- The Path To Growing Stronger!:
- There are several stages in the growth process of a player. There are 5 ranks that each can be identified by a letter.
- C Rank:
- The new adventurer has become exposed to real dangers and real battles. By now they have received a baptism by strife unlocking their next stage of growth. They are now realizing levels of powers previously unattainable however they still have far to go to reach the pinnacle of power.
- B Rank:
- The adventurer has ascended to a new level of power. Those who have obtained this rank are the line where common folk might describe them as "monsters" because of their power. They are now capable of feats that just seem completely impossible to the common man. However the adventurer themselves by now have likely come to understand the extent of their potential for growth and depending on the person may start developing power fantasies at this point.
- A Rank:
- You are officially dope. Your skill in terms of aethrion usage amazes even yourself at times. It is hard for you to go a day without breaking something very big. This is the part where you can start smart mouthing monsters 100x your size
- S Rank:
- You are officially badass. Prepare for fisticuffs with the space pope because you are now in the big leagues. At this level you are likely to become the stuff of legends and a major player on the world stage. Mooks beware, even an army matters little to you.
- X Rank:
- You now sit at the pinnacle of power. You are the strongest there is. God may pick a fight with you one day over this. You are now equipped for full scale saving the world, you no longer interrupt the ritual that summons the doomsday creature, you let the ritual finish so you can kill it with your bare hands. The aethrion kowtows to you.

- Once enough EXP has been gathered, you can apply for an examination.
How to: Make a thread in the Examination Forum with a list of all the finished quests you have done so the amount of EXP can be calculated and evaluated. How the exam happens, is at the discretion of the Captain. Some Captain's may assign a quest to complete in the Examination Forum, others may have you spar with one of your crew mates, etc., as long as the process of examination (either completely or through links) can be found in the Examination Forum and double-checked by staff members.- Examinations:
- B to A to S to X Exams
When going from B to S rank, you are required to have an exam with your Captain or either the Captain (equivalents) of your crew.
S Exams
Captain (equivalents) can participate in S rank exams, but they cannot PROCTOR the exam. The Captain also has to be there for that exam.
X Rank Exam
Will always first be earned by the Captain of the crew before other members of the crew can earn it. This exam is harsh, and while it is one person's exam, it is quite common for the whole crew to be allowed to participate (only for this exam).
