hero you will not die of age nor will you age at all. Examples would be in Camelot King Arthur and his Knights of The Round as Still there, but because there is no Major need for them to maintain what they did when they where still back in England, some have took up jobs as teachers at the schools that the gods set up to maintain the original purpose of this world. (Even though Merlin is now the in charge of the scholarship Branch of learning (Mage/Wizard/Alchemist basically compose the root class of Scholar) He must still maintain his standing at King Arthur's side.
Just Because There is not much need for Knights to do what they once did doesn't mean they are not need, Sir Tristan is one of the High Knights that Keeps an eye on the underworld regions making sure they do not attack the peaceful cities. (One of my stories involves Niflheim Rising up and building power and tries to conquer the rest of the world (Like the underworld isn't big enough)
The Class system is complicated but you will pick it up as you read the story, but I don't really intend on putting it here at the moment because I don't really understand it yet.
The Root classes are composed of
Scholar (learning) Normally for Magic and Science
Fighter (use of hand and leg fighting) Examples Monks, Taekwondo, and brawlers/Martial arts in general (I didn't say unarmed for the description because any of these classes can pick something up and manipulate for their fighting style, but do not necessarily have a primary weapon.)
Swordsman (primary weapon swords duh) Examples would be Samurai/Knight/Lancer generally anything with a blade: Sword/Lance/Scythe/etc. However anything other then a sword is for more advance classes of the swordsman branch. Such as the Jedi class (yes we are putting Jedi in here) you can only use a light saber if you are a Jedi
Sharp Shooter (projectiles) basically Archers Gunslingers and Snipers
Thief (The Shady/silent people basically) this people do not have to be thieves nor do they have to be evil or shady, they just have to be generally silent. Examples of this are Rouges, Assassins, actual Thieves, and Stalkers
There is also Hybrid classes and Crossover classes.
Example of Hybrid: Mage Knights (for FF fans the red mage) this class can use both magic and Swords. Other examples are Sages that can use all types of mage and are not limited to Healing/Buff, Offensive, or arcane arts.
Example of Crossover: If you want you can be both an Assassin and a samurai or switch between the two at any time, because they have the same general status build they are more the same to each other how ever if you are an Assassin becoming a Samurai your weapon ability Grade will not be ass high are a true samurai's
The Eccentric or special classes are basically a class you have to start at Birth or stand on their own Such as:
Sword Dancers (Can use an unlimited number of blades, Is not a part of the Swordsman classes because this is the starting point, in order to become a Sword dancer you must MASTER using 4 DIFFERENT blades at the same time by the age of 5yrs, you would seriously have to be born as a sword dancer or form some sort of pact via (most commonly, not that it's common at all) blessing of a dying sword dancer to acquire the skills of a sword dancer. Sword Dancers are probable the hardest people to find. And has become an official law set by the World/Universe/Daemon/People/and gods themselves agreed that All Sword dancers are Granted Absolute Immortality. This law MAY NOT be altered/removed unless The World, The Universe, All People (not including the sword dancers), All Daemons, and all gods can agree to do so. There are Only Three recorded Sword Dancers to ever (and still) exist)
Ninjas (Ninjas are not a part of the Thief classes because the head of the ninja comity is stubborn and we can't call the thief class ninja because that is some what unfair in the hole western and eastern culture thing)
Blacksmith (this is one of those stand on your own classes where you are not affiliated with any other class)
Pirate (well you see if we have ninjas we have to have pirates and if anything their way of fight is the most eccentric) Honestly it's almost like comparing a street fighter (no not the game) to an actual Martial artist
And others that I'm still thinking of and will be add as thought of.
