“The World of the White Wolves”

1st Division: Elite Unit

These are Echo's people, the crème de la crème. Echo, the commander, is an impressive woman. She has mastered the Sandan resonance like few others and is on her way to mastering the Shinsei resonance. Additionally, she has mastered the Kōtai resonance, the physical strength. With her Radiant Orbs, energy waves that she creates, she can rip the ground from beneath your feet.

•Radiant Orbs: Echo can create spheres of pure energy, using them both offensively and defensively. These orbs are extremely fast and can serve as projectiles to hit opponents or as shields to block attacks.

•Speed: Echo's speed is legendary. Her resonance enhances her natural reflexes, making her a lightning-fast opponent in close combat.

•Combat Style: Echo fights with two pistols as well as in close combat. Her skills are explosive and precise. She combines speed, strength, and precision to overwhelm her opponents. She is a master of surprise attacks and can quickly switch between different combat styles.

Solis is Echo's right-hand man. He is a Nidan and also masters the Kōtai resonance. His Solaris Warden technique generates shields and light explosions, allowing him to block your attacks and blind you at the same time. He is like an unassailable wall.

•Solaris Warden: Solis can use his resonance to generate shields of pure light to protect himself from attacks or create dazzling light explosions to disorient and confuse his enemies.

•Light Spirit: In moments of extreme exhaustion or danger, Solis can create a "Light Spirit" – a kind of hologram made of pure light that simulates his movements in battle. This light spirit can not only touch enemies but also be nearly invisible due to the refraction of light and Solis' extreme speed. The spirit isn't real, but it confuses enemies and provides strategic advantages.

•Combat Style: Solis acts as a defender, covering Echo's attacks and using his light explosions to keep enemies in check. He is a master of defense but can also fight offensively, using light bolts as weapons.

2nd Division: Tactical Specialists

Avaris is the commander of the second division. A Sandan, naturally. He masters the Seishin resonance, the mental power. With Time Fracture, he can manipulate time. You might think he's a wizard, but he's highly dangerous. He can influence your perception of time, slow you down, or speed you up. He is a master of strategic thinking.

•Time Fracture: Avaris can manipulate the perception of time, speeding himself up, slowing his enemies down, or briefly stopping time altogether.

•Strategy: Avaris is a master strategist. He uses his abilities to outmaneuver and confuse his opponents or give himself a tactical advantage.

•Combat Style: Avaris is a strategist. He uses his powers to overwhelm his opponents and draw them into traps. He is a master of planning and execution and always stays one step ahead.

Lyn is Avaris' right-hand. She is also a Nidan and masters the Seishin resonance. Her Phantom Whispers are treacherous. She manipulates sound waves to confuse or deceive your senses. She is a master of intelligence gathering.

•Phantom Whispers: Lyn uses her resonance to manipulate sound waves, leading her enemies into illusions, distorting their perception, or disorienting them. At an advanced level, she can project her own voice through these illusions to influence or panic her foes.

•Combat Style: Lyn disorients her opponents and creates chaos, allowing Avaris to strike decisively. Their collaboration is a perfect combination of deception and precision.

3rd Division: Reconnaissance and Intelligence Gathering

Selene is the commander of the third division. A Sandan. She masters the Shizen resonance, the elemental power. With Astral Rift, she can transform into an astral projection. She can travel to places unreachable by others and gather valuable information. She is a master of stealth and secrecy.

•Astral Rift: Selene can create an astral projection of herself using her resonance, allowing her to travel to places others cannot reach. She uses this ability to gather information, spy on her enemies, or gain a strategic advantage.

•Stealth: Selene is a master of stealth. She can become invisible, move silently, and conceal her location.

•Combat Style: Selene is a strategic fighter. She uses her abilities to gather intelligence, staying one step ahead of her enemies. She often operates from the shadows, waiting for the right moment to strike.

Kael is Selene's right-hand. A Nidan who masters the Undō resonance. He can enhance his swords with spectral energy, making his attacks fast and nearly impossible to stop. He is a master of close combat and acrobatics.

•Spectral Blades: Kael can imbue his swords with spectral energy, causing them to inflict more damage and confuse his enemies. His swords are faster and less predictable.

•Combat Style: Kael is an aggressive fighter who excels in both close and ranged combat. He uses his abilities to surprise his enemies and keep them in a constant state of uncertainty.

4th Division: Outsiders

This is my division. I don't have a right hand because I don't trust anyone who doesn't meet my expectations. I'm looking for someone who fulfills my criteria: someone strong but also smart, someone who can learn to master resonance.

We've taken a different path, and we need people who will learn to control their resonance.

But this, my boy, is the world of the White Wolves. Here we work together to achieve our goals. Everyone must learn to understand resonance to harness its full power for the fight against the Blood Chain. They are our greatest enemies. But we will defeat them. It's only a matter of time.

Scene: Rioji Tests Kyro

"You've had a taste of the White Wolves' world, Kyro. And you've proven that you've got potential. But the real challenge starts now. If you want to train in my division, you need to learn how to work with others.

Here are my people:

•Zayne: He's sixteen but an old hand at this. Though he's only a Shodan, he has mastered Seishin resonance. He is the tactical mind of the division, influencing the battlefield with his mental abilities.

•Utak: The little guy is only thirteen, but he's as strong as an ox. He has mastered Kōtai resonance. His Tremor Smash technique can make the ground tremble.

•Lynora: She's eighteen, a Nidan, and masters Seishin resonance, the mental power. She's responsible for gathering information. She's got an eye on you, Kyro. Be careful.

I don't have a right hand. I don't need someone who just follows orders. I'm looking for someone who exceeds my expectations. Someone who's not only strong but also smart and able to learn. Someone ready to master resonance.

If you want to stay in my division, you have to prove to me that you're worth it.

But this resonance… your Shinsei resonance… I've never seen anything like it before. So much potential. So much power. It could be your greatest strength, but it could also be your greatest weakness.

And trust me, I will exploit every mistake. I will challenge you like never before. I will test your limits. You will learn what it means to push beyond your maximum.

Rioji looks at Kyro with a cold, penetrating gaze. He senses the power within him but also recognizes his youth and inexperience. His goal is to test Kyro, to break him, to show him that he is far from ready to change the world.

"You're here because you're special, Kyro. You have something unique inside of you. And now, it's time for you to discover your true strength. You're here to find the truth. To change the world."

"But before you think you've figured it all out, let me tell you something: The world we live in is much bigger than you can imagine. The Blood Chain isn't our only enemy. We're part of a much larger battle. There are forces more powerful than you can imagine. Forces that could turn the world upside down."

"And there are secrets still hidden – things that could change the world, truths we must uncover."

"Are you ready, Kyro? Are you ready to break the chains?"

"This world is not for the weak, Kyro," Rioji says. "If you want to train with me, you have to prove that you're strong enough to break the chains. You must be willing to use your abilities. You must be ready to fight.

And don't think you can do it all with just your raw talent," Rioji adds, his voice cold and filled with disdain. "You have a certain spark inside of you, but you're still a rough diamond. I will show you that you're nowhere near ready to break the chains."

"No one gets a place in my division unless I recognize them myself. I will challenge you, Kyro, like no one ever has. I will uncover your weaknesses, test your potential. I will push you to your limits. You will learn what it's like to truly push yourself to the end of your strength."

"And if you manage to overcome the challenges, maybe then I'll see you as a true White Wolf. But if you fail… then you're no more than a piece of wood trying to fight against the sun."
