Regeneration

Regeneration is defined as the ability to automatically heal injuries over a certain period of time. Its effectiveness is determined by three factors, each of which have their own tiers:

## Potency of Regeneration

### For living beings

#### **Tier 5**

Regeneration of not usually fatal injuries

* ***Tier 5-C***: Regenerating minor cuts, bruises, or abrasions.
* ***Tier 5-B***: Regenerating larger wounds or gashes which may prove legitimately impairing or fatal through blood loss or infection.
* ***Tier 5-A***: Regenerating dismembered individual limbs or more extreme wounds.

Tier 3: Fatal

#### **Tier 4**

Regeneration from fatalities

* ***Tier 4-C***: Regeneration from majorly fatal dismemberment like the torso or head.
* ***Tier 4-B***: Regeneration from explicit mass dismemberment of the body into individual body-parts/organs.
* ***Tier 4-A***: Regeneration from a drop of blood or piece of tissue.

Tier 2: Microscopic

#### **Tier 3**

Regeneration from dismemberment on the particle level

* ***Tier 3-C***: Regenerating from fundamental cells or organic molecules.
* ***Tier 3-B***: Regenerating from more fundamental molecules.
* ***Tier 3-A***: Regenerating from mere atoms, ions, isotopes, or diatomic structures

Tier 1: Existential

#### **Tier 2**

Regeneration from less-than-nanoscopic destruction

* ***Tier 2-C***: Regenerating from larger subatomic particles such as baryons
* ***Tier 2-B***: Regenerating from macro-quantum-level destruction of bosons and quarks
* ***Tier 2-A***: Regenerating from quantum-level destruction of quantum strings and foam.

#### **Tier 1**

Regeneration of fundamental aspects of your being

* ***Tier 1-C***: Capable of regenerating even if all of your matter is destroyed.
* ***Tier 1-B***: Capable of regenerating even if multiple (but not all) aspects of your existence are destroyed.
* ***Tier 1-A***: Capable of regenerating even if every single aspect of your existence is destroyed.

### For Machines or Technology

#### **Tier 5**

Regeneration of not usually fatal injuries

* ***Tier 5-C***: Regenerating minor scratches or dents
* ***Tier 5-B***: Regenerating larger damage which may prove legitimately impairing or dysfunctioning for the machine
* ***Tier 5-A***: Regenerating dismembered or broken off components

#### **Tier 4**

Regeneration from fatalities

* ***Tier 4-C***: Regeneration from majorly vital components like the main engine or reactor
* ***Tier 4-B***: Regeneration from explicit mass dismemberment of the body into individually broken parts
* ***Tier 4-A***: Regeneration from a small scrap of metal or piece of machinery

#### **Tier 3**

Regeneration from dismemberment on the particle level

* ***Tier 3-C***: Regenerating from molecular level metallic debris
* ***Tier 3-B***: Regenerating from more fundamental molecules.
* ***Tier 3-A***: Regenerating from mere atoms, ions, isotopes, or diatomic structures.

#### **Tier 2**

Regeneration from less-than-nanoscopic destruction

* ***Tier 2-C***: Regenerating from larger subatomic particles such as baryons
* ***Tier 2-B***: Regenerating from macro-quantum-level destruction of bosons and quarks
* ***Tier 2-A***: Regenerating from quantum-level destruction of quantum strings and foam.

#### **Tier 1**

Regeneration of fundamental aspects of your being

* ***Tier 1-C***: Capable of regenerating even if all of your matter is destroyed.
* ***Tier 1-B***: Capable of regenerating even if multiple (but not all) aspects of your existence are destroyed.
* ***Tier 1-A***: Capable of regenerating even if every single aspect of your existence is destroyed.

## Scope of Regeneration

Despite the potency of the regeneration, it might be that the character can only regenerate from a specific area

* Local: Specific parts of the body can be regenerated, but other parts might still be susceptible to damage which cannot be regenerated
* Bodywide: Any part of the body can experience damage and regenerate from it
* Cross-Universal (Macrocosmic to Type II multiversal): Able to regenerate one’s body, including incarnations or selves across all the Type II multiverse
* Cross-Timeline (Type III): Able to regenerate one’s body, including incarnations or selves across all the Type III multiverse
* Cross-Vacuum (String): Able to regenerate one’s body, including incarnations or selves across all infinite multiverses
* Multi-Layered (Ordinal/Layer): Able to regenerate one’s body, higher infinite interpretations of oneself existing on different layers of infinity

## Speed of Regeneration

In spite of the scope and potency of regeneration, it might yet still take time for the regeneration to kick in or complete

* More than a few days
* In one or two days
* In a few hours
* In a few minutes
* In a few seconds
* In less than a few seconds
* Instant
