been a while since ZZZ got a CRT, but i'm back with a relatively big one, with the approval of the game's fellow supporters

the aim of this CRT is to establish ether energy as a proper power system for the verse, using the contents of this sandbox. this is mainly so that we have a clearer, more proper way of displaying the multitude of different abilities ether has for both the pre-existing and future pages that will be made for the verse. this sandbox/power system is split up into three categories :

1. ether
this is primarily just the general applications of ether found throughout the series. characters with the ether element are able to use these abilities offensively, and all agents in-game have an inherent resistance to the effects of ether as a result of their ether aptitudes. this affects the following :

characters who can manipulate and inflict ether corruption onto enemies

characters who can utilize yunkui summit's mystic arts techniques

2. ethereal physiology
this section is meant to categorize the various abilities that come with the physiology of ethereals, the main enemies within the world of zenless zone zero. as of now, we only have one ethereal page, that being the dead end butcher, but it's page can be updated with this, and subsequent future ethereal profiles can also have this physiology tied to them.

3. sacrifice physiology
this section is meant to categorize the various abilities that come with the physiology of sacrifices, which are essentially stronger variants of ethereals with the unique benefit of retaining their consciousness and sense of self. as of now, we do not have any sacrifice profiles up for the page yet, but these abilities can be applied to them in the future when they get made.
 
Very good job with the sandbox.

I think this one should be just “Temporal Restoration”, so you don't need to put Limited Time Manipulation there.

It's on the Restoration page:
  • Temporal Restoration: It involves the ability to manipulate time or revert objects to a previous state. Users can rewind the effects of damage, effectively restoring objects to their undamaged condition. Temporal restoration can be used to reverse the flow of time on localized areas or specific objects, reverting them to a pristine state.

Everything else should be fine.
 
The page looks pretty good; I just want some clarification on the following:
  • Miasma: It says miasma is a unique form of Ether- shouldn't it get its own section rather than merging it with regular Ether?
  • Pain Manipulation: Doesn't sound like pain manipulation, just sounds painful.
 
Miasma: It says miasma is a unique form of Ether- shouldn't it get its own section rather than merging it with regular Ether?
i was contemplating making a designated section for it but the effects between the two are sort of interchangeable. miasma is a unique form of ether that appears specifically within lemnian hollow, but outside of it primarily being in the form of a liquid, it doesn't have anything else that i would say makes it stand out enough from regular ether to warrant getting it's own section imo. both ether and miasma can affect memories, mess with minds, mess with perception, etc etc.

Pain Manipulation: Doesn't sound like pain manipulation, just sounds painful.
would the ability to inflict painful symptoms like those via ether corruption not qualify as pain manipulation? i was kinda under the assumption that it would but if it doesn't i'd be fine with removing it

Fair enough

Hmmm, as the page is written now, yeah, I suppose you're right.

In that case, I don't have any issues with the page (y)
 
@TWILIGHT-OP has liked my request on his wall, which mean he will come soon, we just need to wait lel
