Terminology (RIVES and Chrono Link)

See The Story Element of .hack//Chrono LinkThe terminology of RIVES and Chrono Link will bring hold key to the story progress and how does it connected to each other in the process, also allow to create a new idea how to integrate this new element into the Chrono Link story.I do not own story and characters from .hack series, all credits are goes to CyberConnect2 and Bandai Namco. All this brand new story was created by my own idea.
== RIVES ==
Editor note: To be revise soon!
=== The World R:3 ===
The immersive online game developed by CyberConnect Corporation which is the successor to the second version of The World which taken a major step evolution from the previous version, while brings back the excitement there were in R:1 as also they enjoyed a major step for modern version in few advancement technologies.
As the game reached over 10 Million worldwide which was immersively and critically successful due to impressive environment, gameplay mechanics, system online, challenges, quest, and more which makes even younger to adult audience interest to playing the game which was supported with Unreal Engine 4. Using M5D which was fully based on the connection with laptop, console, computer, and Smartphone. With Full-HD and 4K resolution, 60FPS, and Higher-spec graphical.
Not just game mechanics and aspect had changed, but the system Guild, PK, Tournament, Area, and Root town has changed a bit, which brought a new features which bringing step evolution from previous revision, although still overreaching to address an issue on bug to fix due to effect major bug from The World R:2 and decide administrator to take step for address major fix toward game online. Additionally with ENTIES appear causing the major distortion to the network and also major incident to the real world.
It is the main setting to .hack//RIVES and .hack//LINK -Chrono Link- which is later been stumble into shutting down due to crisis network happen in R:3 which let to the incident happen in the real world with the arrival of Akashic Records. At the end of Episode 3 of Chrono Link, the version of The World has been rebranded into The World R:X.
=== Sub-Weapon System ===
It is a brand-new system on The World R:3 which allows players to select a special weapon like ranged, spear, sword, gun, and more which helped players freely double-wield or changing the weapon which changing status and skill at the same time. Players can choose the sub equipment they liked to use which limited to sub-weapons, and players need to reached level 30 to unlock the sub-weapon system, and only those who had only one weapon job can obtain the system.
However, this system cannot do use freely and has a restriction, as the sub weapon served when they in an emergency like guarding themselves or during out of control which allows the player to use it in certain limits. This system, however, cannot be obtained by Adept Rouge they're able to change their weapon at their command through job extension.
=== ENTIES ===
The Legendary of PKK and Hackers which was known by many players from Newbies to veterans of The World R:3 and most notable to be a dangerous PC that they ever faced.
Tokio and his friend had been encountering with him many times and had been fighting against her so many times as well. However, no one could ever possibly knows about ENTIES’s true identity. He was presumed by Tokio and his friend to be the mastermind behind the Fall of the Twilight Knights and the corruption operational of Akashic Records, which is now still never been found until now.
in Chrono Link, according to the new information Alibaba and Saika, Enties is a possibility to be a secret member of Schicksal and was never been listed as a member due to her rarely being shown up. As the story progress, ENTIES is still become a main key role to LINK Story as they still figuring out his true identity and his true intent, while they hunt for Chrono Core.
Some according to the source, that ENTIES may have an actual connection with Jyotaro Amagi.
=== Ultimate PKK and Hackers ===
The rarest title was only used by ENTIES due to his skill with hacking the system and killing the players which extremely major to its public players and whose title has been rumored by many players and poses a threat.
Besides that, that title that he earned became a major fear and threat toward all players of The World R:3 as due to the new case about Eternal Lost one become a most major for all players that need to be careful, with eventually after ENTIES had killed a few staff admin from CC Corp.
Combining two skills that he has become ultimately professional and undefeatable foe which Tokio and his friend needs to defeat him to prevent other victims become an Eternal Lost One, however, ENTIES sees those title like a curse for him.
=== PK System (R:3) ===
The PK System has been improved and upgraded ever since the end of The World R:3, including rules been updated which they now allow to live freely as CC Corp creating a new dark web server town, Purgatory Deep Underground City which where PK PC can live to do whatever they want including their access to the regular server town, but, they well behaved and smarter to make plan where they can PK the newbies PC at the right time in a free place.
They well behaved only due to restriction PKs rule in The World R:3, as those who make move freely that make cause steer to the public, the CyberSecurity AI will capture those PKers and banned their account which police can identify their location in the real world and arrest the players who've been identified as PKers which is the reason why PKers decides live in the shadow, but still, gladfully they can have some fun to killing the newbie with right times.
But only Tournament which is now still becoming a part of PKers excitement which shown the arena has boundaries for players and also for PKers, but the rules have been little updated which able to control the situation to prevent any crowded situation happens within arena and fight which they're desires.
=== Bounty Quest ===
With PK System been upgraded comes with a new feature system, which CC Corp, higher-ups, even rich environment can make a bounty quest to target someone who had to oppose them, which comes to a greater rewards and price they can earn as it depends how much strength the target has and how much impacting rewards has.
The Bounty Quest has become more popular in PKs which allows doing whatever they want after they get a reward and most importantly as how high society needs to make a dirty deal to keep their image from the disappointing case for their personal. With CC Corp observing their movement they can at least not roam free and make problems in a regular town server, but it seems there's a major demand from few PKers to bring back the rules which once were in The World R:2.
=== Eternal Lost One ===
There's a major case regarding about the players, and this is the first time the incident happens in The World R:3 with arrival of ENTIES which his attack and skill has broken their brains and soul which presumed them to be an Eternal Lost One which another word that players candied in the world after been received major brainwave shock causing major deadly damaged and destroyed.
Over 100 players have come into their death in the world and several witnesses that ENTIES was responsible for the hundreds of players who had died in the real world bringing the last torment that became a threat to their lives who getting their ways. Not just regular players, but even other PKers who have no stand a chance against her due to their defeat will also impact their lives in the real world which resulting in PKs has no business or fighting against her.
This is entirely a new case that never brought on before even in the previous revision, the Eternal Lost one was a new case which something that CC Corp cannot handle and decide to cover up the case. Tokio and his friend tried to fight against ENTIES to prevent her to kill another player and work together to discover her intention.
=== The Sword of Balance ===
(To be revised soon)
The Mythical Sword which was found at The Forest of Hidden which gained the balance of the five magical elements and weapon status which able to use the weapon which can upgrade weapon status at the same time with element status, which is now becoming the main weapon to Tokio.
It can also skilled to delivered elemental skills toward weapon and balancing the range, attacks, and accuracy making something that attacks has to be made fair which not too low and not too high. It also delivers the damage that balances between low and high which is not something that too much overpowers but it very worth use it in certain tactical and strategic.
There's still mystery surrounding about that sword, but 
=== Ultimate PC ===
Extraordinary types of PCs that were extremely rare to obtain by any PC as it only Three Legion Leader Guild could have such type of PC. This type of PC has any resistance toward elements and each three of them were given a perspective special ability also receives such an amount Speed, Accuracy, Attack, Magic, Agility, and more making them as the most protector of The World.
No one knows how they obtained that powers, there's speculation if their PC was just a hacked PC, but it seems this has no confirmation, but it reaches to surpassed Aura's expectation and also even surpassed Haseo and Kite's at moment. 
Even so with Ultimate PC could still not able to surpassed what Halard had created for Ultimate AI, because it does have a limit for this usage. If the users had too much used the power of Ultimate PC could cause the major distortion toward network and putting risk to their brain causing impact toward their psych of the real world, also could lead to destroying their brain due to how it receives a major wave shock that strains his brain, it could lead a possibility to their death.
=== CyberSecurity AI ===
A new anti-virus security system which was developed by CyberConnect Corporation which is designed to combat the virus which threatening the network system to avoid another network crisis happen like previous years. It has a goal to create a perfect anti-virus and bring security toward all the systems of The World also capturing the PKs and regular players who broke the rules of the online that could bring cause toward all players.
Their creation was outstanding to create a perfection weapon that could surpass Aura, but it does have natural flaws toward them, as admin has worked for addressing the issues regarding Anti-Virus security which considered incomplete. Although the staff of CC Corp has optimistic it could bring protection toward all players around the world and also exterminated every last one of them who bring the distortion network.
However, the biggest problem is that CS AI cannot take down the ENTIES who was causing the major distortion and brings the virus to the network which is something suspicious that related to CC Corps doing. Players have complained over the company for not dealing with the one PC, however, with no answer and ignoring the complaints became major suspicious toward players regarding their purpose for creating CS AI. This has something to do that connected to the CC Corp's conspiracies.
=== One Sin (R:3) ===
The legendary bosses who were existed in The World since the R:1 and through the version and recreation version by CC Corp, in the R:3 has featured all-new One-Sin which is the most powerful bosses that became a challenge toward all players who progressing the legendary quest from popular NPC, but, one of those were missing and admin has no clue the location of one of the Sin bosses.
They appear in every legendary quest which connected with defeats, obtain, meet, and more, but certain Occasional that One Sin can appear in Lost Ground or Ruin Temple areas as random bosses which is something that players did not expect it, but it does have the greatest reward as player can obtain a rare items, equipment, and more.
=== Leak Rumor Broker ===
The Black Mark PCs who had leaked and making rumors about any various information which were treated as a secret, but sharing information could need a cost and money to pay which is something that other leakers can have from the real world. They obtain information from source insider and through connection who worked with other various companies, including CC Corp, but they can also act as an extreme journalist to make an action.
They also hid in the dark web server which where PKs are hide, and this also where the leakers lived there inactive which is also part of the organization who had goals to share the secret and unawareness information to all players which something they need to know, but they're doing it in the shadow and very secret which is not something they have to expose carelessly, they need to be extra careful where the timing and right place to share, but it does have lot cost to pay for that information or through deal.
=== Legion Unity ===
The guild faction which was separated into a three faction Raven, RedDead, and Blue Moon. it was led by three leader Yun-EL, Davis, and Sophomore which they were bounded as the Ultimate PC has become popular among all players from R:3, including their records about their past achievements leading them to become a Legion Unity.
Their goals as the protector of The World who protecting all players from virus threats and prevent the fourth coming network crisis as they recruited a guild member for the task of protecting The World with through quest that they had received.
They were considered as the strongest ones, due the Ultimate PC had been applied to the three leader's PC which given full permission to control something that has to do with each of their perspective special ability that they were given. Not just that, each of the three Legion Unity receives the ability of Data Drain which were a creation from several data from R.A. Data that materialize copy the power of Data Drain and given to their own.
Although, The leaders of Legion Unity become a major targets to ENTIES due to three of them oppose a threat that unknown had to do with CC Corp, but it does have mysterious intent which lead-up to the assassination of the Legion Unity, no one knows what kind purpose that they need to be killed, but it does have to do with conspiracies that CC Corp did.
After the death of the Legion Unity Leaders causing The World R:3 had lost its protector, which ultimately leads up to the crisis that happens in the online game, and major distortion to the real world.
=== Core of Administration ===
The core that was kept hidden which were creation of Halards work during his work for Epitaph of Twilight beta game and the source for the distortion, but also the core of The World Debug System which given to created a new restriction or developing something that affecting The World which is the key for ENTIES to take it.
It's key to fulfill CC Corp's goal which is something that mysteriously unknown, but the core will bringing changes toward a geometry of the networks and the online with also bringing a course change toward time data. To do that, ENTIES needs to kill every remaining member of the Administrator of the online game to obtain the core which possesses a natural spec of The World.
This later revealed to be used as data to recreating and redeveloped the Akashic Records which finishing the project that Jyotaro had started, and it seems that Geist has participated in the project to fulfill his plan to come fruition and thus this lead where Chrono Link event begins.
== Chrono Link ==
=== Twilight Knights ===
Twilight Knights are the Armies who were created by Aura based on Log memories data from past PC who’ve been written to their history in the past time.
Based from their memories of log data and their old archive character data with recreation into a new version of themselves with new jobs and version fit to the current revision just as a creation from Aura, but the only PC who was really called by Aura is, Kite, Haseo, Tsukasa, Black Rose, and Ovan.
Those armies have purposed to stop Schicksal and the CC Corp AI Security Program from taking Aura away from The World. But due to how powerful Schicksal is, including their unique PC become something that undefeatable, and due to someone putting Mysterious supreme virus bug from Akashic Records and infect them to become a stone.
The Kite was the only one who has been escaped, thanks to the new version of the bracelet and power of Azure Flame Kite, however, as far as the risk he can go, he knew that he cannot escape from Schicksal's threat and so he can only hide.
=== The Fall of Twilight Knights ===
The event was describing their failure to stop taking Aura away and seal her into Akashic Records as she now being trapped with their battle against Shicksal and CC Corp AI Security System, had resulting something that very twisted as someone behind the scene has already put their motion to infecting all Twilight Knights log PC data with moonstone virus
Those fallen hackers and PCs are being trapped by Moon Stone virus due to the someone who has ultimate hacking skills to release the virus and stopping PC from moving, with them being petrified into moonstone return into Real-World with their memories being altered due to existence of Akashic Records, while their original memories being trapped in MoonStone virus.

It happened in a sudden time with an unexpected calls as the Crisis started as the monster, including One Sin had breached into the root town causing steer attack against players which their attacks causing the player fell into a coma, including the X-Chain brainwashing virus as also infecting the player’s mind which unable control their PC at their own will which supposed that they attack each other.
All players, including Tokio and Akira, were evacuated into an log out servers at times, and this was happening during the release of Expansion update of Akashic Records which bringing a sudden major crisis network in The World, with those who were not survived became a lost one or disappear from the face of the earth because of this. Tokio and Akira along with 80 players survived from the crisis but causing the server to be locked and unable to Log-out.
=== The shutdown of The World R:3 ===
Following the crisis of The World R:3 happens which set two days after, CyberConnect Corporation apologized regarding the massive incident that happens toward all players and made the decision to shut down the R:3 until further notice from the administrator in an order made further research regarding about bugs.
However, this causing a major backlash, complaints, and death threats toward the staff who were responsible for letting the crisis happen, with another notes that ever since the Major higher-ups were killed during the World R:3 operating. This also comes with major loss over the shut down of The World R:3.
However, the shut down of The World has causing the phenomenon incident happens, with few thousands of people fall into a coma, disappeared from the face of the earths, and also causing a new syndrome for players who were just Log-out from the online game, receives a major memory changes which were known as Alteration Memory Syndrome.
=== Alteration Memories Syndrome ===
That syndrome was caused by those who change the time log memories data from Akashic Record causing the population who had played The WORLD turns into Alteration Memories Syndrome. Their PC connected into Log Memories data, if someone interfering the Timeline log data will bringing major alteration relapse to the players which means they will forget something they originally remember.
It will impact those who know him, as they remember they’ve never met the person before due to the syndrome effect, and a lot worse way is how events which changing their life never happen to cause dramatically memories image change into that event that never even originally take a place before.
What worst is when Someone from future changing their character fate by making them into a coma or just to kill them will cause major brainwaves backlash and resulting brains unable to process, later killed the Players in the current time. No matter how the restoration comes, they unable to bring back those who had died due to that Syndrome in the worst level.
=== Black Copy Disc ===
The unused archive Disc which long ago created by Halard Hoerwick over 12 years ago which was used to digitalize himself into the online game The World. It was a redesign, reworked, and re-improves by Jyotaro Amagi which improving capabilities to enter and also used fit on The Real-Digitalization user.
The black copy disc can enter the actual body into the network but in exchange for their physical body turning to PC with Data manipulation which led you freely travel into the data, and can only bring 1-2 people to transported into the online game, and it needs one person to activate the disc.
The existence of the Black Disc Copy is still unknown to the other players even to Tokio, and it seems that the disc seems to contain much-hidden power that never been shown up before.
=== Chrono Hunter (Guild) ===
The main guild that been formed by Tokio Kuryuu and Ayaka Yoshizumi/Saika Amagi due to more of Tokio’s friend join as a member of the team which led up to the creation of the guild.

The name came accidentally from Akira Yoshinori who came to talk regarding about History of Chrono Link and supposing that name will be a new name for their guild. It might annoy Akira somehow, but new guild names and goals will bringing a way to restore the network and reaching new clues that will lead to ENTIES’s plan.
Chrono Link had one mission, to find the true identity behind the mess crisis of The World R:3 which led up to its shutdown and preventing Schicksal to obtain the Chrono Core for their own goals, which means they need to get it first. Saika will be a leader, while the Field Leader will be lead by Tokio and Akira, Ninjato being appointed as mentor and advisor to the guild.
=== Schicksal ===

Each of Schicksal PC had been given a special abilities, skills, unique weapons, design, outfits and their appearance that match to their liking, thus didn't follow the rules or requirements from its game online aspect that were free to use, but that how it meant to be an illegal PC which using something that didn't fit to The World spec.
Their Powers are much stronger than hacked PCs and that's how the Twilight Knights, even Kite couldn't match against Schicksal that's how they become a most dangerous hacker group, but risking their bodies toward using Schicksal Form only causing their body reaching their limits.

The ship was survived and become Core of the Netslum in 2008 created by Helba to become a place for hackers to gather. But after the shutdown of The World R:2, Netslum has been reworked in process upgrade, but longer it process causing the separation of Grand Whale and Netslum. Thus Grand Whale became an independent ship once more and thus Saika founded the Grand Whale and making her home base for Tokio whenever Tokio will log in into the World.
The grand whale becomes home base to Chrono Hunter and Twilight Knights, which has capabilities to travel beyond hacking space, realm, and network, including Time Heist hacking of the Akashic Records, also capable to perform stealth mode which made the ship invisible to see by many players.
How Saika found the Grand Whale was by accident when she came to the unknown Lost Ground and suddenly found the ship which confirming the legendary annoying rumors were true.
Many players have speculated regarding the ship’s existence and most players called it as myth and non-existence rumor, but some players have investigated and theorized it which somehow has some hints regarding its location, and somehow possibly true.

It was already been kept save by Yun-El, although it was revealed that Davis is the one who asked her to keep it save into Blue Moon's hand to avoid CC Corp to using it, which is something that makes ENTIES and CC Corp trying to exterminate Blue Moon Home Guild to obtain the @L Drives. However, thanks to her last stand, she gives the driver to Sol and asks him to hide it to prevent them to obtain it.

The source behind Aura's powers lies within Halard's creation deep inside Aura's body, and those core holds the true power to hack, control and even manipulating the system network, also has the ability bringing creation AI of its own, and Azure Knights as the anti-virus protection. According to Posaune, that Core holds power and wish that could alter and even massively commanding the system of network, even can control all AIs and PCs, much like she holds the power of the god.
Reason behind her disappearance because her power to observe the activities in the real world, she had to hear and aware that the CC Corp had been planning to use Aura and the core that was implemented inside of her and thus their goal are something that she couldn't afford them to use her power any longer, and her disappearance and entrusting The World to the Players was very enough to keep stabilized to online game.

No one knows when it’s released in Open Beta, but Closed Beta only released for 3-7 months, and due to unknown reasons it has been shut down by him. Although the files didn’t show why Jyotaro can be hired by CC Corp with taking part as Leader of G.U. Project and why also he deciding to shut down the Akashic Line which remains a mystery at all times.
But according to some players from The World R:3, they’ve been discovered the mysterious City and Kingdom which was still to be unknown, but it sure confirmed, The Akashic Line still surface in Deep Ocean of Data after the shutdown and because of this, AIDA found their way to access the Akashic Line.
According to another classified file from CC Corp, Tokio Kuryuu taking part in the experimenting the Real Digitalization as a subject No.8.

The brainwashing virus which was programmed and designed by Geist, created by Jyotaro Amagi which kept inside power of Black Disc Copy of The World R:3 which are capable to hacking the memories of not just PCs and AI, even an Ultimate AI like Aura who using the Ultimate Protection Security system which could not stand a chance of it.
Cross Chain Virus already began in development with Geist releasing Prototype to The World R:3 during the incident of Blue Moon and Raven Guild which resulting all players members were brainwashed due to the virus which was held by ENTIES. Geist creating the virus to brainwash Aura's memories and ideal to further his project for the Real Digitalization.
The virus was responsible not about brainwashing but triggering Tokio's memories after its release toward Aura, thus his behavior, personality, and his data rate body were largely increased due to the effect.

The guardians who protecting the Labyrinth of Time which most likely is Akashic Record.
There are not Demon or Angels, even with their similar design, there are Guardian of Recorder who protecting Aura from someone who tries to get near Aura or using Aura in corrupted ways and their mission to protect the Memories Data Log of Time from those who use them for something beyond just risk.
But, due to Schicksal came, those guardian being corrupted and Chrono Link Core has disappeared, causing Schicksal using Akashic Record to travel the time and obtaining the Chrono Core and so then the time record log data remained unprotected & change which became a source of the Alteration Memories Syndrome.
Those guardians are the protector of the level operating system of Akashic Record, and putting Chrono Core need to breached them by defeating those Guardians to get past to the operating system level.
There are 4 Guardian of Recorder, such as:
* 1st Phase TIME
* 2nd Phase REALM
* 3rd Phase SPACE
* 4th Phase PARADOX
=== King of Recorder 'Chrono' ===
The King, Leader, and the protector of the Gate Seal of Chrono Core which where Aura has been kept, however, he is the oldest guardian who had to protect her for more than one decade, along with his minion which revealed to be The Guardian of Recorder, Security Ultimate AI system, and Three Azure Knight who was protecting Aura through many versions of The WORLD.
The Chrono is the guardian of the source of all Chrono Core, Chrono Link which is the true origin of all Chrono Core had been made and has been kept protecting under last Aura’s wish.
The King was used to be PC played by Human in the Era of The WORLD R:1, however as soon his player died due to cancer, he survived as a wandering AI and been taking care of by Aura as the most trusted guardian. He evolved through many countless data, repairing, reconstructing, and upgraded in many versions to survive and that’s how he becomes the most powerful AI as the King of Recorder.
It is the strongest bosses which harder to defeat, but usually, there’s only a way to defeating him.
=== The Founder of Recorder "LINK" ===
Much considered as the most mystery lore of dothack series, according to Classified CC Corp Files, The Founder of Recorder “Link” was not an AI or Bosses, but the Human who had a total concentration of DoubleWare PC.
He possesses data and power to control the memories of log data PC, including the ability to see everything, including the future and many things, however, those power are remains still unknown. But it has the power to see through PCs memories and many hidden sights have been exposed with that kind of abilities.
They can also commanding the PC, NPC, Bosses, AI and more to kneel on their feet, which proving how much those power had possessed through connection and Link toward network system, thus able to control network as well. But according to those files, they had killed The Complete DoubleWare Subject who had the highest awareness of “The Founder” data power, which could be possibly become the highest threats of all CC Corp and all Human Race.
It was considered as the forbidden Data Power to access, but the question is how Time Recording Connection still active even after they had killing “The Founder User”?
Tokio was possible to have that Power of Link due to his highest immense awareness of Doubleware abilities making possibility as he has those power. it was dubbed as Hidden Power until it revealed at The Ending E.
=== The Gate of Chrono Core ===
The Guardians of Recorder seems to be the one who takes a charge on keep protecting the Gate of Chrono Core from those who using the operational system and it seems to contain more than meets the eyes, as according to Ayaka/Saika, the operational system of Akashic Record was seal within and guarded by the Guardian of Recorder which that means needs to get through them first.
However, those who touch the door hold the secret memories of the past time which could possibly hold something that never even they had seen before.
Who’s the one's memories are still unknown, but theories had told that Tokio and his friends are not the first ones who came to Akashic Records.
=== Real Digitalization ===
The highest-rare advancement technology which allows Human to enter to the Digital World with their own Physical Body and their minds, which actually Digitalizing themselves into a Data. By entering their Actual Body into a Virtual Space making them had no effects on problems like their real-life did, such as Food, Drinking or Sleep, it was due to their mind physicology had slightly worked like data, unable to feel the condition due to their being in Data.
They won’t age due to their physical body awareness won’t do affect data as well, such as Cells, Bones, and more specifically won’t working which means that it internally stopping the process inside the body which now been replaced with how the flow works of the data.
It also had a few numbered risk, with how long the process as goes with how System evolved more will impact their lives if the system shut down or their amount data works been deleted which means that They will also get permanently deleted, which also mean to be dead and another risk is how awareness of the actual body can somehow transfigure their mind it also impacting to how their body limit goes, which means if their Real-Digitalization Body’s internal Core delete, which means they unable to return to Real World, which means they will be trapped in Data World forever unless someone who had the highest skill can enough to recreated their core data.
Another worst possibility risk lead-up to Outer Dependency Syndrome if they extending too much amount process to their Real Digitalization causing their brainwave to become much processing the irregularity which out of their moralities, and eventually causing the total loss of their form and diffusion across the virtual space, which means they will go berserk and unable to control themselves.
Although, it was slated as the classified technology which was never brought to light since late-20 Century which was classified by CyberConnect Corporation themselves until some of the staff, including Genius, had worked for Bring back idea the Real-Digitalization project, thus reborn into Immortal Dusk Project by using that technology
But technology has a high awareness level with those who had to possess the special abilities known as DoubleWare
=== DoubleWare PC ===
The special abilities which are currently the higher-level awareness of the Real Digitalization which has the ability to entering their physical body and mind into virtual space in such extended time, without being affected by Outer Dependence Syndrome or much like Secondary Effect. It is dub in the story progression known as Doubleware PC.
Unlike PCs who were bound with the Soul Digitalization which able to move freely as according to its game spec, but Doubleware PCs which bound with the Real Digitalization cannot able move freely sometimes or there can still be same as they do in the Real World, for example, they can feel hurt or injures when they fall, and this was cause of nature gravitation, and more importantly they will bound together as system which using their body to level up, not just defeating the monster, but to train their body, mind, and their surrounding.
Not much like other PCs, it has the ability to granting more freedom to use the equipment, their style, and even their job freely much they can choose in the real world without any rules from the game aspect. Its also immune toward any attack from PC, including Schicksal PC, including Brawler Rossel, is even impossible to affect them, but still can feel the injure at the same time.
But too much power and resource on Doubleware PCs with extreme risk time duration in Virtual Space, causing him to go berserk and reach Outer Dependency Syndrome unless they need to able to control their ability beforehand.
=== Beta Doubleware PC ===
It has the same case type of PC that related to Tokio's doubleware PC which they had abilities to freely roam and interact inside of digital space. However, the difference is as how it was caused due they've been forced digitalized into digitalized causing the body scans and awareness are very incompletes but could use their skills from their PC which due to their PC data been mixed toward their actual body that allows them to use their PC skills with their own flesh body.
It very significantly risks for those who aren't chosen to obtained Doubleware's ability would lead to their body flesh to its major risk as their body will eventually soon relapse and reaching the terminal stage, and so could lead into Outer Dependency Syndrome, which eventually they had 5-6 days before they reached into a terminal stage. Risking their body flesh for too much greater, will causing the syndrome could reach faster than anything could do and their body would not gonna survive within 5-6 days.
The only way to get treatment is to halting their digitalization ODS process by trapping or frozen them in the Akashic Records until they had a way to bring them back into the real world. or to transplanting Doubleware's blood data into their dummy doubleware and reprogramming their PC System to maintain permanent resistance to ODS and Digital Space impact which reforming them as Doubleware EX PC.
However, it needs a higher level of programmers or hackers like Zelkova to perform and progressing the transplantation.
=== Doubleware EX PC ===
It is the same type as Schicksal which combining the physic within the real and digital world, but this type of PC already spares enough closely with Tokio's Doubleware PC, which they can now freely roam the digital spaces without any fears toward ODS Stages. Thanks to the translation of Tokio's doubleware blood data and Reprogramming PC system has made their PC look equal with Doubleware PC which they can progress the same result as Tokio did.
However, they had restriction on their move due to their psych are still like human-like, which they unable to unlock some of their ultimate skills more fullest, which it needs to leveling up their PC in process to train their body that can be useful in digital space without hindering his body reaction, however, it needs to take time before they can master it.
With Zelkova reprogramming their PC and combining those data with Doubleware EX PC will able to unrestricted few of the moves they had previously as PC, with another addition that they can now freely roam toward the digital online environment. The rest is how they need to improve and repower up their powers to be able to use even in the Human body. Those who had blood data with Tokio's after transplantation could felt Tokio's emotion, movement, reaction, and more, including the ability to share some of Tokio's memory and share something that very inhuman well to connect with.
However, Doubleware EX PC also has level highest restriction and those who were bound breaking the limit for using the ultimate Doubleware EX form will causing higher strain to their body and also impacting their real body and therefore will ultimately paralyze their body completely if person using it second time when they already reaching its limit which will be no hope for recovery or any necessary fixing their PC has no hope to recover its paralyze.
=== Original Doubleware PC ===
The original of all Doubleware PC which is a very rarest type PC which is also the real version of all many forms of Doubleware and Real Digitalization system which is said to be the rarest type of PC which was something that never found before.
Real version is said to be able permanently had resistance toward consequences of nature law and Outer Dependence Syndrome also the original will able to freely commanding the ODS and has ability freely to travel toward digital spaces and has transcended their bodies ability like a PC without any consequences also bounded with one ability which LINK is special abilities allow them to transpire and see their PC memories and also had boundaries to control the combat environment completely without any flaws.
They also can freely roam and run in with easiest gravity situation, also can fastly regenerate its body PC and also has various ultimate attacks, speed, agility, and defense which unable to feel hurt anything and continue to fight without any side-effects of their PC and freely without any consequences even restriction.
But the only way to reach the real level, the PC and Human have to make an ultimate sacrifice which means they have to abandon their emotion, feelings, heart, and their humanity to become a true doubleware and highest possible chance that they will become soulless without any remorse, regrets, and emotions any of it, this something that Doubleware PC should never to obtain it. To fully activate the true doubleware PC, they have to receive many injures as many of it they need it or be killed which causing their emotion to relapse more and causing their lack of emotion and fully activate it.
Tokio was revealed to be True Doubleware due to be able to use his ability to read PC's memories, but the reason he didn't fully activate its true ability because he still has emotions and feelings. 
=== Soul Digitalization ===
When you log into the online game using the VR your psychologic mind will able to relieve pain from the online world and this is how the soul digitalization works which transfering their soul through their VR into the digital online world by creating and using the PC physically to lived in Online environment.
The physics of players will be much PC likes which player freely using skills and power from the game online spec without impacting the player's body in the real world, and player freedom to do like leveling up with enhancing their skills which had been received from the Game spec. Additionally, they can communicate themselves as a human did, but when outside online seen the screen which only seen as chat which players communicating through the chat or voice chat, which how their minds controlling their PC.
But, if PC been destroyed with damaging their soul will lead up their condition into a coma as their consciousness and mind been separated from their body which putting their body to sleep with his mind been unconsciousness in coma state, and this has lot happens in the past incident during Pluto Again, AIDA outbreak, and Third Network Crisis.
New Case in the world R:3 with ENTIES appear as the legendary PKK & Hackers using the deadly hack skills that which was very inhuman and lead-up to be known as the Eternal Lost one, which putting heavily damaged to their minds brain which causing the players died in the real world or making separation completely which creating a new selfs identity minds in the real world, while the mind old selves who've been separated will spend living as a wandering AI, which this pretty much case with the King of Recorder "Chrono".
=== Immortal Dusk ===
The secret classified project was Designed by Jyotaro Amagi and Genius to further their research for The Real Digitalization, which their goals to digitalize all populations of the world.
In hope that goals become major responsible behind Schicksal doing, which Genius was the one behind that plan to obtain Chrono Core to outstand their own will to using Aura, the Ultimate AI for Real-Digitalization.
