EXAMPLE: Early Expert
-The expert is very handy at their craft and can be seen as an authority figure in the subject or activity but, they are not the best compared to other experts. On average, they are less than the median (or half) of everyone who has access to the same knowledge or skill.
EXAMPLE: Pinnacle Beginner
-The Beginner just started their long journey of learning and practice but, the promise they show is absolutely incredible. In terms of skill, they are already above the starting line. The only thing holding someone at the peak of any craft is the foundational power or knowledge needed to truly enter the next stage.
EXAMPLE: Modest Enlightened
-An enlightened individual is someone who has reached the peak of their craft and can reduce everything they have learned to a single quote, gesture, or even a thoughtful notion. Sadly, among the enlightened, someone who is only of modest status finds themselves sandwiched between the newly Enlightened and those who strive for more even beyond and within.
EXAMPLE: Variable Master
-Those who reach this state at any stage are usually destined for great things, regardless of the effort put in. A Master who has a variable understanding of their craft finds themselves within a handful of individuals who have deciphered the truth of their study. They are among the few who can add something new to the field or can personalize the sum of their knowledge into a personalized thing.
EXAMPLE: ???
UN-QUANTIFIABLE by the current understanding. By that, it's likely that the person's understanding, and level of utilization is so far beyond bounds that it borders omniscience. That, or it's so frighteningly bad that they are legitimately less than the lowest grade of understanding. And finally, it's possible that both achieved at the same time.
___THE RULES ___
1) When MODIFIERS are applied to a CLASS title, the rank refers to the average quality and quantity of all the skills within the CLASS.
2) When applied to a SKILL, any MODIFIERS refer to the proficiency at which one can use the principal energy type, skill, or techniques of the original power type
MAX= Variable Enlightened: The physical limit on what any physical being is capable of even with a reality warping protagonist lifestyle. It doesn't mean omniscience, omnipresence, or omnipotence for any particular thing. It suggests peak theoretical or practical understanding without error. The MAX of every species is different, even the same species at much lesser degrees.
Unbound= The complete unraveling of ones being, which means one's potential is completely unpackaged and allowed to grow, mentally, physically, and spiritually forming a HOLY TRINITY (Of a sort).
