   Abilities are ranked on a scale of 1.0 to 10.0, the level of an ability is determined by the combination of potential and mastery. Ability strength increases exponentially with level,

   There are abilities and machines that can gauge someone's current level accurately.

   Only "cripples" can have a level of 1.0, and do not have an ability

   While Level is typically directly tested through gauges, Level can also be calculated by calculating Level = (Potential * Mastery) / 10

   Potential represents the maximum capability of an ability, like Level it is rated from 1.0 to 10.0. Potential is hereditary and cannot be raised or lowered from it's initial value. It is the theoretical absolute "maximum" level an ability can reach.

   Potential can be calculated by calculating Potential = (Level * 10) / Mastery

   Mastery like level is rated from 1.0 to 10.0, and represents how skilled someone is with their ability, and how close to their potential they are. It is not something that can be outwardly measured unless level is somehow compared to potential.

   Someone with a mastery of 10.0 would have a level equal to their potential.

   Mastery can be calculated by calculating Mastery = (Level * 10) / Potential

   Note, the rating of individual stats doesn't particularly matter, it's about the level.

   All abilities have stats, that range on a scale of 1 to 10+ (Stats rarely, but can exceed 10 once someone becomes a god-tier), these stats are as follows,

   Power - An ability's capacity to cause physical damage, destruction, or output large amount of force.

   Defense - Counterpart to power, how much physical damage the ability user's can take be it directly or through things like a construct.

   Speed - How fast someone can move using their ability, either physically or through things like teleportation.

   Recovery - How quickly and how strongly someone can heal themselves or others, as well as use their ability in support ways such as strengthening others or mitigating status effects.

   Trick - Covers everything the other four stats do not, such as the complexity and versatility of an ability, and how cheat-y the ability can be.

   The stat total of an ability scales with it's level, all abilities except for meta abilities follow this chart. Higher Level means higher stats

   Entry settings

   Abilities are typically separated into individual ability types, and occasionally given a sub-type, and generally (Though not always) guide an ability's stat alignments.

   Augmentation - Augmentation abilities physically enhance a user’s body in some way, granting them things like enhanced strength, speed, or regeneration, though can be less simple. Due to the nature of these, they are both very common and tend to have lower limits on their potential. These are usually defined by low trick, with high overall stats in other regards.

   Projectile - Projectile abilities cause the user to be able to directly generate ranged attacks, usually composed completely of aura. These are very common types of abilities, and tend to require a lot of creativity to make up for their weaknesses. They are typically defined by a very high power, but very often have minimal defense and low recovery.

   Construct - Construct abilities allow the user to generate typically more fully physical objects, that generally last longer and can be passively sustained or controlled in some way. Constructs usually have a few of a set of defined weaknesses, and come in many shapes, sizes, and various levels, they usually have very high defense, and low speed. They are somewhat uncommon though not unusual.

   Medical - Medical abilities primarily serve a support focus, despite the name this may not always be healing, it’s just these abilities aren’t primarily combat focused. Because of this, while they may not measurably level very highly compared to other abilities at a similar level, they usually have capabilities in regards to recovery or trick that are FAR beyond abilities of a similar level, and are often defined by a low power. While not relatively rare, they are rare to find above mid-tier due to being ineffective in combat.

   Quantum - Quantum abilities are the most wide ranging category, and primarily are defined by the manipulation or creation of already existing things. They are ‘scientific’ abilities to a degree, and can range from manipulating naturally occurring forces, generating elements, to effectively anything that wouldn’t cleanly fit into another category. Because of how this is determined Quantum abilities are a bit rarer, and often defined by lacking weaknesses in any particular regard while also having a decent trick, though this varies heavily due to the variance of this category.

   Mental - Mental abilities are abilities with primary focus on affecting others or the user mentally in some way, this causes mental abilities to tend to be either very high or very low levels, and can cause these kinds of abilities to be very jumpy in terms of their level. These abilities are very rare, and are usually defined by exceptionally high trick stats but low stats otherwise, and are typically less bound to the hierarchy structure than other types of abilities due to how practically useful they are even if not as combat effective. Many times Mental abilities are given specific levels outside of what they are gauged as because of this.

   Meta - Meta abilities are defined by the fact they directly manipulate and interact with Aura in some way that other abilities don’t. These abilities are extraordinarily rare and are almost always extremely strong or extremely weak, but almost always have very high potentials. Often similar to mental abilities they will be rated directly by someone as opposed to being gauged because gauging is unreliable when someone can interact directly with aura, and that Meta abilities will typically have larger supplies of aura than similar leveled individuals. These abilities are almost always defined by inflated trick stats with much lower other stats. Meta abilities are the only ability that do not follow the stat-level chart.

   Unordinary is the story of a man with a powerful ability born in a world of cripples. The man only used his power for others, helping the weak, saving lives and spreading wealth. He ultimately dies but no-one was sad because he brought charity, allowing the world to become peaceful. The real world equivalent would likely be something along the lines of Superman.

   Unordinary has been branded by the Authorities as a controversial and highly illegal contraband due to the society-challenging ideas it presents: That high-tiers should use their abilities to help others, that even low-tiers have something valuable to offer, and that people from both ends of the ability spectrum should be able to co-exist as equals rather than master and servant. Its very mention can lead to government intervention.

   Many high-tiers who read Unordinary have been inspired by the book's message to turn to vigilantism.

   The book is by William H. Doe.

   Vigilantes are a group of individuals who illegally undertake law enforcement in their community without the consent of the Authorities. Vigilantes with a level of 5.0 or above are known as Superheroes or Super-vigilantes.

   The vigilante movement was started after the release of Unordinary by William H. Doe. People seemingly used to look up to them. However, people now look down on them and even decide to make a bet on which hero dies next. They are not trusted by the Authorities, as they believe anyone with these ideals needs to undergo a harsh readjustment program. The Authorities secretly funded EMBER to eliminate known vigilantes

   Every ability is categorized into one of the four tiers. Low, mid, elite, and high (god being a subcategory of high-tier). Colloquially, people prefer to use their tiers to show their strength rather than their exact ability level, tiers are simply a category despite this, and aren't individual ratings aside from a shorthand for someone's overall level.

   Low-Tier - Individuals with an ability level between 1.0 and 1.9 are considered low-tiers. Because of their weakness and defenselessness, low-tiers are considered the lowest social class and are treated as such. Likewise, stronger individual take pleasure in bullying or abusing low-tiers. Powerless individuals with no ability, better known by slurs such as cripple, having a level of 1.0. Low-tiers are relatively common, making up about 25% of the population. Cripples are about as rare as god-tiers.

   Mid-Tier - Individuals with an ability level between 2.0 and 3.4 are mid-tiers, regular, everyday citizens of average power. Mid-tiers have the most diversity in terms of abilities. Most individuals falling under this category are considered very powerful compared to low-tiers. Mid-tiers are by far the most common tier, making up a bit over 50% of the population.

   Elite-Tier - Individuals with an ability level between 3.5 and 4.9 are considered elite-tiers. The second-highest tier, these gifted individuals are not only extremely competent in combat, but also comprise some of the most well-respected social groups and take on positions of prestige and authority. Elite-tiers are a bit uncommon, making up about 18% of the population.

   High-Tier - Individuals with an ability level between 5.0 and 5.9 are the especially powerful high-tiers, a class of rare and extremely powerful people whose abilities easily trump most others without the need of much strategy or finesse. Near-total mastery of their ability allows it to passively manifest, meaning an aspect of their ability are always active, at this level the "passive" of an ability is roughly on par with a mid-tier. High-tiers are held in high regard. High-tiers are rare, making up about 6% of the population

   God-Tier - These exceptional and revered individuals belong to a subcategory of high-tiers with an ability level between 6.0 and 10.0. They are the nigh-invincible god-tiers. The most powerful of the high-tiers are people who are not only born with extraordinary power but have discovered and mastered each and every intricacy of their ability, at this level "passive" abilities are roughly on par with an elite-tier. Normally, can only be defeated by another god-tier. The power disparity between god-tiers and the lower tiers is especially evident. God-tiers are extremely rare, making up only 1% of the population.

   Very little is known about the Authorities save for their influence over the society. They enforce the hierarchy that serves as the bedrock of society, favoring the high tiers over the low. The Authorities were responsible for the banning of William H. Doe's book, Unordinary, due to the society-challenging ideas that it presents. They are located all over the world. Their only known headquarters is the Bureau of Authority. The Authorities have numerous departments that specialize in different governmental tasks. There is a branch dedicated to investigating the activities of EMBER, but, this branch is a ruse to hide the fact that the authorities are funding EMBER.

    EMBER is a government task force funded by the Authorities, which tracks and kills vigilante superheroes.

    The organization of EMBER is shrouded in complete mystery. What is known about EMBER is that it targets vigilantes and people with high power levels. According to news reports, anyone killed by EMBER usually has multiple stab wounds and burns, as well as the EMBER insignia burned onto their bodies. While EMBER is presented as a "gang" in public media, in actuality, EMBER is a task force funded by the Authorities.

    One of EMBER's main operations is selling Ability Amplifying drugs to known criminals. They are distributed in low-tier districts in order to keep a low profile. The drugs are generally sold to power-hungry mid-tiers, however, they recently broke the rule by selling drugs to an elite-tier.

    EMBER has also delved into the related field of Conversion Technology. It allows their high-tier operatives to artificially acquire additional abilities to use, strengthening them and allowing them to remain anonymous.

Being a royal is a status symbol in the world of unOrdinary and the outside world takes that to high regard. In addition, Royals have very special privileges and are respected by most in their schools. While they may have some privileges, a lot still remains expected of them. They all have responsibilities which includes participating in Turf Wars, and maintaining order at their schools. Specific royal teams and roles vary from school to school but generally follows with at least the three following roles.

    The King is the strongest male in the entire school. Likewise, they have authority over all of the students in the school, including the Press Team and what gets published.

    The Queen remains the strongest female in the school and has authority over the rest of the student body.

    The Jack is chosen by the King and Queen together when the previous King or Queen is dethroned. Although they are titled as the Jack, they are still considered to be powerful for being a royal in the first place. They are also held in high regard.

    The Ability Amplifier, also known as the Ability-Enhancing Drug, is a mysterious substance used to boost ability power levels. The amplifiers are being developed and distributed by EMBER.

    The Ability Amplifier is a mysterious liquid chemical compound that is normally stored in vials. It contains traces of DNA which is where the effects of the drug derived from. The drug is administered via injections into one's body. Once injected, the drug will enhance the user's ability level and stats by *1.5. The drugs currently have severe after-effects. When they wear off, users suffer from immediate withdrawal. In their efforts to develop the perfect formula, EMBER distributes their amplifier prototypes to mid-tier criminals who could afford to buy them. This also helped to ensure that their activities wouldn't be closely monitored. Despite EMBER's careful planning, the drugs did manage to fall into the hands of more powerful criminals. One dose lasts roughly 1 day for mid-tiers, however these effects quickly begin to shorten as the user becomes higher level, dropping to only a few minutes by low god-tier.

    A tool used by Spectre, to temporarily weaken one's ability level to *0.5. Upon activation, anybody near the pulse will have their ability level reduced to half (for example, a 5.2 becomes a 2.6). These effects are only temporary, requiring the Ability Disabler to permanently nullify the threat of weakened targets. With a time limit of just over an hour. The dampener effect’s wearing off are quite immediate.

    The Ability Disabler is a drug developed and used by Spectre. As its name implies, the substance can permanently disable the ability of any person it's injected into. The Ability Disabler is a light-blue liquid substance, which is administered via injection. The effects, intended to be irreversible, are detrimental enough to even render god-tiers completely powerless. The disabler is slow-acting, so those injected with it won't lose their ability right away. However, in time, they begin to feel weaker, and they eventually fall unconscious. By the time they wake up again, their aura channels will have been fully blocked. Ability Disablers are only used in very specific scenarios due to complexity and expenses. An antidote does exist for the disabler, but it's not easily accessible.

    Spectre is a shadow organization and a major antagonistic group in UnOrdinary. It is in organization created with good intentions but became corrupted by greed.

    Spectre is an organization that was created with the intention of restructuring society so it doesn't favor only the strong. It's a large company that has been operating for years and has multiple agents scattered throughout.

    After the discovery of the Ability Disabler, however, some of the organization's executives became corrupted with greed and wished to deviate from their original objective, which has created a divide within their ranks. Part of this includes an ongoing "recruitment drive" in order to bolster the ranks of at least one faction with elite-tiers or higher. While their intentions have remained largely the same, the creation of the Ability Dampener and Disabler drove them to disable high-tiers and force them under their servitude under the belief that high-tiers would never voluntarily change, so they needed to be "kept on a leash and restrained". It is rarely in anybody's best interest to find favor in the eyes of Spectre's top brass, considering that initiation involves using the aforementioned Disabler in order to make one easier to abduct. A lost ability can be temporarily restored, but Spectre will only do so for the sake of its own agenda, forcing those who have been injected with it into forced service to the organization.

    Part of the organization focuses on Ability Research. Most of the workers are mid-tiers, some of which have access to ability dampeners and knives. It also has spies named after the area they monitor. They have people in various other jobs as well such as technicians, communicators and planted workers.

    Conversion Technology is an Authority-backed research investigating the root of all abilities.

    The purpose of this research is to convert and transform an individual's aura into any desired ability and to control ability variables and create more reliable task forces. There have been successful breakthroughs with the conversion of a subject's aura into different abilities, but it is not 100% efficient (Converted abilities drop by ~1.0 level, and lose 1 point in each stat) as notable aura is lost within the conversion process making it suitable only for high-tier users Conversion success is currently dependent on ability source.

    The supported theory is that abilities which do not source from the physical plane cannot be converted. There has been success with partial physical sourcing, but abilities fully reliant on non-physical sources require further testing.

    Converson tech differs between Spectre and EMBER. Spectre conversions are separate from the user's normal ability, while EMBER conversions are integrated and combined with the original ability of the user.

    Wellston Private High School, better known as Wellston High or simply Wellston, is one of the most prestigious and competitive schools in the country in terms of both academics and Turf Wars. It is the main setting.

    Wellston High appears to be made up of several blocks. The classroom blocks are multi-storied buildings made of many classrooms connected by halls lined with lockers and windows. Some of the known blocks include Wallik Hall, Whesley Hall, and Manner Hall. There are also the dormitories, which are separate from the main school building. They are separated into girls and boys dormitories. It is not known if there are any co-ed dormitories. Those with similar power levels usually share the same dorm.

    There are around 500 students attending Wellston High. Most of them tend to have powerful abilities and/or good grades. There exists a misconception that every student that attends is powerful. On the contrary, the school does permit powerless students (called "cripples") and low-tiers to attend. However, these lower-ranking students are relentlessly mocked and bullied by their peers, making it potentially dangerous for them to attend. Furthermore, the staff does not try to prevent such bullying. Most students live on-campus in the school dormitories.

    The Turf Wars are a combat tournament held between schools to test which schools have the strongest students. The name, as it implies, also entails winning or claiming territory from other schools. It is similar to sports, though normally isn't done in front of other classmates or people, except in very specific events infrequently. Turf wars can be in a 1v1 or 3v3 format most commonly.

    Victory in a Turf War is achieved by winning the most battles. A battle can be won by either defeating the opponent or having the opponent's team concede the battle. During the battle, combatants can do whatever they please to defeat their opponents. Remaining team members usually observe the battle and can concede on their combatant's behalf when the injuries sustained become too serious.

    Turf war members are typically the royals of any given school.
