## Stages

The [Protagonist] Trait was unlocked in 3 stages: 1st Stage(Ch: 628), 2nd Stage(Ch: 695-696), 3rd Stage(724-725) Evoloution(Ch:1881)

3rd Stage : [Save Point],[Chosen One],[Protagonist’s Bookmark] (Ch.724-25)

### 1st Stage

The first stage unlocks the skills: [Eyes of Truth], [Photographic Memory], [Memorable Visage], and [Blind Luck].

#### Eyes of Truth

Glance upon the many things in the vast galaxies as their secrets are laid bare to your eyes.

#### Memorable Visage

As the protagonist, you begin to take the central role wherever you go, your visage being remembered by all who lay eyes upon you as you automatically give out a favorable impression, as well as garner prominent attention from your enemies.

#### Blind Luck

Fortunate things just seem to happen to you out of nowhere. You could just be walking across the street and find a million dollars by the roadside.

### 2nd Stage

The second stage unlocks the skills [Plot Armor], [Chosen Extras], and [Deus Ex Machina].

#### Plot Armor

As a true main character, one must have a tool that allows him to keep his life in any situation! Yet to achieve this in reality is extremely hard. This ability allows the holder of the Protagonist Trait to gain genuine the [Plot Armor Status Effect] for a period of 1 hour, with the skill having a cool down of 21 days (decreased from 30 days in Ch.725) purely because of its reality-altering effects. With the status effect active, the user will not lose their life as their body and soul gain the [Invulnerable] effect that prevents all sources of damage.

#### Chosen Extras

As with any Protagonist, there must be side characters that add something to your journey. They cannot all be left behind and forgotten like weaklings that contribute nothing. This ability allows you to currently choose 5 Extras who will be granted the [Enhanced Growth Perk] that allows them to progress through Realms at a speed comparable to the Protagonist, +100% Increased Loot Effect when defeating enemies, +100% Increase to their Comprehension, and a Thrice increase to their Luck.

#### Deus Ex Machina

At the most critical and important juncture as the life of the Protagonist is in peril, casting this ability will bring forth an unexpected power, being, or event that will save them from the seemingly hopeless situation. As with any skill capable of affecting universal rules, there is a 21 day (decreased from 30 days in Ch.725) cooldown after every use.

### 3rd Stage

The third stage unlocks the skills [Save Point], [Chosen One], and [Protagonist’s Bookmark].

#### Chosen One

The Protagonist is meant for something greater, and they must play a central role in the designated area they currently reside in. The current holder of the Protagonist Trait is in the Dark Universe, thus in this area, they will find that their movements are inadvertently mixed with the major forces of the universe as they always end up the center of all problems...as well as the solutions. With this ability, as long as the holder of the Protagonist Trait doesn’t fall off a cliff and die- all they would need is time as they somehow become embroiled into every major event as they play the role of the chosen one, the singular character that will always be there to prevent disasters and save the day.

#### Save Point

The Protagonist can utilize this ability at any point in time, allowing them to establish their Origin and Soul into a unique Spacetime Continuum that they can return to if their life is ever at the point of being taken away. Right before the time of death, this skill will automatically activate if there is a Save Point available, preventing the death of the Protagonist as they are brought back in time. Aside from the automatic activation right before death, the Protagonist can also choose to return to a previous Save Point at any time they wish. This ability has a cool down of 30 days.

#### Protagonist’s Bookmark

A true protagonist has their trials, but they also have their moments where they shine with blinding power. To further create a truly powerful Protagonist, the last ability of this Trait makes the holder of it capable of ’Bookmarking’ the characters that they previously came in contact with. To those Bookmarked, the Protagonist can descend onto their body without their knowledge as he becomes able to assimilate into them for a period of 1 minute. In this period of time, the Protagonist can choose to focus on a specific area such as Experiences, Laws, Realm Progression, Daos...everything that the bookmarked character has accomplished as the Protagonist can rapidly raise their law progression or learn a new law, gains years of experience, enhance their understandings of Realms, enhance their understanding of a current Dao, or step on the path of a brand new Dao that the bookmarked character is adept on. Only a previously met character that the Protagonist saw with their own eyes can be bookmarked, and a 30 day cool down exists before the ability can be utilized again.

## Evolution

**<Protagonist's Symphony>**:: As a Protagonist, fanfare follows you wherever you go. During the events throughout your life, a symphony shall begin to play to convey the gravity or wonders of the current situation- each time with differing effects. During tough battles, a symphony unique to you shall begin resonating across the domain space you are in as your enemies are granted the Demoralized Side Character Debuff that lowers their Damage and Defense Values, Resource Generation, Vitality Regeneration, and Cast and Movement speed by 25%. Meanwhile, allies are granted the Chosen Extra Buff as they attain 25% increased Damage and Defense Values, Resource Generation, Vitality Regeneration, and Cast and Movement Speed. When constructing Daos, Edicts, or other concepts, a Symphony unique to such an event will play as the speed of construction and success of a new concept will increase. The uses and applications of the Protagonist's Symphony are many as effects will continue to differ depending on the situation....

**<In the Darkest Hour>**:: When your True Vitality Values reach below 25%, your strength begins to progressively rise and only increase exponentially the closer you are to death. Even the formation of concepts, understanding of concepts, and epiphanies have a higher likelihood of occurring. A Protagonist can be under the threat of death, but he must never fall. Keep on fighting! Make a breakthrough amidst tough battles!

**<I Am the Main Character>**:: As the director of your Destiny, Karma, Fate, and Fortune, you have gained the capability to see possible paths of your Hero’s Journey. In the path of a Protagonist, there are many stages passed until they attain utmost providence. They shall pass through the stages of {A Call to Adventure}, {Aid and Cheats}, {From the Known to the Unknown}, {Challenges and Ordeals}, {Point of Death and Rebirth}, {Transformation}, {Ultimate Boon}, {Return}, and {Master of Path}. These stages can be progressed sequentially, or you could be within multiple stages at once. You have grasped greater control of the stages you go through as you can gaze into the possible pathways of your current stage(s) at the expense of the Essence of Reality. The cost is unknown and can vary depending on the paths you are trying to see and the existences involved within these paths. A great level of control exists when gazing into possible paths as each one is a possible path that could unfold in your journey depending on your own choices. The cost of essence will only be known after you gaze at your current stage and seek to see the possibilities that lay within it. Choose your path wisely, for even Heroes have fallen under the Point of Death and Rebirth as they never complete their journey…
