Whitepaper
Stake, Steal, PVP. Join us and discover the beautiful creatures in this world.
All of these details are subject to change before launch.
Discover something wild!
We have discovered a new species of beings reining from the unmapped corners of the universe called Etherians. We've studied the ones we could find and learned that they wield enormous power. Some can steal the flames of the sun, some can bend metal, others can bend minds. There is only one constant, they hate one another. The ones that we've discovered so far belong to one of 5 elemental types related to their domain of origin. These are Sun, Ocean, Life, Death, and Astral. Each of these elements has been torn into factions that are in a perpetual war. Will you find an etherian? Will you join a faction? Will you dominate your enemies?
Where are we?
We have traveled the universe to find a hypothesized crystal power source but instead, we found etherians. We affectionately named this planet the World of Ether. Here most of the etherians can be discovered but not all of them. Some remain hidden in other dimensions or traversing the coldness of space.
How To Find One.
Our scientists have managed to capture a small population. We are now selling them to study how they act in the wild, also the scientists want to make a profit. They're smart not stupid. Only 9999 etherian NFTS are going to be sold, each is a hand painted piece of art that allows you to participate in this game as well as in future games.*
Rarity Spread.
Some are rarer than others.
- 60% are common
- 30% are uncommon
- 9.9% are rare
- 0.1% are legendary
- 1% are gold
Staking for Tokens.
These etherians can be staked to receive tokens for its respective type. For example, staking an Ocean etherian grants Ocean tokens.
Your etherians can be staked for several hours. Staking etherians grants tokens but you will have to wait past a certain duration to withdraw the full value. You can however, immediately withdraw but you will receive a hefty penalty tax. This tax goes back into the system via the token vault. (This is a DAO based pool, more on that later.) You will also be on a small cooldown. If you wait the full duration you will receive 90% of the tokens (rounded down). The extra 10% is taken as a tax and put inside of the token vault as well. There are 4 rarities: Common Uncommon Rare and Legendary. Rares stake for more then common and uncommon and Legendaries stake for the most.
Before you get an etherian you have to select a faction. Each faction is represented by one of the base etherian types. Belonging to a faction guarantees that your etherians will always be a member of that type. If you are a Death faction player your new etherians will always be Death etherians. An etherians type can be changed but you'll have to use tokens to do so. This makes selecting a faction a very important decision for players.
- ☀️ Sun - The Preservation Faction. Great for players who want to mitigate risk.
- 🌊 Ocean - The Exchange Faction. Great for players who want type diversity.
- 🌲 Life - The Creation Faction. Great for players who want to ramp up the etherian population.
- 💀 Death - The Aggression Faction. Great for players who love PVP and quick rewards.
- 🔮 Astral - The Upgrade Faction. Great for players who want to min-max and breed super rares.
The faction you choose gives you a slight bonus to vesting that type of etherian. If you belong to the death faction and you vest a death etherian you'll receive an extra 25% of death tokens rounded down.
PVP.
Why stake when you can steal? While you are securing your staked tokens a member of any opposing faction can attack you. In order to attack you they have to risk some of their death tokens. Depending on the number of death tokens they risk determines how much of the tokens they can steal from you. They can only steal what you are going to gain from your stake. Each etherian has an attack power. Using the on chain stats of your etherians vs theirs a winner is chosen. If the attacker wins he gets a percentage of the tokens you were set to receive. Taxes apply here and a percentage of their winnings goes to the vault. If the attacker loses the defender gets the death tokens the attacker risked. Again this gets taxed and a small portion goes to the vault, initially this is 10%.
Bully Tax.
This feature will be discussed at a later date.
Token Functionality.
Each token has a functionality in the game. When each token is used it returns to the vault.
- Sun tokens can be used to increase your defense during a stake.
- Ocean tokens can be used to switch the type of an etherian.
- Life tokens can be used to birth new etherians.
- Death tokens can be used to attack other players.
- Astral tokens can be used to increase the power of etherians or create one with a specific rarity.
The game starts when the 9999 NFTs stop selling, either via a sell out or when we decide to stop.
What Early Buyers Get.
In order to grow the economy fast the first couple of egg buyers will receive a number of Death Sun and Ocean tokens. This is to start PVP immediately, defending immediately and an etherian type change immediately.
Vault Mechanics.
This feature will be discussed at a later date.
Faction Mechanics.
Don't go alone take this... group of murderous bastards to have your back. - Members of a faction can donate Sun or Death tokens to their faction. This will increase the defense or attacker prize for their faction in total for 24 hours. Remember members of a faction cannot attack people in their own faction so there is a large reason to stick together and look out for one another. Each faction will have their own channel in discord so they can make plans together.
Discovery Mechanics.
Be brave and discover the unknown. - The first person to discover an etherians is granted a gold version of that creature. These creatures have a wicked power increase and are stronger than other ones. Whitelist purchases are not credited for discovering etherians.
Powering up.
Consume, Breed, Grow - Each etherian can consume astral crystals to power up. This will increase its power by a percentage. This scales infinitely, this means if you feed a common enough it could potentially be stronger than a legendary.
