Omnidex System Guidelines and Terms

(Will update/alter later, but this is the basic gist of the information)


Tabrith System And Its Functions

Tabrith is the Omnipedia, an infinitely large Grimoire that harbors the entire realm of Final Fantasy within it. As of recently, that world is being altered and shaped to the will of Tabrith and Khrona, considering he is able to completely control all data as he sees fit. As such, that realm is not only being merged with the Veritas, but also those who are selected to harness the power of this world.

Tabrith also serves as a multipurpose communication device that allows others to speak to others with an Omnipedia Sliver directly through exchanged links. This also allows for instantaneous travel to others who have a Tabrith (if such is agreed upon) and if a Resonance Bond is formed, the sharing of special abilities. Tabrith can also be used as a dousing machine. Tabrith as a whole has access to all information, all links, all connections, all knowledge and all data as a standard, which is how he is allowed to connect to others and feed them the necessary information about the Insanity, Monsters and anything else scanned or analyzed by it, making it quite the useful tool for anything one wishes to know on the fly.

Tabrith will 'save the data' of whomever he is with, functioning as a storage space for all such information, and is able to open up menus inside of people's minds in order to help them make quick mental decisions like opening up the Zero World Shop, changing Classes or listing Class Abilities. He is also able to give suggestions on the best course of action, if either necessary or asked to do so. He can analyze and input monster data completely and fully once the monster has been scanned, allowing the user to know all there is to know about the specific creature (unless stated otherwise.) This also works for people and objects other than Insanity or monsters.

Shinsanity
Shinsanity is what one could call 'True Sanity' (as 'Shin' means 'Truth'), meaning that it stabilizes and controls the uncontrollable and unstable energy that is the Insanity and brings utter clarity, understanding and control without any 'Insanity' about it, for there is nothing that is out of control or unstable. There is no room for Insanity when within Shinsanity, and thus it serves as energy of pure perfection and clarity as opposed to the Insanity's energy of pure instability and unpredictableness. This energy is produced by the Shinseigami, but is filtered through the Tabrith system so that all those connected are able to unify the rampaging Insanity and change it into Shinsanity as well. However, though this energy is made to fight the Insanity, being its complete opposite also means that it is susceptible to being changed into Insanity as well if the influence is too overpowering, so this in no way means that there is an absolute victory nor that one should stop being careful. This pure, perfect energy can easily be tainted and polluted, thus making it imperfect when allowed to take on too much Insanity than it can purify.

Though Shinsanity is considered Insanity's 'opposite', it is still very much a part of Insanity and actually is Insanity itself; Yo could call it 'Controlled Insanity' or "Stable Insanity,' or even 'Peaceful Insanity.' This is why, if ever its equilibrium should be disturbed by the imbalance or instability with the forces of Sanity and Insanity that stabilize each other, its balance is thrown out of whack and the equilibrium of 'Harmony' or 'Order' that is within Sanity and the 'Discord' and 'Chaos' within the Insanity is completely destabilized, which will turn the Shinsanity back into Insanity. There can be neither too much Harmony (For there is unstable Insanity in 'Harmony' and 'Order' if there is too much, and such uniformity and conformity will become oppressive forces; inflexible and unchanging) nor can there be too much Discord (For then nothing is too much anarchy running rampant without self control, thus there is no 'self' to control, simply an ambiguous 'Chaos' with no definite appearance, shape nor form to hold it together.) This is the secret of why Shinsanity is the key to subduing the Insanity rather than Sanity (Harmony and Order) or more Insanity (Discord and Chaos). This Shinsanity, in short, is perfect energy of perfect balance.


Chomao
Chomao are Omnipedia Slivers of Tabrith that are considered like children to him and guides to others; Technology Sprites sent to hover around active participants as their universal guides and data keepers during their endeavors (think of them as a mixture of Chao, Moogles, Net Navis, Medabots and Data Elves for those who played the Megaman Zero games.) If a Chomao dies, one loses their link to the Tabrith, and they no longer have their powers. If people do not use their Chomao, their Tabrith will not upgrade, and thus, neither will their abilities. They can only access/establish a link to Tabrith through the Chomao. The entire Tabrith itself is considered Khrona's Chomao and Grimoire. Chomao are capable of sensing other Chomao nearby as well as Insanity and Grimoires. They are also able to download items, weapons, etc. and use them in storage (as Tabrith itself is not only infinite data and information, but an infinite storage system as a Grimoire of unlimited space, being a Grim after all). The largest amount of storage space one is permitted to have is a single Yottabyte. Chomao are Technology Sprites that grow, adapt, learn and evolve, because in additions to being pure data, they are also living, sentient beings. They are able to change into whatever form the user desires (such as a cell phone, a computer, a book, etc.) but once the desired form for the Chomao to take has been put in place, it will only be able to assume that SINGLE form beyond its normal Chomao form, so choose wisely. Chomao are completely customizable, which become an element akin to your own personal affinity. They are able to fight for you or alongside you, and grow and learn techniques just the same way you do. They harbor your Subclass when you are not using it, so that you can also switch between your main and sub classes at will whilst also training the techniques through use of the Chomao.

Zero World Shop
You may order potions or other items immediately from the Zero World, as long as you give up something that is of equivalent value to the item you are attempting to purchase. At that moment, the item given up for tribute will be erased and in its place, something of equivalent value will be spit out from the Zero World. Though the most obvious method of currency is Gold (as it can be replaced), things such as Weapons, Sentimental Items, or other items of importance and be used as well, and value will be determined based on the item and what it was worth (be it in gold value or sentimental value, or things of that nature. All value is useful in making exchanges in the Zero World, so anything and everything can be used as currency for it.)


Chrysms
Chrysms are raw energy turned into pure crystal, harboring the energy of what energetic form has been crystallized. Even purified souls are capable of becoming Chrysms. Chrysms come in many different shapes and forms and harbor tons of different energies based on what kind of Chrysm it is (think of Chrysms like Materia or Magicite or things of that nature in the FF universe). They are crystallized energy of the purest form, and thus anything and any energy can be crystallized to become a Chrysm. However, as mere fragments, most Chrysms only conduct and radiate the energy they were made from and use it as a power source.

Crystal Tears are special Chrysms that are caable of bringing and taking life. They function as the 'phoenix downs' of the world. They are also capable of causing Crystal Flowers to bloom, which harbor very special secrets if one is able to find them. They're like treasure chests, these Crystal Flowers, so try to keep a Crystal Tear handy if you can.


Event Details, Instructions and Guidelines

I know it has taken me quite a while to get this out, but it needed to be the exact right time to reveal this (trust me, I've been holding back this information since December, waiting to unveil it.) Here, I will explain the logistics of the event in great detail, so please read very carefully and ask questions if you something does not make sense.


Insanity points will pop up randomly to be purified. This can affect something as small as monster behavior to things as large as weather, reality alterations, space and time or even death. You never know because the Insanity is an unpredictable force that cannot be understood. Hence why you are equipped with Shinsanity in order to quell this unpredictable, non-understanding force and stabilize it so that it can be understood and brought to clarity and perfection. That is the ultimate goal.


Monsters and Hunts
Monsters afflicted with Insanity will show up in your piece of the Omnipedia, and by that time it will be up to you to decide to kill it and take its soul or resonate with it and try to purify its soul. Both have their risks, as one who eats too many souls for power with no control will become Falshin, and those who try to resonate with a monster too far lost to the Insanity (and seems to refuse to come back) will become consumed by whatever Insanity it was afflicted by in the first place. Absorbed monsters can be called upon for help,

Absorbed monsters can be called back by recalling what souls you have absorbed through your Soul Count (so make sure you keep track somewhere, make a list or something). This is done by Tabrith reconstructing the soul from data, meaning that this ability is only for those who have a Chomao (a Tabrtih sliver). The monster still functions the exact same way, even as a virtual being since its soul that was extracted is used as the raw construction data material. Therefore, even as data the monster is a REAL living being. However, because of their entire makeup being that of their soul, when they are destroyed, they are gone for good, their data spreading in the wind and reconstructing itself somewhere else as something else. They may be called in any way possible and may assume numerous different energetic forms as conduits (such as pure chakra, pure fire, perhaps made of energies specific to certain characters?)

Side note; only monsters afflicted by the Insanity can be purified and absorbed by the Tabrith. (Think about it as a mix of Digimon and Pokemon Colosseum at once.)

Resonated monsters do not have their souls absorbed into the Omnipedia container (Chomao), but instead become naturally friendly and will remember the one they resonated with. They may come to help them in battle, be called upon for support in a sticky situation, or anything a loyal friend or noble ally would do to help someone that was good to them. They also allow the shared use of their natural abilities, techniques and power as well as special ways to communicate with them through the soul. Some may even have the potential to become 'Soulmates' and function as 'Instruments' for certain people, so do not overlook that possibility!

With monsters whose souls have been extracted can be trained with at any given time, like they are companions for one to interact with. Be careful not to kill it, however.



Battle Formations
There shall be different types of classes independent of each Job. They are as follows:

The Assault/Assailant - Physical Attacker
The Circuitbreaker - Special Attacker
The Savior - Defenders (Tanks), Counterattackers
The Wire - Supporters (Buffers/Status Boosters)
The Life Support - Healers, Protectors
The Hacker - Supporters (Debuffers/Status Ailments)

Most job classes have these as their standard battle formations, and depending on what type you choose to be depicts which techniques you are eligible to learn. Some classes may have more or unique battle formations and others may have less depending on how the class itself is meant to be used. These are simply here to help people understand their role and the class itself.

These Battle Formations help people to work together in groups and as teams, as that may be required to face some Insanities; working together. Some may decide to be the attackers whilst others may be defenders or supporters, or even healers. The Insanities are EXTREMLELY dangerous and unpredictable, so you never quite know just what is going to happen. If everyone matches their roles, they can get things done more efficiently than if they were done alone.

Also, there may be times where teamwork is absolutely essential to take down a certain Insanity or get past a certain area. This makes great use of the Battle Formations.

How many attacks you are capable of maintaining at once is dictated by your level of newness. Unless stated otherwise, everyone is capable of using only one technique at a time from their Job Class with a maximum of 3 times per post. This can be either the same technique or three different techniques, and is considered to be your 'action time' you could say, and as long as you have time to react, you may do so 3 separate times one at a time within a post.

Ex. Strange Man Number 1 wishes to fight Khrona. He jumps high into the air and comes down with a forceful punch.

Khrona sees the man leap into the air and prepares to evade by using (insert speed boost technique here) so that he may be quick enough to dodge the man as he comes down. (First Action Used). After he evades the punch, Khrona uses (insert attacking technique here) to strike the opponent from behind. (Second Action Used.)

Now granted, you do not HAVE to use all three action points within one post if you do not want to, as you can clearly see, you can use either one or two or all three if you so choose. This is limited ONLY to the use of Final Fantasy powers and does not dictate how you use your other RP techniques, so you are not limited to three actions per post in total, just three actions per post when using the Final Fantasy powers. Make sense?

Proficiency increases with time, skill, ran, rating and other factors such as training and practice, so that lateon in life, you can be a badass doing all sorts of cool things much more frequently in a single post.


Rating System and Spoils
Tabrith has an automated rating system that will decide how good or bad someone has done based on many variables, such as efficiency in combat, strategy, proficiency in use of skills, natural level and things of that nature. The rating is averaged based on how well one does in the actual RP. Getting a better rating will help you master your class techniques faster, so always remember to do your best if you want to master all of them!

The better one does, the better their spoils may be from certain creatures, which is also dictated by the rating system. Another very important reason why you want to do your best, so you can achieve the rarer items and more gold.

Download Items are special items that are taken from monsters based on rating and ranking. The higher rank and rate, the better the download item. Normal Drop items remain the same consistently on specific monsters, where Download Items are special and specific to only certain monsters.

Tabrith ranks will upgrade when one receives a high rating. This can effect how much more data is able to access from the Data Realm (Infinite Sea). One star is lowest, 5 Star is highest. The more stars one receives, the more perks and rewards become available to them over time. Tabrith becomes capable of sensing rarer items, unusual occurrences, stronger monsters, secrets and many other special things the more data it allows its users to see.
