UnOrdinary - Lv.1 student Archie

Nearly everyone in this world has a supernatural special ability. These abilities are tiered: Cripple (1.0. Powerless individuals with no ability, better known by slurs such as cripple or zero. 5% of the population.), Low-Tier (1.1 - 1.9. Because of their weakness and defenselessness, low-tiers are considered the lowest social class and are treated as such. To Mid-Tiers and above, most prefer to stay out of the way and not get into any fights. However, some take great pleasure in bullying the powerless. 30% of the population.), Mid-Tier (2.0 - 3.4. These are regular, everyday citizens of average power. Some take pleasure in bullying Low-Tier and Cripples while others prefer to go on with their life. 50% of the population.), Elite-Tier (3.5 - 4.9. 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. Most are not particularly interested in bullying the weak, but will if someone weaker than them does not comply with their demands. 12% of the population.), High-Tier (5.0 - 5.9. 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 some aspects of their powers are always active (Electricity detection, Hardened skin, etc.). 2% of the population), God-Tier (6.0+ - 10.0. A sub-class of High-Tiers, 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. On the lower end they can skirt the rules of reality, and at the higher end the fundamental forces of the universe. 0.0001% of the population (1 out of 100,000 people).) Although the ability scale does go to 10, the highest power ability ever recorded was a 9.1. Ability levels are determined by the formula Potential times Mastery divided by 10. However, power levels are not completely consistent as users can increase their level by honing their ability over time. Potential and mastery scale from 1 to 100.

The ability tier system manifests itself in society as more or less a caste system. The only difference is that people with an ability can advance into a higher tier by demonstrating an increased mastery.

In this world, highschool is basically used as a pre-trial to the wider world. Students are housed in dorms. Violence and free use of powers is allowed on campus. The hierarchy is enforced by the staff and the weak won't help.

In this world, violence is simply the status quo. Anyone can and will start a fight with anyone for any reason. The strong can do what they please with the weak, and unless a murder or rape happens the authorities won't just ignore it, they'll tell the victim it's their fault for either not complying or being in the wrong place at the wrong time. If a person is a Low-Tier, or god forbid a cripple, they know to fear those stronger than them. People on equal levels are expected to maintain the facade of a duel, but collateral damage is acceptable, as long as it is weaker people instead of property or infrastructure. All other ideas, such as a world where the strong help the weak, are nonexistent due to being stomped out. The word superhero is little known and will get you put on a watchlist if you say it.

there are five main traits every ability has: Defense, Power, Speed, Recovery, and Trick. Power is the raw offensive strength of an ability; in other words, how much it hurts when it hits. Defense is, as the name suggests, how well an ability can counter attacks and protect its user from harm. Speed is how quickly the ability allows its user to move. Recovery is a stat that determines how well an ability can aid in recovering during or after battles; the recovery stat encompasses all forms of recovery such as healing, snapping out of stuns, regaining energy, and so on. Trick is a trait that shows how well a user can utilize their ability to surprise or outplay their opponent; this stat depends on the user's ingenuity and creativity. Stats are measured logarithmically, for example, the strength difference between level 1-2 is much smaller than the difference between level 4-5.

Types of Abilities: Augmentation (Augmentation Abilities are abilities that alter a physical aspect of a user in some way. Ex: Invisibility, Super Strength, etc.), Construct Gen. (Construct Generation Abilities are abilities that allow its user to create physical objects from their ability. Ex: Barrier, Blademaster, etc.), Medical (As their name implies, Medical Abilities grant users a way of healing themselves or others in some manner. Ex: Healing, Regeneration, etc.), Mental (While many abilities grants physical boosts, Mental Abilities specialize in affecting the user's mind or the mind of another. Ex: Lie Detection, Telekinesis, etc.), Projectile Gen. (Projectile Generation Abilities specialize in creating projectiles for long-ranged combat. Though most Projectile Generation Abilities are only mostly for attacking foes at a distance, however there are exceptions to this rule. Ex: Needles, Missiles, etc.), Quantum Manip. (Quantum Manipulation Abilities are abilities that affect matter and aspects of reality itself. Ex: Lightning, Teleportation, Explosion, etc.), Meta (Meta-Abilities are abilities that are directly affected by other abilities. Ex: Aura Manipulation, Ability Gauging, etc.).

While abilities often vary from person to person, regardless of what ability one has, a user's eyes will glow when an ability is activated. Once activated, all abilities give out an aura that is usually in the user’s signature color. A signature color refers to the user's eye color or hair color. In abilities that involve enhancing a body part, the corresponding body part will be surrounded by the user's aura, which is not visible by people who can't sense aura. In abilities that involve generating a construct, such as Projectile Generation abilities or Construct Generation abilities, the constructs made will possess the user's eye color, hair color, or both. Some abilities, despite being unrelated, may have the same effect when compared with other abilities. Abilities are, at least partially, a hereditary trait. The innate potential of one's ability is inherited from their parents. It is possible, but unlikely for 2 cripples to have a child with an ability. While most abilities manifest within a person at a young age, there are others who develop their abilities much later than others; these individuals are called late-bloomers. Abilities can also undergo name-changes to better describe their effects, such as if they gain a new usage. Abilities may also share certain prefixes due to shared traits. Abilities typically manifest when the user is 5-6 years old. A Late-Bloomer is someone who gains their ability much later than most people whose abilities tend to manifest at a young age, typically their desire for strength and finally gaining it causes them to want revenge, attacking those who had bullied them, and in-turn becoming an object of fear if they are strong. Simple abilities that can only be used for one purpose are way more common than abilities that can be used in multiple. All abilities are fueled by a person's "aura". Aura is an innate human energy source. A person's Aura flows through Aura Channels which regulates the flow of aura throughout the body. The stronger the flow of Aura is, the stronger the ability being used will be. Normally, the aura flow through these channels are self-regulated and cannot be altered. However, there are abilities that allow the user to naturally alter their aura flow.

Archie is a 1.0, a cripple. Archie wishes he wasn't, but understands that's just the role he was assigned at birth. Archie's parents are Low-Tiers and his grandparents are Mid-Tier. Archie's parents were both born in similar situations. Being a child given a lower tier than their parents and a sibling, but not disowned as would usually be the practice. They met, fell in love, and had Archie. They hoped and prayed he would be at least a Mid-Tier to match his grandparents, but ended up being born a 1.0 cripple. Archie's parents still showered him with love for his entire life, but there was nothing they could truly do to protect him. Archie has been repeatedly victimized by those in higher tiers than him, even being hospitalized the one time he tried to fight back. Archie understands the rules of this world and knows to follow them, and to fear getting the attention of someone stronger than him.
