This one is basically just a writing prompt that I was going to get around to but never did.
The Transient Expanse
A world filled with billions of different species.
Most species can be categorized into three types.
Intelligents, Animals, and... Monsters.
Intelligents are quite simply those who have intelligence enough that they can communicate in some way, shape, or form.
Be it the average looking Human to the Volpheds, an above average intelligent species that looks as if a jellyfish and gorilla had an offspring.
The former communicates with others through speech, writing, art etc. The latter communicates in a very unique way. They simply put one of their appendages near or on someone and vibrate their muscles to mimic speech.
Fascinating isn't it? That's just the tip of the iceberg.
Animals are rather obvious, but don't underestimate the wildlife of this planet. Animals come in all shapes and sizes just as intelligents do.
From small round fluffballs called Phronz the size of a kitten to the Wyatatp, a squid like creature the size of a skyscraper.
Monsters are unique lifeforms mutated from either intelligents or animals. The mutation itself is caused by overconsumption of the mystical energy known as "mana" in this world.
Mana enables practitioners to perform superhuman feats.
A physically specialized practitioner allows one to move at speeds far above the normal and strength enough to crush metal with their bare hands.
While others who went a different path can bend the natural elements to their will causing unnatural weather phenomena at the peak of their power.
Everything is born with a limit of how much mana they can absorb. After reaching the limit they can expend all mana in their body to extend the limit slightly.
Those who ignore the limit succumb to mutation, turning into monsters losing their sense of self in the process of gaining power beyond their natural limits.
Our story starts with a young man reborn into this chaotic world with a natural mana limit of zero.
With no supernatural power how will he live in this world?
Using his OP as fuck System, obviously.
With the power of Valkyries and "God" on his side our hero(?), Crimson Apocalypse, will conquer the world and fulfill the dreams of many young men.
